00:00:12Where's Dorian?

00:00:14Maybe he's coming any second now

00:00:16Can a husband disappears in a moment like this? He'll be here soon

00:00:21You're just going to get his mom

00:00:23Seriously, thank you, Anita

00:00:25For being here

00:00:27I'm your best friend

00:00:29I wouldn't miss this for the world

00:00:33I'm gonna go grab the doctor

00:00:46Chairman Astor, this gift just came in for you

00:00:49The CEO of Cartelier

00:00:51It's a custom cheetah brooch

00:00:53It's the purest ruby

00:00:55On the planet

00:00:57Not bad

00:01:10Dad?

00:01:12I'm about to have the baby

00:01:14What?

00:01:16Virus

00:01:17What?

00:01:19Are you really walking out on your family?

00:01:22Dad

00:01:24You were wrong about Dorian, okay?

00:01:26He doesn't care about money

00:01:28He loves me

00:01:30And I choose him

00:01:33If you walk through that gate

00:01:35You are no longer my daughter

00:01:38And you'll have nothing to do with the Astor name

00:01:41Ever again

00:01:47Even if you never call me your daughter again

00:01:50I'm still your dad

00:01:54And I love your dad

00:01:56I always will

00:01:59But I choose him

00:02:00Because our love is real dad

00:02:02And I'm gonna prove it to you

00:02:04And I'm gonna prove it to you

00:02:19Congratulations, sir

00:02:21You're gonna be your grandfather

00:02:23Dorian still rubs me the wrong way

00:02:29He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish

00:02:32Let alone a family

00:02:34Still, Irish chose him

00:02:37And now they're about to have a baby

00:02:40Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance

00:02:43Get the finest gifts money can buy

00:02:46I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty

00:02:49I guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris

00:02:57If not

00:02:59He'll have me to answer to

00:03:19Mr. Holland

00:03:20Mr. Holland, what's wrong?

00:03:21What happened?

00:03:22You sounded like you were having a heart attack

00:03:24Hurry, I need to get the Baltimore Sierra from the vault

00:03:27I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP

00:03:29You're giving that away?

00:03:31I just got word that Miss Astor

00:03:33The richest heiress on earth

00:03:34Is having a baby today

00:03:35We must congratulate it with a most spectacular gift

00:03:38If we pull this off

00:03:39We could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion

00:03:42We're talking billions, Jessica

00:03:44Billions

00:03:45Now go, run, now

00:03:49A private hospital?

00:04:05Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?

00:04:09She's burning through your money like it grows on trees

00:04:12Mom, please don't get worked up

00:04:14The doctor said Iris has placenta previa

00:04:16It's serious

00:04:18There's a real risk of bleeding

00:04:20Oh, Dorian

00:04:22Your wife's just being dramatic

00:04:24And who does she think she is?

00:04:25Some royal heiress or something?

00:04:27This is why we're bleeding money

00:04:30If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today

00:04:34Tomorrow, she's gonna wanna live in Nanny

00:04:37And then what? A private chef? A butler?

00:04:40What do I do, Mom?

00:04:42You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?

00:04:44No, not yet

00:04:45Good

00:04:47When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead

00:04:51Okay, Mom

00:04:52Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does

00:04:58Oh, my precious baby

00:05:03Iris, placenta previa is serious

00:05:06You need to rest and take it easy

00:05:07We've got you covered around the clock

00:05:10We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe

00:05:13Thank you

00:05:18Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you

00:05:21You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise

00:05:30Tessa, we're in your hair

00:05:32Look at this room

00:05:39This isn't a hospital

00:05:41She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat

00:05:45Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-laws gave birth at local clinics?

00:05:51And it only cost three grand total

00:05:54But your wife is spending two grand a night

00:05:59I don't know, Mom

00:06:01I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby

00:06:04Oh, Dorian

00:06:06Don't be stupid

00:06:08This has nothing to do with the baby

00:06:11She's flaunting

00:06:13She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite

00:06:17I warned you

00:06:19She is not as sweet as she seems

00:06:22If you keep letting her burn through your money like this

00:06:26One day you're gonna wake up with nothing left

00:06:31Then what do I do?

00:06:33Don't worry, my sweet boy

00:06:36You're gonna handle everything, okay?

00:06:38Okay

00:06:40Let's go

00:06:42Tessa, Dorian

00:06:43What were you guys talking about out there?

00:06:44Oh, actually, the doctor said the bill was due

00:06:47Do you think you could take care of that?

00:06:50Iris

00:06:51Do you have any idea what all this costs?

00:06:54A room like this runs 50, 60 grand

00:06:58Dorian busts his ass every day to support this family

00:07:02Stop blowing through his savings

00:07:06And leave this hospital immediately

00:07:10What?

00:07:12What? Leave the hospital?

00:07:14A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt

00:07:17Before the baby's even born

00:07:19Could you just think about Dorian for once?

00:07:24Tessa

00:07:26I love him

00:07:28I'm not wasting anyone's money

00:07:30I chose this hospital because I have placentia previa

00:07:33I could bleed out

00:07:34And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency

00:07:37I'm not here for comfort

00:07:39I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe

00:07:43Dorian

00:07:45I know how hard you work

00:07:48Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable and then we can transfer, I promise

00:07:55Son, don't fall for that

00:07:58We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight

00:08:01If she drags this out, it's gonna be thousands more down the drain

00:08:05Tessa, this is between my husband and I

00:08:08Please just give us a moment

00:08:09I'm his mother

00:08:11Dorian's opinion is my opinion

00:08:13Now come on

00:08:15We are leaving this hospital

00:08:17Ow!

00:08:20Dorian

00:08:26Dorian

00:08:27Oh

00:08:30Iris

00:08:32Let's just go to a local clinic

00:08:33Raising a kid is expensive

00:08:34We need to save where we can

00:08:36To save where we can

00:08:37That's right

00:08:38We're not the bad guys here

00:08:40Tons of women give birth at local hospitals

00:08:42But you are a greedy little leach

00:08:46And I'm not letting you bleed my son dry

00:08:49What do you think he is?

00:08:51Are you a personal ATM?

00:08:53I'm not trying to waste anyone's money

00:08:55I have a low lying placenta

00:08:57And if something goes wrong, the BB could die.

00:09:01Don't go soft on her. Let her play you.

00:09:04Every pregnant woman has complications.

00:09:07Just because it's risky doesn't mean it's going to happen.

00:09:10If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest of your life.

00:09:15You're right, Mom. Thanks for always having my back.

00:09:19Mm-hmm. I'm here for you.

00:09:21Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you, Iris.

00:09:29If you want to stay in this hospital, fine.

00:09:32But you're going to pay for it yourself.

00:09:35I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you waste one more cent of my son's money.

00:09:44Something's wrong with me. I think you called an entrepreneur.

00:09:48No. Do not take one more step.

00:09:51Until she agrees to pay for it herself.

00:09:54I'll see Iris first.

00:10:20You wait here.

00:10:25Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

00:10:30Dorian, what happened to you?

00:10:33Okay.

00:10:34I'll pay for it.

00:10:40Hi.

00:10:41Could you settle the bill with us, please?

00:10:44See?

00:10:45She had the cash all along.

00:10:48Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.

00:10:55If she doesn't feel the pressure now, she's never going to know what it takes to keep a family afloat.

00:11:00You're right, Mom. You always are.

00:11:03You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.

00:11:06That's right.

00:11:07Very precious baby boy.

00:11:09Ooh.

00:11:09I'm sorry, ma'am. Your card was declined. You're short about $20,000.

00:11:14If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.

00:11:23This is everything I have left.

00:11:26Is she really broke?

00:11:28It doesn't make any sense.

00:11:30With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.

00:11:32Yeah, well, that's because I cover all the household bills.

00:11:36And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff.

00:11:39Vitamins, supplements, hospital visits.

00:11:41I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.

00:11:43What on earth has she been through these past three years?

00:11:48Dorian, can you just...

00:11:49Please, just consider it alone.

00:11:51Just...

00:11:53I swear, I'll be back.

00:11:55Absolutely not.

00:11:57Don't fall for this.

00:11:59Every wife stashes emergency cash.

00:12:02Did you see how she pulled that card out like it was nothing?

00:12:05Do you think it's her only one?

00:12:07She's still hiding money.

00:12:09I know she is.

00:12:16Dorian, please.

00:12:17Please just help me pay the $20,000.

00:12:19I swear, I'll be back.

00:12:22Don't fall for her act.

00:12:24I know what you're playing at.

00:12:25You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.

00:12:29And then you're just going to run away without paying a cent.

00:12:33How could you say that?

00:12:37Oh, okay.

00:12:40Okay, Dorian.

00:12:41I think something's going to happen with the baby.

00:12:44The baby's in trouble.

00:12:45You're not fooling anyone.

00:12:48If you're really so broke,

00:12:50why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?

00:12:53You've already drained him dry.

00:12:57What more do you want from him?

00:12:59Dorian, Dorian, please.

00:13:01I'm begging you.

00:13:02Please just say something.

00:13:04Don't fall for her drama.

00:13:06You have two choices.

00:13:07Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital,

00:13:10or she can pay for everything herself.

00:13:12And if she doesn't want to do either,

00:13:16then we don't want the baby anyway.

00:13:19Okay.

00:13:19I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:13:24Okay.

00:13:25I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:13:27Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.

00:13:30And when you started your business, I supported you.

00:13:33I gave you everything that I have.

00:13:36I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments.

00:13:39I have nothing left.

00:13:40Please save us the sob story.

00:13:44You ruined your own ties with your family.

00:13:47Don't blame Dorian for that.

00:13:49If you want to stay here, then fine.

00:13:52Pay for it yourself.

00:13:54But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.

00:13:58Please, can I just see a doctor of hers?

00:14:06Oh, my God, Iris.

00:14:08Stop acting like the victim.

00:14:10Now it all makes sense.

00:14:11You stayed here to show off.

00:14:13When did you become so shallow?

00:14:16You've become shallow.

00:14:18Well, aren't you?

00:14:19If you were really worried about the baby,

00:14:22why wouldn't you take out alone?

00:14:24This is 2025.

00:14:26There's apps for that.

00:14:28You want me to take out a highly predatory,

00:14:31high-interest loan to give birth.

00:14:34Who's going to be your grandchild?

00:14:36I mean, how could you be so heartless?

00:14:38Are you really guilt-tripping me right now?

00:14:42You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby.

00:14:45God, in my day,

00:14:47we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth.

00:14:49We gave birth at home for free.

00:14:52I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.

00:14:56This is ridiculous.

00:14:58I didn't marry Dorian for the money.

00:15:01Stop lying!

00:15:03If you weren't after our money,

00:15:06why haven't you taken out the loan yet?

00:15:09Quit stalling.

00:15:13That hurts!

00:15:14Bastards!

00:15:18How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!

00:15:21Where's Dorian?

00:15:42My baby's coming any second now.

00:15:44What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?

00:15:47He'll be here soon.

00:15:49He's going to get his mom.

00:15:50Seriously, thank you, Anita.

00:15:53For being here.

00:15:55I'm your best friend.

00:15:57I wouldn't miss this for the world.

00:16:00I'm going to go grab the doctor.

00:16:02Chairman Astor,

00:16:15this gift just came in for you.

00:16:17The CEO of Cartelier.

00:16:19It's a custom cheetah brooch.

00:16:21It's the purest ruby on the planet.

00:16:25Not bad.

00:16:26Not bad.

00:16:32Dad.

00:16:39I'm about to have the baby.

00:16:42What?

00:16:44Virus!

00:16:46What?

00:16:47Are you really walking out on your family?

00:16:51Dad!

00:16:52You were wrong about Dorian, okay?

00:16:55He doesn't care about money!

00:16:56He loves me!

00:16:59And I choose him!

00:17:00If you walk through that gate,

00:17:04you are no longer my daughter!

00:17:07And you'll have nothing to do with the Astor name ever again!

00:17:14Even if you never call me your daughter again,

00:17:17I'm still your dad.

00:17:21And I love your dad.

00:17:23I always will.

00:17:26But I choose him.

00:17:28Because our love is real, Dad.

00:17:30And I'm going to prove it to you.

00:17:47Congratulations, sir.

00:17:49You're going to be your grandfather.

00:17:50Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.

00:17:57He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.

00:18:02Still, Irish chose him.

00:18:05And now they're about to have a baby.

00:18:08Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.

00:18:11Get the finest gifts money can buy.

00:18:13I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.

00:18:18I guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.

00:18:25If not,

00:18:27he'll have me to answer to.

00:18:29Mr. Holland, Mr. Holland, what's wrong?

00:18:49What happened?

00:18:49You sounded like you were having a heart attack.

00:18:51Hurry.

00:18:52I need to get the Baltimore Sierra from the vault.

00:18:54I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.

00:18:56You're giving that away?

00:18:58I just got word that Miss Astor,

00:19:00the richest heiress on Earth,

00:19:01is having a baby today.

00:19:03We must congratulate you with a most spectacular gift.

00:19:05If we pull this off,

00:19:07we could have a partnership with the Astor Dominion.

00:19:10We're talking billions, Jessica.

00:19:12Billions.

00:19:13Now go.

00:19:14Run.

00:19:14Now.

00:19:15Now.

00:19:16Now.

00:19:17Now.

00:19:19Now.

00:19:21Now.

00:19:23Now.

00:19:25Now.

00:19:26Now.

00:19:28Now.

00:19:29Now.

00:19:31A private hospital?

00:19:32Now.

00:19:33Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?

00:19:36Yes.

00:19:36She's burning through your money like it grows on trees.

00:19:39Mom.

00:19:40Please don't get worked up.

00:19:41The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.

00:19:43It's serious.

00:19:44There's a real risk of bleeding.

00:19:46Oh.

00:19:47Dorian.

00:19:48Your wife's just being dramatic.

00:19:51And who does she think she is?

00:19:52Some royal heiress or something?

00:19:54Nothing?

00:19:55This is why we're bleeding money.

00:19:57If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today, tomorrow she's gonna wanna live

00:20:03in Nanny.

00:20:04And then what?

00:20:05A private chef?

00:20:06A butler?

00:20:07Mom.

00:20:08What do I do, Mom?

00:20:09You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?

00:20:12No.

00:20:13Not yet.

00:20:14Good.

00:20:15When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.

00:20:18Okay, Mom.

00:20:19Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.

00:20:26My precious baby.

00:20:30Iris, placenta previa is serious.

00:20:34You need to rest and take it easy.

00:20:35We've got you covered around the clock.

00:20:37We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe.

00:20:42Whew.

00:20:43Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.

00:20:48You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.

00:20:53Tessa, we're in your hair.

00:20:59Look at this room.

00:21:06This isn't a hospital.

00:21:08She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.

00:21:12Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-laws gave birth at local clinics and it only cost

00:21:19three grand total.

00:21:22But your wife is spending two grand a night.

00:21:26I don't know, Mom.

00:21:28I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.

00:21:30Ugh.

00:21:31Oh, Dorian.

00:21:33Don't be stupid.

00:21:35This has nothing to do with the baby.

00:21:38She's flaunting.

00:21:39She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite.

00:21:44I warned you.

00:21:45She is not as sweet as she seems.

00:21:49If you keep letting her burn through your money like this,

00:21:53one day you're gonna wake up with nothing left.

00:21:58Then what do I do?

00:22:00Don't worry, my sweet boy.

00:22:03You're gonna handle everything, okay?

00:22:05Okay.

00:22:06Let's go.

00:22:08Tessa, Dorian.

00:22:10What were you guys chatting about out there?

00:22:11Oh, actually, um, the doctor said the bill was due.

00:22:14Do you think you could take care of that?

00:22:16Oh.

00:22:17Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs?

00:22:21A room like this runs 50, 60 grand.

00:22:24Dorian busts his ass every day to support this family.

00:22:29Stop blowing through his savings and leave this hospital immediately.

00:22:37What?

00:22:39What?

00:22:40Leave the hospital?

00:22:41A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt before the baby's even born.

00:22:46Could you just think about Dorian for once?

00:22:52Tessa, I love him.

00:22:55I'm not wasting anyone's money.

00:22:57I chose this hospital because I had placentia previa.

00:23:00I could bleed out.

00:23:01And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency.

00:23:04I'm not here for comfort.

00:23:06I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.

00:23:10Dorian, I know how hard you work.

00:23:15Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable.

00:23:20And then we can transfer, I promise.

00:23:22Son, don't fall for that.

00:23:25We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight.

00:23:28If she drags this out, it's gonna be thousands more down the drain.

00:23:32Tessa, this is between my husband and I.

00:23:34Please just give us a moment.

00:23:36Give us a moment.

00:23:37I'm his mother.

00:23:38Dorian's opinion is my opinion.

00:23:40Now, come on.

00:23:41We are leaving this hospital!

00:23:44Ow!

00:23:47Dorian!

00:23:53Ah! Dorian!

00:23:54Iris, let's just go to a local clinic.

00:24:00Raising a kid is expensive.

00:24:01We need to save where we can.

00:24:03That's right.

00:24:04We're not the bad guys here.

00:24:06Tons of women give birth at local hospitals.

00:24:09But you are a greedy little leech.

00:24:13And I'm not letting you bleed my son dry.

00:24:16What do you think he is?

00:24:17Your personal ATM?

00:24:19I'm not trying to waste anyone's money.

00:24:22I have a low-lying placenta.

00:24:24And if something goes wrong, the BB could die.

00:24:28Don't go soft on her.

00:24:30Let her play you.

00:24:31Every pregnant woman has complications.

00:24:34Just because it's risky doesn't mean it's gonna happen.

00:24:37If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest of your life.

00:24:42You're right, Mom.

00:24:44Thanks for always having my back.

00:24:46Mm-hmm.

00:24:47I'm here for you.

00:24:49Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you.

00:24:55Iris, if you wanna stay in this hospital, fine.

00:24:59But you're gonna pay for it yourself.

00:25:02I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you waste one more cent of my son's money.

00:25:10Uh, something's wrong with me.

00:25:13I think you should call the doctor, please.

00:25:15No.

00:25:16Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

00:25:40Dorian, what happened to you?

00:25:42Okay.

00:25:43What happened?

00:25:45I will pay for it.

00:25:46Hi.

00:25:47Could you settle the bill with us, please?

00:25:49I think I can't afford you.

00:25:50No, no, I can't afford you.

00:25:52No, no.

00:25:53Why, I can't afford you to pay for it.

00:25:55I can't afford you.

00:25:56Oh, let me.

00:25:57I can't afford you.

00:25:58The first time I need the hospital.

00:25:59No, no, I can't afford you.

00:26:01Hey, I can't afford me.

00:26:02No, no, no.

00:26:03Yeah.

00:26:04Okay.

00:26:05Okay.

00:26:06Hi. Could you settle the bill with us, please?

00:26:12See? She had the cash all along.

00:26:16Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.

00:26:22She doesn't feel the pressure now.

00:26:24She's never gonna know what it takes to keep a family afloat.

00:26:28You're right, Mom. You always are.

00:26:30You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.

00:26:33That's right. My precious baby boy.

00:26:35I'm sorry, ma'am. Your card was declined.

00:26:39You're short about $20,000.

00:26:41If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.

00:26:50This is everything I have left.

00:26:52Is she really broke?

00:26:54Doesn't make any sense.

00:26:56With her three jobs, she should have saved at least 20 grand.

00:26:59Well, that's because I cover all the household bills.

00:27:02And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff.

00:27:06Vitamins, supplements, hospital visits.

00:27:08I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.

00:27:10What on earth has she been through these past three years?

00:27:14Dorian, can you just...

00:27:16Please just consider it alone. Just...

00:27:20I swear I'll pay you back.

00:27:22Absolutely not.

00:27:24Don't fall for this.

00:27:26Every wife stashes emergency cash.

00:27:29Did you see how she pulled that card out like it was nothing?

00:27:32Do you think it's her only one?

00:27:34She's still hiding money.

00:27:36I know she is.

00:27:43Dorian, please.

00:27:44Please just help me pay the 20 grand.

00:27:46I swear I'll pay you back.

00:27:48Don't fall for her act.

00:27:50I know what you're playing at.

00:27:52You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.

00:27:55And then you're just gonna run away without paying a cent.

00:27:59How could you say that?

00:28:05Okay.

00:28:06Okay, Dorian.

00:28:08I think something's gonna happen with the baby.

00:28:10The baby's in trouble.

00:28:12You're not fooling anyone.

00:28:14If you're really so broke,

00:28:16why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?

00:28:20You've already drained him dry.

00:28:23What more do you want from him?

00:28:25Dorian.

00:28:26Dorian, please.

00:28:27I'm begging you.

00:28:28Please just say something.

00:28:30Don't fall for her drama.

00:28:33You have two choices.

00:28:34Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital,

00:28:37or she can pay for everything herself.

00:28:39And if she doesn't want to do either,

00:28:42then we don't want the baby anyway.

00:28:46Okay.

00:28:47I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:28:51Okay.

00:28:52I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:28:54Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.

00:28:56And when you started your business, I supported you.

00:29:00I gave you everything that I have.

00:29:03I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments.

00:29:06I have nothing left.

00:29:07Please save us the sob story.

00:29:11You ruined your own ties with your family.

00:29:13Don't blame Dorian for that.

00:29:15If you want to stay here, then fine.

00:29:18Pay for it yourself.

00:29:20But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.

00:29:25It hurts.

00:29:28Please, can I just...

00:29:31Can I just see a doctor of hers?

00:29:33Oh my God, Iris.

00:29:34Stop acting like the victim.

00:29:36Now it all makes sense.

00:29:38You stayed here to show off.

00:29:40When did you become so shallow?

00:29:42You've become shallow.

00:29:44Well, aren't you?

00:29:46If you were really worried about the baby,

00:29:49why wouldn't you take out a loan?

00:29:51This is 2025.

00:29:53There's apps for that.

00:29:54You want me to take out a highly predatory, high-interest loan to give birth.

00:30:00Who's gonna be your grandchild?

00:30:02I mean, how could you be so heartless?

00:30:05Are you really guilt-tripping me right now?

00:30:08You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby!

00:30:12God, in my day, we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth.

00:30:16We gave birth at home for free.

00:30:19I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.

00:30:23This is ridiculous.

00:30:25I didn't marry Doran for the money.

00:30:28Stop lying!

00:30:30If you weren't after our money,

00:30:33why haven't you taken out the loan yet?

00:30:36Quit stalling!

00:30:40That hurts!

00:30:42Oh!

00:30:44Bastards!

00:30:45How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!

00:31:07Where's Dorian?

00:31:09My baby's coming any second now.

00:31:11What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?

00:31:14He'll be here soon.

00:31:15He's going to get his mom.

00:31:17Seriously.

00:31:18Thank you, Anita.

00:31:20For being here.

00:31:22I'm your best friend.

00:31:24I wouldn't miss this for the world.

00:31:27I'm gonna go grab the doctor.

00:31:39Chairman Astor, the skip just came in for you.

00:31:44The CEO of Cartelier.

00:31:46It's a custom cheetah roach.

00:31:48It's the purest Ruby on the planet.

00:31:51Not bad.

00:32:05Dad?

00:32:06I'm about to have the baby.

00:32:09What?!

00:32:11Virus!

00:32:13What?!

00:32:14Are you really walking out on your family?

00:32:18Dad!

00:32:19You were wrong about Dorian, okay?

00:32:21He doesn't care about money!

00:32:23He loves me!

00:32:25And I choose him!

00:32:27Him!

00:32:28If you walk through that gate, you are no longer my daughter!

00:32:34And you'll have nothing to do with the Astor name ever again!

00:32:42Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad.

00:32:46And I love you, dad.

00:32:49And I love you, dad.

00:32:51I always will.

00:32:53But I choose him.

00:32:55Because our love is real, dad.

00:32:58And I'm gonna prove it to you.

00:33:00Thank you!

00:33:15Congratulations, sir.

00:33:16You're gonna be your grandfather.

00:33:17Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.

00:33:24He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.

00:33:29Still, Irish chose him.

00:33:32And now they're about to have a baby.

00:33:35Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.

00:33:37Get the finest gifts money can buy.

00:33:41I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.

00:33:47Guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.

00:33:52If not, he'll have me to answer to.

00:34:07Mr. Holland, Mr. Holland, what's wrong? What happened? You sounded like you were having a heart attack.

00:34:19Hurry, I need to get the Baltimore Tierra from the vault. I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.

00:34:24You're giving that away?

00:34:26I just got word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on earth, is having a baby today.

00:34:30We must congratulate you with the most spectacular gift.

00:34:32If we pulled this off, we could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion!

00:34:37We're talking billions, Jessica! Billions!

00:34:40Now go! Run! Now!

00:34:57A private hospital?

00:34:59Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?

00:35:03She's burning through your money like it grows on trees.

00:35:07Mom, please don't get worked up.

00:35:09The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.

00:35:11It's serious. There's a real risk of bleeding.

00:35:14Oh, Dorian!

00:35:16Your wife's just being dramatic.

00:35:18And who does she think she is? Some royal heiress or something?

00:35:22This is why we're bleeding money.

00:35:23If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today, tomorrow she's going to want to live in Nanny.

00:35:31And then what? A private chef? A butler?

00:35:35What do I do, Mom?

00:35:37You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?

00:35:39No, not yet.

00:35:41Good. When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.

00:35:45Okay, Mom.

00:35:46Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.

00:35:52Oh, my precious baby.

00:35:54Iris, placenta previa is serious. You need to rest and take it easy.

00:36:02We've got you covered around the clock. We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe.

00:36:12Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.

00:36:16You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.

00:36:25Tessa, we're in your hair.

00:36:32Look at this room.

00:36:35This isn't a hospital.

00:36:37She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.

00:36:40Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-laws gave birth at local clinics and it only cost three grand total.

00:36:49But your wife is spending two grand a night.

00:36:54I don't know, Mom. I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.

00:36:58Oh, Dorian. Don't be stupid.

00:37:03This has nothing to do with the baby.

00:37:06She's flaunting.

00:37:08She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite.

00:37:11I warned you, she is not as sweet as she seems.

00:37:16If you keep letting her burn through your money like this, one day you're going to wake up with nothing left.

00:37:24Then what do I do?

00:37:26Don't worry, my sweet boy. We're going to handle everything, okay?

00:37:33Okay. Let's go.

00:37:36Tessa, Dorian, what were you guys chatting about out there?

00:37:39Oh, actually, the doctor said the bill was due. Do you think you could take care of that?

00:37:43Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs? A room like this runs 50, 60 grand. Dorian busts his ass every day to support this family.

00:37:57Stop blowing through his savings and leave this hospital immediately.

00:38:02What? What? Leave the hospital?

00:38:09A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt before the baby's even born.

00:38:14Could you just think about Dorian for once?

00:38:19Tessa, I love him.

00:38:32I'm not here for comfort.

00:38:35I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.

00:38:38Dorian, I know how hard you work.

00:38:43Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable and then we can transfer, I promise.

00:38:50Son, don't fall for that. We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight.

00:38:55If she drags this out, it's gonna be thousands more down the drain.

00:39:00Tessa, this is between my husband and I. Please just give us a moment.

00:39:04I'm his mother. Dorian's opinion is my opinion.

00:39:08Now, come on. We are leaving this hospital!

00:39:12Ow!

00:39:15Dorian!

00:39:16Dorian!

00:39:21Ah! Dorian!

00:39:25Iris, let's just go to a local clinic.

00:39:28Raising a kid is expensive. We need to save where we can.

00:39:31That's right. We're not the bad guys here.

00:39:34Tons of women give birth at local hospitals.

00:40:38Ah!

00:40:40Something's wrong with me.

00:40:42You call the doctor, please.

00:40:43No!

00:40:45Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

00:40:59Dorian, what happened to you?

00:41:01Okay.

00:41:02Come here.

00:41:05I'll see Iris first.

00:41:07You wait here.

00:41:09Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

00:41:26Dorian, what happened to you?

00:41:27Um, okay, I'm really not allowed to pay for it.

00:41:35Guy, could you settle the bill with us, please?

00:41:39See? She had the cash all along.

00:41:44Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.

00:41:50She doesn't feel the pressure now.

00:41:56You're right, Mom. You always are.

00:41:58You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.

00:42:01That's right. Very precious baby boy.

00:42:04Ooh.

00:42:05I'm sorry, ma'am. Your card was declined.

00:42:08You're short about $20,000.

00:42:10If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.

00:42:18This is everything I have left.

00:42:42Dorian, can you just...

00:42:44Please just consider it alone. Just...

00:42:47I swear I'll pay you back.

00:43:19I know what you're playing at.

00:43:21You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.

00:43:28How could you say that?

00:43:33Okay.

00:43:34Okay, Dorian.

00:43:36I think something's going to happen with the baby.

00:43:38The baby's in trouble.

00:43:40You're not fooling anyone.

00:43:42If you're really so broke,

00:43:44why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?

00:43:49You've already drained him dry.

00:43:52What more do you want from him?

00:43:54Dorian?

00:43:55Dorian, please.

00:43:56I am begging you.

00:43:57Please just say something.

00:43:59Don't fall for her drama.

00:44:01You have two choices.

00:44:02Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital,

00:44:05or she can pay for everything herself.

00:44:08And if she doesn't want to do either,

00:44:11then we don't want the baby anyway.

00:44:14Okay.

00:44:15I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:44:19Okay.

00:44:20I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:44:22Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.

00:44:25And when you started your business, I supported you.

00:44:28I gave you everything that I have.

00:44:31I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments.

00:44:34I have nothing left.

00:44:35Please save us the sob story.

00:44:39You ruined your own ties with your family.

00:44:42Don't blame Dorian for that.

00:44:44If you want to stay here, then fine.

00:44:47Pay for it yourself.

00:44:49But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.

00:44:52It hurts.

00:44:57Please, can I just...

00:44:59Can I just see a doctor of hers?

00:45:01Oh, my God, Iris.

00:45:02Stop acting like the victim.

00:45:04Now it all makes sense.

00:45:06You stayed here to show off.

00:45:08When did you become so shallow?

00:45:10You think I'm shallow?

00:45:12Well, aren't you?

00:45:14If you were really worried about the baby, why wouldn't you take out a loan?

00:45:19This is 2025.

00:45:21There's apps for that.

00:45:22You want me to take out a highly predatory, high-interest loan to give birth.

00:45:28Who's going to be your grandchild?

00:45:30I mean, how could you be so heartless?

00:45:33Are you really guilt-tripping me right now?

00:45:37You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby.

00:45:40God, in my day, we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth.

00:45:44We gave birth at home for free.

00:45:47I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.

00:45:51This is ridiculous.

00:45:53I didn't marry Dorian for the money.

00:45:55Stop lying!

00:45:57If you weren't after our money, why haven't you taken out the loan yet?

00:46:03Quit stalling!

00:46:08Daughters!

00:46:12Bastards!

00:46:13How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!

00:46:23Where's Dorian?

00:46:36My baby's coming any second now.

00:46:39What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?

00:46:42He'll be here soon.

00:46:43He's going to get his mom.

00:46:45Seriously.

00:46:46Thank you, Anita.

00:46:48For being here.

00:46:50I'm your best friend.

00:46:52I wouldn't miss this for the world.

00:46:55I'm gonna go grab the doctor.

00:47:09Chairman Astor, this gift just came in for you.

00:47:12The CEO of Cartelier.

00:47:14It's a custom cheat approach.

00:47:16It's the purest Ruby on the planet.

00:47:20Not bad.

00:47:22Dad?

00:47:23I'm about to have the baby.

00:47:36What?!

00:47:37Virus!

00:47:38What?

00:47:39Are you really walking out on your family?

00:47:43Are you really walking out on your family?

00:47:46Dad!

00:47:47You were wrong about Dorian, okay?

00:47:50He doesn't care about money!

00:47:52He loves me!

00:47:54And I choose him!

00:47:56If you walk through that gate, you are no longer my daughter!

00:48:02And you'll have nothing to do with the Esther name ever again!

00:48:06Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad!

00:48:16And I love your dad!

00:48:19I always will!

00:48:21But I choose him!

00:48:23Because our love is real dad!

00:48:26And I'm gonna prove it to you!

00:48:36Congratulations, sir!

00:48:43You're gonna be your grandfather!

00:48:49Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.

00:48:52He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.

00:48:57Still, Irish chose him.

00:48:59And now they're about to have a baby.

00:49:02Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.

00:49:05Get the finest gifts money can buy.

00:49:09I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.

00:49:15Guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.

00:49:20If not,

00:49:22he'll have me to answer to.

00:49:35Mr. Holland!

00:49:36Mr. Holland, what's wrong?

00:49:37What happened?

00:49:38You sounded like you were having a heart attack!

00:49:39Hurry!

00:49:40I need to get the Baltimore Sierra from the vault!

00:49:41I need it delivered to Miss Aster ASAP!

00:49:42You're giving that away?!

00:49:43I just got word that Miss Aster, the richest heiress on earth, is having a baby today!

00:49:45We must congratulate it with the most spectacular gift!

00:49:46If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Aster Dominion!

00:49:49We're talking billions, Jessica!

00:49:50Billions!

00:49:51Now go!

00:49:52Run!

00:49:53Now!

00:49:54Run!

00:49:55Run!

00:49:56Now!

00:49:58A private hunter is the best man!

00:50:02Was he going to turn his child away?

00:50:04We call him a dark man!

00:50:06You're getting a baby today!

00:50:08We must congratulate it with a most spectacular gift!

00:50:11If we pull this off, we can have a partnership with THE Aster Dominion!

00:50:16We're talking billions, Jessica!

00:50:19Billions!

00:50:20Now go!

00:50:21Run!

00:50:22Now!

00:50:23A private hunter?

00:50:26A private hospital?

00:50:29Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?

00:50:32She's burning through your money like it grows on trees.

00:50:35Mom, please don't get worked up.

00:50:37The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.

00:50:39It's serious.

00:50:41There's a real risk of bleeding.

00:50:42Oh, Dorian.

00:50:45Your wife's just being dramatic.

00:50:47And who does she think she is?

00:50:48Some royal heiress or something?

00:50:50This is why we're bleeding money.

00:50:53If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today,

00:50:57tomorrow, she's gonna wanna live in Nanny.

00:51:00And then what?

00:51:01A private chef?

00:51:02A butler?

00:51:04What do I do, Mom?

00:51:05You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?

00:51:08No, not yet.

00:51:09Good.

00:51:10When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.

00:51:14Okay, Mom.

00:51:15Just remember, no other woman will ever love you

00:51:19as much as Mommy does.

00:51:21Aw, this is my precious baby.

00:51:26Iris, placenta previa is serious.

00:51:29You need to rest and take it easy.

00:51:31We've got you covered around the clock.

00:51:33We'll do everything we can to keep you

00:51:35and your little ones safe.

00:51:40Whew.

00:51:41Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.

00:51:45You are going to be the happiest baby

00:51:47in the entire planet, I promise.

00:51:50Tessa, Dora, you're here.

00:51:55Tessa, Dora, you're here.

00:52:00Look at this room.

00:52:03This isn't a hospital.

00:52:05She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.

00:52:08Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-laws

00:52:12gave birth at local clinics, and it only cost three grand total?

00:52:18But your wife is spending two grand a night.

00:52:23I don't know, Mom.

00:52:24I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.

00:52:26Ugh, oh, Dorian, don't be stupid.

00:52:31This has nothing to do with the baby.

00:52:34She's flaunting.

00:52:35She just wants to tell her friends that she

00:52:38gave birth in some luxury suite.

00:52:40I warned you, she is not as sweet as she seems.

00:52:45If you keep letting her burn through your money like this, one day,

00:52:50you're going to wake up with nothing left.

00:52:54Then what do I do?

00:52:57Don't worry, my sweet boy.

00:52:59You're going to handle everything, OK?

00:53:02OK.

00:53:03Let's go.

00:53:05Tessa, Dorian, what were you guys talking about out there?

00:53:07Oh, actually, the doctor said the bill was due.

00:53:10Do you think you could take care of that?

00:53:13Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs?

00:53:17A room like this runs 50, 60 grand.

00:53:21Dorian busts his ass every day to support this family.

00:53:25Stop blowing through his savings and leave

00:53:29this hospital immediately.

00:53:34What?

00:53:35What?

00:53:36Leave the hospital.

00:53:37A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt

00:53:40before the baby's even born.

00:53:42Could you just think about Dorian for once?

00:53:48Tessa, I love him.

00:53:51I'm not wasting anyone's money.

00:53:53I chose this hospital because I had placentia previa.

00:53:56I could bleed out.

00:53:57And it's the only hospital that is equipped

00:53:59for that kind of emergency.

00:54:01I'm not here for comfort.

00:54:04I'm here to protect the baby, make sure that they're safe.

00:54:07Dorian, I know how hard you work.

00:54:12Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable.

00:54:16And then we can transfer, I promise.

00:54:19Son, don't fall for that.

00:54:21We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight.

00:54:24If she drags this out, it's going to be thousands more down the drain.

00:54:29Tessa, this is between my husband and I.

00:54:31Please just give us a moment.

00:54:33I'm his mother.

00:54:34Dorian's opinion is my opinion.

00:54:37Now, come on.

00:54:38We are leaving this hospital.

00:54:40Ow!

00:54:41Ow!

00:54:44Dorian.

00:54:45Iris, let's just go to a local clinic.

00:54:56Raising a kid is expensive.

00:54:57We need to save where we can.

00:54:59That's right.

00:55:00We're not the bad guys here.

00:55:02Tons of women give birth at local hospitals.

00:55:05But you are a greedy little leech.

00:55:09And I'm not letting you bleed my son dry.

00:55:12What do you think he is?

00:55:14Your personal ATM?

00:55:16I'm not trying to waste anyone's money.

00:55:18I have a low-lying placenta.

00:55:20And if something goes wrong, the BB could die.

00:55:24Don't go soft on her.

00:55:26Let her play you.

00:55:27Every pregnant woman has complications.

00:55:30Just because it's risky doesn't mean it's going to happen.

00:55:33If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest of your life.

00:55:39You're right, Mom.

00:55:40Thanks for always having my back.

00:55:42Mm-hmm.

00:55:43I'm here for you.

00:55:45Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you.

00:55:52Iris, if you want to stay in this hospital, fine.

00:55:56But you're going to pay for it yourself.

00:55:58I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you

00:56:03waste one more cent of my son's money.

00:56:06Ah!

00:56:08Something's wrong with me.

00:56:10You called an entrepreneur.

00:56:11No!

00:56:13Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

00:56:26Dorian, what happened to you?

00:56:28Don't take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

00:56:44Dorian, what happened to you?

00:56:47Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

00:56:52Dorian, what happened to you?

00:56:55Okay, I'm about to pay for it.

00:57:02Guy, could you settle the bill with us please?

00:57:07See, she had the cash all along.

00:57:11Women like her always pretend that they're broke

00:57:15until it's time to spend your money.

00:57:17She doesn't feel the pressure now.

00:57:19She's never gonna know what it takes to keep a family afloat.

00:57:23You're right, Mom. You always are.

00:57:25You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.

00:57:28That's right. Very precious baby boy.

00:57:33I'm sorry, ma'am. Your card was declined.

00:57:35You're short about $20,000.

00:57:37If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.

00:57:45This is everything I have left.

00:57:48She really broke.

00:57:50Doesn't make any sense.

00:57:52With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.

00:57:55Yeah, well that's because I cover all the household bills.

00:57:58And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff.

00:58:02Vitamins, supplements, hospital visits.

00:58:04I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.

00:58:06What on earth has she been through these past three years?

00:58:10Brian, can you just...

00:58:12Please just consider it alone. Just...

00:58:15I swear I'll pay you back.

00:58:17Absolutely not.

00:58:19Don't fall for this.

00:58:21Every wife stashes emergency cash.

00:58:25Did you see how she pulled that card out like it was nothing?

00:58:28Do you think it's her only one?

00:58:30She's still hiding money.

00:58:32I know she is.

00:58:33Dorian, please.

00:58:39Please just help me pay the 20 grand, I swear.

00:58:42I'll pay you back.

00:58:44Don't fall for her act.

00:58:46I know what you're playing at.

00:58:48You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.

00:58:51And then you're just gonna run away without paying a cent.

00:58:55How could you say that?

00:58:57Oh, okay.

00:59:01Okay, Dorian.

00:59:03You know what, I think something's gonna happen with the baby.

00:59:06The baby's in trouble.

00:59:08You're not fooling anyone.

00:59:10If you're really so broke,

00:59:12why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?

00:59:16You've already drained him dry.

00:59:19What more do you want from him?

00:59:21Dorian?

00:59:22Dorian, please, I'm begging you.

00:59:24Please just say something.

00:59:26Don't fall for her drama.

00:59:28You have two choices.

00:59:30Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital,

00:59:33or she can pay for everything herself.

00:59:35And if she doesn't want to do either,

00:59:38then we don't want the baby anyway.

00:59:40Okay.

00:59:42I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:59:46Okay.

00:59:47I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:59:49Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.

00:59:52And when you started your business, I supported you.

00:59:55I gave you everything that I have.

00:59:58I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments.

01:00:01I have nothing left.

01:00:03Please save us the sob story.

01:00:07You ruined your own ties with your family.

01:00:09Don't blame Dorian for that.

01:00:11If you want to stay here, then fine.

01:00:14Pay for it yourself.

01:00:16But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.

01:00:24Dorian, it hurts.

01:00:25Please, can I just...

01:00:27Can I just see a doctor of hers?

01:00:29Oh, my God, Iris.

01:00:30Stop acting like the victim.

01:00:32Now it all makes sense.

01:00:33You stayed here to show off.

01:00:35When did he become so shallow?

01:00:38He used to become shallow.

01:00:40Well, aren't you?

01:00:42If you were really worried about the baby,

01:00:45why wouldn't you take out a loan?

01:00:47This is 2025.

01:00:49There's apps for that.

01:00:50You want me to take out a highly predatory,

01:00:53a high-interest loan to give birth.

01:01:40Bastards!

01:01:41How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!

01:02:06What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?

01:02:09He'll be here soon.

01:02:11He's going to get his mom.

01:02:13Seriously.

01:02:14Thank you, Anita.

01:02:15For being here.

01:02:17I'm your best friend.

01:02:19I wouldn't miss this for the world.

01:02:36Chairman Astor, this gift just came in for you.

01:02:43It's the purest droopy on the planet.

01:02:46Not bad.

01:02:48Dad?

01:02:49I'm about to have the baby.

01:03:04What?!

01:03:05Virus!

01:03:06What?!

01:03:07Are you really walking out on your family?

01:03:09Dad!

01:03:10You were wrong about Dorian, okay?

01:03:11He doesn't care about money!

01:03:12He loves me!

01:03:13And I choose him!

01:03:14If you walk through that gate, you are no longer my daughter!

01:03:16And you'll have nothing to do with the Esther name ever again!

01:03:22Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad!

01:03:23And I love your dad!

01:03:24I always will!

01:03:25But I choose him!

01:03:26Because our love is real dad!

01:03:27And I'm gonna prove it to you!

01:03:28And I choose him!

01:03:29Because our love is real dad!

01:03:30And I'm gonna prove it to you!

01:03:31And I'm gonna prove it to you!

01:03:32I'm gonna be your dad!

01:03:33I'm gonna be my daughter!

01:03:34And I'm gonna be my daughter ever again!

01:03:35I'm gonna be my daughter again!

01:03:36Even if you never call me your daughter again!

01:03:37Even if you never call me your daughter again!

01:03:40I'm still your dad!

01:03:41And I love your dad!

01:03:42I always will!

01:03:44But I choose him!

01:03:46I always will, but I choose him because our love is real, Dad, and I'm going to prove it to you.

01:04:10Congratulations, sir. You're going to be your grandfather.

01:04:16Dorian still rubs me the wrong way. He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.

01:04:24Still, Irish chose him, and now they're about to have a baby. Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.

01:04:33Get the finest gifts money can buy. I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.

01:04:40I guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris. If not, he'll have me to answer to.

01:04:52Mr. Holland! Mr. Holland, what's wrong? What happened? You sounded like you were having a heart attack.

01:05:00Hurry. I need to get the Baltimore Sierra from the vault. I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.

01:05:06You're giving that away?

01:05:08I just got word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on earth, is having a baby today. We must congratulate it with the most spectacular gift.

01:05:14If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with the Astor Dominion. We're talking billions, Jessica! Billions!

01:05:20Now go! Run! Now!

01:05:24A Proud!

01:05:40Appropriate!

01:05:44A private hospital?

01:05:56Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?

01:05:59She's burning through your money like it grows on trees.

01:06:03Mom, please don't get worked up.

01:06:05The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.

01:06:07It's serious.

01:06:08There's a real risk of bleeding.

01:06:10Oh, Dorian.

01:06:12Your wife's just being dramatic.

01:06:15And who does she think she is?

01:06:16Some royal heiress or something?

01:06:18This is why we're bleeding money.

01:06:20If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today,

01:06:24tomorrow she's going to want to live in Nanny.

01:06:27And then what?

01:06:28A private chef?

01:06:30A butler?

01:06:31What do I do, Mom?

01:06:33You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?

01:06:35No, not yet.

01:06:37Good.

01:06:37When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.

01:06:42Okay, Mom.

01:06:42Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.

01:06:49Oh, my precious baby.

01:06:53Iris, placenta previa is serious.

01:06:56You need to rest and take it easy.

01:06:58We've got you covered around the clock.

01:07:00We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe.

01:07:03Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.

01:07:12You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.

01:07:16Tessa, we're in your hair.

01:07:28Look at this room.

01:07:31This isn't a hospital.

01:07:32She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.

01:07:35Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-law's gave birth at local clinics?

01:07:41And it only costs three grand total.

01:07:46But your wife is spending two grand a night.

01:07:50I don't know, Mom.

01:07:51I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.

01:07:54Oh, Dorian.

01:07:56Don't be stupid.

01:07:58This has nothing to do with the baby.

01:08:02She's flaunting.

01:08:03She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite.

01:08:08I warned you.

01:08:09She is not as sweet as she seems.

01:08:13If you keep letting her burn through your money like this,

01:08:17one day you're going to wake up with nothing left.

01:08:22Then what do I do?

01:08:24Don't worry, my sweet boy.

01:08:26I'm going to handle everything, okay?

01:08:29Okay.

01:08:31Let's go.

01:08:32Tessa, Dorian.

01:08:34What were you guys chatting about?

01:08:35Oh, actually, the doctor said the bill was due.

01:08:38Do you think you could take care of that?

01:08:41Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs?

01:08:45A room like this runs 50, 60 grand.

01:08:48Dorian busts his ass every day to support this family.

01:08:53Stop blowing through his savings.

01:08:56And leave this hospital immediately.

01:09:01What?

01:09:03What?

01:09:03Leave the hospital.

01:09:05A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt before the baby's even born.

01:09:10Could you just think about Dorian for once?

01:09:13I love him.

01:09:18I'm not wasting anyone's money.

01:09:21I chose this hospital because I have placentia previa.

01:09:24I could bleed out.

01:09:25And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency.

01:09:28I'm not here for comfort.

01:09:30I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.

01:09:34Dorian, I know how hard you work.

01:09:39God.

01:09:39Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable.

01:09:44And then we can transfer, I promise.

01:09:46Son, don't fall for that.

01:09:49We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight.

01:09:52If she drags this out, it's going to be thousands more down the drain.

01:09:56Tessa, this is between my husband and I.

01:09:59Please just give us a moment.

01:10:01I'm his mother.

01:10:02Dorian's opinion is my opinion.

01:10:04Now, come on.

01:10:05We are leaving this hospital.

01:10:08Ow!

01:10:11Dorian.

01:10:17Dorian.

01:10:20Iris, let's just go to a local clinic.

01:10:24Raising a kid is expensive.

01:10:25We need to save where we can.

01:10:27That's right.

01:10:28We're not the bad guys here.

01:10:30Tons of women give birth at local hospitals.

01:10:33But you are a greedy little leech.

01:10:37And I'm not letting you bleed my son dry.

01:10:40What do you think he is?

01:10:41Your personal ATM?

01:10:43I'm not trying to waste anyone's money.

01:10:46I have a low-lying placenta.

01:10:48And if something goes wrong, the BB could die.

01:10:52Don't go soft on her.

01:10:54Let her play you.

01:10:55Every pregnant woman has complications.

01:10:58Just because it's risky doesn't mean it's going to happen.

01:11:01If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest of your life.

01:11:06You're right, Mom.

01:11:08Thanks for always having my back.

01:11:09I'm here for you.

01:11:12Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you.

01:11:19Iris, if you want to stay in this hospital, fine.

01:11:23But you're going to pay for it yourself.

01:11:26I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you waste one more cent of my son's money.

01:11:35Something's wrong with me.

01:11:37I think you called an entrepreneur.

01:11:39Iris, do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

01:11:45I'll see Iris first.

01:12:12You wait here.

01:12:14Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.

01:12:21Dorian, what happened to you?

01:12:23Okay.

01:12:25Well, I don't know about pay for it.

01:12:31Kai, could you settle the bill with us, please?

01:12:35See?

01:12:37She had the cash all along.

01:12:40Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.

01:12:46She doesn't feel the pressure now.

01:12:48She's never going to know what it takes to keep a family afloat.

01:12:52You're right, Mom.

01:12:53You always are.

01:12:54You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.

01:12:57That's right.

01:12:58Very precious baby boy.

01:12:59I'm sorry, ma'am.

01:13:02Your card was declined.

01:13:04You're short about $20,000.

01:13:06If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.

01:13:09This is everything I have left.

01:13:17Is she really broke?

01:13:19Doesn't make any sense.

01:13:21With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.

01:13:24Yeah, well, that's because I cover all the household bills.

01:13:27And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff.

01:13:30Vitamins, supplements, hospital visits.

01:13:32I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.

01:13:33What on earth has she been through these past three years?

01:13:39Dorian, can you just...

01:13:40Please, just consider it alone.

01:13:43Just...

01:13:44I swear I'll pay you back.

01:13:46Absolutely not.

01:13:48Don't fall for this.

01:13:50Every wife stashes emergency cash.

01:13:53Did you see how she pulled that card out like it was nothing?

01:13:56Do you think it's her only one?

01:13:58She's still hiding money.

01:14:00I know she is.

01:14:03Dorian, please.

01:14:08Please just help me pay the 20 grand.

01:14:10I swear I'll pay you back.

01:14:13Don't fall for her act.

01:14:15I know what you're playing at.

01:14:17You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.

01:14:19And then you're just going to run away without paying a cent.

01:14:24How could you say that?

01:14:28Oh, okay.

01:14:31Okay, Dorian.

01:14:32When I think something's wrong with the baby, the baby's in trouble.

01:14:36You're not fooling anyone.

01:14:39If you're really so broke.

01:14:41Why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?

01:14:45You've already drained him dry.

01:14:48What more do you want from him?

01:14:50Dorian?

01:14:51Dorian, please.

01:14:52I'm begging you.

01:14:53Please just say something.

01:14:54Hey, don't fall for her drama.

01:14:57You have two choices.

01:14:58Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital, or she can pay for everything herself.

01:15:03And if she doesn't want to do either, then we don't want the baby anyway.

01:15:10Okay.

01:15:10I'll listen to you, Mom.

01:15:15Okay.

01:15:16I'll listen to you, Mom.

01:15:18Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.

01:15:21And when you started your business, I supported you.

01:15:24I gave you everything that I have.

01:15:26I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payment.

01:15:30I have nothing left.

01:15:31Please save us the sob story.

01:15:35You ruined your own ties with your family.

01:15:38Don't blame Dorian for that.

01:15:40If you want to stay here, then fine.

01:15:43Pay for it yourself.

01:15:45But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.

01:15:52Dorian, it hurts.

01:15:53Please, can I just see a doctor of hers?

01:15:57Oh my God, Iris.

01:15:59Stop acting like the victim.

01:16:01Now it all makes sense.

01:16:02You stayed here to show off.

01:16:04When did you become so shallow?

01:16:07You think I'm shallow.

01:16:09Well, aren't you?

01:16:10If you were really worried about the baby, why wouldn't you take out alone?

01:16:15This is 2025.

01:16:17There's apps for that.

01:16:19You want me to take out a highly predatory, high-interest loan to give birth.

01:16:25Who's going to be your grandchild?

01:16:27I mean, how could you be so heartless?

01:16:29Are you really guilt-tripping me right now?

01:16:33You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby.

01:16:36God, in my day, we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth.

01:16:40We gave birth at home for free.

01:16:43I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.

01:16:47This is ridiculous.

01:16:49I didn't marry Dorian for the money.

01:16:52Stop lying!

01:16:54If you weren't after our money, why haven't you taken out the loan yet?

01:17:00Quit stalling.

01:17:04Daughters!

01:17:05Bastards!

01:17:09How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!

01:17:35I'll see Iris first.

01:17:46You wait here.

01:17:49Do not take one more step

01:17:52until she agrees to pay for it herself.

01:17:55Dorian, what happened to you?

01:17:57Okay.

01:17:59I'm all about to pay for it.

01:18:00Hi.

01:18:06Could you settle the bill with us, please?

01:18:09See?

01:18:11She had the cash all along.

01:20:02Oh, okay.

01:20:05Okay, Dorian.

01:20:06I think something's wrong with the baby.

01:20:09The baby's in trouble.

01:20:10You're not fooling anyone.
