00:00:00You
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
00:08:28Iris
00:08:30let's just go to a local clinic
00:08:32Raising a kid is expensive, we need to save where we can
00:08:37That's right, we're not the bad guys here
00:08:39tons of women give birth at local hospitals
00:08:42But you are a greedy little leech
00:08:46And I'm not letting you bleed my son dry
00:08:49What do you think he is?
00:08:51Your personal ATM
00:08:53I'm not trying to waste anyone's money
00:08:54funny. I have a low-lying placenta and if something goes wrong, the BB could die. Don't
00:09:01go soft on her. Let her play you. Every pregnant woman has complications. Just because it's
00:09:08risky doesn't mean it's gonna happen. If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest
00:09:14of your life. You're right, Mom. Thanks for always having my back. Mm-hmm. I'm here for
00:09:21you. Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you. Iris, if you
00:09:30want to stay in this hospital, fine. But you're gonna pay for it yourself. I'm not letting
00:09:36a greedy little wife like you waste one more cent of my son's money. Something's wrong with
00:09:45I think you call an entrepreneur. No. Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay
00:09:52for it herself.
00:09:59I'll see Iris first. You wait here. Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for
00:10:06it herself. Dorian, what happened to you? Okay. I don't know how to pay for it. I'll
00:10:13I'll see Iris first. You wait here. Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for
00:10:20it herself. Dorian, what happened to you? Okay. I don't know how to pay for it. Hi. Could you
00:10:28settle the bill with us, please? Thank you. See? She had the cash all along. Women like her
00:10:35always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money. She doesn't feel the
00:10:43pressure now. She's never gonna know what it takes to keep a family afloat. You're right,
00:10:50mom. You always are. You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me. That's
00:10:57right. Very precious baby boy. I'm sorry, ma'am. Your card was declined. You're short of
00:11:04about $20,000. If you can't pay, we have to discharge you. This is everything I have left.
00:11:25Is she really broke? Doesn't make any sense. With her three jobs, she should have saved at
00:11:31least $20,000. Yeah, well that's because I cover all the household bills. And ever since
00:11:36I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff. Vitamins, supplements, to
00:11:40hospital visits. I mean, it all adds up, Dorian. What on earth has she been through these past
00:11:46three years? Dorian, can you just... please just consider it alone. Just... I swear I'll
00:11:53pay you back. Absolutely not. Don't fall for this. Every wife stashes emergency cash. Did you see
00:12:02how she pulled that card out like it was nothing? Do you think it's her only one? She's still
00:12:07hiding money. I know she is.
00:12:10Dorian, please. Please just help me pay the $20,000. I swear I'll pay you back. Don't
00:12:22fall for her act. I know what you're playing at. You're trying to squeeze money out of Dory.
00:12:28And then you're just gonna run away without paying a cent. How could you say that?
00:12:34Okay. Okay, Dorian. I think something's wrong with the baby. The baby's in trouble.
00:12:45You're not fooling anyone. If you're really so broke, why are you insisting on staying at
00:12:51such a luxury hospital? You've already drained him dry. What more do you want from him?
00:12:58Dorian. Dorian, please, I am begging you. Please just say something.
00:13:03Don't fall for her drama. You have two choices. Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital,
00:13:10or she can pay for everything herself. And if she doesn't want to do either, then we don't
00:13:16want the baby anyway. Okay. I'll listen to you, Mom. Okay. I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:13:26Dorian. Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you. And when you started your business,
00:13:31I supported you. I gave you everything that I have. I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car
00:13:38payments. I have nothing left. Please save us the sob story. You ruined your own ties with your family.
00:13:46Don't blame Dorian for that. If you want to stay here, then fine. Pay for it yourself.
00:13:53But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.
00:14:01Dorian, it hurts. Please, can I just see a doctor of hers?
00:14:05Oh, my God, Iris. Stop acting like the victim. Now it all makes sense. You stayed here to show off.
00:14:12When did you become so shallow?
00:14:14He used to become shallow.
00:14:17Well, aren't you? If you were really worried about the baby, why wouldn't you take out a loan?
00:14:23This is 2025. There's apps for that. You want me to take out a highly predatory, high interest loan to give birth?
00:14:33Who's going to be your grandchild? I mean, how could you be so heartless?
00:14:37Are you really guilt tripping me right now? You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby.
00:14:44God, in my day, we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth. We gave birth at home for free.
00:14:51I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.
00:14:56This is ridiculous. I didn't marry Dorian for the money.
00:15:00Stop lying!
00:15:02If you weren't after our money, why haven't you taken out the loan yet?
00:15:08Quit stalling!
00:15:13Daughters!
00:15:14Bastards! How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!
00:15:23Where's Dorian?
00:15:40My baby's coming any second now. What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?
00:15:46He'll be here soon. He's going to get his mom.
00:15:50Seriously, thank you, Anita, for being here.
00:15:54I'm your best friend. I wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:15:59I'm gonna go grab the doctor.
00:16:01Chairman Astor, this gift just came in for you.
00:16:16The CEO of Cartelier. It's a custom cheetah brooch.
00:16:20It's the purest Ruby on the planet.
00:16:24Not bad.
00:16:37Dad?
00:16:39I'm about to have the baby.
00:16:41What?
00:16:44Virus!
00:16:46What?
00:16:47Are you really walking out on your family?
00:16:50Dad!
00:16:52You were wrong about Dorian, okay?
00:16:54He doesn't care about money!
00:16:56He loves me!
00:16:58And I choose him!
00:17:01If you walk through that gate, you are no longer my daughter.
00:17:06And you'll have nothing to do with the Astor name ever again!
00:17:11Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad.
00:17:18And I love your dad.
00:17:22I always will.
00:17:24But I choose him.
00:17:27Because our love is real, dad.
00:17:29And I'm gonna prove it to you.
00:17:32Congratulations, sir. You're gonna be your grandfather.
00:17:49Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.
00:17:56He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.
00:18:00Still, Irish chose him.
00:18:03And now they're about to have a baby.
00:18:06Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.
00:18:09Get the finest gifts money can buy.
00:18:13I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.
00:18:16Guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.
00:18:23If not, he'll have me to answer to.
00:18:30Mr. Holland! Mr. Holland, what's wrong? What happened? You sounded like you were having a heart attack.
00:18:50Hurry, I need to get the Baltimore Tierra from the vault.
00:18:53I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.
00:18:56You're giving that away?
00:18:58I just got word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on Earth, is having a baby today.
00:19:02We must congratulate you with the most spectacular gift.
00:19:04If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion.
00:19:09We're talking billions, Jessica! Billions!
00:19:12Now go! Run! Now!
00:19:20A private hospital? Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?
00:19:35She's burning through your money like it grows on trees.
00:19:39Mom, please don't get worked up.
00:19:41The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.
00:19:43It's serious. There's a real risk of bleeding.
00:19:46Oh, Dorian. Your wife's just being dramatic.
00:19:51And who does she think she is? Some royal heiress or something?
00:19:54This is why we're bleeding money.
00:19:56If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today, tomorrow she's gonna wanna live in Nanny.
00:20:03And then what? A private chef? A butler?
00:20:07What do I do, Mom?
00:20:09You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?
00:20:11No, not yet.
00:20:13Good. When 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.
00:20:25Oh, my precious baby.
00:20:30Iris, placenta previa is serious. You need to rest and take it easy.
00:20:35We've got you covered around the clock. We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe.
00:20:45Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.
00:20:48You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.
00:20:57Tessa, we're in your hair.
00:20:59Look at this room. This isn't a hospital. She'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 three grand total.

00:21:27I don't know, Mom. I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.
00:21:31Oh, Dorian. Don'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, she is not as sweet as she seems.
00:21:49If you keep letting her burn through your money like this, one day you're going to wake up with nothing left.
00:21:58Then what do I do?
00:21:59Don't worry, my sweet boy. You're going to handle everything, okay?
00:22:05Okay.
00:22:07Let's go.
00:22:09Tessa, Dorian, what were you guys chatting about out there?
00:22:11Oh, actually, the doctor said the bill was due. Do you think you could take care of that?
00:22:16Iris, 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? Leave 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?
00:22:50Tessa, I love him.
00:22:54I'm not wasting anyone's money.
00:22:57I chose this hospital because I had placentia previa.
00:23:00I could bleed out.
00:23:02And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency.
00:23:05I'm not here for comfort.
00:23:07I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.
00:23:11Dorian, I know how hard you work.
00:23:14Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable and 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.
00:23:35Please 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.
00:23:41Now, come on.
00:23:42We are leaving this hospital!
00:23:44Ow!
00:23:48Dorian!
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?
00:24:18Your personal ATM?
00:24:20I'm not trying to waste anyone's money.
00:24:21I 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.
00:24:32Every 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.
00:24:48Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you.
00:24:55Iris, if you want to stay in this hospital, fine.
00:25:00But 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.
00:25:09Uh!
00:25:11Something's wrong with me.
00:25:13I think you should call the doctor, please.
00:25:15No!
00:25:17Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:25:20I'll see Iris first.
00:25:21You wait here.
00:25:22I'll see Iris first.
00:25:23You wait here.
00:25:24I'll see Iris first.
00:25:25You wait here.
00:25:26Do not take one more step until you see Iris first.
00:25:27You wait here.
00:25:28I'll see Iris first.
00:25:29You wait here.
00:25:30Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:25:43Dorian, what happened to you?
00:25:44Okay.
00:25:45I'll see Iris first.
00:25:46I'll see Iris first.
00:25:47You wait here.
00:25:48Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:25:52Dorian, what happened to you?
00:25:53Okay.
00:25:54I'll see Iris first.
00:25:55I'll see Iris first.
00:25:56I'll see Iris first.
00:25:57I'll see Iris first.
00:25:58I'll see Iris first.
00:25:59I'll see Iris first.
00:26:00I'll see Iris first.
00:26:01Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:26:02Dorian, what happened to you?
00:26:03Okay.
00:26:04I'm all about to pay for it.
00:26:05Hi.
00:26:06Could you settle the bill with us, please?
00:26:08See?
00:26:09She had the cash all along.
00:26:12Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.
00:26:21She doesn't feel the pressure now.
00:26:24She's never going to know what it takes to keep a family afloat.
00:26:28You're right, mom.
00:26:29You always are.
00:26:30You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.
00:26:33That's right.
00:26:34My precious baby boy.
00:26:36I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:26:38Your card was declined.
00:26:40You're short about $20,000.
00:26:42If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.
00:26:51This is everything I have left.
00:26:53Is she really broke?
00:26:55Doesn't make any sense.
00:26:57With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.
00:27:00Yeah, well that's because I cover all the household bills.
00:27:03And 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 to Dorian.
00:27:10What on earth has she been through these past three years?
00:27:15Brian, can you just...
00:27:17Please just consider it alone.
00:27:19Just...
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.
00:27:49Don't fall for her act.
00:27:51I know what you're playing at.
00:27:53You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.
00:27:56And then you're just gonna run away without paying a cent.
00:28:00How could you say that?
00:28:02Oh, okay.
00:28:06Okay, Dorian.
00:28:08I think something's going to happen with the baby.
00:28:11The baby's in trouble.
00:28:13You're not fooling anyone.
00:28:15If you're really so broke,
00:28:17why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?
00:28:21You've already drained him dry.
00:28:24What more do you want from him?
00:28:26Dorian?
00:28:27Dorian, please.
00:28:28I'm begging you.
00:28:29Please just say something.
00:28:31Don'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.
00:28:40And if she doesn't want to do either,
00:28:43then 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.
00:28:55Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.
00:28:57And 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.
00:29:14Don't blame Dorian for that.
00:29:16If you want to stay here, then fine.
00:29:19Pay for it yourself.
00:29:21But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.
00:29:28Dorian, it hurts.
00:29:30Please, 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?
00:29:43You've become shallow.
00:29:45Well, 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.
00:29:55You want me to take out a highly predatory,
00:29:58a high interest loan to give birth.
00:30:01Who's going to be your grandchild?
00:30:03I mean, how could you be so heartless?
00:30:05Are you really guilt tripping me right now?
00:30:09You'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 Dorian for the money.
00:30:27Stop 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!
00:30:37Ah!
00:30:40That hurts!
00:30:44Bastards!
00:30:45How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!
00:30:57Where's Dorian?
00:31:09Maybe he'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, thank you, Anita.
00:31:20For being here.
00:31:21I'm your best friend.
00:31:23I wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:31:26I'm going to go grab the doctor.
00:31:29Chairman 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.
00:31:50On the planet.
00:31:52Not bad.
00:32:05Dad.
00:32:07I'm about to have the baby.
00:32:08What?
00:32:11Virus!
00:32:12What?
00:32:13Are you really walking out on your family?
00:32:17Dad!
00:32:18You were wrong about Dorian, okay?
00:32:21He doesn't care about money!
00:32:23He loves me!
00:32:25And I choose him!
00:32:27If you walk through that gate,
00:32:30you are no longer my daughter.
00:32:33And you'll have nothing to do with the Astor name ever again!
00:32:37Even if you never call me your daughter again,
00:32:44I'm still your dad.
00:32:46And I love you, dad.
00:32:50I always will.
00:32:52But I choose him.
00:32:55Because our love is real, dad.
00:32:57And I'm going to prove it to you.
00:33:07Congratulations, sir.
00:33:08You're going to be your grandfather.
00:33:09Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.
00:33:24He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.
00:33:28Still, Iris chose him.
00:33:31And now they're about to have a baby.
00:33:34Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.
00:33:38Get 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.
00:33:51If not, he'll have me to answer to.
00:33:56Mr. Holland!
00:33:58Mr. Holland, what's wrong?
00:33:59What happened?
00:34:00You sounded like you were having a heart attack.
00:34:01Hurry, I need to get the Baltimore Tierra from the vault.
00:34:04I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP!
00:34:06You're giving that away?
00:34:07I just get word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on Earth, is having a baby today.
00:34:10We must congratulate her the office.
00:34:11We will see you here.
00:34:12You're going to be here.
00:34:13I need it.
00:34:14Give it back to your mom, honey.
00:34:15Look at me!
00:34:16So the psychology is a mom.
00:34:18I need your mom.
00:34:19I need your mom.
00:34:20I need your mom.
00:34:21I need your mom.
00:34:22I need your mom.
00:34:23I need your mom.
00:34:24Hold it.
00:34:25I need your mom.
00:34:26I need your mom.
00:34:27Hold it.
00:34:28heiress on earth is having a baby today. We must congratulate you with the most
00:34:32spectacular gift. If we pull this off we could have a partnership with the Astrid
00:34:37Dominion. We're talking billions Jessica! Billions! Now go! Run! Now!
00:34:58A private hospital? Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here? She's burning through
00:35:05your money like it grows on trees. Mom please don't get worked up. The doctor said Iris has
00:35:10placenta previa. It's serious. There's a real risk of bleeding. Oh Dorian! Your wife's just being
00:35:18dramatic. And who does she think she is? Some royal heiress or something? This is why we're bleeding
00:35:24money. If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today, tomorrow she's going to want
00:35:30to live in Nanny. And then what? A private chef? A butler? What do I do mom? You haven't paid the
00:35:38hospital bill yet right? No not yet. Good. When we get inside stay quiet and follow my lead. Okay mom.
00:35:47Just remember no other woman will ever love you as much as mommy does. Oh my precious baby.
00:35:58Iris, placenta previa is serious. You need to rest and take it easy. We've got you covered around
00:36:04the clock. We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe. Thank you.
00:36:09Mommy and daddy are so excited to meet you. You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet,
00:36:20I promise. Tessa, Dorian, you're here.
00:36:27Look at this room. This isn't a hospital. She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.
00:36:41Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-laws gave birth at local clinics and it only cost three grand
00:36:49total. But your wife is spending two grand a night. I don't know mom, I think she's just trying to do
00:36:57what's best for the baby. Oh, oh Dorian, don't be stupid. This has nothing to do with the baby.
00:37:06She's flaunting. She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite.
00:37:12I warned you, she is not as sweet as she seems. If you keep letting her burn through your money like
00:37:21this, one day you're going to wake up with nothing left. Then what do I do?
00:37:29Don't worry, my sweet boy. You're going to handle everything, okay? Okay. Let's go.
00:37:37Tessa, Dorian, what were you guys chatting about out there? Oh, actually, um, the doctor said the bill
00:37:42was due. Do you think you could take care of that? Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs?
00:37:49A 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.
00:38:03What? Leave the hospital. A 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?
00:38:20Tessa, I love him. I'm not wasting anyone's money. I chose this hospital because I had placentia previa.
00:38:28I could bleed out. And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency.
00:38:33I'm not here for comfort. I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.
00:38:39Dorian, I know how hard you work. Just let me stay one night and just, just to make sure the baby is
00:38:48stable and then we can transfer, I promise. Son, don't fall for that. We don't even know if the baby's
00:38:55coming tonight. If she drags this out, it's going to be thousands more down the drain.
00:39:00Tessa, this is between my husband and I. Please just give us a moment. I'm his mother. Dorian's
00:39:07opinion is my opinion. Now, come on. We are leaving this hospital.
00:39:16Dorian.
00:39:16Iris, let's just go to a local clinic. Raising a kid is expensive. We need to save where we can.
00:39:31That's right. We're not the bad guys here. Tons of women give birth at local hospitals,
00:39:37but you are a greedy little leech and I'm not letting you bleed my son dry.
00:39:44What do you think he is? Your personal ATM? I'm not trying to waste anyone's money.
00:39:50I have a low-lying placenta. And if something goes wrong, the baby could die.
00:39:57Don't go soft on her. Let her play you. Every pregnant woman has complications. Just because
00:40:03it's risky doesn't mean it's going to happen. If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest of
00:40:09your life. You're right, mom. Thanks for always having my back.
00:40:15I'm here for you. Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you.
00:40:24Iris, if you want to stay in this hospital, fine. But you're gonna pay for it yourself.
00:40:30I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you waste one more cent of my son's money.
00:40:40Something's wrong with me. You call the doctor, please.
00:40:43No. Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:40:57Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:41:12Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:41:25Dorian, what happened to you?
00:41:27Okay. I'm all about to pay for it.
00:41:31Hi. Could you settle the bill with us, please? Thank you.
00:41:39You see? She had the cash all along.
00:41:45Women 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. She's never gonna know what it takes to keep a family afloat.
00:41:56You're right, mom. You always are. You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.
00:42:01That's right. Very precious baby boy.
00:42:03I'm sorry, ma'am. Your card was declined. You're short about $20,000.
00:42:11If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.
00:42:14This is everything I have left.
00:42:20Is she really broke?
00:42:23It doesn't make any sense. With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.
00:42:28Yeah, well, that's because I cover all the household bills. And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff. Vitamins, supplements, hospital visits. I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.
00:42:39What on earth has she been through these past three years?
00:42:43Dorian, can you just... please just consider it alone. Just... I swear I'll wait you back.
00:42:50Absolutely not. Don't fall for this.
00:42:53Every wife stashes emergency cash. Did you see how she pulled that card out like it was nothing?
00:43:01Do you think it's her only one? She's still hiding money. I know she is.
00:43:11Dorian, please. Please just help me pay the $20,000. I swear I'll pay you back. Don't fall for her act.
00:43:19I know what you're playing at. You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.
00:43:24And then you're just gonna run away without paying a cent.
00:43:28How could you say that?
00:43:32Oh, okay. Okay, Dorian.
00:43:37And when I think something's going to happen with the baby, the baby's in trouble.
00:43:41You're not fooling anyone. If you're really so broke,
00:43:45Why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital? You've already drained him dry.
00:43:53What more do you want from him?
00:43:54Dorian? Dorian, please. I'm begging you. Please just say something.
00:43:58Okay. Don't fall for her drama. You have two choices. Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital,
00:44:06or she can pay for everything herself.
00:44:08And if she doesn't want to do either, then we don't want the baby anyway.
00:44:14Okay. I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:44:19Okay. I'll listen to you, Mom.

00:44:28I gave you everything that I have. I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments. I have nothing left.
00:44:35Please save us the sob story. You ruined your own ties with your family. Don't blame Dorian for that.
00:44:44If you want to stay here, then fine. Pay for it yourself. But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.
00:44:53Oh my god, Iris. Stop acting like the victim. Now it all makes sense. You stayed here to show off.
00:45:08When did you become so shallow? You become shallow.
00:45:13Well, aren't you? If you were really worried about the baby, why wouldn't you take out alone?
00:45:20This is 2025. There's apps for that. You want me to take out a highly predatory,

00:46:02why haven't you taken out the loan yet? Quit stalling!
00:46:09Daughters!
00:46:09BASTARDS! How DARE you treat my precious daughter like this!
00:46:17Where's Dorian? My baby's coming any second now.
00:46:39What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?
00:46:41He'll be here soon. He's going to get his mom.
00:46:46Seriously, thank you, Anita, for being here.
00:46:50I'm your best friend. I wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:46:54I'm going to go grab the doctor.
00:47:09Chairman Astor, the skip just came in for you.
00:47:12The CEO of Cartelier is a custom cheat approach.
00:47:17It's the purest ruby on the planet.
00:47:20Not bad.
00:47:33Dad?
00:47:34I'm about to have the baby.
00:47:36What?
00:47:39Virus!
00:47:42What?
00:47:42Are you really walking out on your family?
00:47:46Dad, you were wrong about Dorian, okay?
00:47:50He doesn't care about money. He loves me, and 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 Astor name ever again.
00:48:10Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad.
00:48:17And I love your dad. I always will.
00:48:20But I choose him because our love is real, Dad.
00:48:27And I'm going to prove it to you.
00:48:43Congratulations, sir. You're going to be your grandfather.
00:48:45Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.
00:48:53He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.
00:48:58Still, Irish chose him.
00:49:00And now they're about to have a baby.
00:49:03Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.
00:49:07Get the finest gifts money can buy.
00:49:09I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.
00:49:15I guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.
00:49:20If not, uh, he'll have me to answer to.
00:49:24Mr. Holland, Mr. Holland, what's wrong?
00:49:44What happened? You sounded like you were having a heart attack.
00:49:47Hurry. I need to get the Pultimate Sierra from the vault.
00:49:50I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.
00:49:52You're giving that away?
00:49:54I just got word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on earth, is having a baby today.
00:49:58They must congratulate you with the most spectacular gift.
00:50:01If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion.
00:50:05We're talking billions, Jessica! Billions!
00:50:08Now go! Run! Now!
00:50:22A private hospital? Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?
00:50:31She'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. There's a real risk of bleeding.
00:50:42Oh, Dorian. Your wife's just being dramatic.
00:50:47And who does she think she is? Some royal heiress or something?
00:50:50This is why we're bleeding money.
00:50:52If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today, tomorrow she's gonna want to live in Nanny.
00:50:59And then what? A private chef? A butler?
00:51:03What do I do, Mom?
00:51:05You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?
00:51:07No, not yet.
00:51:09Good. When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.
00:51:14Okay, Mom.
00:51:15Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.
00:51:21Oh, my precious baby.
00:51:26Iris, placenta previa is serious. You 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 and your little ones safe.
00:51:41Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.
00:51:45You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.
00:51:53Tessa, Dorian, you're here.
00:51:55Look 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 gave birth at local clinics?
00:52:14And it only cost three grand total.
00:52:18But your wife is spending two grand a night.
00:52:23I don't know, Mom. I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.
00:52:26Ugh.
00:52:27Oh, Dorian.
00:52:29Don't be stupid.
00:52:30This has nothing to do with the baby.
00:52:34She's flaunting.
00:52:35She just wants to tell her friends that she gave 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,
00:52:49one day you're gonna wake up with nothing left.
00:52:54Then what do I do?
00:52:57Don't worry, my sweet boy.
00:52:59You're gonna handle everything, okay?
00:53:02Okay.
00:53:03Let's go.
00:53:05Tessa, Dorian, what were you guys chatting about out there?
00:53:07Oh, actually, um, the doctor said the bill was due.
00:53:10Do you think you could take care of that?
00:53:11Uh, Iris, 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 this hospital immediately.
00:53:34What?
00:53:35What? Leave the hospital?
00:53:37A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt before 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 for that kind of emergency.
00:54:01I'm not here for comfort.
00:54:03I'm here to protect the baby and 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 and 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.
00:54:28Tessa, 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.
00:54:36Now, come on.
00:54:37We are leaving this hospital.
00:54:44Dorian.
00:54:49Dorian.
00:54:50Dorian.
00:54:52Iris, 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.
00:55:38You're right, Mom.
00:55:39Thanks for always having my back.
00:55:41I'm here for you.
00:55:45Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you.
00:55:51Iris, if you want to stay in this hospital, fine.
00:55:55But you're going to pay for it yourself.
00:55:58I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you waste one more cent of my son's money.
00:56:05Uh, something's wrong with me, baby.
00:56:10You called an entrepreneur, please.
00:56:11No.
00:56:12Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:56:18I'll see Iris first.
00:56:31You wait here.
00:56:35Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:56:53Dorian, what happened to you?
00:56:55Okay.
00:56:56I'll let my mom out pay for it.
00:56:58Hi, could you settle the bill with us, please?
00:57:08See, she had the cash all along.
00:57:12Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.
00:57:18She doesn't feel the pressure now.
00:57:20She's never going to know what it takes to keep a family afloat.
00:57:24You're right, Mom.
00:57:25You always are.
00:57:26You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.
00:57:29That's right.
00:57:30Very precious baby boy.
00:57:33I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:57:34Your card was declined.
00:57:36You're short about $20,000.
00:57:39If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.
00:57:47This is everything I have left.
00:57:49She really broke.
00:57:51It doesn't make any sense.
00:57:52With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.
00:57:56Yeah, well that's because I cover all the household bills.
00:57:59And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff.
00:58:02Vitamins, supplements, to hospital visits.
00:58:04I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.
00:58:07What on earth has she been through these past three years?
00:58:11Brian, can you just...
00:58:13Please just consider it alone.
00:58:15Just...
00:58:15I swear I'll wait 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?
00:58:30Oh, she's still hiding money.
00:58:32I know she is.
00:58:33Dory, please, please just help me pay the 20 grand.
00:58:42I swear I'll wait back.
00:58:45Don't fall for her act.
00:58:47I know what you're playing at.
00:58:49You're trying to squeeze money out of Dory.
00:58:52And then you're just gonna run away without paying a cent.
00:58:56How could you say that?
00:58:57Oh, okay.
00:59:03Okay, Dorian.
00:59:05You know what, I think something's going to happen with the baby.
00:59:07The baby's in trouble.
00:59:08You're not fooling anyone.
00:59:11If you're really so broke,
00:59:13why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?
00:59:17You've already drained him dry.
00:59:20What more do you want from him?
00:59:22Dorian, Dorian, please, I'm begging you.
00:59:25Please just say something.
00:59:26Hey, don't fall for her drama.
00:59:29You have two choices.
00:59:30Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital,
00:59:33or she can pay for everything herself.
00:59:36And if she doesn't want to do either,
00:59:39then we don't want the baby anyway.
00:59:42Okay.
00:59:44I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:59:47Okay.
00:59:48I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:59:50Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.
00:59:52And when you started your business, I supported you.
00:59:56I gave you everything that I have.
01:00:00I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments.
01:00:02I have nothing left.
01:00:03Please save us the sob story.
01:00:07You ruined your own ties with your family.
01:00:10Don't blame Dorian for that.
01:00:12If you want to stay here, then fine.
01:00:15Pay for it yourself.
01:00:17But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.
01:00:26Please, can I just see a doctor of hers?
01:00:29Oh my God, Iris.
01:00:31Stop acting like the victim.
01:00:33Now it all makes sense.
01:00:35You stayed here to show off.
01:00:36When did you become so shallow?
01:00:39You think I'm shallow?
01:00:41Well, aren't you?
01:00:42If you were really worried about the baby,
01:00:46why wouldn't you take out a loan?
01:00:48This is 2025.
01:00:49There's apps for that.
01:00:51You want me to take out a highly predatory,
01:00:55high interest loan to give birth.
01:00:57Who's going to be your grandchild?
01:00:59I mean, how could you be so heartless?
01:01:01Are you really guilt tripping me right now?
01:01:05You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby.
01:01:09God, in my day, we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth.
01:01:13We gave birth at home for free.
01:01:16I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.
01:01:20This is ridiculous.
01:01:21I didn't marry Dorian for the money.
01:01:23Stop lying!
01:01:25If you weren't after our money,
01:01:29why haven't you taken out the loan yet?
01:01:32Quit stalling!
01:01:40Bastards!
01:01:41How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!
01:01:55Where's Dorian?
01:02:05My baby's coming any second now.
01:02:07What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?
01:02:10He'll be here soon.
01:02:12He's going to get his mom.
01:02:14Seriously, thank you, Anita.
01:02:16For being here.
01:02:18I'm your best friend.
01:02:20I wouldn't miss this for the world.
01:02:22I'm going to go grab the doctor.
01:02:37Chairman Astor, this gift just came in for you.
01:02:40The CEO of Cartelier is a custom cheetah brooch.
01:02:44It's the purest droopy on the planet.
01:02:48Not bad.
01:02:52I'm about to have the baby.
01:03:05What?
01:03:07Virus!
01:03:09What?
01:03:11Are you really walking out on your family?
01:03:13Dad!
01:03:15You were wrong about Dorian, okay?
01:03:18He doesn't care about money!
01:03:20He loves me!
01:03:22And I choose him!
01:03:24If you walk through that gate, you are no longer my daughter.
01:03:30And you'll have nothing to do with the Astor name ever again!
01:03:38Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad.
01:03:42And I love you, dad.
01:03:47I always will.
01:03:50But I choose him, because our love is real, dad.
01:03:54And I'm going to prove it to you.
01:03:56And I'm going to prove it to you.
01:04:10Congratulations, sir.
01:04:12You're going to be your grandfather.
01:04:17Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.
01:04:20He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.
01:04:25Still, Iris chose him.
01:04:28And now they're about to have a baby.
01:04:31Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.
01:04:35Get the finest gifts money can buy.
01:04:37I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.
01:04:44Guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.
01:04:47If not, uh, he'll have me to answer to.
01:05:10Mr. Holland!
01:05:11Mr. Holland, what's wrong?
01:05:12What happened?
01:05:12You sounded like you were having a heart attack.
01:05:15Hurry, I need to get the Baltimore Tiara from the vault.
01:05:18I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.
01:05:20You're giving that away?
01:05:22I just got word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on earth, is having a baby today.
01:05:26We must congratulate it with the most spectacular gift.
01:05:28If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion.
01:05:33We're talking billions, Jessica!
01:05:35Billions!
01:05:36Now go!
01:05:37Run!
01:05:37A 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.
01:06:02Mom, 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.
01:06:09Oh, Dorian!
01:06:12Your wife's just being dramatic.
01:06:14And 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, tomorrow, she's going to want to live
01:06:26in 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.
01:06:36Good.
01:06:37When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.
01:06:42Okay, Mom.
01:06:43Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.
01:06:49Oh, my precious baby.
01:06:51Iris, placenta previa is serious.
01:06:57You 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.
01:07:09Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.
01:07:12You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.
01:07:21That's the door in your ear.
01:07:28Look at this room.
01:07:31This isn't a hospital.
01:07:33She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.
01:07:36Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-laws gave birth at local clinics and it only cost

01:08:22Then what do I do?
01:08:24Don't worry, my sweet boy.
01:08:27You're going to handle everything, okay?
01:08:29Okay.
01:08:30Let's go.
01:08:32Tessa Torian, what were you guys chatting about out there?
01:08:35Oh, actually, um, the doctor said the bill was due.
01:08:38Do you think you could take care of that?
01:08:39Oh, Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs?

01:09:10Could you just think about Dorian for once?

01:09:56Tessa, this is between my husband and I.
01:09:59Please just give us a moment.
01:10:00I'm his mother.
01:10:02Dorian's opinion is my opinion.
01:10:04Now, come on.
01:10:05We are leaving this hospital.
01:10:11Dorian!
01:10:17Dorian!
01:10:20Iris, let's just go to a local clinic.
01:10:23Raising a kid is expensive.
01:10:25We need to save where we can.
01:10:26That's right.

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.
01:11:09Mm-hmm.
01:11:11I'm here for you.
01:11:13Unlike 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.
01:11:36I think you called an entrepreneur.
01:11:39No.
01:11:40Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
01:11:56I'll see Iris first.
01:12:13You wait here.
01:12:13Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
01:12:21Dorian, what happened to you?
01:12:23Okay.
01:12:24Okay, I'm all about to pay for it.
01:12:31Guy, could you settle the bill with us, please?
01:12:35You see?
01:12:36She 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.
01:12:56That's right.
01:12:57You're a precious baby boy.
01:12:59I'm sorry, ma'am.
01:13:02Your card was declined.
01:13:04You're short about $20,000.
01:13:07If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.
01:13:14This is everything I have left.
01:13:16Is she really broke?
01:13:19Doesn't make any sense.
01:13:20With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.
01:13:24Well, that's because I cover all the household bills.
01:13:26And 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.
01:13:34What on earth has she been through these past three years?
01:13:38Dorian, can you just...
01:13:41Please, just consider it alone.
01:13:44I swear, I'll leave 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.
01:14:07Dorian, please, please 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.
01:14:20And 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.
01:14:32And when I think something's wrong with the baby,
01:14:35the baby's in trouble.
01:14:36You're not fooling anyone.
01:14:38If 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?
01:14:49Dorian, Dorian, please, I am begging you.
01:14:52Please just say something.
01:14:54Okay.
01:14:55Don'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.
01:15:04And if she doesn't want to do either, then we don't want the baby anyway.
01:15:09Okay.
01:15:11I'll listen to you, Mom.
01:15:15Okay.
01:15:16I'll listen to you, Mom.
01:15:17Dorian, 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 payments.
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.
01:15:48It hurts.
01:15:54Please, can I just see a doctor of hers?
01:15:57Oh my god, Iris.
01:15:58Stop 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've become 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 Doran for the money.
01:16:51Stop lying!
01:16:54If you weren't after our money, why haven't you taken out the loan yet?
01:17:00Quit stalling.
01:17:04That hurts!
01:17:05Bastards!
01:17:09How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!
01:17:12That hurts!
01:17:13Holy crap.
01:17:14I don't know.
01:17:15I don't know.
01:17:16To be honest.
01:17:17No.
01:17:18There we go!
01:17:18Go away!
01:17:19I know.
01:17:20I know.
01:17:20Look.
01:17:21I know what you are.
01:17:22I don't know.
01:17:23I know.
01:17:24I know.
01:17:25I know.
01:17:25I know.
01:17:26I know.
01:17:26I know.
01:17:27I know.
01:17:28I know.
01:17:29I know.
01:17:29I know.
01:17:30I know.
01:17:30I know.
