00:00:00Where's Dorian?
00:00:09My baby's coming any second now.
00:00:11What kind of husband
00:00:12disappears in a moment like this?
00:00:14He'll be here soon.
00:00:16He's going to get his mom.
00:00:18Seriously, thank you, Anita.
00:00:20For being here.
00:00:22I'm your best friend.
00:00:24I wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:00:27I'm gonna go grab the doctor.
00:00:30Chairman Astor,
00:00:42this gift just came in for you.
00:00:44The CEO of Cartelier
00:00:46is a custom cheetah brooch.
00:00:48It's the purest ruby
00:00:49on the planet.
00:00:52Not bad.
00:00:53Dad.
00:01:05I'm about to have the baby.
00:01:09What?
00:01:11Virus!
00:01:13What?
00:01:14Are you really walking out on your family?
00:01:18Dad!
00:01:19You were wrong about Dorian, okay?
00:01:22He doesn't care about money!
00:01:24He loves me!
00:01:26And I choose him!
00:01:27If you walk through that gate,
00:01:31you are no longer my daughter!
00:01:34And you'll have nothing to do with the Esther name ever again!
00:01:37Even if you never call me your daughter again,
00:01:45I'm still your dad!
00:01:48And I love your dad!
00:01:51I always will!
00:01:53But I choose him!
00:01:55Because our love is real, dad!
00:01:58And I'm gonna prove it to you!
00:02:00Congratulations, sir.
00:02:16You're gonna be your grandfather.
00:02:21Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.
00:02:24He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish,
00:02:27let alone a family.
00:02:28Still,
00:02:30Iris chose him.
00:02:32And now they're about to have a baby.
00:02:35Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.
00:02:39Get the finest gifts money can buy.
00:02:41I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.
00:02:47Guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.
00:02:52If not,
00:02:54he'll have me to answer to.
00:02:58Mr. Holland!
00:03:15Mr. Holland, what's wrong?
00:03:16What happened?
00:03:17You sounded like you were having a heart attack.
00:03:19Hurry!
00:03:19I need to get the Baltimore Tiara from the vault.
00:03:22I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP!
00:03:24You're giving that away?
00:03:26I just got word that Miss Astor,
00:03:28the richest heiress on earth,
00:03:29is having a baby today.
00:03:30We must congratulate it with the most spectacular gift.
00:03:33If we pull this off,
00:03:34we could have a partnership with the Astor Dominion.
00:03:37We're talking billions, Jessica!
00:03:39Billions!
00:03:40Now go!
00:03:41Run!
00:03:42Now!
00:03:42A private hospital?
00:04:01Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?
00:04:04She's burning through your money like it grows on trees.
00:04:07Mom, please don't get worked up.
00:04:09The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.
00:04:11It's serious.
00:04:12There's a real risk of bleeding.
00:04:14Oh, Dorian!
00:04:17Your wife's just being dramatic.
00:04:19And who does she think she is?
00:04:20Some royal heiress or something?
00:04:22This is why we're bleeding money.
00:04:25If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today,
00:04:29tomorrow, she's going to want to live in Nanny.
00:04:31And then what?
00:04:32A private chef?
00:04:34A butler?
00:04:35What do I do, Mom?
00:04:36You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?
00:04:40No, not yet.
00:04:41Good.
00:04:42When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.
00:04:46Okay, Mom.
00:04:47Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.
00:04:53Oh, my precious baby.
00:04:55Iris, placenta previa is serious.
00:05:01You need to rest and take it easy.
00:05:03We've got you covered around the clock.
00:05:05We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe.
00:05:13Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.
00:05:16You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.
00:05:25Tessa, we're in your ear.
00:05:27Look at this room.
00:05:35This isn't a hospital.
00:05:37She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.
00:05:41Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-law's gave birth at local clinics,
00:05:46and it only cost three grand total.
00:05:50But your wife is spending two grand a night.
00:05:54I don't know, Mom.
00:05:56I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.
00:05:58Oh, Dorian.
00:06:01Don't be stupid.
00:06:04This has nothing to do with the baby.
00:06:06She's flaunting.
00:06:08She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite.
00:06:12I warned you.
00:06:14She is not as sweet as she seems.
00:06:18If you keep letting her burn through your money like this,
00:06:21one day you're going to wake up with nothing left.
00:06:26Then what do I do?
00:06:29Don't worry, my sweet boy.
00:06:31You're going to handle everything, okay?
00:06:34Okay.
00:06:35Let's go.
00:06:38Tessa, Dorian.
00:06:39What were you guys talking about?
00:06:40Oh, actually, the doctor said the bill was due.
00:06:43Do you think you could take care of that?
00:06:44Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs?
00:06:50A room like this runs 50, 60 grand.
00:06:53Dorian busts his ass every day to support this family.
00:06:58Stop blowing through his savings and leave this hospital immediately.
00:07:03But leave the hospital.
00:07:10A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt before the baby's even born.
00:07:15Could you just think about Dorian for once?
00:07:21Tessa, I love him.
00:07:24I'm not wasting anyone's money.
00:07:26I chose this hospital because I had placentia previa.
00:07:29I could bleed out.
00:07:29And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency.
00:07:33I'm not here for comfort.
00:07:36I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.
00:07:40Dorian, I know how hard you work.
00:07:44Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable and then we can transfer, I promise.
00:07:51Son, don't fall for that.
00:07:54We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight.
00:07:56If she drags this out, it's going to be thousands more down the drain.
00:08:01Tessa, this is between my husband and I.
00:08:04Please just give us a moment.
00:08:06I'm his mother.
00:08:07Dorian's opinion is my opinion.
00:08:09Now, come on.
00:08:10We are leaving this hospital.
00:08:12Ow!
00:08:16Dorian!
00:08:18Dorian!
00:08:20Iris, let's just go to a local clinic.
00:08:29Raising a kid is expensive.
00:08:31We need to save where we can.
00:08:32That's right.
00:08:33We're not the bad guys here.
00:08:35Tons of women give birth at local hospitals.
00:08:38But you are a greedy little leech.
00:08:42And I'm not letting you bleed my son dry.
00:08:45What do you think he is?
00:08:47Your personal ATM?
00:08:49I'm not trying to waste anyone's money.
00:08:51I have a low-lying placenta.
00:08:53And if something goes wrong, the baby could die.
00:08:57Don't go soft on her.
00:08:59Let her play you.
00:09:01Every pregnant woman has complications.
00:09:04Just because it's risky doesn't mean it's going to happen.
00:09:06If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest of your life.
00:09:11You're right, Mom.
00:09:13Thanks for always having my back.
00:09:15Mm-hmm.
00:09:16I'm here for you.
00:09:18Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you.
00:09:25Iris, if you want to stay in this hospital, fine.
00:09:29But you're going to pay for it yourself.
00:09:31I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you waste one more cent of my son's money.
00:09:41Something's wrong with me.
00:09:42I think you call an entrepreneur.
00:09:44No.
00:09:45Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:09:52Mm-hmm.
00:09:52I'll see Iris first.
00:10:18You wait here.
00:10:19Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:10:27Dorian, what happened to you?
00:10:29Okay.
00:10:30I'll let you know how I'll pay for it.
00:10:32Guy, could you settle the bill with us, please?
00:10:41See?
00:10:42She had the cash all along.
00:10:44Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.
00:10:51If she doesn't feel the pressure now, she's never going to know what it takes to keep a family afloat.
00:10:57You're right, Mom.
00:10:58You always are.
00:10:59You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.
00:11:02That's right.
00:11:03Very precious baby boy.
00:11:06Ooh.
00:11:06I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:11:08Your card was declined.
00:11:09You're short about $20,000.
00:11:12If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.
00:11:15This is everything I have left.
00:11:23Is she really broke?
00:11:24Doesn't make any sense.
00:11:26With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.
00:11:29Yeah, well, that's because I cover all the household bills.
00:11:32And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff.
00:11:36Vitamins, supplements, to hospital visits.
00:11:38I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.
00:11:40What on earth has she been through these past three years?
00:11:43Dorian, can you just...
00:11:46Please, just consider it alone.
00:11:48Just...
00:11:49I swear, I'll pay you back.
00:11:52Absolutely not.
00:11:54Don't fall for this.
00:11:55Every wife stashes emergency cash.
00:11:59Did you see how she pulled that card out like it was nothing?
00:12:02Do you think it's her only one?
00:12:04She's still hiding money.
00:12:06I know she is.
00:12:13Dorian, please.
00:12:14Please, just help me pay the 20 grand.
00:12:16I swear, I'll pay you back.
00:12:19Don't fall for her act.
00:12:21I know what you're playing at.
00:12:23You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.
00:12:26And then you're just going to run away without paying a cent.
00:12:30How could you say that?
00:12:31Dorian, I think something's going to happen with the baby.
00:12:40The baby's in trouble.
00:12:42You're not fooling anyone.
00:12:44If you're really so broke.
00:12:47Why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?
00:12:51You've already drained him dry.
00:12:54What more do you want from him?
00:12:56Dorian?
00:12:57Dorian, please.
00:12:58I'm begging you.
00:12:59Please just say something.
00:13:01Don't fall for her drama.
00:13:03You have two choices.
00:13:04Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital, or she can pay for everything herself.
00:13:09And if she doesn't want to do either, then we don't want the baby anyway.
00:13:16Okay.
00:13:17I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:13:21Okay.
00:13:22I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:13:24Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.
00:13:27And when you started your business, I supported you.
00:13:30I gave you everything that I have.
00:13:32I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments.
00:13:36I have nothing left.
00:13:38Please save us the sob story.
00:13:42You ruined your own ties with your family.
00:13:44Don't blame Dorian for that.
00:13:46If you want to stay here, then fine.
00:13:49Pay for it yourself.
00:13:51But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.
00:13:58Dorian, it hurts.
00:14:00Please, can I just...
00:14:02I just see a doctor of hers.
00:14:04Oh, my God, Iris.
00:14:05Stop acting like the victim.
00:14:07Now it all makes sense.
00:14:09You stayed here to show off.
00:14:10When did you become so shallow?
00:14:13You think I'm shallow.
00:14:15Well, aren't you?
00:14:16If you were really worried about the baby,
00:14:20why wouldn't you take out a loan?
00:14:22This is 2025.
00:14:24There's apps for that.
00:14:25You want me to take out a highly predatory...
00:14:29a high interest loan to give birth.
00:14:31Who's going to be your grandchild?
00:14:33I mean, how could you be so heartless?
00:14:35Are you really guilt-tripping me right now?
00:14:39You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby.
00:14:43God, in my day,
00:14:44we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth.
00:14:47We gave birth at home for free.
00:14:49I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.
00:14:54This is ridiculous.
00:14:55I didn't marry Dorian for the money.
00:14:58Stop lying!
00:15:00If you weren't after our money,
00:15:03why haven't you taken out the loan yet?
00:15:06Quit stalling!
00:15:07Dr.
00:15:10God, I hurt!
00:15:15Bastards!
00:15:16How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!
00:15:22Alone?
00:15:23Are you seriously making Iris take out alone?
00:15:26Oh my god, Iris.
00:15:28Are you okay?
00:15:30Okay? I got you. Okay. What is wrong with you? She's your wife. She's about to give birth.
00:15:39This is a family matter. Stay out of it.
00:15:41Stay out of it? You expect me to watch you and your mom abuse my best friend?
00:15:49Okay. Okay.
00:15:52Nurse, nurse, please check her. She's in so much pain. Is the baby coming?
00:15:57She's in early labor. Internal bleeding started. We have to admit her now.
00:16:02Sir, you have to pay the hospital bill immediately.
00:16:04You haven't paid the bill yet? That's why you want her to take out a loan?
00:16:09She's about to give birth to your child and you want her to pay by herself?
00:16:13What kind of man does that?
00:16:15Thank God. At least my baby girl has a good friend by her side.
00:16:19Shut your mouth. This has nothing to do with you.
00:16:23Get your shit together. Doctor said she's high risk. This isn't about luxury. It's about survival.
00:16:29She's here to keep herself and the baby alive.
00:16:31What the hell do you know? It's not like you've ever given birth before.
00:16:35Exactly. You're just a loud mouth that thinks that screaming makes you right.
00:16:41You're just like your friend. A gold digger.
00:16:43If you care so much, why don't you pay the damn 20 grand yourself?
00:16:47We're not paying a cent. She can give birth on the floor if she wants.
00:16:53What's the worst that can happen?
00:16:56You two are unbelievable.
00:17:01Touch my mom and there's more where that came from.
00:17:04Even if you are Iris' friend.
00:17:08Touch my mom and there's more where that came from.
00:17:10Anita?
00:17:11Don't fight them. We're gonna...
00:17:13We're in.
00:17:15Just don't hurt her.
00:17:16I will take out the load.
00:17:18Aw, couldn't win with your words.
00:17:21You had to use your fists, huh?
00:17:22How classy.
00:17:24I'm so sorry, Mom. Are you all right?
00:17:26Oh.
00:17:27Oh.
00:17:29I'll be okay.
00:17:30For your sake.
00:17:31You've never been a good daughter-in-law.
00:17:36Your parents didn't even send a dime for the wedding.
00:17:40Do you know that when Mrs. Smith's son got married, her in-laws sent 50 grand cash?
00:17:47And they gave her a brand new Tesla.
00:17:49Not only did you show up with nothing, now you're trying to empty his bank account, too.
00:17:56I'm sorry, baby.
00:17:57Baby, you deserve so much better than that.
00:18:05Nurse, you could use it a little bit with this quickly, please.
00:18:08See?
00:18:09Was it that hard?
00:18:11That's what it means to be part of the Bates family.
00:18:14But you're not off the hook yet.
00:18:16What else could you possibly want from me?
00:18:18Well, you're still married to Dorian, so he could be responsible for your debt.
00:18:24But you took out the loan on your own, right?
00:18:26You should be the one to pay it back.
00:18:28So here's what's going to happen.
00:18:31You're going to sign a simple statement that says that Dorian is not responsible for any of it.
00:18:39Who the hell did you just say?
00:18:41I said, I want you to sign this disclaimer that exempts Dorian from any liability for your debt.
00:18:50No way!
00:18:51I am not just having this baby alone.
00:18:54I mean, this is Dorian's child, too.
00:18:56And more importantly, this child isn't yours.
00:18:59The financial decisions are solely between my husband and I.
00:19:04How dare you raise your voice to me?
00:19:07Do you think you're hot shit just because Dorian knocked you up?
00:19:12You are nothing but a disrespectful little brat speaking to your mother-in-law that way.
00:19:19Iris, seriously, you should treat my mother with more respect.
00:19:22Are you hearing this?
00:19:24I was just standing here sticking up for you, and then she gives me this attitude.
00:19:29When she pushes the baby out, you're going to need to put your foot down with her.
00:19:33Iris, you've already taken out the loan, so why are you dragging your feet signing the disclaimer?
00:19:42Sign the damn disclaimer!
00:19:44You two are unbelievable.
00:19:47This baby has your family's DMs.
00:19:50Refusing financial liability is one thing, but putting her health at risk right before birth?
00:19:57It's diabolical.
00:19:59Like my mom said, all pregnancies come with some level of risk, but you don't see every pregnant woman spending a fortune, do you?
00:20:06If Iris wants to stay in this plush-ass hospital, then she can cough up the cash for it.
00:20:10Bastard!
00:20:12Oh!
00:20:13Don't fight them.
00:20:14It's not worth it, okay?
00:20:16Dorian, I will sign the disclaimer.
00:20:20But you have to promise me that you will not tell my dad.
00:20:25I don't want him to worry about me.
00:20:29It took a long time to get him to accept you.
00:20:33And with his baby, he's born.
00:20:35I just wanted to have a complete meal.
00:20:38What does Iris' dad do?
00:20:40Not sure.
00:20:41I only met him once.
00:20:43Just seemed like your average Joe.
00:20:45So he's just a nobody?
00:20:47Huh.
00:20:49Except Dorian.
00:20:50Who the hell does your father think he is?
00:20:54Some billionaire CEO.
00:20:56He's just a broke-ass bum who didn't even go to his daughter's wedding.
00:21:02He doesn't give a damn about you.
00:21:06Never even loved you anyway.
00:21:17Dad?
00:21:18You're already here.
00:21:22Yes, baby.
00:21:24Daddy's here now.
00:21:29If I got here any later, God knows what these two would have done to you.
00:21:35So you're Iris' father.
00:21:37You got here just in time.
00:21:39As her father, I demand that you sign this disclaimer on her behalf.
00:21:48So you leave my dad out of this?
00:21:50Oh my God, Dorian.
00:21:52Your wife just won't stop yelling at me.
00:21:54Iris, if you can't start showing my mom some basic respect, I'm going to have to stop playing nice.
00:21:59Iris, is this the man you gave up everything for?
00:22:04Dorian is a wonderful man, but his mom is gaslighting.
00:22:09I mean, he can't see how severe the situation is with the baby.
00:22:13Iris, all she's trying to do is help.
00:22:15If she wanted to help, then she wouldn't be here causing a scene!
00:22:19Oh, Mr. Astor, if you're so concerned, why don't you sign the form and take on your daughter's 20 grand of debt?
00:22:30Mr. Astor, don't listen to her.
00:22:33First, she forced Iris to take out a loan with a crazy high interest rate, and now she wants you to pay it back.
00:22:38She's way out of line.
00:22:39Well, Dorian sure as hell isn't going to pay it.
00:22:42Iris' debt has shit to do with him.
00:22:45I'm just trying for everyone to stop ganging up on my boy.
00:22:49Anita, keep digging your nose into our family's business, and I'll have security drag your ass out.
00:22:59Iris, is this the true love you threw your whole life away for?
00:23:07And we are going to be living happily ever after, even if we have absolutely nothing.
00:23:15Because our love is real, Dad, and I'm going to prove it to you.
00:23:25Have you got a screw loose?
00:23:27You can't have true love without money.
00:23:30This is real life, not some fairy tale.
00:23:33Now quit stalling and sign the damn disclaimer.
00:23:37Your mom is making my dad sign this disclaimer to you, we're just going to stand there?
00:23:43Iris, all I've ever asked is that you be sympathetic to my financial constraints, and not be wasteful with money.
00:23:48How is that still so hard for you to understand?
00:23:51I can't believe I'm about to sign off on a measly $20,000.
00:23:57Word gets out, I'll be the laughingstock of every boardroom in town.
00:24:02Iris, if this is really the happily ever after you want, I'll do it for you and the baby.
00:24:12No.
00:24:34Do this contract, Nolan void.
00:24:36I gave you an out
00:24:46This is how you react
00:24:47You are leaving this hospital right now
00:24:51I don't care where that baby is born
00:24:53But it sure as hell is not going to be here
00:24:56Shut up
00:24:57This baby is between Dory and I
00:25:03So stop getting in between us
00:25:05You are a monstrous disgrace of a woman
00:25:09What did you just call me?
00:25:13A disgrace
00:25:14Dory
00:25:15I stood up for you through everything
00:25:20When you wanted to chase your dreams
00:25:24And start your business
00:25:26I gave you all of my savings
00:25:28And now I swallow my pride
00:25:34And I take out this predatory loan
00:25:37Because you
00:25:39You don't even want to pay for the birth of your own child
00:25:43And now you're asking my dad
00:25:45To sign this bullshit disclaimer
00:25:49Doryan
00:25:50You should be ashamed of yourself
00:25:54Iris
00:25:55I was not trying to
00:25:56Doryan
00:25:57Don't fall for her act
00:25:59She is just a spoiled
00:26:01Materialistic snob
00:26:04Who insists on giving birth
00:26:06In the most expensive hospital
00:26:08You're right mom
00:26:09Iris
00:26:10Stop acting like the victim
00:26:13You chose this place
00:26:15To show off
00:26:16Trying to make yourself look rich
00:26:18And important
00:26:18Look
00:26:19If you don't want to sign the disclaimer
00:26:21Fine
00:26:22But don't expect any help from me
00:26:24When the baby comes
00:26:24So
00:26:25You would hurt your back on your baby
00:26:30Because of money
00:26:33Okay
00:26:35Fine
00:26:37And I will raise this baby
00:26:41On my own
00:26:42Doryan
00:26:48I want a divorce
00:26:49I want a divorce
00:26:50Iris
00:27:10Iris
00:27:12Stop
00:27:13What do you mean you want a divorce?
00:27:15Do you not love me anymore?
00:27:16I feel like I should be asking you
00:27:20If you ever really love me
00:27:22Doryan
00:27:22What were you doing in there
00:27:23When your control freak of a mother
00:27:25Was harassing me
00:27:26Enforcing my dad
00:27:27To sign the disclaimer
00:27:28I told you not to talk about my mom like that
00:27:30All she's trying to do is help
00:27:32Well that is what you think
00:27:33Then you should just live with your mom
00:27:35For the rest of your life
00:27:36Iris
00:27:37Have you ever actually looked in the mirror?
00:27:41You're trash
00:27:42And trash
00:27:44Doesn't get to talk to my son like that
00:27:47Touch me with your filthy hands
00:27:49Doryan
00:27:51First she was just spouting threats at me
00:27:54And now
00:27:55She's actually flat out assaulting me
00:27:59You're a complete psycho
00:28:01Iris
00:28:02Did you just push my mom?
00:28:03I mean you're acting like a fucking lunatic
00:28:06You're just gonna pin this on me
00:28:07Because I'm psycho?
00:28:09Iris
00:28:10Iris
00:28:10I gave you sound financial advice
00:28:14Out of the kindness of my own heart
00:28:16And instead of being grateful
00:28:18You attack me
00:28:20Is that not exactly what a psycho would do?
00:28:24No
00:28:24It's not
00:28:26Look at this
00:28:28You bitch
00:28:33How dare you fucking hit me
00:28:36I'm gonna fucking kill you
00:28:38Touch my daughter again
00:28:41And you're dead
00:28:42Dorian
00:28:47They're ganging up on me
00:28:49They're trying to beat up your poor old mother
00:28:51Iris
00:28:52I was blind to marry someone like you
00:28:55No Dorian
00:28:56I was the blind one
00:28:57I was the one who abandoned my family
00:29:00For a scumbag like you
00:29:01You know I really thought that you were different
00:29:04I thought that you were a good man
00:29:07A man who didn't care about money
00:29:10A man who truly loved me
00:29:12But it turns out
00:29:14You were the type of man
00:29:16Who abandoned their own child
00:29:18Over twenty thousand dollars
00:29:20And let their mother manipulate my father
00:29:22Into signing a stupid agreement
00:29:25Iris
00:29:26You took out the loan yourself
00:29:29Give me one good reason
00:29:31Why my son should be responsible for your debt
00:29:35Honestly
00:29:36I've never seen anyone so shameless
00:29:39You know my Dorian was a real catch back then
00:29:44And out of all the girls he could have chosen
00:29:47He ended up with a useless wife like you
00:29:52A broke ass bitch who couldn't even afford to pay for the wedding
00:29:56You know since you've married my son
00:30:00You've done nothing for our family
00:30:02I mean you could barely afford the mortgage and car payments
00:30:06You only forked out a few thousand dollars
00:30:09When Dorian was trying to start his own business
00:30:11And now you are trying to bleed him dry
00:30:15This boy covers the mortgage and the car payments
00:30:18And she gave him money to start a business
00:30:19That sounds like enough to me
00:30:21I mean what do they want from her?
00:30:23Like clearly the one splitting courage to die
00:30:25My wife like that
00:30:26I'd be living the dream
00:30:27Right?
00:30:28That guy's mom looks super controlling
00:30:30She's probably trying to drive a wedge between her son and his wife
00:30:33What the hell do you idiots know?
00:30:36I'm just trying to protect my son's interests
00:30:38You don't know shit
00:30:39Unlike some moms
00:30:41Mine actually cares about me
00:30:42So shut up and stay out of our business
00:30:44And you
00:30:45You didn't even send a dime
00:30:48When Dorian and Iris got married
00:30:50And now you show up empty handed again today
00:30:55Who says I came empty handed?
00:31:02Who says I came empty handed?
00:31:05Oh please
00:31:06Look at these fake designer clothes
00:31:09So my clothes are fake now?
00:31:12No shit they are
00:31:14Cartelier is a Parisian jewelry brand
00:31:19And you are wearing a blatant counterfeit of their cheetah brooch
00:31:24Their most iconic item
00:31:26If everything that you were wearing were legit
00:31:29Your outfit would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars
00:31:32If you really had the means
00:31:35To afford top of the line stuff
00:31:37Why would Iris leave her family
00:31:40And work three jobs
00:31:43Just to support herself?
00:31:46My baby girl
00:31:47You've been through so much
00:31:50These last few years
00:31:51Shut up!
00:31:53Oh!
00:31:54Don't yell at me
00:31:55You shrew
00:31:57Dorian and I get to decide
00:32:00Where and when that baby gets born
00:32:03Looks like the only way
00:32:07To get you two to shut up
00:32:09Is to bring out my gifts
00:32:12Eric, bring the gifts in
00:32:18Now
00:32:20You are still keeping up that act?
00:32:24We're here boss
00:32:26Did you hire a group of actors?
00:32:41Did you really think that we were going to fall for this?
00:32:44Iris, this entire thing started
00:32:46Just because I wanted you to save a little money
00:32:48Are you seriously blowing it this far out of proportion?
00:32:51No, no, no, sweetie
00:32:52Leave it
00:32:53I'm actually dying to see
00:32:55What luxury gifts this 20 grand in debt
00:32:59Broke old bum brought with him
00:33:14Good God
00:33:18I've never seen that much hard cash
00:33:20And with this many cases
00:33:22It's got to be
00:33:22What?
00:33:237 or 8 million?
00:33:24No way
00:33:25That's at least 10 mil
00:33:27This was supposed to be
00:33:29Your wedding gift
00:33:30You mean this 10 million dollars?
00:33:32If it's going to be mine?
00:33:34Open the rest
00:33:44These are the gifts I've prepared for Iris' baby
00:33:47That's the pink star
00:33:49The world's most expensive diamond
00:33:51Along with Bulgari's classic emerald jewel set
00:33:55Only the best for my grandchild
00:33:57Holy shit, the pink star diamond
00:34:00The jewels in that case are worth almost 100 million
00:34:03Those are the deeds to seven mansions
00:34:07All worth around 70 million dollars
00:34:10Because seven is Iris' lucky number
00:34:12This is my grandchild's trust fund
00:34:17Worth over 200 million in assets
00:34:20I've also arranged for the child to have
00:34:241 million dollars per month
00:34:26Until they turn 18
00:34:28200 million dollar trust fund
00:34:33For a child that's not even born yet?
00:34:35That's crazy
00:34:36If you two hadn't decided to abuse Iris today
00:34:41All of this could have been yours
00:34:43That's an insane amount of wealth
00:34:46Man, that guy was so close to being the luckiest son-in-law in the world
00:34:51And him and his mom were just calling her broke
00:34:54They burned bridges with their super-rich in-laws
00:34:56Over a little 20 grand
00:34:57I guess that's what the dude gets for being such a mom
00:35:01If his evil mom had just treated her daughter-in-law with the minimum fair decency
00:35:07She would have all that money in her pocket right now
00:35:09This should have been mine
00:35:10It was all supposed to be mine
00:35:13You didn't speak a single word in Iris' defense today
00:35:20If you just stood up for your wife
00:35:22This could have all belonged to you
00:35:24You're supposed to be my daughter's husband
00:35:27My grandchild's father
00:35:29But you just stood there
00:35:32While your crazy mother tormented Iris
00:35:35And put the baby at risk
00:35:38You are a goddamn coward
00:35:42Mom, look what you've done
00:35:45This is all your fault
00:35:46Dorian, don't be rash
00:35:48Think about it
00:35:50If Iris really was filthy rich
00:35:53Why would she need to take out a loan
00:35:55Why would she need to work three jobs
00:36:00Just to pay for the wedding
00:36:01No
00:36:02We're getting played
00:36:05Iris and her father are putting on an act
00:36:09Oh, stay back
00:36:14Don't take one more step
00:36:16What?
00:36:18You're gonna beat up an old lady
00:36:20In front of all these witnesses?
00:36:23You stole from me, okay?
00:36:26The thief doesn't get to play the victim
00:36:28You actually had me there, old man
00:36:33For a second
00:36:34I actually thought that you were rich
00:36:37But look what we have here
00:36:40A fake cartelier broach
00:36:43It's a fake?
00:36:44Fake as they come
00:36:46My best friend is cartelier California's regional manager
00:36:51You see, cartelier cheetah broach
00:36:57Have red ruby eyes
00:36:59And black diamond bodies
00:37:01But yours has white diamonds
00:37:04It's nothing but a shoddy knockoff
00:37:08And if this is fake
00:37:11Then all those other luxury gifts are fake as well
00:37:15Wait, mom
00:37:20So you're saying the cash, jewelry, even the trust fund?
00:37:23They're all fake?
00:37:24Don't be silly, Dorian
00:37:26If he really had money
00:37:29Why would he be wearing a fake broach?
00:37:33That's enough
00:37:35My best friend Sadie
00:37:37Is cartelier California's regional manager
00:37:41I'll just give her a call
00:37:42Tell her to come down here
00:37:44To prove that this is a fake
00:37:46Sadie
00:37:48It's me
00:37:50I have someone here
00:37:51With a blatant fake cartelier broach
00:37:55I need you to come down here
00:37:58To prove that it's a counterfeit
00:38:00Well
00:38:07The craftsmanship on this broach
00:38:11Is impeccable, I must say
00:38:13However
00:38:13We don't make cheetah broaches
00:38:16With a white diamond
00:38:18Tessa
00:38:19This is counterfeit
00:38:21Tell me where you got it
00:38:23So that I can trace it back to its source
00:38:25Where do you think?
00:38:28From Iris' wannabe rich daddy over there
00:38:32And get this
00:38:34He also showed up
00:38:36With several million dollars in cash
00:38:39Property deeds, jewelry
00:38:41I mean, can you believe this guy?
00:38:44Well, I'll be damned
00:38:47I can't believe the nerve of them
00:38:51To try and pull a fast one on you like this
00:38:53I can confidently say
00:38:56That all of this stuff you see here
00:38:58Everything
00:38:59It's all fake
00:39:02Fake, you say?
00:39:08Then let's double check
00:39:10Well
00:39:27Must be fake
00:39:28To break that easily
00:39:30Spit it out
00:39:31Where did you get the counterfeit brooch?
00:39:35Well, ma'am
00:39:36Your brand custom designed it for me
00:39:39It's worth over two million dollars
00:39:42Now that you've destroyed my brooch
00:39:44How do you plan on compensating me for it?
00:39:48Wow
00:39:49Grandpa's gone off his rocker
00:39:51You're just some broke old geezer
00:39:54Wearing fake jewelry
00:39:56What are you talking about?
00:39:58Compensation
00:39:58Let's face facts
00:40:00I caught you
00:40:02Wearing
00:40:02A knockoff
00:40:04Of our brand
00:40:05And parading around here
00:40:07With all this fake currency
00:40:08I'm going to call headquarters
00:40:10To report you
00:40:11And then
00:40:11I'm calling the police
00:40:13Our CEO
00:40:14Mr. Holland
00:40:15Is the richest man in the city
00:40:17You cross him
00:40:18And you're dead
00:40:20Who's Mr. Holland again?
00:40:23Sir
00:40:23Mr. Holland
00:40:24Is the one who gifted you
00:40:25The brooch this morning
00:40:26Give me a break
00:40:29Mr. Holland
00:40:30Is our CEO
00:40:32He would never
00:40:33In a million years
00:40:35Give you
00:40:35Such a precious gift
00:40:37You broke old geezer
00:40:39Who do you think you are?
00:40:42The richest fucking man on earth?
00:40:46You think
00:40:47You
00:40:47Can fake it
00:40:49Until you make it?
00:40:50I am going to call
00:40:52Headquarters
00:40:53To report you
00:40:54And then
00:40:54I'm going to call the police
00:40:55You can rot in jail
00:40:57For selling counterfeit goods
00:40:58Tessa dear
00:41:01Please
00:41:02Keep an eye on them
00:41:03For me will you?
00:41:03We cannot let this
00:41:04Family of swindlers
00:41:06Escape
00:41:06They deserve to spend
00:41:07The rest of their lives
00:41:08Behind bars
00:41:09The ten million dollars cash
00:41:16The two hundred million dollar
00:41:19Trust fund
00:41:20All fakes
00:41:22The jig is up
00:41:23The jig is up
00:41:23You're nothing but a couple of low-class crooks
00:41:28You know what?
00:41:30It's one thing to buy counterfeit goods
00:41:33But forging currency is a federal offense
00:41:37I just can't wait for you to waste away in prison with your loser daddy
00:41:44I just can't wait for you to waste away in prison with your loser daddy
00:41:54Yeah, yeah, you're totally right
00:41:58Just because you say it's fake definitely means it's fake
00:42:03Dorian
00:42:05See, this is the woman that you married
00:42:08Nothing but a cheap scammer
00:42:11Who teams up with her father
00:42:14To trick us with shoddy fakes
00:42:17And now that the cat's out of the bag
00:42:20They're not even denying it
00:42:22So this is the real you, Iris
00:42:24A woman who enlists her father to try and scam her own husband
00:42:27You never loved me at all, did you?
00:42:30I bet you orchestrated this whole charade just to get your hands on my money
00:42:34You disgust me, Iris
00:42:37No, Dorian, you disgust me
00:42:39God, how did I even end up with a complete fucking idiot?
00:42:44How dare you talk about my son that way?
00:42:47I can't wait until the cops show up
00:42:51And throw your sorry ass in jail
00:42:53Okay, well don't get ahead of yourself
00:42:55When the cops get here
00:42:57They're gonna ask you to compensate for the bridge that you destroyed
00:43:00And when they do
00:43:01Don't come begging us for mercy
00:43:03Iris, I believed you back then
00:43:08I thought you left your family because you loved me
00:43:11Turns out, you're actually just a shameless fraud this whole time
00:43:14Dorian, can you just
00:43:15Please, just
00:43:17Use your frickin' brain for once
00:43:19You do not have anything that is worth stealing in the first place
00:43:24I was the one that covered all of our household bills and expenses
00:43:27I was the one that covered our mortgage
00:43:29And our car
00:43:30Everything
00:43:31Iris, you know what?
00:43:33I'm done
00:43:34I am tired
00:43:37And I am exhausted
00:43:38And I really do not want to deal with you right now
00:43:42And so, actually, you know what?
00:43:44Starting today, Dorian
00:43:45You mean nothing to me
00:43:47And to my child
00:43:50Let's go, Deb
00:43:52Hey!
00:43:54Stop right there!
00:43:55You can get divorced
00:43:57But this baby belongs to our family
00:43:59And it's not going anywhere
00:44:02You out of your mind
00:44:03Let me go
00:44:04Iris!
00:44:07Alright, so much
00:44:14I'm зак dusty
00:44:17Watch your checkers
00:44:18Please
00:44:18Please
00:44:19Please
00:44:19Please
00:44:21Please
00:44:21Please
00:44:25Please
00:44:34Please
00:44:34If anything happens to my daughter, you'd better believe I'll send you both to hell!
00:44:49You think threats from a down-and-out scammer like you scares us?
00:44:54Plus, your daughter's the one who lost her footing.
00:44:57I swear, if that baby doesn't make it out of there alive, I will make sure that your daughter doesn't either.
00:45:10Iris, stay with me.
00:45:12Iris, the baby is almost here. I need one big push. Let's go.
00:45:22Why is she so quiet?
00:45:24Why can't I hear her cry?
00:45:39The baby's heartbeat is stopped. We need to focus on stabilizing the mother.
00:45:45No, baby. Please don't leave me.
00:45:54Please, God, please save my baby.
00:46:06Mom is here. Come back, my baby.
00:46:09You just got my daughter sent to the ICU!
00:46:20I have a mind to kill you right now!
00:46:23What? Stay back!
00:46:25What are you gonna do? Hit me in front of my son?
00:46:28Stay away from my mom!
00:46:32The reason the baby is fighting for its life in the ICU is because Iris was acting all crazy.
00:46:36The baby's heart is starting again. It's a miracle. She's alive! Quick, go save the baby. She's okay. She's alive.
00:46:57You heartless monster! Your wife and child are in the brink of death in the ICU, and instead of worrying about them, you're defending your piece of shit. Mom?
00:47:08What if the baby really dies because of this?
00:47:11Do you not have even the slightest remorse?
00:47:14I'll be happy if the baby dies.
00:47:19Did you just say?
00:47:22That baby would end up just like its mom. Another greedy, lying con artist. Better to just not have it in the first place.
00:47:29I hate to break it to you, but while you were praying for my daughter's downfall, our baby's death, God sent her back to me. She survived.
00:47:51And after today, you will never see her again.
00:47:58Iris, thank God. How are you feeling?
00:48:02I'm alright.
00:48:05She almost didn't make it, but she's a fighter. She helped out.
00:48:14That baby belongs to the Bates family.
00:48:18If my son hadn't been working his ass off to support your pathetic, broke ass, you wouldn't have even been able to afford a basic hospital.
00:48:30Go ahead. Divorce my son.
00:48:34But that baby is not going anywhere with you.
00:48:39Like it or not, that thing is coming home with us.
00:48:48What are you doing?
00:48:58You almost killed my baby and you were trying to take her from me.
00:49:02Over.
00:49:03My.
00:49:04Dead.
00:49:05Body.
00:49:07Iris! Iris, calm down!
00:49:08Get off of her, Iris! You're acting like a fucking lunatic!
00:49:11My mom's right. You're not fit to raise my child.
00:49:16With a violent abuser for a mother, the only place this kid's going to end up is juvie.
00:49:20Iris, you can go wherever you want, but you're leaving the baby with us.
00:49:23I'll consider it compensation for surviving three years of marriage to a broke, scamming psycho like you.
00:49:28My baby is a human being. She is not an object for you to bargain over!
00:49:37Dorian Mates, marrying you was the biggest mistake of my entire life. And I get it. I get what you're doing.
00:49:44You think because I am poor that I am easy to push over. You have no idea who you are messing with.
00:49:56That brooch that my father has is worth more than you could ever make in ten lifetimes.
00:50:03That brooch that my father has is worth more than you could make in ten lifetimes.
00:50:09Are you still trying to pass for some hotshot with that plastic fake brooch?
00:50:18You are nothing but a destitute, blood-sucking leech.
00:50:23Actually, it's embarrassing how shameless you are.
00:50:27If I hadn't seen through your facade, you and your fraudster father would still be bleeding my son dry as we speak.
00:50:36Don't worry, baby. Mommy's got it under control.
00:50:42This family makes me sick.
00:50:45They're not going anywhere with that baby.
00:50:50The only place that these cheap fuckers are going is prison.
00:50:56Stay strong, Iris. I can't let them have my baby.
00:50:59The only place that these cheap fuckers are going is prison.
00:51:05Eric, collect all the broken pieces of the brooch and assess the damages.
00:51:11You hopeless fools. The CEO of the Cartelier made this custom for the chairman of the Aster Dominion.
00:51:27It's the only one of its kind in the world. You know what that means, right?
00:51:29You're going to be repaying this debt for the rest of your lives.
00:51:34The Aster Dominion? That's the world's number one financial conglomerate.
00:51:38They're worth over 700 billion on the stock market.
00:51:41Isn't there Chairman Alagaster? The richest man in the world?
00:51:45Wait, and his daughter's name is Iris, too.
00:51:48That must be her. That's Iris Aster. The Aster Iris.
00:51:51Are you really part of the Aster Dominion?
00:51:57I'm not just part of it.
00:51:59My father's the chairman of the Aster Dominion and I am his sole heir.
00:52:04And my baby will be my successor.
00:52:08I didn't tell you who I was because I gave up all of it to be with you.
00:52:14And I recently got back in contact with my father to tell him the good news about the baby.
00:52:19I was planning on telling you about my family background, but now I'm glad I didn't.
00:52:25Because you turned out to be a total piece of shit, Dorian.
00:52:31You are not worthy of being my husband, let alone the father of my child.
00:52:37Oh, come on. The fake goods were bad enough.
00:52:41But now you're trying to impersonate the world's richest family?
00:52:46It just keeps getting better and better.
00:52:48So because your tiny little brain can't wrap around this fact, it's fake.
00:52:55So because your tiny little brain can't wrap around this fact, it's fake.
00:53:01Fine. Believe what you want.
00:53:04You're really full of shit.
00:53:05If you really were the world's richest heiress, why would you leave your fortune behind to marry my son?
00:53:16And for such an important occasion, wouldn't the hospital be swarming with gifts?
00:53:20I don't see any A-list celebrities coming here to celebrate the birth of your heir.
00:53:26All that you need to know is that my baby is coming home with me.
00:53:31And that if either of you try to do anything, I will make sure that you both rot in hell.
00:53:34Mr. Holland, you spent eight million on this tiara to win the Sotheby's bid ten years ago.
00:53:45Are you sure you want to give it away?
00:53:47Hurry. I need to get the Pultiward Sierra from the vault. I need it delivered to Miss Aster ASAP.
00:53:54You're giving that away?
00:53:56If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Aster Dominion.
00:54:01We're talking billions, Jessica! Billions!
00:54:03You've still got a lot to learn, Jessica. This is Irish Aster we're talking about. The heiress to the Aster Dominion.
00:54:10I only found out yesterday she was giving birth. All that matters is that we get this gift delivered to her on time.
00:54:20Sir? Someone's claiming to have found a counterfeit cheetah brooch.
00:54:25I hate it when people bother me with this petty crap. This is what I have a team of lawyers for.
00:54:29Step on it! I need to be the first one to deliver Miss Aster a baby gift!
00:54:35No, no, no, no, no, no! You're just a... a filthy skank! You're not even fit to shine my shoes!
00:54:43And you think you can make me burn in hell? Oh, no!
00:54:47Enough of your bullshit! I'm gonna teach you a lesson now!
00:54:59You've got some nerve trying to mess with the Bates family!
00:55:04You've got some nerve trying to mess with the Bates family!
00:55:10But guess what? It's not gonna work!
00:55:13Come on down! Come on, Dorian! Come on down!
00:55:14Come on down! Rip up this fake monopoly money!
00:55:19Show them what happens when you mess with the Bates family!
00:55:22Dorian, I will give you one final warning!
00:55:28Don't join your mother's temper tantrum!
00:55:32If you do, I promise it will be the end of you.
00:55:35I promise it will be the end of you.
00:55:37I promise it will be the end of you.
00:55:39And I will give you one final warning.
00:55:42Don't join your mother's temper tantrum.
00:55:45If you do, I promise it will be the end of you.
00:55:52Bullshit!
00:55:54Your empty threats don't scare us!
00:55:57Don't let that bitch deceive you!
00:56:00You don't tear up the cash right now!
00:56:04She's just gonna keep scamming me!
00:56:09Come on! Listen to mommy!
00:56:12Tear it up! Rip it up!
00:56:13Rip it up! Come on! Do it! Rip it up!
00:56:22Come on! Rip it up!
00:56:24Dorian, wake up!
00:56:26If you don't, your mom's gonna be the death of you!
00:56:29Shut the fuck up!
00:56:30My mom's the only person who's ever loved me for me.
00:56:33She'd never do anything to hurt me.
00:56:34You're just trying to turn me against her.
00:56:36That's what happens when you fuck with the Bates family.
00:56:46Remember, Iris. You brought this on yourself.
00:56:49I just wanted you to save a little money, but you and your dad had to orchestrate this crazy plan to try and scam me?
00:56:55Now, you're living with the consequences.
00:56:57Exactly.
00:56:58My son is an absolute catch. A real 10 out of 10.
00:57:03And what do you do? You try to scam him with all those fake goods?
00:57:08You should have been grateful to have a husband like Dorian.
00:57:12I've had enough of your games, Iris.
00:57:15Let's get divorced.
00:57:17Hear that?
00:57:19He wants out, divorce him, and get the hell away from the Bates family.
00:57:24As you wish.
00:57:26But it's the defendants in this case.
00:57:28Are you prepared to rot in jail for the rest of your lives?
00:57:33Are you prepared to rot in jail for the rest of your lives?
00:57:37Defendants? What are you talking about?
00:57:39Defendants, what the hell kind of scheme are you cooking up now?
00:57:43I'm suing the both of you.
00:57:45For defamation, for destruction of personal property, and for attempted murder.
00:57:49You're suing us!
00:57:52Your scammer dad is trying to distribute counterfeit goods?
00:57:57And we should be suing you!
00:57:59Iris, we were married for three years. We have a child.
00:58:02Do you really want to drag me to court?
00:58:04You really have the nerve to talk about our child.
00:58:05When you sat there while your mother abused me and almost let the baby die.
00:58:11Don't try to push the blame onto my mom.
00:58:13Yeah, she might have a unique way of showing her love for me, but at least she loves me.
00:58:17You're the one who started all this. You insulted her first.
00:58:20Forget it. I'm not gonna waste my breath on a vile woman like you.
00:58:25We're getting divorced. Now.
00:58:26I've been waiting for this day to come.
00:58:31Sign an Instagram. I don't ever want to see you again.
00:58:36You know, you really are as dumb as it gets.
00:58:42Did you even think about the consequences that you would face if these gifts were real?
00:58:51Did you even think about the consequences that you would face if these gifts were real?
00:58:56That's impossible. It's impossible that they're not fake.
00:59:02Playtime's over, bitch.
00:59:04Dorian already told you to beat it.
00:59:07Now quit stalling and sign the damn divorce papers.
00:59:11The Bates family wants nothing to do with you.
00:59:13I will sign the papers.
00:59:15But you have to give me back what's mine.
00:59:17Give you back what's yours?
00:59:18We have nothing of yours.
00:59:21And not to mention that you've been on unpaid maternity leave for the past two weeks.
00:59:28And Dorian has been covering everything.
00:59:31I already told you.
00:59:34Your money and your baby belong to the Bates family.
00:59:39So if you want to leave, you leave with nothing.
00:59:44Nothing.
00:59:45So, Dorian, you already know what your wonderful mother thinks of me.
00:59:51What about you?
00:59:52I'm with her.
00:59:53She's only ever done what's best for me.
00:59:55What's best for you is ruining your chance of becoming a billionaire
01:00:00and turning you into a bankrupt criminal.
01:00:04Shut up, you old fraud.
01:00:07I was tired of you like two hours ago.
01:00:09And you don't even think about trying to get a penny out of Dorian.
01:00:16Iris, you married me with nothing.
01:00:18Now you're leaving with nothing.
01:00:19Isn't that exactly how it should be?
01:00:21Stop painting yourself as a victim.
01:00:24Three years ago, I gave you an emerald ring.
01:00:27I want it back. Nothing else.
01:00:29An emerald ring?
01:00:30Iris, you gave him that ring?
01:00:36It's the only thing your mother left behind when she passed.
01:00:40You wasted three years of love on this asshole.
01:00:44Asshole.
01:00:47But after today, I know you'll never let that happen again.
01:00:52You've grown up, Iris.
01:00:55Why does the emerald on this ring look so fake?
01:01:00Just give it back to me, and I will sign the divorce papers.
01:01:03We will have a clean break.
01:01:05Fine. Whatever.
01:01:07Wait!
01:01:08You gave this ring to my son, which makes it Bates' family property.
01:01:14There's no way we're giving it back to you.
01:01:16Please, Dorian, this is my only request.
01:01:19If you give me back the ring, they'll not only sign the divorce papers,
01:01:21I will pay off the mortgage and the car.
01:01:25Please.
01:01:26This is the last thing my mother left.
01:01:32What are you doing?
01:01:34What do you think I'm doing?
01:01:35This is my son's ring, so I will do whatever the hell I want to with it.
01:01:44No!
01:01:48No!
01:01:50Oh, look at you!
01:01:53Going so crazy over this dumb ring.
01:01:56Isn't it just a cheap glass ring?
01:01:59I wouldn't be caught dead wearing it.
01:02:01Only a broke, ignorant skank like you would turn this piece of trash into a rare kind of treasure.
01:02:11I said, just give it back!
01:02:13Oh!
01:02:14Look at you!
01:02:15With all this going crazy, you'd think it was the real deal.
01:02:19I said, give it back.
01:02:22Stay back.
01:02:24Take one more step, and I will smash it to the ground.
01:02:29And I will smash it to the ground.
01:02:34Dorian, I have done so much for you.
01:02:37I paid for the mortgage, and I supported you with your business.
01:02:41When have I ever done you wrong?
01:02:43What more can you ask of me?
01:02:46Quit the whining.
01:02:47You sound like nails on a chalkboard.
01:02:51It's just like a stupid old ring, alright?
01:02:54It is not a stupid old ring!
01:02:56It is an Aster family heirloom!
01:02:59And it is the last thing that my mother left me!
01:03:01And it is...
01:03:03And it is absolutely priceless.
01:03:06Fine, Mom, just give it back.
01:03:09It says a lot about the type of person she is, that she's willing to go this far over some trashy ring.
01:03:12Get the ring!
01:03:14And be careful with it!
01:03:16Give something to the Bates family, and you're not getting it back.
01:03:29I swear to God, you're pure evil.
01:03:41All you've been doing since the second you got here is abuse and humiliate Iris.
01:03:46Look at you.
01:03:49Hopeless.
01:03:51Cowardly.
01:03:53Shit for brains, Mama's boy.
01:03:55I bet your mommy still wipes your ass every time you go potty.
01:04:00Now look what you've done.
01:04:02You've destroyed her mother's family heirloom.
01:04:05Your monsters in human form.
01:04:07Absolutely disgusting film.
01:04:11You shut the fuck up!
01:04:14One more word out of you, and I'm gonna make you get on all fours, lick my shoes, and beg for forgiveness!
01:04:21Did you just hit me?
01:04:25Nobody hits me!
01:04:27You wanna go, Grandpa?
01:04:31Let's go!
01:04:33Hands off my mom, Iris!
01:04:35Oh!
01:04:37Baby!
01:04:38You were a scumbag!
01:04:40You destroyed the only thing that my mother gave me, and I swear on her name that I will make you both pay!
01:04:46I am calling the clocks!
01:04:47You two are getting locked up!
01:04:51You two are getting locked up!
01:05:06Mr. Astor!
01:05:07Mr. Astor!
01:05:13It's an honor. I'm Byron Holland, CEO of Cartel Year.
01:05:17I sent over the cheater brooch earlier this morning.
01:05:20Appreciate it.
01:05:22That's the CEO of Cartel Year.
01:05:24I've seen him on magazine covers before.
01:05:26Wow, he treated my girl as a father with such respect.
01:05:30Who is he?
01:05:31If I had to guess, he's the chairman of the Astor Dominion.
01:05:35The richest man on the planet.
01:05:37Oh my god, that tiara is shining.
01:05:39Mr. Astor, I heard your daughter had a deep earth today.
01:05:42I prepared a small gift to celebrate.
01:05:44Oh, thank you. That's very nice.
01:05:46But really, there's no need.
01:05:47Oh no, he just turned down Mr. Holland in front of everyone?
01:05:52Well, that tiara doesn't look fake to me.
01:05:54What if Iris and her dad are actually the real deal?
01:05:57No, that's impossible.
01:05:59There's no way a bottom feeder like her would be the world's richest heiress.
01:06:04Think about it, Dorian.
01:06:06Why would a rich heiress leave everything behind
01:06:10and work three jobs just to marry a regular guy like you?
01:06:13That tiara must be a fake.
01:06:15Don't fall for it, Dorian.
01:06:16What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:20What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:23And a CEO, please!
01:06:27More like a deadbeat actor they hired off the street.
01:06:31Mom, you really think they're faking it?
01:06:33Of course they are, Dorian.
01:06:36Look, you're lucky that you're divorcing her.
01:06:39Not only did she show up with all those knockoff goods,
01:06:42she brought in a group of cheap actors to back her up.
01:06:47Are you kidding me?
01:06:49This is the Baltimore tiara.
01:06:51I dropped eight million at Sotheby's on it, and I have the certificate to prove it.
01:06:54Oh, yeah.
01:06:55And how do we know the certificate's not fake?
01:06:59I mean, if you can forge currency and impersonate the CEO of Cartelier,
01:07:07faking a paper's nothing.
01:07:08You're insane!
01:07:09Everything you say is nonsense!
01:07:12I'm insane?!
01:07:14You're the one pissing me off!
01:07:18I'm gonna fuck you up!
01:07:19You crazy old bitch!
01:07:31I'm gonna kill you!
01:07:33Dorian!
01:07:34Baby!
01:07:36Did you see what they did here, Mommy?
01:07:39Your ex-wife hired those gangsters to kill me!
01:07:43I'm gonna call the cops!
01:07:44I'm gonna get you all arrested!
01:07:46Go find the best show you can!
01:07:49We need to get that tiara fixed now!
01:07:51Y-yes, sir!
01:07:54They can't be repaired!
01:07:56I'm gonna make you regret it!
01:08:01You can't just hit her like that! That's assault!
01:08:04You people are the real criminals!
01:08:05Here we go again.
01:08:07You're just like your mom.
01:08:09Always pointing fingers, never owning up to anything.
01:08:13Nothing but dead weight!
01:08:14Your mom just trashed someone else's property and you're calling him the criminal for standing up for himself!
01:08:22Mr. Holland!
01:08:24What brings you here?
01:08:26You know her?
01:08:28No, no, of course not!
01:08:29You may not remember me, but I'm Sadie Smith, regional manager for Cartelier's California branch!
01:08:35In fact, that whole cheetah brooch scandal, I was the one that called it into headquarters!
01:08:40I couldn't have known it was gonna cause such a fuss, much less bring you here in person!
01:08:45Cheetah brooch you talk about?
01:08:47Where is it?
01:08:48Let me take a look!
01:08:50Where is it?
01:08:51Let me take a look!
01:08:53Yes, absolutely!
01:08:54Uh, you!
01:08:55You there with the fake brooch!
01:08:57Show it to Mr. Holland immediately!
01:08:59Oh, that fake brooch!
01:09:02Mr. Holland gave it to me himself!
01:09:05Why did you ask him if it's real or not?
01:09:08Mr. Holland, the CEO of Cartelier!
01:09:12Tessa, everything you see is fake!
01:09:17Why don't we double check?
01:09:19It must have been fake for it to break so easily!
01:09:23Seriously?
01:09:25You're gonna keep making stuff up when the CEO is standing right here in front of you?
01:09:30Sir, please don't take it personally that men like him can't afford the real thing, so they masquerade in fakes!
01:09:36Frankly, I think it damages our image!
01:09:38I have a friend who's a journalist at CBS!
01:09:41If you'd like, I could put in a call to her so that she can bring this whole scandal to the news media!
01:09:47You wanna take this to the media?
01:09:50You wanna bring the media in on this?
01:09:52Of course!
01:09:53I think it would be best to protect our image!
01:09:55Or it will ruin the company!
01:09:57Fucking idiots!
01:09:59Mr. Holland!
01:10:00Why would you do that?
01:10:01I was just trying to protect the company!
01:10:04Because you deserved it!
01:10:05Mr. Holland!
01:10:08You arrogant asshole!
01:10:11Who the fuck do you think you are hitting my friend like that?
01:10:15Do you even know who she is?
01:10:17This is Sadie Smith, regional manager of Cartelier California.
01:10:23She's your friend?
01:10:24No!
01:10:25No, no, no!
01:10:26No, no, no!
01:10:27Don't, no, no, no!
01:10:28Hey!
01:10:29You gotta back me up on this!
01:10:30What?!
01:10:31All I did was crush that cheap-ass tiara to prove that it was fake!
01:10:32And now everyone's lashing out at me!
01:10:33Hey, hippie!
01:10:34Call the cops!
01:10:35Hey, you got back me up on this.
01:10:38But all I did was crush that cheap-ass tiara to prove that it was fake.
01:10:44And now everyone's lashing out at me.
01:10:46Hey, hippie, call the cops.
01:10:48I want everything documented.
01:10:50I'm suing all of them.
01:10:52You smashed the tiara?
01:10:54Yes.
01:10:55You idiot.
01:10:56This is our CEO of Cartelier, Mr. Holland.
01:11:01Apologize to him right now.
01:11:02Peace, Mr. Holland.
01:11:06I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:10I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:14You didn't just hit me.
01:11:15You destroyed the gift I brought from this virus.
01:11:19It's not just any tiara.
01:11:21It's Baltimore tiara.
01:11:23A cultural relic.
01:11:25I paid millions for at Sotheby's.
01:11:27The highest bid.
01:11:30Something you would never afford, even if you sold everything you own.
01:11:33If you're the CEO of Cartelier, and you brought a present for Iris Astor?
01:11:41No way.
01:11:43You morons.
01:11:45You two still don't understand.
01:11:47That man that you mocked for wearing a fake brooch is Alec Astor, chairman of the Astor
01:11:55Dominion.
01:11:56The richest man on earth.
01:11:59With a net worth of over 700 billion.
01:12:02And this is Miss Iris Astor.
01:12:06His only daughter.
01:12:08Sole hair to his entire empire.
01:12:11Mr. Astor, you're the world's richest man.
01:12:13That means I could have been son-in-law of the wealthiest man in the world.
01:12:17I would have this whole fortune.
01:12:19It could be mine.
01:12:20So this bitch really is the world's richest, Iris?
01:12:27Dammit.
01:12:28If this keeps going, I'll lose Dorian.
01:12:31And everything I've got.
01:12:34Dorian, don't listen to her.
01:12:36Iris lied to you for years about who she really was.
01:12:39She's a manipulative bitch.
01:12:41Even if you two stay married, do you think she'd even give you a cent?
01:12:45Say one more word about my daughter and I'll rip your tongue out!
01:12:53Iris, what do you want to do about this?
01:12:57These two have done enough to lose everything they've ever owned and spend the rest of their
01:13:02lives in prison.
01:13:11Hey, Iris.
01:13:13Please.
01:13:14We're family, right?
01:13:17I promise.
01:13:19Dorian and I didn't really mean to hurt you.
01:13:21We didn't actually know who you were.
01:13:23After three years together, do you think you can find it in your heart?
01:13:27Just let this go.
01:13:30How dare you kid trip Miss Astor?
01:13:35Didn't you say that you hated me?
01:13:37That you never wanted to see me again?
01:13:42Iris.
01:13:43Iris, baby.
01:13:44Iris.
01:13:44Iris.
01:13:45This is all my fault.
01:13:46I know I messed up and I'm sorry.
01:13:48Really.
01:13:49You used to love me.
01:13:50Doesn't that still mean anything?
01:13:51Are you really going to let me go to jail?
01:13:53But our daughter?
01:13:55She needs to see her dad.
01:13:56I swear.
01:13:57I will never listen to another word my mom says.
01:14:01From now on, I will only listen to you.
01:14:03You almost got our baby killed because you couldn't stand up to your own mother.
01:14:07And you have the nerve to ask that of me?
01:14:11You're a bastard, Dorian.
01:14:14We're done.
01:14:17Marrying you was the worst mistake that I ever made in my entire life.
01:14:22You know, your stupidity cost you every single cent you could have got from the Astor fortune.
01:14:35Dad, we'll let the lawyers and the cops handle the rest of this.
01:14:38I want every single cent reimbursed from the tiara.
01:14:42As for Dorian, I won't be pressing charges for the child's sake.
01:14:46But he will be spending the rest of his life paying back the debt that he owes.
01:14:51As for Tessa, if she can't pay back the money that she owes,
01:14:55that she will spend the rest of her life rotting in jail.
01:14:58It's what she deserves for trying to kill my child.
01:15:03Thanks.
01:15:04I'm a zombie.
01:15:04Officers, we'll let you take it from here.
01:15:07No, no, no.
01:15:09No.
01:15:09No, no, no.
01:15:10Don't do this.
01:15:11No.
01:15:15Iris, congrats on making it out of hell.
01:15:20Let's go home.
01:15:23Thank you all for coming.
01:15:25I've called this meeting to share some good news.
01:15:28As of today, Iris Aster, rightful heir to the Aster Dominion,
01:15:33has officially returned.
01:15:45Thank you all for the warm welcome.
01:15:48Starting today, I will be stepping in as the new CEO for the Aster Dominion.
01:15:52So, can we start our first meeting?
01:15:55These fucking assholes.
01:16:08Don't they know I was the son-in-law of the world's richest man?
01:16:11Yesterday, Iris Aster, the newly appointed CEO of the Aster Dominion,
01:16:17celebrated her daughter's first birthday,
01:16:19renting out the entire Four Seasons in Beverly Hills.
01:16:22Cameras spotted Miss Aster in fully head-to-toe designer
01:16:25with her baby Ivy in her arms.
01:16:28The young heiress is set to inherit one of the world's largest private fortunes.
01:16:32Wait.
01:16:33Why didn't I think of this sooner?
01:16:36It works or not, I'm still Ivy's dad.
01:16:48Hello.
01:16:49Some of you may have heard of Iris Aster,
01:16:52the new CEO of the Aster Dominion.
01:16:55I'm her ex-husband.
01:16:56Miss Aster, you need to see this.
01:17:03What?
01:17:04It's her ex-husband, live, spreading rumours about you.
01:17:08We're married for three years.
01:17:11But in the end, she and her billionaire father, Alec Aster,
01:17:15kicked me out just because I wasn't rich enough.
01:17:17And the worst part is, they've taken our daughter, Ivy.
01:17:22This is outrageous.
01:17:23I cut Dorian some slack because he's Ivy's father,
01:17:26and this is how he repaid me?
01:17:27By slandering me online?
01:17:30It's starting fast.
01:17:31Miss Aster, people are calling for a boycott.
01:17:33And now our company's stock just dropped by 8%.
01:17:36I never thought it'd end up like this.
01:17:47Iris and her father,
01:17:49they've used their power to ruin my life.
01:17:51They took my daughter away.
01:17:53Before I even got to hold her.
01:17:55And now,
01:17:56they're forcing me to pay
01:17:57hundreds of millions in debt
01:17:59that I can't afford.
01:18:01They even had my mom thrown in prison.
01:18:04I'm not doing this to hurt anybody.
01:18:06I just want to see my little girl again.
01:18:08I don't have any power.
01:18:09I don't have money.
01:18:11All I can do
01:18:12is speak the truth
01:18:13and hope somebody out there hears me.
01:18:15Please,
01:18:17help me get my daughter back.
01:18:20Miss Aster,
01:18:21the cords are furious.
01:18:23They're demanding you to fix this immediately.
01:18:25What the hell do you want?
01:18:32What the hell do you want?
01:18:34Come on, Iris.
01:18:35We were married for three years.
01:18:37Don't act like I'm some stranger now.
01:18:39I know you still care.
01:18:40I just, uh,
01:18:41I don't want Ivy
01:18:42growing up without her dad.
01:18:43All right?
01:18:44I promise.
01:18:45This time,
01:18:45I'll do whatever you say.
01:18:46I won't listen to anyone else.
01:18:48Dorian,
01:18:48I cut you some slack
01:18:49and this is how you repay me?
01:18:50This isn't a threat, Iris.
01:18:52I'm doing this because I love you.
01:18:53If you're willing to take me back,
01:18:55marry me again,
01:18:56then I'll take the videos down.
01:18:57Shut down all the rumors.
01:18:59I swear,
01:19:00your stock won't drop another cent.
01:19:02Wow.
01:19:03You know,
01:19:03you just burned the last bit of mercy
01:19:05that I had left for you.
01:19:06Fine.
01:19:08I will see you in court.
01:19:10I'm going to make sure
01:19:11the entire world knows
01:19:12exactly who you are.
01:19:16Ungrateful bitch.
01:19:17I'm still Ivy's biological father.
01:19:22You had your chance, Iris.
01:19:24Now,
01:19:25I'm going to destroy you.
01:19:28Eric,
01:19:29I need you to go get a lawyer.
01:19:30I'm going to be suing Dorian
01:19:31for defamation
01:19:32and for federal securities laws.
01:19:33Misaster.
01:19:35You will win in court.
01:19:36No doubt.
01:19:37The damage to your reputation,
01:19:38I don't think it can be undone.
01:19:41Wait.
01:19:42What if we take him
01:19:43on one of those
01:19:44reality courtroom shows?
01:19:45We lay it all out there
01:19:46for the whole country to see.
01:19:48We'll set the record straight.
01:19:50I like that idea.
01:19:51And if we're going to do this,
01:19:52we're going to make sure
01:19:52we do it so the whole world
01:19:53sees exactly who he is.
01:19:55And we are not going to hold back.
01:19:57Plaintiff Dorian Bates,
01:20:05you are suing Iris Astor
01:20:07for deprivation of custody
01:20:08of your daughter, Ivy Astor.
01:20:10You want to modify
01:20:11the custody agreement.
01:20:12Is that correct, sir?
01:20:13Yes, Your Honor.
01:20:15She took my daughter away
01:20:16on the basis of having
01:20:17a wealthier family.
01:20:18And now,
01:20:19she's forcing me to pay back
01:20:20$100 million in debt.
01:20:22Order in the court.
01:20:28This is not a talk show.
01:20:30Defendant,
01:20:30do you have any evidence
01:20:31to counter his claims?
01:20:33Thank you, Your Honor.
01:20:35Mr. Bates is lying.
01:20:37I have here the divorce agreement
01:20:39that he forced me to sign
01:20:40the day that I gave birth.
01:20:42He left me in Ivy.
01:20:44I believe that a father
01:20:45who files for divorce
01:20:46the same day that their daughter
01:20:47enters this world
01:20:49does not deserve any custody.
01:20:52I believe that a father
01:20:53who files for divorce
01:20:54the same day that their daughter
01:20:55enters this world
01:20:56does not deserve any custody.
01:20:58Only because she lied to me first,
01:21:00Your Honor.
01:21:01She hid her real identity
01:21:02and pretended to be
01:21:03from a poor family.
01:21:04If I'd known she was the heiress
01:21:05to the wealthiest family
01:21:06in the world,
01:21:07I never would have left.
01:21:09Sir, you're saying
01:21:09it's perfectly fine
01:21:11to divorce your wife
01:21:12if she's poor.
01:21:13No, no, Your Honor.
01:21:14That's not what I'm saying.
01:21:17As for the debt, Miss Astor,
01:21:19can you provide any evidence
01:21:20in your defense?
01:21:21Yes, Your Honor.
01:21:22My father brought gifts
01:21:24for my daughter
01:21:25the day that I gave birth
01:21:26to her worth
01:21:27over $100 million.
01:21:29As you can see here,
01:21:31my ex-husband and his mother,
01:21:33they destroyed
01:21:33absolutely everything.
01:21:35Show them what it means
01:21:36to fuck with the Bates family.
01:21:40I simply want compensation
01:21:41in a fair and legal manner.
01:21:43Wow.
01:21:44This guy's shameless.
01:21:45He asked for a divorce
01:21:46the day his wife gave birth,
01:21:48trashed all his daughter's gifts,
01:21:50and now he has the audacity
01:21:51to blame her for causing
01:21:52all this mess?
01:21:53The way they treated her,
01:21:54it's a miracle
01:21:55she didn't lose the baby.
01:21:56Honestly,
01:21:57the Astor heiress is smart
01:21:58not to let him have custody.
01:22:00He's not a father,
01:22:00he's a selfish leech
01:22:02who only cares about money.
01:22:03He's not a father,
01:22:07he's a selfish leech
01:22:08who only cares about money.
01:22:09What the hell do you two know?
01:22:11This is clearly all her fault.
01:22:13If she told me
01:22:13her real identity earlier,
01:22:15none of this would have happened.
01:22:16I tried to tell you
01:22:17at the hospital,
01:22:17but you didn't listen,
01:22:18and suddenly this is my fault now.
01:22:20I, you're...
01:22:21Warner?
01:22:23Mr. Bates,
01:22:24I've heard more than enough
01:22:25to back the defendant's claims.
01:22:27If all you've got
01:22:28are excuses and attitude,
01:22:30I'm ready to make my ruling.
01:22:31Your Honor, please.
01:22:33I'm still Ivy's biological father.
01:22:34Doesn't her opinion matter?
01:22:35Just trust her.
01:22:36We'll see.
01:22:36She loves me more than anyone.
01:22:48Biological dad or not,
01:22:50she's scared out of her mind.
01:22:52That guy's just a money-hungry leech.
01:23:01You're okay, sweetheart.
01:23:07Looks like the future heiress's
01:23:09favorite person is still her mommy.
01:23:12I'm in favor of giving
01:23:13full custody to the mother.
01:23:14A man who uses his own daughter
01:23:16as a pawn for money
01:23:17shouldn't even be a father.
01:23:20I support Miss Astor.
01:23:22We support Miss Astor.
01:23:25We support Miss Astor.
01:23:26We support Miss Astor.
01:23:29Order.
01:23:30I'll now announce the verdict.
01:23:33Full custody will go to...
01:23:38Full custody will go to...
01:23:44The defendant,
01:23:45Miss Iris Astor.
01:23:47What?
01:23:48No.
01:23:49This is rigged.
01:23:49She paid you all off.
01:23:51I want an appeal.
01:23:52Either give me my daughter
01:23:53or pay me alimony.
01:23:57Felix!
01:23:58Hey, hey, stop.
01:24:00Iris!
01:24:01You still haven't paid me
01:24:02any alimony since we got divorced.
01:24:03That's illegal.
01:24:04Did you forget, Dorian?
01:24:06You were the one that forced me
01:24:07to sign the divorce papers.
01:24:08You clearly stated
01:24:09that you wanted nothing
01:24:10to do with my assets
01:24:11or my debt.
01:24:13Any fortune you pushed away
01:24:15is on you.
01:24:16No, that can't be.
01:24:17It can't be like this.
01:24:21I'm refiling for divorce.
01:24:22You can file for whatever
01:24:23you want, Dorian,
01:24:24but I recommend getting a lawyer.
01:24:26I'm suing you
01:24:27for defamation
01:24:28and for violating
01:24:29federal securities laws.
01:24:31Thanks to you,
01:24:32the Astro Dominion
01:24:32has lost over 10 billion
01:24:34in market value,
01:24:35which you will pay off
01:24:36in prison.
01:24:37Iris,
01:24:37please,
01:24:39don't do this.
01:24:40It would be heartless
01:24:41to let our daughter
01:24:41grow up without her father.
01:24:43A greedy,
01:24:44selfish father
01:24:46would ruin
01:24:47our daughter.
01:24:49She'd be better off
01:24:49with one.
01:24:50Right, Dorian?
01:24:51That baby would end up
01:24:53just like its mom,
01:24:54another greedy,
01:24:55lying con artist.
01:24:57Better to just not have it
01:24:58in the first place.
01:25:01Get up.
01:25:04Everything's going to be
01:25:05different now, Ivy.
01:25:07Mommy can have
01:25:08a brand new start.
01:25:09All right.
01:25:20All right.
