00:00:00Where's Dorian?
00:00:10My baby's coming any second now.
00:00:12What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?
00:00:15He'll be here soon.
00:00:16He's going to get his mom.
00:00:18Seriously, thank you, Anita.
00:00:21For being here.
00:00:23I'm your best friend.
00:00:24I wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:00:28I'm going to go grab the doctor.
00:00:30Chairman Astor, this gift just came in for you.
00:00:45The CEO of Cartelier is a custom cheetah brooch.
00:00:49It's the purest ruby on the planet.
00:00:52Not bad.
00:00:53Dad, I'm about to have the baby.
00:01:09What?
00:01:12Iris!
00:01:12Are you really walking out on your family?
00:01:18Dad!
00:01:20You were wrong about Dorian, okay?
00:01:22He doesn't care about money!
00:01:25He loves me!
00:01:26And I choose him!
00:01:28If you walk through that gate, you are no longer my daughter!
00:01:35And you'll have nothing to do with the Astor name ever again!
00:01:38Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad!
00:01:49And I love your dad!
00:01:51I always will!
00:01:54But I choose him!
00:01:56Because our love is real, dad!
00:01:59And I'm going to prove it to you!
00:02:00Congratulations, sir.
00:02:16You're going to be your grandfather.
00:02:21Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.
00:02:25He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.
00:02:30Still, Iris chose him.
00:02:32And now they're about to have a baby.
00:02:36Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.
00:02:39Get the finest gifts money can buy.
00:02:42I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.
00:02:48Guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.
00:02:52If not...
00:02:54Oh, he'll have me to answer to.
00:03:14Mr. Holland!
00:03:15Mr. Holland, what's wrong?
00:03:17What happened?
00:03:17You sounded like you were having a heart attack!
00:03:19Hurry!
00:03:20I need to get the Pultimate Sierra from the vault!
00:03:22I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP!
00:03:25You're giving that away?
00:03:26I just got word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on Earth, is having a baby today!
00:03:31We must congratulate you with a most spectacular gift!
00:03:33If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion!
00:03:38We're talking billions, Jessica!
00:03:40Billions!
00:03:41Now go!
00:03:42Run!
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.
00:04:08Mom, please don't get worked up.
00:04:09The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.
00:04:12It's serious.
00:04:13There's a real risk of bleeding.
00:04:15Oh, 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?
00:04:23This is why we're bleeding money.
00:04:25If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today, tomorrow, she's gonna want to live
00:04:31in Nanny.
00:04:32And then what?
00:04:33A private chef?
00:04:34A butler?
00:04:35What do I do, Mom?
00:04:38You 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.
00:04:47Okay, Mom.
00:04:48Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.
00:04:54Oh, my precious baby.
00:04:56Iris, 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.
00:05:14Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.
00:05:16You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.
00:05:26Tessa, we're in your hair.
00:05:28Look at this room.
00:05:36This 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-laws gave birth at local clinics, and it only cost
00:05:48three grand total.
00:05:51But 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.
00:05:59Oh, Dorian.
00:06:01Don't be stupid.
00:06:04This has nothing to do with the baby.
00:06:07She's flaunting.
00:06:08She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite.
00:06:13I 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, one day you're going to wake
00:06:23up with nothing left.
00:06:27Then what do I do?
00:06:29Don't worry, my sweet boy.
00:06:32You're going to handle everything, okay?
00:06:34Okay.
00:06:36Let'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.
00:07:06What?
00:07:08What?
00:07:09Leave 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?
00:07:21Yes, 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.
00:07:30And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency.
00:07:34I'm not here for comfort.
00:07:35I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.
00:07:40Dorian, I know how hard you work.
00:07:44God.
00:07:45Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable and then we can transfer,
00:07:51I promise.
00:07:52Son, don't fall for that.
00:07:54We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight.
00:07:57If she drags this out, it's going to be thousands more down the drain.
00:08:02Tessa, this is between my husband and I.
00:08:03Please just give us a moment.
00:08:06I'm his mother.
00:08:07Dorian's opinion is my opinion.
00:08:10Now come on.
00:08:11We are leaving this hospital.
00:08:17Dorian.
00:08:22Dorian.
00:08:26Iris, 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 BB 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.
00:09:24Iris, 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.
00:09:39Ah!
00:09:41Something's wrong with me.
00:09:43You called the doctor, please.
00:09:44No, do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:09:50Mm-hmm.
00:10:14Dorian, what happened to you?
00:10:29Okay.
00:10:31I'll pay for it.
00:10:36Hi.
00:10:38Could you settle the bill with us, please?
00:10:41See?
00:10:42She had the cash all along.
00:10:46Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.
00:10:52She doesn't feel the pressure now.
00:10:54She's never going to know what it takes to keep a family afloat.
00:10:58You're right, Mom.
00:10:58You always are.
00:11:00You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.
00:11:02That's right.
00:11:04Very precious baby boy.
00:11:07I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:11:08Your card was declined.
00:11:10You're short about $20,000.
00:11:12If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.
00:11:20This is everything I have left.
00:11:23Is she really broke?
00:11:24It doesn't make any sense.
00:11:26With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.
00:11:30Yeah, 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, hospital visits.
00:11:38I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.
00:11:40What on earth has she been through these past three years?
00:11:44Dorian, can you just, please just consider it alone?
00:11:48Just, I 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 $20,000.
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?
00:12:34Okay.
00:12:37Okay, Dorian.
00:12:39I think something's going to happen with the baby.
00:12:41The 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, Dorian, please, I'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,
00:13:07or she can pay for everything herself.
00:13:09And if she doesn't want to do either,
00:13:12then 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,
00:13:29I 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,
00:13:48then fine.
00:13:49Pay for it yourself.
00:13:51But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.
00:13:55Please, can I 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've become 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.
00:14:50I don't know what my son saw
00:14:52in 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.
00:15:10I hurt.
00:15:14Bastards!
00:15:16How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!
00:15:22Alone?
00:15:23Are you seriously making Iris take out a loan?
00:15:26Oh my God, Iris.
00:15:28Are you okay?
00:15:32I got you.
00:15:33You okay?
00:15:34What is wrong with you?
00:15:36She's your wife.
00:15:37She's about to give birth.
00:15:39This is a family matter.
00:15:40Stay out of it.
00:15:41Stay out of it.
00:15:42You expect me to watch you and your mom
00:15:45abuse my best friend?
00:15:49Okay.
00:15:50You okay?
00:15:52Nurse, nurse, please check her.
00:15:54She's in so much pain.
00:15:55Is the baby coming?
00:15:57She's in early labor.
00:15:59Internal bleeding started.
00:16:00We have to admit her now.
00:16:01Sir, you have to pay the hospital bill immediately.
00:16:04You haven't paid the bill yet?
00:16:05That'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.
00:16:16At least my baby girl has a good friend by her side.
00:16:19Shut your mouth.
00:16:21This has nothing to do with you.
00:16:23Get your shit together.
00:16:25Doctor said she's high risk.
00:16:26This isn't about luxury.
00:16:28It's about survival.
00:16:29She's here to keep herself and the baby alive.
00:16:31What the hell do you know?
00:16:32It's not like you've ever given birth before.
00:16:35Exactly.
00:16:36You're just a loud mouth that thinks that screaming makes you right.
00:16:41You're just like your friend.
00:16:42A 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.
00:16:50She can give birth on the floor if she wants.
00:16:53What's the worst that can happen?
00:16:56You two are unbelievable.
00:16:59Touch my mom and there's more where that came from.
00:17:03Even 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.
00:17:12We're here.
00:17:13Doran.
00:17:14Just don't hurt her.
00:17:16I will take out the load.
00:17:18Aw, couldn't win with your words.
00:17:20You had to use your fists, huh?
00:17:22How classy.
00:17:24I'm so sorry, Mom.
00:17:25Are you all right?
00:17:25Oh, oh, I'll be okay for your sake.
00:17:34You've never been a good daughter-in-law.
00:17:36Your parents didn't even send a dime for the wedding.
00:17:39Do you know that when Mrs. Smith's son got married, her in-laws sent 50 grand cash?
00:17:46And 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.
00:17:58You deserve so much better than that.
00:18:04Nurse, you could use it a little bit with this quickly, please.
00:18:07See?
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?
00:18:19Well, 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.
00:18:30You'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.
00:18:56Oh, and 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?
00:19:23Iris, I was just standing here sticking up for you, and then she gives me this attitude.
00:19:28When she pushes the baby out, you're going to need to put your foot down with her.
00:19:34Iris, you've already taken out the loan.
00:19:38So why are you dragging your feet signing the disclaimer?
00:19:42Sign the damn disclaimer!
00:19:44You two are unbelievable.
00:19:46This baby has your family's DNA.
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?
00:20:05If Iris wants to stay in this plush-ass hospital, then she can cough up the cash for it.
00:20:10Bastard!
00:20:11Oh!
00:20:13Don't fight them, it'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.
00:20:26I don't want him to worry about me.
00:20:29It took a long time to get him to accept you.
00:20:33And when his baby is born, I just wanted to have a complete family.
00:20:38What does Iris' dad do?
00:20:39Not sure.
00:20:41I only met him once.
00:20:43Just seemed like your average Joe.
00:20:45So he's just a nobody?
00:20:48Except Dorian.
00:20:50Who the hell does your father think he is?
00:20:53Some 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.
00:21:07You're already here.
00:21:21Yes, 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.
00:21:34So 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.
00:21:45So you leave my dad out of this?
00:21:49Oh 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 gonna have to stop playing nice.
00:21:59Iris, is this the man you gave up everything for?
00:22:04Dorian is a wonderful man.
00:22:06But his mom is gaslighting.
00:22:08I mean, he can't see how severe the situation is with the baby.
00:22:12Iris, all she's trying to do is help.
00:22:14If she wanted to help, then she wouldn't be here causing a scene!
00:22:18Oh, 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.
00:22:32First, 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 gonna 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?
00:23:08And we are gonna be living happily ever after, even if we have absolutely nothing.
00:23:15Because our love is real, Dad.
00:23:17And I'm gonna 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.
00:23:39Sign this disclaimer to you, we're just gonna stand there?
00:23:42Iris, 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?
00:23:50I can't believe I'm about to sign off on a measly $20,000.
00:23:57Word gets out, I'll be the laughing stock of every boardroom in town.
00:24:04Iris, if this is really the happily ever after you want, I'll do it for you and the baby.
00:24:12No!
00:24:33Due to this contract, null and void.
00:24:36I gave you an out.
00:24:46This is how you react?
00:24:48You are leaving this hospital right now.
00:24:51I don't care where that baby is born, but it sure as hell is not gonna be here.
00:24:56Just shut up!
00:24:57This baby is between Dorian and I, so stop getting in between us!
00:25:05You are a monstrous disgrace of a woman.
00:25:10What did you just call me?
00:25:13A disgrace.
00:25:14Dorian, I stood up for you through everything.
00:25:19When you wanted to chase your dreams and start your business, I gave you all of my savings and now, now I swallow my pride and I take out this predatory loan.
00:25:37Well, because you, you don't even want to pay for the birth of your own child.
00:25:43Well, now you're asking my dad to sign this bullshit disclaimer!
00:25:49Dorian, you, you should be ashamed of yourself.
00:25:54Iris, I was not trying to-
00:25:56Dorian, don't fall for her act.
00:25:59She is just a spoiled, materialistic snob who insists on giving birth in the most expensive hospital.
00:26:08You're right, mom.
00:26:09Iris, stop acting like the victim.
00:26:13You chose this place to show off, trying to make yourself look rich and important.
00:26:18Look, if you don't want to sign the disclaimer, fine, but don't expect any help from me when the baby comes.
00:26:24So, that you would hurt your back on your baby because of money.
00:26:33Okay, fine.
00:26:39And I will raise this baby on my own.
00:26:47Dorian, I want a divorce.
00:26:50Iris.
00:26:56Iris.
00:27:03Stop.
00:27:04What do you mean you want a divorce? Do you not love me anymore?
00:27:13Stop.
00:27:14What do you mean you want a divorce?
00:27:15Do you not love me anymore?
00:27:18I feel like I should be asking you if you ever really loved me.
00:27:22Dorian, what were you doing in there when your control freak of a mother was harassing me?
00:27:26Enforcing my dad to 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, if that is what you think, then you should just live with your mom for the rest of your life.
00:27:36Iris, have you ever actually looked in the mirror?
00:27:40You're trash.
00:27:42And trash doesn't get to talk to my son like that.
00:27:47Touch me with your filthy hands.
00:27:50Dorian!
00:27:51First, she was just spouting threats at me.
00:27:54And now, she's actually flat out assaulting me.
00:27:59You're a complete psycho.
00:28:01Iris, did you just push my mom?
00:28:03I mean, you're acting like a fucking lunatic.
00:28:06You're just going to pin this on me because I'm psycho?
00:28:09Iris.
00:28:09Iris, I gave you sound financial advice out of the kindness of my own heart.
00:28:16And instead of being grateful, you attack me.
00:28:20Is that not exactly what a psycho would do?
00:28:23No.
00:28:25It's not.
00:28:26But there's this.
00:28:30You bitch!
00:28:33How dare you fucking hit me.
00:28:36I'm going to fucking kill you!
00:28:37Touch my daughter again and you're dead!
00:28:46Dorian, they're ganging up on me.
00:28:49They're trying to beat up your poor old mother.
00:28:51Iris, I was blind to marry someone like you.
00:28:55No, Dorian.
00:28:55I was the blind one.
00:28:56I was the one who abandoned my family for a scumbag like you.
00:29:02You know, I really thought that you were different.
00:29:05I 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, you are the type of man who abandoned their own child over $20,000.
00:29:19And let their mother manipulate my mother into signing a stupid agreement.
00:29:25Iris, you took out the loan yourself.
00:29:29Give me one good reason why my son should be responsible for your debt.
00:29:35Honestly, I've never seen anyone so shameless.
00:29:40You 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.
00:29:57You know, since you've married my son, you've done nothing for our family.
00:30:02I mean, you could barely afford the mortgage and car payments.
00:30:05You only forked out a few thousand dollars when Dorian was trying to start his own business.
00:30:11And now, you are trying to bleed him dry.
00:30:14His wife covers the mortgage and the car payments.
00:30:17And she gave him money to start a business.
00:30:19It sounds like enough to me.
00:30:21I mean, what do they want from her?
00:30:23They're clearly the ones we encourage to buy.
00:30:25My wife like that, I'd be living a drink.
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?
00:30:35I'm just trying to protect my son's interests.
00:30:38You don't know shit.
00:30:39Unlike some moms, mine actually cares about me.
00:30:42So shut up and stay out of our business.
00:30:44And you.
00:30:46You didn't even send a dime when Dorian and Iris got married.
00:30:50And now, you show up empty-handed again today.
00:30:54Who says I came empty-handed?
00:31:01Who says I came empty-handed?
00:31:04Oh, please.
00:31:06Look at these fake designer clothes.
00:31:09So, uh, my clothes are fake now?
00:31:12No shit they are.
00:31:14Cartelier is a Parisian jewelry brand.
00:31:18And 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 to afford top-of-the-line stuff,
00:31:37why would Iris leave her family
00:31:40and work three jobs just to support herself?
00:31:45My baby girl, you've been through so much these last few years.
00:31:51Shut up!
00:31:53Ugh!
00:31:53Don't yell at me, you shrew!
00:31:57Dorian and I get to decide where and when that baby gets born.
00:32:04Looks like the only way to get you two to shut up
00:32:09is to bring out my gifts.
00:32:15Eric, bring the gifts in.
00:32:19Now.
00:32:20You are still keeping up that act?
00:32:24We're here, boss.
00:32:36Did 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?
00:32:50No, no, no, sweetie.
00:32:52Leave it.
00:32:53I'm actually dying to see what luxury gifts
00:32:57this 20 grand in debt broke old bum brought with him.
00:33:01Good God!
00:33:18I've never seen that much hard cash.
00:33:20And with this many cases, it's got to be, what, 7 or 8 million?
00:33:24No way.
00:33:25That's at least 10 mil.
00:33:26Well, this was supposed to be your wedding gift.
00:33:30You mean this 10 million dollars?
00:33:32If it's going to be mine?
00:33:34Open the rest.
00:33:35These are the gifts I've prepared for Iris's baby.
00:33:47That's the pink star, the world's most expensive diamond.
00:33:51Along with Bulgari's classic Emerald Jewel set.
00:33:54Only the best for my grandchild.
00:33:56Holy 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's 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
00:34:24one million dollars per month
00:34:26until they turn 18.
00:34:31A 200 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.
00:34:45Man, that guy was so close
00:34:49to 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.
00:34:58I guess that's what the dude gets
00:35:00for being such a mama's.
00:35:01If his evil mom had just treated her daughter-in-law
00:35:04with the minimum fair decency,
00:35:07she would have all that money in her pocket right now.
00:35:09It should have been mine.
00:35:12It was all supposed to be mine.
00:35:15You didn't speak a single word
00:35:18in Iris' defense today.
00:35:20If you just stood up for your wife,
00:35:23this could have all belonged to you.
00:35:25You're supposed to be my daughter's husband,
00:35:28my 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!
00:35:43Mom, look what you've done.
00:35:45This is all your fault.
00:35:46Dorian, don't be rash.
00:35:49Think about it.
00:35:50If Iris really was filthy rich,
00:35:53why would she need to take out a loan?
00:35:56Why would she need to work three jobs
00:36:00just to pay for the wedding?
00:36:02No!
00:36:03We're getting played.
00:36:06Iris and her father are putting on an act.
00:36:11Ah!
00:36:13Oh, stay back!
00:36:15Don't take one more step.
00:36:17What?
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,
00:36:35I actually thought that you were rich.
00:36:37But look what we have here.
00:36:40A fake Cartelier brooch.
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,
00:36:55Cartelier cheetah broochers have red ruby eyes
00:36:58and black diamond bodies.
00:37:01But yours has white diamonds.
00:37:05It's nothing but a shoddy knockoff.
00:37:09And if this is fake,
00:37:11then all those other luxury gifts are fake as well.
00:37:15Wait, mom.
00:37:21So you're saying the cash, jewelry,
00:37:23even the trust fund?
00:37:24They're all fake?
00:37:25Don't be silly, Dorian.
00:37:27If he really had money,
00:37:30why would he be wearing a fake brooch?
00:37:34That's enough.
00:37:35My best friend Sadie is Cartelier California's regional manager.
00:37:41I'll just give her a call,
00:37:43tell her to come down here to prove that this is a fake.
00:37:47Sadie, it's me.
00:37:50I have someone here with a blatant fake Cartelier brooch.
00:37:56I need you to come down here to prove that it's a counterfeit.
00:38:00Well, the craftsmanship on this brooch is impeccable, I must say.
00:38:13However, we don't make cheetah brooches with a white diamond.
00:38:19Tessa, this is counterfeit.
00:38:22Tell me where you got it so that I can trace it back to its source.
00:38:25Where do you think?
00:38:27From Iris' wannabe rich daddy over there.
00:38:33And get this, he also showed up with 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.
00:38:49I can't believe the nerve of them to try and pull a fast one on you like this.
00:38:53I can confidently say that all of this stuff you see here, everything, it's all fake.
00:39:03Fake, you say?
00:39:08Then let's double check.
00:39:10Well, must be fake to break that easily.
00:39:31Spit it out.
00:39:32Where did you get the counterfeit brooch?
00:39:35Well, ma'am, your brand custom designed it for me.
00:39:40It's worth over two million dollars.
00:39:42Now that you've destroyed my brooch, how do you plan on compensating me for it?
00:39:49Wow, grandpa's gone off his rocker.
00:39:52You're just some broke old geezer wearing fake jewelry.
00:39:56What are you talking about, compensation?
00:39:59Let's face facts.
00:40:01I caught you wearing a knockoff of our brand and parading around here with all this fake currency.
00:40:09I'm going to call headquarters to report you, and then I'm calling the police.
00:40:14Our CEO, Mr. Holland, is the richest man in the city.
00:40:18You cross him, and you're dead.
00:40:20Who's Mr. Holland again?
00:40:23Sir, Mr. Holland is the one who gifted you the brooch this morning.
00:40:27Give me a break.
00:40:30Mr. Holland is our CEO.
00:40:33He would never in a million years give you such a precious gift, you broke old geezer.
00:40:40Who do you think you are?
00:40:42The richest fucking man on earth?
00:40:44You think you can fake it until you make it?
00:40:51I am going to call headquarters to report you, and then I'm going to call the police.
00:40:56You can rot in jail for selling counterfeit goods.
00:41:00Tessa, dear, please keep an eye on them for me, will you?
00:41:04We cannot let this family of swindlers escape.
00:41:07They deserve to spend the rest of their lives behind bars.
00:41:10The $10 million cash, the $200 million trust fund, all fakes.
00:41:23The jig is up.
00:41:24You're nothing but a couple of low-class crooks.
00:41:29You know what?
00:41:30It's one thing to buy counterfeit goods, but forging currency is a federal offense.
00:41:38I just can't wait for you to waste away in prison with your looser daddy.
00:41:48I just can't wait for you to waste away in prison with your looser daddy.
00:41:56Yeah, yeah, you're totally right.
00:41:59Just because you say it's fake definitely means it's fake.
00:42:03Dorian, see, this is the woman that you married.
00:42:09Nothing but a cheap scammer who teams up with her father to trick us with shoddy fakes.
00:42:18And now that the cat's out of the bag, they're not even denying it.
00:42:23So this is the real you, Iris?
00:42:25A woman who enlists her father to try and scam her own husband?
00:42:28You never loved me at all, did you?
00:42:30I bet you orchestrated this whole charade just to get your hands on my money.
00:42:36You disgust me, Iris.
00:42:38No, Dorian, you disgust me.
00:42:41God, 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 and throw your sorry ass in jail.
00:42:54Okay, well, don't get ahead of yourself.
00:42:56When the cops get here, they're going to ask you to compensate for the bruise that you destroyed.
00:43:01And when they do, don't come begging us for mercy.
00:43:07Iris, I believed you back then.
00:43:09I thought you left your family because you loved me.
00:43:12Turns out, you're actually just a shameless fraud this whole time.
00:43:14Dorian, can you just, please, just use your frickin' brain for once?
00:43:20You do not have anything that is worth stealing in the first place.
00:43:25I was the one that covered all of our household bills and expenses.
00:43:28I was the one that covered our mortgage and our car, everything.
00:43:33Actually, you know what?
00:43:34I'm done.
00:43:35I am tired and I am exhausted and I really do not want to deal with you right now.
00:43:42And so, actually, you know what?
00:43:44Starting today, Dorian, you mean nothing to me and to my child.
00:43:52Let's go, Dad.
00:43:54Hey!
00:43:54Stop right there!
00:43:56You can get divorced, but this baby belongs to our family and it's not going anywhere.
00:44:03You out of your mind, let me go!
00:44:04Ah!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:09Iris!
00:44:09Iris!
00:44:10Iris!
00:44:10Iris!
00:44:11Iris!
00:44:12I'm out of the woods.
00:44:16I only wanted...
00:44:17Oh my...
00:44:17Watch your checkers!
00:44:18Please.
00:44:19Please.
00:44:20Please...
00:44:20Please...
00:44:21Oh...
00:44:21If anything happens to my daughter,
00:44:44you'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,
00:45:02I 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.
00:45:19Why is she so quiet?
00:45:26Why can't I hear her cry?
00:45:28The baby's heartbeat is stopped. We need to focus on stabilizing the mother.
00:45:43Oh, no, my baby. Please don't leave me.
00:45:48Please, God, please save my baby.
00:45:52Please, God, please save my baby.
00:46:05Mom is here. Come back, my baby.
00:46:09You just got my daughter sent to the ICU.
00:46:19I have a mind to kill you right now.
00:46:22Well, stay back.
00:46:24What are you going to do? Hit me in front of my son?
00:46:28Stay away from my mom.
00:46:31The reason the baby is fighting for its life in the ICU is because Iris was acting all crazy.
00:46:37The baby's heart is starting again. It's a miracle. She's alive. Quick, go save the baby.
00:46:55She's okay. She's alive.
00:46:58You 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?
00:47:15I'll be happy if the baby dies.
00:47:17Did 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. And after today, you will never see her again.
00:47:58Iris, thank God. How are you feeling?
00:48:02I'm all right. She almost just made it, but she's a fighter. She helped.
00:48:15That baby belongs to the Bates family.
00:48:19If 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.
00:48:31Go ahead. Divorce my son. But that baby is not going anywhere with you. Like it or not, that thing is coming home with us.
00:48:42What, what, what, what, what, what, what are you doing?
00:48:52Oh!
00:48:53You almost killed my baby and you were trying to take her from me over my dead body.
00:49:07Iris! Iris, calm down.
00:49:08Get off of her, Iris. You're acting like a fucking lunatic.
00:49:14My mom's right. You're not fit to raise my child. With 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. I'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.
00:49:45You think because I am poor that I am easy to push over. You have no idea who you are messing with.
00:49:55That brooch that my father has is worth more than you could ever make in ten lifetimes.
00:50:04That brooch that my father has is worth more than you could make in ten lifetimes.
00:50:11Are you still trying to pass for some hotshot with that plastic fake brooch?
00:50:17You are nothing but a destitute, blood-sucking leech.
00:50:24Actually, 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.
00:50:43This family makes me sick.
00:50:45They are 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.
00:51:06Eric, collect all the broken pieces of the brooch and assess the damages.
00:51:12You hopeless fools.
00:51:23The CEO of the Cartelier made this custom for the chairman of the Aster Dominion.
00:51:28It's the only one of its kind in the world.
00:51:30You know what that means, right?
00:51:32You're going to be repaying this debt for the rest of your lives.
00:51:35The Aster Dominion? That's the world's number one financial conglomerate.
00:51:39They're worth over 700 billion on the stock market.
00:51:41Isn't there chairman Al Gaster? 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.
00:51:55Are you really part of the Aster Dominion?
00:51:57I'm not just part of it.
00:52:00My father's the chairman of the Aster Dominion and I am his sole heir.
00:52:05And my baby will be my successor.
00:52:07I 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.
00:52:24But now I'm glad I didn't.
00:52:26Because you turned out to be a total piece of shit.
00:52:30Dorian, you are not worthy of being my husband, let alone the father of my child.
00:52:36Oh, come on. The fake goods were bad enough.
00:52:42But 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.
00:53:03You're really full of shit.
00:53:07If 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?
00:53:22I 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.
00:53:39Mr. Holland, you spent $8 million on this tiara to win the Sotheby's bid ten years ago.
00:53:46Are you sure you want to give it away?
00:53:49Hurry. I need to get the pultured tiara from the vault.
00:53:52I need it delivered to Miss Astra ASAP.
00:53:54You're giving that away?
00:53:57If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Aster Dominion.
00:54:01We're talking billions, Jessica! Billions!
00:54:04You've still got a lot to learn, Jessica.
00:54:06There's this Irish Aster we're talking about.
00:54:09THE heiress to the Aster Dominion.
00:54:11I only found out yesterday she was giving birth.
00:54:14All that matters is that we get this gift delivered to her on time.
00:54:21Sir?
00:54:22Someone's claiming to have found a counterfeit cheetah brooch.
00:54:26I hate it when people bother me with this petty crap.
00:54:29This is what I have a team of lawyers for.
00:54:31Step on it! I need to be the first one to deliver Miss Astra a baby gift!
00:54:35No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:54:38You're just a... a filthy skank!
00:54:40You're not even fit to shine my shoes!
00:54:43And you think you can make me burn in hell?
00:54:46Oh, no!
00:54:48Enough of your bullshit!
00:54:50I'm gonna teach you a lesson now!
00:54:52No!
00:54:53No!
00:54:54No!
00:54:55No!
00:54:56No!
00:55:02No!
00:55:19You've got some nerve trying to mess with the Bates family.
00:55:24But guess what?
00:55:26It's not gonna work.
00:55:29Come on down.
00:55:30Come on, Dorian.
00:55:31Come on down.
00:55:32Rip up this fake monopoly money.
00:55:35Show them what happens when you mess with the Bates family.
00:55:40Dorian, I will give you one final warning.
00:55:45Don't join your mother's temper tantrum.
00:55:49If you do, I promise it will be the end of you.
00:55:54Bullshit.
00:55:55Your empty threats don't scare us.
00:55:59Don't let that bitch deceive you.
00:56:02You don't tear up the cash right now.
00:56:05She's just gonna keep scamming.
00:56:10Come on.
00:56:11Listen to mommy.
00:56:13Tear it up.
00:56:14Rip it up.
00:56:15Come on.
00:56:16Do it.
00:56:17Rip it up.
00:56:23Come on.
00:56:24Rip it up.
00:56:25Dorian, wake up.
00:56:27If you don't, your mom's gonna be the death of you.
00:56:30Shut the fuck up.
00:56:31My mom's the only person who's ever loved me for me.
00:56:34She'd never do anything to hurt me.
00:56:35You're just trying to turn me against her.
00:56:42That's what happens when you fuck with the Bates family.
00:56:48Remember, Iris, you brought this on yourself.
00:56:51I just wanted you to save a little money, but you and your dad had to orchestrate this crazy plan to try and scam me?
00:56:56Now you're living with the consequences.
00:56:58Exactly.
00:56:59My son is an absolute catch.
00:57:02A real ten out of ten.
00:57:04And what do you do?
00:57:06You try to scam him with all those fake goods?
00:57:09You should have been grateful to have a husband like Dorian.
00:57:13I've had enough of your games, Iris.
00:57:16Let's get divorced.
00:57:18Hear that?
00:57:20He wants out.
00:57:22Divorce him.
00:57:23And get the hell away from the Bates family.
00:57:26As you wish.
00:57:27But it's the defendants in this case.
00:57:29Are you prepared to rot in jail for the rest of your lives?
00:57:35Are you prepared to rot in jail for the rest of your lives?
00:57:39Defendants?
00:57:40What are you talking about?
00:57:41Defendants?
00:57:42What the hell kind of scheme are you cooking up now?
00:57:45I'm suing the both of you.
00:57:47For defamation, for destruction of personal property, and for attempted murder.
00:57:51You're suing us?
00:57:53Your scammer dad is trying to distribute counterfeit goods?
00:57:58And we should be suing you.
00:58:00Iris, we were married for three years.
00:58:03We have a child.
00:58:04Do you really want to drag me to court?
00:58:06You really have the nerve to talk about our child.
00:58:08When you sat there while your mother abused me.
00:58:11And almost let the baby die.
00:58:13Don't try to push the blame onto my mom.
00:58:15Yeah, she might have a unique way of showing her love for me, but at least she loves me.
00:58:19You're the one who started all this.
00:58:20You insulted her first.
00:58:22Forget it.
00:58:23I'm not gonna waste my breath on a vile woman like you.
00:58:27We're getting divorced.
00:58:28Now.
00:58:31I've been waiting for this day to come.
00:58:36Sign an Instagram.
00:58:37I don't ever want to see you again.
00:58:39You know, you really are as dumb as it gets.
00:58:44Did you even think about the consequences that you would face if these gifts were real?
00:58:49Did you even think about the consequences that you would face if these gifts were real?
00:58:58Pfft.
00:58:59That's impossible.
00:59:01It's impossible that they're not fake.
00:59:03Playtime's over, bitch.
00:59:05Dorian already told you to beat it.
00:59:08Now quit stalling and sign the damn divorce papers.
00:59:11The Bates family wants nothing to do with you.
00:59:14I will sign the papers.
00:59:16But you have to give me back what's mine.
00:59:19Give you back what's yours?
00:59:21We have nothing of yours.
00:59:23And not to mention that you've been on unpaid maternity leave for the past two weeks.
00:59:29And Dorian has been covering everything.
00:59:32I already told you your money and your baby belong to the Bates family.
00:59:42So if you want to leave, you leave with nothing.
00:59:47So, Dorian, you already know what your wonderful mother thinks of me.
00:59:53What about you?
00:59:54I'm with her.
00:59:55She's only ever done what's best for me.
00:59:57What's best for you is ruining your chance of becoming a billionaire
01:00:01and turning you into a bankrupt criminal.
01:00:06Shut up, you old fraud.
01:00:09I was tired of you like two hours ago.
01:00:12And you don't even think about trying to get a penny out of Dorian.
01:00:18Iris, you married me with nothing.
01:00:20Now you're leaving with nothing.
01:00:21Isn't that exactly how it should be?
01:00:23Stop painting yourself as a victim.
01:00:25Three years ago, I gave you an emerald ring.
01:00:28I want it back. Nothing else.
01:00:30An emerald ring.
01:00:35Iris, you gave him that ring.
01:00:38It's the only thing your mother left behind when she passed.
01:00:42You wasted three years of love on this asshole.
01:00:47But after today, I know you'll never let that happen again.
01:00:53You've grown up, Iris.
01:00:57Why does the emerald on this ring look so fake?
01:01:02Just give it back to me, and I will sign the divorce papers.
01:01:05We will have a clean break.
01:01:07Fine. Whatever.
01:01:09Wait!
01:01:10You gave this ring to my son, which makes it Bates family property.
01:01:15There's no way we're giving it back to you.
01:01:18Please, Dorian, this is my only request.
01:01:20If you give me back the ring, they'll not only sign the divorce papers,
01:01:23I will pay off the mortgage and the car.
01:01:27Please.
01:01:28This is the last thing my mother left.
01:01:30What are you doing?
01:01:35What do you think I'm doing?
01:01:37This is my son's ring, so I will do whatever the hell I want to with it.
01:01:45No!
01:01:50No!
01:01:51Oh!
01:01:52Look at you!
01:01:55Going so crazy over this dumb ring.
01:01:58Isn't it just a cheap glass ring?
01:02:01I wouldn't be caught dead wearing it.
01:02:04Only a broke, ignorant skank like you would turn this piece of trash into a rare kind of treasure.
01:02:13I said just give it back!
01:02:15Oh!
01:02:16Look at you!
01:02:17With all this going crazy, you'd think it was the real deal.
01:02:20I said give it back.
01:02:24Stay back.
01:02:26Take one more step and I will smash it to the ground.
01:02:33And I will smash it to the ground.
01:02:35I will smash it to the ground.
01:02:38Dorian, I have done so much for you.
01:02:41I paid for the mortgage and I supported you with your business.
01:02:45When have I ever done you wrong?
01:02:47What more can you ask, Evan?
01:02:51Quit the whining!
01:02:53You sound like nails on a chalkboard.
01:02:55It's just like a stupid old ring, alright?
01:02:58It is not a stupid old ring!
01:03:00It is an Aster family heirloom!
01:03:02And it is the last thing that my mother left me!
01:03:05And it is...
01:03:07And it is absolutely priceless.
01:03:10Fine.
01:03:11Mom, just give it back.
01:03:12It says a lot about the type of person she is that she's willing to go this far over some trashy ring.
01:03:17Get the ring!
01:03:18And be careful with it!
01:03:19Ah!
01:03:29Give something to the Bates family, and you're not getting it back!
01:03:34I swear to God, you're pure evil.
01:03:45All you've been doing since the second you got here is abuse and humiliate Iris.
01:03:51You.
01:03:52Hopeless.
01:03:54Cowardly.
01:03:56Shit for brains, mama's boy.
01:03:59I bet your mommy still wipes your ass every time you go potty.
01:04:04Now look what you've done.
01:04:05You've destroyed her mother's family heirloom.
01:04:08You're monsters in human form.
01:04:10Absolutely disgusting film.
01:04:15You shut the fuck up!
01:04:19One more word out of you, and I'm gonna make you get on all fours, lick my shoes, and beg for forgiveness!
01:04:25Did you just hit me?
01:04:29Nobody hits me!
01:04:33You wanna go, grandpa?
01:04:36Let's go!
01:04:38Hands off my mom, Iris.
01:04:40Oh!
01:04:41Oh!
01:04:42Baby!
01:04:43You were a scumbag!
01:04:44You destroyed the only thing that my mother gave me, and I swear on her name that I will make you both pay!
01:04:52I am calling the cops.
01:04:55You two are getting locked up.
01:05:10Mr. Astor!
01:05:11Mr. Astor!
01:05:16Mr. Astor!
01:05:17It's an honor.
01:05:18I'm Byron Holland, CEO of Cartelier.
01:05:21I sent over the cheater brooch earlier this morning.
01:05:24Appreciate it.
01:05:25That's the CEO of Cartelier.
01:05:28I've seen him on magazine covers before.
01:05:31Wow, he's treating my girl's father with such respect.
01:05:34Who is he?
01:05:35If I had to guess, he's the chairman of the Astor Dominion.
01:05:39The richest man on the planet.
01:05:41Oh my god, that tiara is shining.
01:05:43Mr. Astor, I heard your daughter had a deep earth today.
01:05:46I prepared a small gift to celebrate.
01:05:48Oh, thank you. That's very nice.
01:05:50But really, there's no need.
01:05:52Oh no! He just turned down Mr. Holland in front of everyone?
01:05:56Mom, that tiara doesn't look fake to me.
01:05:58What if Iris and her dad are actually the real deal?
01:06:01No, that's impossible.
01:06:04There's no way a bottom feeder like her would be the world's richest heiress.
01:06:09Think about it, Dorian.
01:06:10Why would a rich heiress leave everything behind
01:06:14and work three jobs just to marry a regular guy like you?
01:06:18That tiara must be a fake.
01:06:20Don't fall for it, Dorian.
01:06:22What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:25What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:29And a CEO, please!
01:06:32More like a deadbeat actor they hired off the street.
01:06:36Mom, you really think they're faking it?
01:06:38Of course they are, Dorian.
01:06:40Look, you're lucky that you're divorcing her.
01:06:44Not only did she show up with all those knockoff goods,
01:06:47she brought in a group of cheap actors to back her up.
01:06:52Are you kidding me?
01:06:53This is the Baltimore tiara.
01:06:55I dropped eight million at Sotheby's on it,
01:06:58and I have the certificate to prove it.
01:07:00Oh, yeah.
01:07:01And how do we know the certificate's not fake?
01:07:03I mean, if you can forge currency and impersonate the CEO of Cartelier,
01:07:11faking a paper's nothing.
01:07:13You're insane!
01:07:15Everything you say is nonsense!
01:07:17I'm insane?!
01:07:19You're the one pissing me off!
01:07:22I'm gonna fuck you up!
01:07:23You crazy old bitch!
01:07:35I'm gonna kill you!
01:07:37Dorian!
01:07:39Baby!
01:07:41Did you see what they did here, Mommy?
01:07:43Your ex-wife hired those gangsters to kill me!
01:07:47I'm gonna call the cops!
01:07:49I'm gonna get you all arrested!
01:07:50Go find the best show you can!
01:07:53We need to get that tiara fixed now!
01:07:55Y-yes, sir!
01:07:59They can't be repaired?
01:08:01I'm gonna make you regret it!
01:08:05You can't just hit her like that!
01:08:06That's assault!
01:08:07You people are the real criminals!
01:08:09Here we go again.
01:08:11You're just like your mom.
01:08:13Always pointing fingers, never owning up to anything.
01:08:16Nothing but dead weight!
01:08:18Your mom just trashed someone else's property,
01:08:22and you're calling him the criminal for standing up for himself!
01:08:25Mr. Holland!
01:08:27What brings you here?
01:08:29You know her?
01:08:31No, no, of course not!
01:08:33You may not remember me, but I'm Sadie Smith,
01:08:36regional manager for Cartelier's California branch.
01:08:38In fact, that whole cheetah brooch scandal, I was the one that called it into headquarters.
01:08:44I couldn't have known it was gonna cause such a fuss, much less bring you here in person!
01:08:49Cheetah brooch you talk about?
01:08:51Where is it? Let me take a look!
01:08:54Where is it? Let me take a look!
01:08:56Yes, absolutely!
01:08:57Uh, you!
01:08:59You there with the fake brooch!
01:09:01Show it to Mr. Holland immediately!
01:09:03Oh, that, uh, fake brooch.
01:09:06Mr. Holland gave it to me himself.
01:09:09Why did you ask him if it's real or not?
01:09:12Mr. Holland, the CEO of Cartelier.
01:09:16Tessa, everything you see is fake.
01:09:21Why don't we double check?
01:09:23It must have been fake for it to break so easily.
01:09:27Seriously? You're gonna keep making stuff up when the CEO is standing right here in front of you?
01:09:34Sir, please don't take it personally that men like him can't afford the real thing, so they masquerade in fakes.
01:09:40Frankly, I think it damages our image.
01:09:42I have a friend who's a journalist at CBS.
01:09:45If you'd like, I could put in a call to her so that she can bring this whole scandal to the news media.
01:09:50You want to take this to the media?
01:09:54You want to bring the media in on this?
01:09:56Of course! I think it would be best to protect our image!
01:09:59Or it will ruin the company.
01:10:01Fucking idiots!
01:10:03Mr. Holland! Why would you do that? I was just trying to protect the company!
01:10:08Because you deserve this!
01:10:09Mr. Holland!
01:10:12You arrogant asshole!
01:10:15Who the fuck do you think you are hitting my friend like that?
01:10:19Do you even know who she is?
01:10:21This is Sadie Smith, regional manager of Cartelier California.
01:10:27She's your friend?
01:10:30She's your friend?
01:10:31No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:10:32Babe!
01:10:34You got back me up on this!
01:10:37What?
01:10:38All I did was crush that cheap ass tiara to prove that it was fake!
01:10:42But all I did was crush that cheap-ass tiara to prove that it was fake.
01:10:48And now everyone's lashing out at me.
01:10:50Say, hippie, call the cops.
01:10:52I want everything documented.
01:10:54I'm suing all of them.
01:10:56You smashed the tiara?
01:10:58Yes.
01:10:59You idiot.
01:11:00This is our CEO of Cartelier, Mr. Holland.
01:11:05Apologize to him right now.
01:11:07He's Mr. Holland.
01:11:08I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:14I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:18You didn't just hit me.
01:11:20You destroyed the gift I brought from this virus.
01:11:24It's not just any tiara.
01:11:25It's a Baltimore tiara.
01:11:27A cultural relic.
01:11:29I paid millions for at Sotheby's.
01:11:32The highest bid.
01:11:34Something you would never afford.
01:11:36Even if you sold everything you own.
01:11:37If you're the CEO of Cartelier,
01:11:41and you brought a present for Iris Aster?
01:11:46No way.
01:11:47You morons.
01:11:49You two still don't understand.
01:11:52That man that you mocked for wearing a fake brooch
01:11:55is Alec Aster, chairman of the Aster Dominion,
01:12:00the richest man on Earth,
01:12:03with a net worth of over $700 billion.
01:12:08And this is Miss Iris Aster,
01:12:10his only daughter,
01:12:13sole heir to his entire empire.
01:12:15Mr. Aster, you're the world's richest man.
01:12:17That means I could have been son-in-law
01:12:20of the wealthiest man in the world.
01:12:21I would have this whole fortune.
01:12:24It could be mine.
01:12:24So this bitch really is the world's richest, Iris?
01:12:31Dammit.
01:12:32If this keeps going,
01:12:34I'll lose Dorian and everything I've got.
01:12:38Dorian, don't listen to her.
01:12:40Iris lied to you for years about who she really was.
01:12:43She's a manipulative bitch.
01:12:45Even if you two stay married,
01:12:47do you think she'd even give you a cent?
01:12:51Say one more word about my daughter
01:12:53and I'll rip your tongue out!
01:12:55But did she...
01:12:55Iris, what do you want to do about this?
01:13:01These two have done enough
01:13:03to lose everything they've ever owned
01:13:05and spend the rest of their lives in prison.
01:13:13Please, we're family, right?
01:13:21I promise,
01:13:23Dorian and I didn't really mean to hurt you.
01:13:26We didn't actually know who you were
01:13:27after three years together.
01:13:30Do you think you can find it in your heart
01:13:32to just let this go?
01:13:35How dare you get tripped, Miss Aster?
01:13:40Didn't you say that you hated me?
01:13:41That you never wanted to see me again?
01:13:43Iris, Iris, baby.
01:13:48Iris.
01:13:49This is all my fault.
01:13:51I know I messed up and I'm sorry.
01:13:52Really.
01:13:53You used to love me.
01:13:55Doesn't that still mean anything?
01:13:56Are you really gonna let me go to jail?
01:13:58What about our daughter?
01:13:59She needs to see her dad.
01:14:01I swear.
01:14:02I will never listen to another word my mom says.
01:14:05From now on, I will only listen to you.
01:14:08You almost got our baby killed
01:14:10because you couldn't stand up to your own mother.
01:14:12And you have the nerve to ask that of me?
01:14:15You're a bastard, Dorian.
01:14:17We're done.
01:14:22Marrying you
01:14:23was the worst mistake that I ever made in my entire life.
01:14:27You know, your stupidity cost you every single cent you could have got from the Aster fortune.
01:14:40Dad, we'll let the lawyers and the cops handle the rest of this.
01:14:43I want every single cent reimbursed from the tiara.
01:14:46As for Dorian, I won't be pressing charges for the child's sake.
01:14:51But he will be spending the rest of his life paying back the debt that he owes.
01:14:55As for Tessa, if she can't pay back the money that she owes,
01:14:59that she will spend the rest of her life rotting in jail.
01:15:03What she deserves for trying to kill my child.
01:15:07Please, I'm his officer.
01:15:10Officers, we'll let you take it from here.
01:15:11Iris, congrats on making it out of hell.
01:15:25Let's go home.
01:15:28Thank you all for coming.
01:15:30I've called this meeting to share some good news.
01:15:33As of today, Iris Aster, rightful heir to the Aster Dominion,
01:15:39has officially returned.
01:15:41Thank you all for the warm welcome.
01:15:53Starting today, I will be stepping in as the new CEO for the Aster Dominion.
01:15:57So, shall we start our first meeting?
01:15:59These fucking assholes.
01:16:13Don't they know I was the son-in-law of the world's richest man?
01:16:17Yesterday, Iris Aster, the newly appointed CEO of the Aster Dominion,
01:16:22celebrated her daughter's first birthday,
01:16:24renting out the entire Four Seasons in Beverly Hills.
01:16:27Cameras spotted Miss Aster in fully head-to-toe designer
01:16:30with her baby Ivy in her arms.
01:16:32The young Iris is set to inherit one of the world's largest private fortunes.
01:16:37Wait.
01:16:38Why didn't I think of this sooner?
01:16:41Divorced or not, I'm still Ivy's dad.
01:16:53Hello.
01:16:54Some of you may have heard of Iris Aster,
01:16:56the new CEO of the Aster Dominion.
01:16:58I'm her ex-husband.
01:17:02I'm a nigga-gigit.
01:17:04You're a nigga-gigit.
01:17:05Miss Aster, you need to see this.
01:17:08What?
01:17:09It's her ex-husband.
01:17:10Live, spreading rumors about you.
01:17:12We're married for three years.
01:17:16But in the end, she and her billionaire father,
01:17:19Alec Aster, kicked me out just because I wasn't rich enough.
01:17:22And the worst part is,
01:17:24they've taken our daughter, Ivy.
01:17:27This is outrageous.
01:17:29I cut Dorian some slack because he's Ivy's father,
01:17:31and this is how he repays me?
01:17:32By slandering me online?
01:17:34It's spreading fast.
01:17:36These Aster, people are calling for a boycott.
01:17:38And now our company's stock just dropped by 8%.
01:17:41I never thought it'd end up like this.
01:17:52Iris and her father,
01:17:54they've used their power to ruin my life.
01:17:57They took my daughter away before I even got to hold her.
01:18:00And now, they're forcing me to pay hundreds of millions in debt.
01:18:05I can't afford.
01:18:06They even had my mom thrown in prison.
01:18:09I'm not doing this to hurt anybody.
01:18:11I just want to see my little girl again.
01:18:13I don't have any power.
01:18:14I don't have money.
01:18:15All I can do is speak the truth and hope somebody out there hears me.
01:18:21Please, help me get my daughter back.
01:18:25Miss Aster, Fords are furious.
01:18:28They're demanding you to fix this immediately.
01:18:30What the hell do you want?
01:18:38What the hell do you want?
01:18:39Come on, Iris.
01:18:40We were married for three years.
01:18:42Don't act like I'm some stranger now.
01:18:44I know you still care.
01:18:45I just, uh, I don't want Ivy growing up without her dad.
01:18:48All right?
01:18:49I promise, this time, I'll do whatever you say.
01:18:51I won't listen to anyone else.
01:18:53Dorian, I cut you some slack and this is how you repay me?
01:18:55This isn't a threat, Iris.
01:18:57I'm doing this because I love you.
01:18:59If you're willing to take me back, marry me again,
01:19:01then I'll take the videos down.
01:19:03Shut down all the rumors.
01:19:03I swear, your stock won't drop another cent.
01:19:07Wow.
01:19:08You know, you just burned the last bit of mercy that I had left for you.
01:19:12Fine.
01:19:13I will see you in court.
01:19:15I'm going to make sure the entire world knows exactly who you are.
01:19:21Ungrateful bitch.
01:19:22I'm still Ivy's biological father.
01:19:27You had your chance, Iris.
01:19:29Now, I'm going to destroy you.
01:19:33Eric, I need you to go get a lawyer.
01:19:35I'm going to be suing Dorian for defamation and for federal securities laws.
01:19:39Miss Astor, you will win in court, no doubt.
01:19:42The damage to your reputation, I don't think it can be undone.
01:19:46Wait, what if we take him on one of those reality courtroom shows?
01:19:51We lay it all out there for the whole country to see.
01:19:53We'll set the record straight.
01:19:55I like that idea.
01:19:56And if we're going to do this, we're going to make sure we do it
01:19:58so the whole world sees exactly who he is.
01:20:00And we are not going to hold back.
01:20:03Plaintiff Dorian Bates, you are suing Iris Astor
01:20:12for deprivation of custody of your daughter, Ivy Astor.
01:20:15You want to modify the custody agreement.
01:20:17Is that correct, sir?
01:20:19Yes, Your Honor.
01:20:20She took my daughter away on the basis of having a wealthier family.
01:20:24And now, she's forcing me to pay back $100 million in debt.
01:20:27Order in the court.
01:20:33This is not a talk show.
01:20:35Defendant, do you have any evidence to counter his claims?
01:20:38Thank you, Your Honor.
01:20:41Mr. Bates is lying.
01:20:43I have here the divorce agreement that he forced me to sign the day that I gave birth.
01:20:47He left me in Ivy.
01:20:48I believe that a father who files for divorce the same day that their daughter enters this world
01:20:54does not deserve any custody.
01:20:57I believe that a father who files for divorce the same day that their daughter enters this world
01:21:01does not deserve any custody.
01:21:03Only because she lied to me first, Your Honor.
01:21:06She hid her real identity and pretended to be from a poor family.
01:21:09If I'd known she was the heiress to the wealthiest family in the world, I never would have left.
01:21:14Sir is saying it's perfectly fine to divorce your wife if she's poor.
01:21:18No, no, no.
01:21:19Your Honor, that's not what I'm saying.
01:21:22As for the debt, Miss Esther, can you provide any evidence in your defense?
01:21:26Yes, Your Honor.
01:21:28My father brought gifts for my daughter the day that I gave birth to her worth over $100 million.
01:21:33As you can see here, my ex-husband and his mother, they destroyed absolutely everything.
01:21:40Show them what it means to fuck with the Bates family.
01:21:45I simply want compensation in a fair and legal manner.
01:21:49Wow, this guy's shameless.
01:21:51He asked for a divorce the day his wife gave birth, trashed all his daughter's gifts,
01:21:55and now he has the audacity to blame her for causing all this mess?
01:21:59The way they treated her, it's a miracle she didn't lose the baby.
01:22:01Honestly, the Aster heiress is smart not to let him have custody.
01:22:05He's not a father, he's a selfish leech who only cares about money.
01:22:11He's not a father, he's a selfish leech who only cares about money.
01:22:15What the hell do you two know?
01:22:17This is clearly all her fault.
01:22:18If she told me her real identity earlier, none of this would have happened.
01:22:21I tried to tell you at the hospital, but you didn't listen, and suddenly this is my fault now?
01:22:25I, you're...
01:22:27Warner?
01:22:27Mr. Bates, I've heard more than enough to back the defendant's claims.
01:22:33If all you've got are excuses and attitude, I'm ready to make my ruling.
01:22:37Your Honor, please.
01:22:38I'm still Ivy's biological father.
01:22:40Doesn't her opinion matter?
01:22:41Just trust her.
01:22:42Let's see.
01:22:42She loves me more than anyone.
01:22:45Here we go.
01:22:47Here we go.
01:22:49Here we go.
01:22:50Here we go.
01:22:50Here we go.
01:22:50Here we go.
01:22:51Here we go.
01:22:52Here we go.
01:22:52Here we go.
01:22:53Here we go.
01:22:54Biological dad or not, she's scared out of her mind.
01:22:58That guy's just a money-hungry leech.
01:23:11You're okay, sweetheart.
01:23:12It looks like the future heiress's favorite person is still her mommy.
01:23:17I'm in favor of giving full custody to the mother.
01:23:20A man who uses his own daughter as a pawn for money shouldn't even be a father.
01:23:26I support Miss Astor.
01:23:28We support Miss Astor.
01:23:30We support Miss Astor.
01:23:32We support Miss Astor.
01:23:34Order.
01:23:36I'll now announce the verdict.
01:23:38Full custody will go to...
01:23:42...the defendant, Miss Astor.
01:23:53What? No. This is rigged.
01:23:55She paid you all off. I want an appeal.
01:23:58Either give me my daughter or pay me alimony.
01:24:02Bayless!
01:24:04Hey, hey, stop!
01:24:06Iris!
01:24:07You still haven't paid me any alimony since we got divorced.
01:24:09That's illegal.
01:24:10Did you forget, Dorian?
01:24:11You were the one that forced me to sign the divorce papers.
01:24:14You clearly stated that you wanted nothing to do with my assets or my debt.
01:24:19Any fortune you pushed away is on you.
01:24:22No, that can't be.
01:24:23It can't be like this.
01:24:24I'm refiling for divorce.
01:24:28You can file for whatever you want, Dorian, but I recommend getting a lawyer.
01:24:32I'm suing you for defamation and for violating federal securities laws.
01:24:37Thanks to you, the Astor dominion has lost over $10 billion in market value, which you will pay off in prison.
01:24:43Iris!
01:24:43Penny!
01:24:44Please.
01:24:45Don't do this.
01:24:46It would be heartless to let our daughter grow up without her father.
01:24:48A greedy, selfish father would ruin our daughter.
01:24:54She'd be better off with one.
01:24:56Right, Dorian?
01:24:57That baby would end up just like its mom.
01:25:00Another greedy, lying con artist.
01:25:02Better to just not have it in the first place.
01:25:07Get up!
01:25:10Everything's going to be different now, Ivy.
01:25:13Mommy got us a brand new start.
