00:15:18how dare you treat my precious daughter like this
00:15:20what is your house and i feel about to be Π΄Π²ΠΈΠ³Π°ΡΠ΅Π»Ρ
00:15:32i'll show you i was by yourself hearing them
00:15:33Okay. 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.
00:16:01Sir, 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.
00:16:28She'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.
00:16:40You'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?
00:16:55You two are unbelievable.
00:17:01Touch 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, okay?
00:17:13Dorian?
00:17:14Just don't hurt her.
00:17:16I will take out the load.
00:17:17Aw, couldn't win with your words. You had to use your fists, huh? How classy.
00:17:23I'm so sorry, Mom. Are you all right?
00:17:26Oh, oh. I'll be okay for 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.
00:17:39Do 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. You deserve so much better than that.
00:18:01Nurse, you could have used it a little bit with this quickly, please.
00:18:08See? Was 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.
00:18:49No 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 in 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?
00:19:11You 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?
00:19:23I 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.
00:19:32Iris, 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 DNA.
00:19:50Refusing financial liability is one thing, but putting her health at risk right before birth?
00:19:57It's diabolical.
00:19:58Like 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.
00:20:28It took a long time to get him to accept you.
00:20:32With his baby, he's born.
00:20:35I just wanted to have him believe him.
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.
00:20:48Except 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.
00:21:01He doesn't give a damn about you.
00:21:06Never even loved you anyway.
00:21:07Dad?
00:21:19You're already here.
00:21:22Yes, baby.
00:21:24Daddy's here now.
00:21:25If 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.
00:21:44So 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.
00:22:07But 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.
00:22:21Oh, Mr. Astor.
00:22:22If 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 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.
00:22:53Iris, 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.
00:23:14Because our love is real, Dad.
00:23:16And 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.
00:23:32Now quit stalling and sign the damn disclaimer.
00:23:37Your mom is making my dad sign this disclaimer and you are just going to 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.
00:24:02Iris, if this is really the happily ever after you want, I'll do it for you and the baby.
00:24:30No.
00:24:32Through this contract null and void.
00:24:44I gave you an out.
00:24:46This is how you react?
00:24:48You are leaving this hospital right now.
00:24:50I don't care where that baby is born, but it sure as hell is not going to be here.
00:24:56Shut up!
00:24:57This baby is between Dorian and I, so stop getting it between us!
00:25:05You are a monstrous disgrace of a woman.
00:25:09What did you just call me?
00:25:12A 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, well, because 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!
00:25:48Dorian, Dorian, you should be ashamed of yourself.
00:25:54Iris, I was not trying to-
00:25:56Dorian, don't fall for her act.
00:25:58She 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.
00:26:19Look, 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, you would hurt your back on your baby because of money, okay, fine, and I will raise this baby on my own.
00:26:47Dorian, I want a divorce.
00:26:54Oh, please.
00:27:10Iris.
00:27:11Iris, stop.
00:27:13What 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.
00:27:21Dorian, what were you doing in there when your control freak of a mother was harassing me, enforcing 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.
00:27:49Dorian, first she was just spouting threats at me, and 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.
00:28:05You're just going to pin this on me because I'm psycho?
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.
00:28:27Look at this.
00:28:27This.
00:28:28Ah!
00:28:30Ah!
00:28:31You bitch!
00:28:33How dare you fucking hit me.
00:28:36I'm going to fucking kill you.
00:28:37Ah!
00:28:38Touch 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, I was the blind one.
00:28:57I 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.
00:29:51A 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.
00:30:06You 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.
00:30:14This boy covers the mortgage and the car payments,
00:30:17and she gave him money to start a business.
00:30:19That sounds like enough to me.
00:30:20I mean, what do they want from her?
00:30:23They're clearly the ones who believe in courage are high.
00:30:25If I had a wife like that, I'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?
00:30:35I'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.
00:30:45You didn't even send a dime when Dorian and Iris got married.
00:30:50And now, you show up empty-handed again today.
00:30:55Who 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.
00:31:08So, 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.
00:31:31If 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,
00:31:47you'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!
00:31:56Dorian and I get to decide
00:31:59where and when that baby gets born.
00:32:04Looks like the only way
00:32:06to 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.
00:32:26Did 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?
00:32:50No, no, no, sweetie.
00:32:52Leave it.
00:32:53I'm actually dying to see
00:32:55what 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,
00:33:21it's got to be, what,
00:33:22seven or eight 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?
00:33:32It was going to be mine?
00:33:34Open the rest.
00:33:35These are the gifts that are 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.
00:33:54Only the best for my grandchild.
00:33:57Holy shit, the pink star diamond!
00:33:59The 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,
00:34:09because seven is Iris' lucky number.
00:34:12This is my grandchild's trust fund,
00:34:17worth over 200 million in assets.
00:34:21I've also arranged for the child
00:34:23to have one million dollars per month
00:34:26until they turn 18.
00:34:28A 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.
00:34:46Man, 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
00:34:59for 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.
00:35:09This should have been mine.
00:35:11It was all supposed to be mine.
00:35:13You didn't speak a single word
00:35:18in Iris's 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,
00:35:27my 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!
00:35:43Mom!
00:35:44Look 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?
00:35:55Why would she need to work three jobs
00:36:00just to pay for the wedding?
00:36:02No!
00:36:03We're getting played.
00:36:05Iris and her father are putting on an act.
00:36:10Ah!
00:36:13Oh, stay back!
00:36:15Don't take one more step.
00:36:18What?
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?
00:36:25The thief doesn't get to play the victim.
00:36:29You 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 broke.
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 brooches 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, so 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?
00:37:33That's enough.
00:37:36My 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.
00:38:07Well, the craftsmanship on this brooch is impeccable, I must say.
00:38:13However, we don't make cheetah brooches with a white diamond.
00:38:18Tessa, 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?
00:38:28From 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.
00:38:48I 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,
00:39:00it's all fake.
00:39:03Fake, you say?
00:39:08Then let's double check.
00:39:18Well, it must be fake to break that easily.
00:39:31Spit it out.
00:39:33Where 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?
00:39:47Wow, 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.
00:40:00I 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.
00:41:06They 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.
00:43:14But Dorian, 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.
00:43:31Everything.
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.
00:43:43And 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.
00:44:02You out of your mind, let me go!
00:44:08Iris!
00:44:08Oh, my God!
00:44:15Oh, my God!
00:44:16Oh, my God!
00:44:17Oh, my God!
00:44:18Watch the checker!
00:44:18Please.
00:44:19Please.
00:44:20Please.
00:44:20If anything happens to my daughter, you'd better believe.
00:44:47I'll send you both to hell!
00:44:50You 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.
00:45:16Why is she so quiet?
00:45:23Why can't I hear her cry?
00:45:27The baby's heartbeat has stopped. We need to focus on stabilizing the mother.
00:45:42Oh, no, my baby. Please don't leave me.
00:45:49Please, God, please save my baby.
00:46:05Mom is here. Come back, my baby.
00:46:08Come back, my baby.
00:46:15You just got my daughter sent to the ICU!
00:46:20I have no 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?
00:46:31Stay 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 has started 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?
00:47:11Will you not have even the slightest remorse?
00:47:15I'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.
00:47:54And after today, you will never see her again.
00:47:58Iris, thank God. How are you feeling?
00:48:02I'm all right.
00:48:05She almost just made it, but she's a fighter. She helped.
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.
00:48:31Go 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 are, what are you doing?
00:48:51You almost killed my baby and you were trying to take her from me over my dead body.
00:49:06Iris, Iris, calm down.
00:49:08Get off of her, Iris. You're acting like a fucking lunatic.
00:49:13My mom's right. You're not fit to raise my child. With a violent abuser for a mother, the only place this kid's gonna end up is juvie.
00:49:19Iris, you can go wherever you want, but you're leaving the baby with us.
00:49:22I'll consider it compensation for surviving three years of marriage to a broke, scamming psycho like you.
00:49:29My 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.
00:49:57That 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.
00:50:10Are 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.
00:50:37Don'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.
00:51:05Eric, collect all the broken pieces of the brooch and assess the damages.
00:51:12You hopeless fools. The 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. You know what that means, right?
00:51:30You'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.
00:51:39They're worth over 700 billion on the stock market.
00:51:42Isn'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.
00:52:00My father's the chairman of the Aster Dominion and I am his sole heir.
00:52:05And my baby will be my successor.
00:52:08I 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.
00:52:20I 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, Dorian.
00:52:32You are not worthy of being my husband.
00:52:35Let alone the father of my child.
00:52:38Oh, come on.
00:52:40The fake goods were bad enough.
00:52:42But now you're trying to impersonate the world's richest family?
00:52:47It 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.
00:53:06If 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?
00:53:21I don't see any A-list celebrities coming here to celebrate the birth of your heir.
00:53:27All that you need to know is that my baby is coming home with me.
00:53:32And that if either of you try to do anything, I will make sure that you both rot in hell.
00:53:35Mr. 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 pulled towards the tiara from the vault.
00:53:52I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.
00:53:55You're giving that away?
00:53:57If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion.
00:54:01We're talking billions, Jessica! Billions!
00:54:04You've still got a lot to learn, Jessica.
00:54:07This is Irish Astor we're talking about.
00:54:09THE heiress to the Astor 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.
00:54:17Sir?
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!
00:54:32I NEED TO BE THE FIRST ONE TO DELIVER Miss Astor a baby gift!
00:54:36No, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:54:38You're just a... a filthy skank!
00:54:41You're not even fit to shine my shoes!
00:54:43And you think you can make me burn in hell?
00:54:45Oh no!
00:54:48Enough of your bullshit!
00:54:50I'm gonna teach you a lesson now!
00:55:15You've got some nerve trying to mess with the Bates family!
00:55:23But guess what?
00:55:25It's not gonna work!
00:55:27Come on down!
00:55:28Come on, Dorian!
00:55:30Come on down!
00:55:32Rip up this fake monopoly money!
00:55:34Show them what happens when you mess with the Bates family!
00:55:37Dorian!
00:55:39I will give you one final warning!
00:55:43Don't join your mother's temper tantrum!
00:55:47If you do, I promise it will be the end of you!
00:55:52Bullshit!
00:55:53Your empty threats don't scare us!
00:55:57Don't let that bitch deceive you!
00:56:01And don't tear up the cash right now!
00:56:05She's just gonna keep scamming me!
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!
00:56:22Come on!
00:56:23Rip it up!
00:56:25Dorian!
00:56:26Wake 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!
00:56:43That's what happens when you fuck with the Bates family!
00:56:48Remember, Iris.
00:56:49You brought this on yourself.
00:56:50I just wanted you to save a little money,
00:56:52but 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 10 out of 10!
00:57:04And what do you do?
00:57:05You 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 game, Iris.
00:57:16Let's get divorced.
00:57:19Hear that?
00:57:20He wants out.
00:57:21Divorce him.
00:57:23And get the hell away from the Bates family!
00:57:25As you wish.
00:57:27But it's the defendants in this case.
00:57:29Are you prepared to be brought in jail for the rest of your lives?
00:57:34Defendants?
00:57:35What are you talking about?
00:57:36Defendants!
00:57:37What the hell kind of scheme are you cooking up now?
00:57:40I'm suing the both of you.
00:57:42For defamation, for destruction of personal property, and for attempted murder.
00:57:45You're suing us!
00:57:46Your scammer dad is trying to distribute counterfeit goods?
00:57:47And we should be suing you!
00:57:48Iris, we were married for three years.
00:57:49We have a child.
00:57:50Do you really want to drag me to court?
00:57:51You really have the nerve to talk about our child when you sat there while your mother
00:57:52abused me and almost let the baby die!
00:57:54Don't try to push the blame onto my mom.
00:57:55Yeah.
00:57:56She might have a unique way of showing her love for me, but at least she loves me.
00:57:57You're the one who started all this.
00:57:58You insulted her first.
00:57:59Forget it.
00:58:00I'm not going to.
00:58:01I'm not going to.
00:58:02I'm not going to.
00:58:03I'm not going to.
00:58:04I'm not going to.
00:58:05I'm not going to.
00:58:06Waste my breath on a vile woman like you.
00:58:07We're getting divorced.
00:58:08Now.
00:58:09I've been waiting for this day to come.
00:58:17Son.
00:58:18loves me. You're the one who started all this. You insulted her first. Forget it. I'm not going to
00:58:24waste my breath on a vile woman like you. We're getting divorced now. I've been waiting for this
00:58:32day to come. Sign an Instagram. I don't ever want to see you again. You know, you really are as
00:58:43dumb as it gets. Did you even think about the consequences that you would face if these gifts
00:58:48were real? Did you even think about the consequences that you would face if these gifts were real?
00:59:00That's impossible. It's impossible that they're not fake. Playtime's over, bitch. Dorian already
00:59:07told you to beat it. Now quit stalling and sign the damn divorce papers. The Bates family wants
00:59:13nothing to do with you. I will sign the papers. But you have to give me back what's mine.
00:59:19Give you back what's yours? We have nothing of yours. And not to mention that you've been on
00:59:26unpaid maternity leave for the past two weeks. And 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.
00:59:48So, Dorian, you already know what your wonderful mother thinks of me. What about you?
00:59:54I'm with her. She's only ever done what's best for me. What's best for you is ruining your chance
01:00:00of becoming a billionaire and turning you into a bank-rocked criminal.
01:00:06Shut up, you old fraud. I was tired of you like two hours ago. And you don't even think about trying
01:00:16to get a penny out of Dorian. Iris, you married me with nothing. Now you're leaving with nothing.
01:00:21Isn't that exactly how it should be? Stop painting yourself as a victim.
01:00:26Three years ago, I gave you an emerald ring. I want it back. Nothing else.
01:00:31An emerald ring?
01:00:35Iris, you gave him that ring? It's the only thing your mother left behind when she passed.
01:00:42You wasted three years of love on this asshole.
01:00:47Hmm. But after today, I know you'll never let that happen again. You've grown up, Iris.
01:00:55Why does the emerald on this ring look so fake?
01:01:02Just give it back to me, and I will sign the divorce papers. We will have a clean break.
01:01:07Fine. Whatever.
01:01:09Wait!
01:01:09You 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.
01:01:21If you give me back the ring, they'll not only sign the divorce papers, I 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?
01:01:38This is my son's ring, so I will do whatever the hell I want to with it.
01:01:46No!
01:01:50No!
01:01:51Oh! Look 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.
01:02:14I 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.
01:02:21I 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?
01:02:48What more can you ask of me?
01:02:51Quit the whining.
01:02:53You sound like nails on a chalkboard.
01:02:55It's just like a stupid old ring, all right?
01:02:58It is not a stupid old ring.
01:03:00It is an Aster family heirloom.
01:03:03And it is the last thing that my mother left me.
01:03:05And it is...
01:03:07And it is absolutely priceless.
01:03:09Fine.
01:03:11Mom, just give it back.
01:03:13It says a lot about the type of person she is, that she's willing to go this far over some
01:03:16trashy ring.
01:03:17Get the ring!
01:03:19And be careful with it!
01:03:19Give 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.
01:03:50You, hopeless, cowardly, shit-for-brain's mama's boy.
01:03:59I bet your mommy still wipes her ass every time you go potty.
01:04:04Now look what you've done.
01:04:06You've destroyed her mother's family heirloom.
01:04:09You're monsters in human form.
01:04:11You're absolutely disgusting filth.
01:04:16You shut the fuck up.
01:04:19One more word out of you, and I'm going to make you get on all fours, lick my shoes, and
01:04:23beg for forgiveness.
01:04:25Did you just hit me?
01:04:29Nobody hits me.
01:04:33You want to go, Grandpa?
01:04:36Let's go.
01:04:37Hands off my mom, Iris.
01:04:41You are a scumbag.
01:04:44You destroyed the only thing that my mother gave me, and I swear on her name that I will
01:04:49make you both pay.
01:04:52I am calling the cops.
01:04:55You two are getting locked up.
01:04:58Mr. Aster.
01:05:16Mr. Aster.
01:05:17It's an honor.
01:05:18I'm Byron Holland, CEO of Cartel Year.
01:05:21I sent over the cheetah brooch earlier this morning.
01:05:24Appreciate it.
01:05:25That's the CEO of Cartel Year.
01:05:28I've seen him on how 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 Aster Dominion.
01:05:39The richest man on the planet.
01:05:41Oh my god, that tiara is shining.
01:05:43Mr. Aster, I heard your daughter had a gay birth today.
01:05:46I prepared a small gift to celebrate.
01:05:48Oh, thank you.
01:05:49That's very nice.
01:05:50But really, there's no need.
01:05:52Oh no.
01:05:53He just turned down Mr. Holland in front of everyone?
01:05:56Oh, 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.
01:06:03There's no way a bottom feeder like her would be the world's richest heiress.
01:06:08Think about it, Dorian.
01:06:10Why would a rich heiress leave everything behind and work three jobs just to marry a regular guy like you?
01:06:18That tiara must be a fake.
01:06:19Don't fall for it, Dorian.
01:06:21What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:24What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:28And a CEO, please.
01:06:32More like a deadbeat actor they hired off the street.
01:06:35Mom, you really think they're faking it?
01:06:38Of course they are, Dorian.
01:06:41Look, 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?
01:06:54This 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?
01:07:04I 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.
01:07:24Ha.
01:07:25Ha.
01:07:25Ha.
01:07:25Ha.
01:07:25Ha.
01:07:25Ha.
01:07:25Ha.
01:07:26Ha.
01:07:26Ha.
01:07:27Ha.
01:07:27Ha.
01:07:28Ha.
01:07:29Ha.
01:07:30Ha.
01:07:31Ha.
01:07:32Ha.
01:07:33Ha.
01:07:33Ha.
01:07:34You crazy old bitch!
01:07:35I'm gonna kill you!
01:07:38Dorian!
01:07:38Baby!
01:07:39Did you see what they did here, Mommy?
01:07:42Your ex-wife hired those gangsters to kill me!
01:07:47I'm gonna call the cops.
01:07:48I'm gonna get you all arrested!
01:07:51Go find the best show you can.
01:07:53We need to get that tiara fixed now!

01:10:25of cartelier california she's your friend she's your friend no no no no no no no
01:10:36babe you got back me up on this
01:10:42all i did was crush that cheap ass tiara to prove that it was fake and now everyone's lashing out at
01:10:49me. They hit me. Call the cops. I want everything documented. I'm suing all of them. You smashed
01:10:57the tiara? Yes. You idiot. This is our CEO of Cartelier, Mr. Holland. Apologize to him
01:11:06right now. He's Mr. Holland. I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier. I just slapped the CEO
01:11:17of Cartelier. You didn't just hit me. You destroyed the gift I brought from this
01:11:22Iris. It's not just any tiara. It's a Baltimore tiara. A cultural relic. I paid millions for
01:11:31at Sotheby's. The highest bid. Something you would never afford, even if you sold everything
01:11:37you own. If you're the CEO of Cartelier, and you brought a present for Iris Aster,
01:11:45no way. You morons. You two still don't understand. That man that you mocked for wearing a fake
01:11:55brooch is Alec Aster, chairman of the Aster Dominion, the richest man on earth with a net worth of
01:12:04over $700 billion. And this is Miss Iris Aster, his only daughter, sole heir to his entire empire.
01:12:15Mr. Aster, you're the world's richest man. That means I could have been the son-in-law of the
01:12:20wealthiest man in the world. I would have this whole fortune. It could be mine.
01:12:27So this bitch really is the world's richest, Iris? Damn it. If this keeps going, I'll lose Dorian and
01:12:36everything I've got. Dorian, don't listen to her. Iris lied to you for years about who she
01:12:43really was. She's a manipulative bitch. Even if you two stay married, do you think she'd even give
01:12:48you a send? Say one more word about my daughter and I'll rip your tongue out. Iris, what do you want to do
01:13:00about this? These two have done enough to lose everything they've ever owned and spend the rest
01:13:06of their lives in prison.
01:13:15Iris, please. We're family, right? I promise. Dorian and I didn't really mean to hurt you.
01:13:26We didn't actually know who you were. After three years together, do you think you can find it in
01:13:31your heart? Just let this go? How dare you get tripped, Miss Astor? Didn't you say that you hated
01:13:41me? That you never wanted to see me again? Iris, Iris, Iris, Iris. This is all my fault. I know I
01:13:51messed up and I'm sorry. Really, you used to love me. Doesn't that still mean anything? Are you really
01:13:56going to let me go to jail? Or about our daughter? She needs to see your dad. I swear. I will never
01:14:03listen to another word my mom says. From now on, I will only listen to you. You almost got our baby
01:14:09killed because you couldn't stand up to your own mother. And you have the nerve to ask that of me?
01:14:15You're a bastard, Dorian.
01:14:17We're done. Marrying you was the worst mistake that I ever made in my entire life.
01:14:34You know, your stupidity cost you every single cent you could have got from the Astor fortune.
01:14:40Dad, we'll let the lawyers and the cops handle the rest of this. I want every single cent reimbursed
01:14:46from the tiara. As for Dorian, I won't be pressing charges for the child's sake. But he will be
01:14:52spending the rest of his life paying back the debt that he owes. As for Tessa, if she can't pay back
01:14:58the money that she owes, that she will spend the rest of her life rotting in jail. What she deserves
01:15:04for trying to kill my child.
01:15:09Officers, 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. I've called this meeting to share some good news. As of today, Iris Aster,
01:15:35rightful heir to the Astor Dominion, has officially returned.
01:15:50Thank you all for the warm welcome. Starting today, I will be stepping in as the new CEO for the Astor Dominion.
01:15:56So, can we start our first meeting?
01:16:10These fucking assholes. Don't they know I was the son-in-law of the world's richest man?
01:16:16Yesterday, Iris Aster, the newly appointed CEO of the Astor Dominion, celebrated her daughter's first birthday,
01:16:23renting out the entire Four Seasons in Beverly Hills.
01:16:27Cameras spotted Miss Aster in fully head-to-toe designer with her baby Ivy in her arms.
01:16:32The young heiress is set to inherit one of the world's largest private fortunes.
01:16:36Wait. Why didn't I think of this sooner?
01:16:40You're worse or not, I'm still Ivy's dad.
01:16:42I'm still Ivy's dad.
01:16:52Hello. Some of you may have heard of Iris Aster, the new CEO of the Astor Dominion.
01:16:59I'm her ex-husband.
01:17:00Miss Aster, you need to see this.
01:17:07What?
01:17:08It's her ex-husband, live, spreading rumours about you.
01:17:12We're married for three years.
01:17:15But in the end, she and her billionaire father, Alec Aster, kicked me out just because I wasn't rich enough.
01:17:21And the worst part is, they've taken our daughter Ivy.
01:17:27This is outrageous.
01:17:29I cut Dorian some slack because he's Ivy's father and this is how he repaid me? By slandering me online?
01:17:34It's spreading fast.
01:17:36Disaster. People are calling for a boycott.
01:17:38And now our company's stock just dropped by 8%.
01:17:40I never thought it'd end up like this.
01:17:52Iris and her father, they'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 I can't afford.
01:18:06They even had my mom thrown in prison.
01:18:08I'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. I don't have money.
01:18:16All 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, the Fords are furious. They're demanding you to fix this immediately.
01:18:34What the hell do you want?
01:18:35What the hell do you want?
01:18:39Come on, Iris. We were married for three years. Don't act like I'm some stranger now.
01:18:44I know you still care. I just, uh, I don't want Ivy growing up without her dad. All right?
01:18:48I promise. This time, I'll do whatever you say. I 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. I'm doing this because I love you.
01:18:59If you're willing to take me back, marry me again, then I'll take the videos down. Shut down all the rumors.
01:19:03I swear, your stock won't drop another cent.
01:19:07Wow. You know, you just burned the last bit of mercy that I had left for you.
01:19:12Fine. I will see you in court. I'm gonna make sure the entire world knows exactly who you are.
01:19:18Ungrateful bitch. I'm still Ivy's biological father.
01:19:24You had your chance, Iris. Now, I'm gonna destroy you.
01:19:31Eric, I need you to go get a lawyer. I'm gonna be suing Dorian for defamation and for federal securities laws.
01:19:37Miss Astor, you will win in court, no doubt. The damage to your reputation, I don't think it can be undone.
01:19:45Wait. What if we take him on one of those reality courtroom shows?
01:19:50We lay it all out there for the whole country to see. We'll set the record straight.
01:19:54I like that idea. And if we're gonna do this, we're gonna make sure we do it so the whole world sees exactly who he is.
01:20:00And we are not gonna hold back.
01:20:08Plaintiff Dorian Bates, you are suing Iris Astor for deprivation of custody of your daughter Ivy Astor.
01:20:15You want to modify the custody agreement. Is that correct, sir?
01:20:19Yes, Your Honor. She took my daughter away on the basis of having a wealthier family.
01:20:24And now, she's forcing me to pay back a hundred million dollars in debt.
01:20:27Oh, this is hard to make.
01:20:32Order in the court. This is not a talk show.
01:20:34Defendant, do you have any evidence to counter his claims?
01:20:38Thank you, Your Honor.
01:20:40Mr. Bates is lying.
01:20:42I have here the divorce agreement that he forced me to sign the day that I gave birth.
01:20:47He left me in Ivy.
01:20:49I believe that a father who files for divorce the same day that their daughter enters this world does not deserve any custody.
01:20:55Only because she lied to me first, Your Honor. She hid her real identity and pretended to be from a poor family. If I'd known she was the heiress to the wealthiest family in the world, I never would have left.
01:21:12Sir is saying it's perfectly fine to divorce your wife if she's poor.
01:21:18No, no, no. Your Honor, that's, that's not what I'm saying.
01:21:21As for the debt, Miss Astor, can you provide any evidence in your defense?
01:21:26Yes, Your Honor.
01:21:27My father brought gifts for my daughter the day that I gave birth to her worth over a hundred million dollars.
01:21:34As 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.
01:21:47Wow, this guy's shameless. He asked for a divorce the day his wife gave birth, trashed all his daughter's gifts, and now he has the audacity to blame her for causing all this mess?
01:21:58The way they treated her, it's a miracle she didn't lose the baby.
01:22:01Honestly, the Astor 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.
01:22:14What the hell do you two know? This is clearly all her fault. If 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?
01:22:29Mr. Bates, I've heard more than enough to back the defendant's claims. If all you've got are excuses and attitude, I'm ready to make my ruling.
01:22:37Your Honor, please. I'm still Ivy's biological father, doesn't her opinion matter? Just trust her. Let's see, she loves me more than anyone.
01:22:42She loves me more than anyone.
01:22:54Biological dad or not, she's scared out of her mind. That guy's just a money-hungry leech.
01:22:59You're okay, sweetheart.
01:23:13Looks like the future heiress's favorite person is still her mommy.
01:23:17I'm in favor of giving full custody to the mother. A man who uses his own daughter as a pawn for money shouldn't even be a father.
01:23:24I support Ms. Astor.
01:23:28We support Ms. Astor! We support Ms. Astor! We support Ms. Astor! We support Ms. Astor!
01:23:34Order. I'll now announce the verdict.
01:23:38Full custody will go to...
01:23:40Full custody will go to the defendant, Ms. Iris Astor.
01:23:52What? No. This is rigged. She paid you all off. I want an appeal. Either give me my daughter or pay me alimony.
01:23:59Pay me alimony.
01:24:02Bayless!
01:24:04Hey, hey, stop!
01:24:05Iris!
01:24:06You still haven't paid me any alimony since we got divorced. That's illegal.
01:24:09Did you forget, Dorian? You were the one that forced me to sign the divorce papers.
01:24:13You clearly stated that you wanted nothing to do with my assets or my debt.
01:24:18Any fortune you pushed away is on you.
01:24:20No, that can't be. It can't be like this.
01:24:26I'm refiling for divorce.
01:24:27You can file for whatever you want, Dorian, but I recommend getting a lawyer.
01:24:31I'm suing you for defamation and for violating federal securities laws.
01:24:36Thanks to you, the Astor dominion has lost over $10 billion in market value, which you will pay off in prison.
01:24:42Iris, my baby, please, don't do this.
01:24:45Don't do this. It 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. Right, Dorian?
01:24:57That baby would end up just like its mom. Another greedy, lying con artist.
01:25:02Better to just not have it in the first place.
01:25:10Everything's going to be different now, Ivy.
01:25:12Mommy karma's a brand new start.
