00:00:00Where's Dorian?
00:00:04My baby's coming any second now.
00:00:06What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?
00:00:09He'll be here soon.
00:00:11He's going to get his mom.
00:00:13Seriously, thank you, Anita.
00:00:15For being here.
00:00:17I'm your best friend.
00:00:19I wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:00:22I'm gonna go grab the doctor.
00:00:30Chairman Astor, this gift just came in for you.
00:00:39The CEO of Cartelier is a custom cheetah brooch.
00:00:43It's the purest ruby on the planet.
00:00:47Not bad.
00:01:00Dad.
00:01:02I'm about to have the baby.
00:01:04What?
00:01:07Iris!
00:01:09What?
00:01:10Are you really walking out on your family?
00:01:13Dad!
00:01:14You were wrong about Dorian, okay?
00:01:17He doesn't care about money!
00:01:19He loves me!
00:01:21And I choose him!
00:01:23If you walk through that gate, you are no longer my daughter.
00:01:29And you'll have nothing to do with the Astor name ever again!
00:01:37Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad.
00:01:44And I love your dad.
00:01:46I always will.
00:01:48But I choose him.
00:01:50Because our love is real, Dad.
00:01:53And I'm gonna prove it to you.
00:02:09Congratulations, sir.
00:02:11You're gonna be your grandfather.
00:02:13Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.
00:02:19He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.
00:02:24Still, Iris chose him.
00:02:27And now they're about to have a baby.
00:02:30Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.
00:02:34Get the finest gifts money can buy.
00:02:36I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.
00:02:39I guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.
00:02:47If not,
00:02:49he'll have me to answer to.
00:03:09Mr. Holland.
00:03:10Mr. Holland, what's wrong?
00:03:11What happened?
00:03:12You sounded like you were having a heart attack.
00:03:14Hurry.
00:03:15I need to get the Baltimore Sierra from the vault.
00:03:17I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.
00:03:19You're giving that away?
00:03:21I just got word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on earth, is having a baby today.
00:03:25We must congratulate you with a most spectacular gift.
00:03:28If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion.
00:03:32We're talking billions, Jessica!
00:03:34Billions!
00:03:35Now go!
00:03:36Run!
00:03:37Now!
00:03:38A private hospital? Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here? She's burning through your money like it grows on trees.
00:04:02Mom, please don't get worked up.
00:04:04The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.
00:04:06It's serious.
00:04:07There's a real risk of bleeding.
00:04:09Oh, Dorian.
00:04:11Your wife's just being dramatic.
00:04:14And who does she think she is? Some royal heiress or something?
00:04:17This is why we're bleeding money.
00:04:19If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today, tomorrow, she's going to want to live in Nanny.
00:04:26And then what? A private chef? A butler?
00:04:30What do I do, Mom?
00:04:32You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?
00:04:34No, not yet.
00:04:36Good.
00:04:37When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.
00:04:41Okay, Mom.
00:04:42Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.
00:04:48Oh, my precious baby.
00:04:53Iris, placenta previa is serious. You need to rest and take it easy.
00:04:58We've got you covered around the clock.
00:05:00We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe.
00:05:09Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet you.
00:05:12You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.
00:05:21Tessa, Dorian, you're here.
00:05:23Look at this room.
00:05:30This isn't a hospital.
00:05:32She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.
00:05:36Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-laws gave birth at local clinics and it only cost three grand total.
00:05:45But your wife is spending two grand a night.
00:05:50I don't know, Mom.
00:05:51I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.
00:05:54Ugh.
00:05:55Oh, Dorian.
00:05:57Don't be stupid.
00:05:59This has nothing to do with the baby.
00:06:02She's flaunting.
00:06:03She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite.
00:06:07I warned you, she is not as sweet as she seems.
00:06:13If you keep letting her burn through your money like this, one day you're going to wake up with nothing left.
00:06:22Then what do I do?
00:06:24Don't worry, my sweet boy.
00:06:26You're going to handle everything, okay?
00:06:29Okay.
00:06:31Let's go.
00:06:33Tessa, Dorian, what were you guys talking about?
00:06:35Oh, actually, the doctor said the bill was due.
00:06:38Do you think you could take care of that?
00:06:41Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs?
00:06:45A room like this runs 50, 60 grand.
00:06:49Dorian busts his ass every day to support this family.
00:06:52Stop blowing through his savings and leave this hospital immediately.
00:07:03What?
00:07:04Leave the hospital.
00:07:05A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt before the baby's even born.
00:07:10Could you just think about Dorian for once?
00:07:16Tessa, I love him.
00:07:19I'm not wasting anyone's money.
00:07:21I chose this hospital because I have placentia previa.
00:07:24I could bleed out.
00:07:25And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency.
00:07:29I'm not here for comfort.
00:07:31I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.
00:07:35Dorian,
00:07:37I know how hard you work.
00:07:40Just let me stay one night and just to make sure the baby is stable and then we can transfer, I promise.
00:07:46Son, don't fall for that.
00:07:49We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight.
00:07:52If she drags this out, it's going to be thousands more down the drain.
00:07:56Tessa, this is between my husband and I.
00:07:59Please just give us a moment.
00:08:01I'm his mother.
00:08:02Dorian's opinion is my opinion.
00:08:05Now come on.
00:08:06We are leaving this hospital.
00:08:09Ow!
00:08:12Dorian.
00:08:18Dorian!
00:08:19Iris, let's just go to a local clinic.
00:08:25Raising a kid is expensive.
00:08:26We need to save where we can.
00:08:28That's right.
00:08:29We're not the bad guys here.
00:08:31Tons of women give birth at local hospitals.
00:08:34But you are a greedy little leech.
00:08:38And I'm not letting you bleed my son dry.
00:08:41What do you think he is?
00:08:43Your personal ATM?
00:08:44I'm not trying to waste anyone's money.
00:08:47I have a low-lying placenta.
00:08:49And if something goes wrong,
00:08:51the BB could die.
00:08:53Don't go soft on her.
00:08:55Let her play you.
00:08:56Every pregnant woman has complications.
00:08:59Just because it's risky doesn't mean it's going to happen.
00:09:02If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest of your life.
00:09:07You're right, Mom.
00:09:09Thanks for always having my back.
00:09:11Mm-hmm.
00:09:12I'm here for you.
00:09:13Unlike certain people,
00:09:16I will never let someone make a fool of you.
00:09:20Iris, if you want to stay in this hospital, fine.
00:09:24But you're going to pay for it yourself.
00:09:27I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you
00:09:31waste one more cent of my son's money.
00:09:35Ah!
00:09:37Something's wrong with me.
00:09:39You call an entrepreneur.
00:09:40Iris, do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:09:46Mm-hmm.
00:09:48Mm-hmm.
00:09:49I'll see Iris first.
00:09:59You wait here.
00:10:00Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:10:01Dorian, what happened to you?
00:10:02Okay.
00:10:03I don't know if I'll pay for it.
00:10:04Okay.
00:10:05I'll see Iris first.
00:10:06You wait here.
00:10:07Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
00:10:10Dorian, what happened to you?
00:10:12Okay.
00:10:13I don't know if I'll pay for it.
00:10:14I don't know if I'll pay for it.
00:10:15Okay.
00:10:16I don't know if I'll pay for it.
00:10:17Hi.
00:10:18Could you settle the bill with us, please?
00:10:20See?
00:10:21She had the cash all along.
00:10:22Oh.
00:10:23Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.
00:10:27She doesn't feel the pressure now.
00:10:28She's never going to pay for it.
00:10:29She agrees to pay for it herself.
00:10:30Dorian, what happened to you?
00:10:31Okay.
00:10:32I don't know if I'll pay for it.
00:10:33Okay.
00:10:34I don't know if I'll pay for it.
00:10:35Hi.
00:10:36Could you settle the bill with us, please?
00:10:38See?
00:10:39She had the cash all along.
00:10:41Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.
00:10:47She doesn't feel the pressure now.
00:10:49She's never going to know what it takes to keep a family afloat.
00:10:52You're right, Mom.
00:10:53You always are.
00:10:54You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.
00:10:57That's right.
00:10:58My precious baby boy.
00:11:02I'm sorry, ma'am.
00:11:03Your card was declined.
00:11:04You're short about $20,000.
00:11:07If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.
00:11:10This is everything I have left.
00:11:17Is she really broke?
00:11:19It doesn't make any sense.
00:11:21With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.
00:11:24Yeah, well, that's because I cover all the household bills.
00:11:27And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff.
00:11:31Vitamins, supplements, hospital visits.
00:11:33I mean, it all adds up, Dorian.
00:11:35What on earth has she been through these past three years?
00:11:39Brian, can you just...
00:11:42Please, just consider it alone.
00:11:44Just...
00:11:45I swear, I'll put you back.
00:11:47Absolutely not.
00:11:49Don't fall for this.
00:11:50Every wife stashes emergency cash.
00:11:54Did you see how she pulled that card out like it was nothing?
00:11:57Do you think it's her only one?
00:11:59She's still hiding money.
00:12:01I know she is.
00:12:05Dorian, please.
00:12:09Please, just help me pay the 20 grand.
00:12:11I swear, I'll pay you back.
00:12:14Don't fall for her act.
00:12:16I know what you're playing at.
00:12:18You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.
00:12:21And then you're just gonna run away without paying a cent.
00:12:25How could you say that?
00:12:27Okay.
00:12:28Okay, Dorian.
00:12:29I think something's gonna happen with the baby.
00:12:30The baby's in trouble.
00:12:31You're not fooling anyone.
00:12:32If you're really so broke, why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?
00:12:46You've already drained him dry.
00:12:49What more do you want from him?
00:12:51Dorian.
00:12:52Dorian, please, I'm begging you.
00:12:54Please just say something.
00:12:55Don't fall for her drama.
00:12:58You have two choices.
00:12:59Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital, or she can pay for everything herself.
00:13:04And if she doesn't want to do either, then we don't want the baby anyway.
00:13:10Okay.
00:13:11I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:13:13Okay.
00:13:14I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:13:16Okay.
00:13:17I'll listen to you, Mom.
00:13:19Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.
00:13:22And when you started your business, I supported you.
00:13:25I gave you everything that I have.
00:13:28I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments.
00:13:31I have nothing left.
00:13:32Please save us the sob story.
00:13:36You ruined your own ties with your family.
00:13:39Don't blame Dorian for that.
00:13:41If you want to stay here, then fine.
00:13:44Pay for it yourself.
00:13:46But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.
00:13:53It hurts.
00:13:54Please, can I just see a doctor of hers?
00:13:58Oh, my God, Iris.
00:14:00Stop acting like the victim.
00:14:02Now it all makes sense.
00:14:04You stayed here to show off.
00:14:05When did you become so shallow?
00:14:08You become shallow.
00:14:10Well, aren't you?
00:14:12If you were really worried about the baby, why wouldn't you take out a loan?
00:14:17This is 2025.
00:14:19There's apps for that.
00:14:20You want me to take out a highly predatory, high interest loan to give birth.
00:14:26He's going to be your grandchild.
00:14:28I mean, how could you be so heartless?
00:14:30Are you really guilt tripping me right now?
00:14:34You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby.
00:14:38God, in my day, we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth.
00:14:42We gave birth at home for free.
00:14:45I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.
00:14:49This is ridiculous.
00:14:50I didn't marry Dorian for the money.
00:14:53Stop lying!
00:14:55If you weren't after our money, why haven't you taken out the loan yet?
00:15:01Quit stalling.
00:15:02I hurt.
00:15:06Bastards!
00:15:11How dare you treat my precious daughter like this?
00:15:14Alone?
00:15:18Are you seriously making Iris take out a loan?
00:15:21Oh my God.
00:15:22Iris.
00:15:23Are you okay?
00:15:25I got you.
00:15:28Okay.
00:15:29What is wrong with you?
00:15:31She's your wife.
00:15:32She's about to give birth.
00:15:34This is a family matter.
00:15:35Stay out of it.
00:15:36Stay out of it?
00:15:37You expect me to watch you and your mom abuse my best friend?
00:15:44Okay.
00:15:45Okay.
00:15:46Okay.
00:15:47Okay.
00:15:48Nurse.
00:15:49Nurse, please check her.
00:15:50She's in so much pain.
00:15:51Is the baby coming?
00:15:52She's in early labor.
00:15:54Internal bleeding started.
00:15:56We have to admit her now.
00:15:57Sir, you have to pay the hospital bill immediately.
00:15:59You haven't paid the bill yet?
00:16:01That's why you want her to take out a loan?
00:16:04She's about to give birth to your child and you want her to pay by yourself?
00:16:08What kind of man does that?
00:16:10Thank God.
00:16:11At least my baby girl has a good friend by her side.
00:16:14Shut your mouth.
00:16:16This has nothing to do with you.
00:16:18Get your shit together.
00:16:20Doctor said she's high risk.
00:16:22This isn't about luxury.
00:16:23It's about survival.
00:16:24She's here to keep herself and the baby alive.
00:16:26What the hell do you know?
00:16:27It's not like you've ever given birth before.
00:16:30Exactly.
00:16:31You're just a loud mouth that thinks that screaming makes you right.
00:16:35You're just like your friend.
00:16:37A gold digger.
00:16:38If you care so much, why don't you pay the damn 20 grand yourself?
00:16:43We're not paying a cent.
00:16:45She can give birth on the floor if she wants.
00:16:48What's the worst that can happen?
00:16:51You two are unbelievable.
00:16:54Touch my mom and there's more where that came from.
00:16:59Even if you are Iris' friend.
00:17:03Touch my mom and there's more where that came from.
00:17:05Anita.
00:17:06Don't fight them.
00:17:07We're in.
00:17:08Just don't hurt her.
00:17:09I will take out the load.
00:17:10Aw.
00:17:11Couldn't win with your words.
00:17:12You had to use your fists, huh?
00:17:13How classy.
00:17:14I'm so sorry, Mom.
00:17:15Are you all right?
00:17:16I'll be okay.
00:17:17For your sake.
00:17:18You've never been a good daughter-in-law.
00:17:19Your parents didn't even send a dime for the wedding.
00:17:21Do you know that when Mrs. Smith's son got married, her in-laws sent 50 grand cash and they gave her a brand new Tesla.
00:17:31Not only did you show up with nothing, now you're trying to empty his bank account too.
00:17:36I'm sorry, baby.
00:17:37You deserve so much better than that.
00:17:38Nurse, you could use it a little bit with this quickly, please.
00:17:39See?
00:17:40Was it that hard?
00:17:41That's what it means to be part of the Bates family.
00:17:45But you're not off the hook yet.
00:17:46What else could you possibly want from me?
00:17:47Well, I'm sorry.
00:17:48I'm sorry, baby.
00:17:49You deserve so much better than that.
00:17:50Nurse, you could use it a little bit with this quickly, please.
00:17:51See?
00:17:52Was it that hard?
00:17:53That's what it means to be part of the Bates family.
00:17:56Well, you're not off the hook yet.
00:18:03What else could you possibly want from me?
00:18:14Well, you're still married to Dorian, so he could be responsible for your debt.
00:18:19But you took out the loan on your own, right?
00:18:22You should be the one to pay it back.
00:18:24So, here's what's gonna happen.
00:18:26You're gonna sign a simple statement that says that Dorian is not responsible for any of it.
00:18:34Who the hell did you just say?
00:18:37I said I want you to sign this disclaimer that exempts Dorian from any liability for your debt.
00:18:45No way!
00:18:46I am not just having this baby alone.
00:18:49I mean, this is Dorian's child, too.
00:18:51And more importantly, this child isn't yours.
00:18:54The financial decisions are solely between my husband and I.
00:18:59How dare you raise your voice to me?
00:19:03Do you think you're hot shit just because Dorian knocked you up?
00:19:07You are nothing but a disrespectful little brat speaking to your mother-in-law that way.
00:19:14Iris, seriously, you should treat my mother with more respect.
00:19:17Are you hearing this?
00:19:19I was just standing here sticking up for you and then she gives me this attitude.
00:19:24Once she pushes the baby out, you're gonna need to put your foot down with her.
00:19:30Iris, you've already taken out the loan.
00:19:33So why are you dragging your feet signing the disclaimer?
00:19:37Sign the damn disclaimer!
00:19:39You two are unbelievable.
00:19:42This baby has your family's DNA.
00:19:45Refusing financial liability is one thing,
00:19:48but putting her health at risk right before birth, it's diabolical.
00:19:54Like my mom said, all pregnancies come with some level of risk,
00:19:57but you don't see every pregnant woman spending a fortune, do you?
00:20:01If Iris wants to stay in this plush-ass hospital, then she can cough up the cash for it.
00:20:05Bastard!
00:20:06Oh!
00:20:08Don't fight them, it's not worth it, okay?
00:20:11Dorian, I will sign the disclaimer.
00:20:15But you have to promise me that you will not tell my dad.
00:20:21I don't want him to worry about me.
00:20:23It took a long time to get him to accept you.
00:20:27And when his baby is born, I just wanted to have a complete family.
00:20:32What does Iris' dad do?
00:20:35Not sure.
00:20:36I only met him once.
00:20:38Just seemed like your average Joe.
00:20:40So he's just a nobody?
00:20:43Huh.
00:20:44Except Dorian.
00:20:46Who the hell does your father think he is?
00:20:49Some billionaire CEO.
00:20:51He's just a broke-ass bum who didn't even go to his daughter's wedding.
00:20:57He doesn't give a damn about you.
00:21:01Never even loved you anyways.
00:21:03Dad?
00:21:04You're already here.
00:21:05Yes, baby.
00:21:06Daddy's here now.
00:21:08If I got here any later, God knows what these two would have done to you.
00:21:17So you're Iris' father.
00:21:19You got here just in time.
00:21:21As her father, I demand that you sign this disclaimer on her behalf.
00:21:40Did you leave my dad out of this?
00:21:44Oh my God, Dorian.
00:21:45Your wife just won't stop yelling at me.
00:21:47Iris, if you can't start showing my mom some basic respect, I'm going to have to stop playing nice.
00:21:53Iris, is this the man you gave up everything for?
00:21:59Dorian is a wonderful man, but his mom is gaslighting.
00:22:03I mean, he can't see how severe the situation is with the baby.
00:22:08Iris, all she's trying to do is help.
00:22:10If she wanted to help, then she wouldn't be here causing a scene!
00:22:16Oh, Mr. Astor, if you're so concerned, why don't you sign the form and take on your daughter's 20 grand of debt?
00:22:25Mr. Astor, don't listen to her.
00:22:28First, she forced Iris to take out a loan with a crazy high interest rate,
00:22:31and now she wants you to pay it back.
00:22:33She's way out of line.
00:22:34Well, Dorian sure as hell isn't going to pay it.
00:22:37Iris' debt has shit to do with him.
00:22:40I'm just trying for everyone to stop ganging up on my boy.
00:22:44Anita, keep digging your nose into our family's business and I'll have security drag your ass out.
00:22:50Iris, is this the true love you threw your whole life away for?
00:23:03And we are going to be living happily ever after, even if we have absolutely nothing.
00:23:10Because our love is real, Dad!
00:23:13And I'm going to prove it to you.
00:23:21Have you got a screw loose?
00:23:23You can't have true love without money.
00:23:25This is real life, not some fairy tale.
00:23:28Now quit stalling and sign the damn disclaimer!
00:23:32Your mom is making my dad.
00:23:34Sign this disclaimer and you are just going to stand there?
00:23:37Iris, all I've ever asked is that you be sympathetic to my financial constraints and not be wasteful with money.
00:23:43How is that still so hard for you to understand?
00:23:45I can't believe I'm about to sign off on a measly $20,000.
00:23:51Word gets out, I'll be the laughing stock of every boardroom in town.
00:23:59Iris, if this is really the happily ever after you want, I'll do it for you and the baby.
00:24:21I'll do this contract null and void.
00:24:31I gave you an out.
00:24:41This is how you react?
00:24:43You are leaving this hospital right now.
00:24:46I don't care where that baby is born, but it sure as hell is not going to be here.
00:24:51Just shut up!
00:24:56This baby is between Dorian and I, so stop getting in between us!
00:25:01You are a monstrous disgrace of a woman.
00:25:06What did you just call me?
00:25:08A disgrace!
00:25:10Dorian, I stood up for you through everything!
00:25:16When you wanted to chase your dreams and start your business, I gave you all of my savings and now I swallow my pride and I take out this predatory loan.
00:25:33Because you don't even want to pay for the birth of your own child!
00:25:39Now you're asking my dad to sign this bullshit disclaimer!
00:25:44Dorian, you should be ashamed of yourself.
00:25:50Iris, I was not trying to-
00:25:51Dorian, don't fall for her act.
00:25:54She is just a spoiled, materialistic snob who insists on giving birth in the most expensive hospital.
00:26:03You're right, mom.
00:26:05Iris, stop acting like the victim.
00:26:08You chose this place to show off, trying to make yourself look rich and important.
00:26:14Look, if you don't want to sign the disclaimer, fine, but don't expect any help from me when the baby comes.
00:26:20So, you would hurt your back on your baby because of money.
00:26:30Okay, fine.
00:26:35And I will raise this baby on my own.
00:26:43Dorian, I want a divorce.
00:26:45Of course.
00:27:05Iris.
00:27:07Iris.
00:27:08Stop!
00:27:09What do you mean you want a divorce?
00:27:10Do you not love me anymore?!
00:27:12I mean, I feel like I should be asking you if you ever really loved me.
00:27:17Dorian, what were you doing in there when your control freak of a mother was harassing me, enforcing my dad to sign the disclaimer?
00:27:24I told you not to talk about my mom like that. All she's trying to do is help.
00:27:27Well, if that is what you think, then you should just live with your mom for the rest of your life.
00:27:31Iris, have you ever actually looked in the mirror?
00:27:35You're trash. And trash doesn't get to talk to my son like that. Touch me with your filthy hands.
00:27:45Dorian! First, she was just spouting threats at me. And now, she's actually flat out assaulting me.
00:27:54You're a complete psycho.
00:27:57Iris, did you just push my mom? I mean, you're acting like a fucking lunatic.
00:28:01You're just gonna pin this on me because I'm psycho?
00:28:04Iris, I gave you sound financial advice out of the kindness of my own heart.
00:28:12And instead of being grateful, you attack me. Is that not exactly what a psycho would do?
00:28:19No. It's not. But this is...
00:28:27You bitch!
00:28:29How dare you fucking hit me. I'm gonna fucking kill you!
00:28:34Touch my daughter again and you're dead!
00:28:42Dorian, they're ganging up on me. They're trying to beat up your poor old mother.
00:28:47Iris, I was blind to marry someone like you.
00:28:50No, Dorian, I was the blind one. I was the one who abandoned my family for a scumbag like you!
00:28:56You know, I really thought that you were different. I thought that you were a good man.
00:29:03A man who didn't care about money. A man who truly loved me.
00:29:08But it turns out, you were the type of man who abandoned their own child over $20,000 and let their mother manipulate my father into signing a stupid agreement!
00:29:21Iris! You took out the loan yourself! Give me one good reason why my son should be responsible for your debt!
00:29:30Honestly, I've never seen anyone so shameless.
00:29:35You know, my Dorian was a real catch back then.
00:29:39And out of all the girls he could have chosen, he ended up with a useless wife like you.
00:29:47A broke ass bitch who couldn't even afford to pay for the wedding.
00:29:52You know, since you've married my son, you've done nothing for our family.
00:29:57I mean, you could barely afford the mortgage and car payments.
00:30:01You only forked out a few thousand dollars when Dorian was trying to start his own business.
00:30:06And now, you are trying to bleed him dry.
00:30:10This wife covers the mortgage and the car payments, and she gave him money to start a business.
00:30:15It sounds like enough to me. I mean, what do they want from her?
00:30:18They're clearly the ones bleeding her dry.
00:30:20My wife like that? I'd be living the dream.
00:30:23Right?
00:30:24That guy's mom looks super controlling. She's probably trying to drive a wedge between her son and his wife.
00:30:28What the hell do you idiots know? I'm just trying to protect my son's interests!
00:30:33You don't know shit. Unlike some moms, mine actually cares about me. So shut up and stay out of our business.
00:30:40And you. You didn't even send a dime when Dorian and Iris got married.
00:30:46And now, you show up empty handed again today.
00:30:51Who says I came empty handed?
00:30:57Who says I came empty handed?
00:30:59Oh, please. Look at these fake designer clothes.
00:31:04So, uh, my clothes are fake now?
00:31:07No shit, they are. Cartelier is a Parisian jewelry brand, and you are wearing a blatant counterfeit of their cheetah brooch.
00:31:19Their most iconic item. If everything that you were wearing were legit, your outfit would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
00:31:28If you really had the means to afford top of the line stuff, why would Iris leave her family and work three jobs just to support herself?
00:31:41My baby girl, you've been through so much these last few years.
00:31:46Shut up!
00:31:48Ugh! Don't yell at me, you shrew!
00:31:52Dorian and I get to decide where and when that baby gets born.
00:31:58Looks like the only way to get you two to shut up is to bring out my gifts.
00:32:08Eric, bring the gifts in.
00:32:15Now.
00:32:16You are still keeping up that act?
00:32:20We're here, boss.
00:32:32Did you hire a group of actors?
00:32:35Did you really think that we were gonna fall for this?
00:32:40Iris, this entire thing started just because I wanted you to save a little money.
00:32:43Are you seriously blowing it this far out of proportion?
00:32:46No, no, no, sweetie. Leave it.
00:32:48I'm actually dying to see what the tree gifts this 20 grand in debt broke old bum brought with him.
00:33:05Good God! I've never seen that much hard cash.
00:33:15And with this many cases, it's gotta be, what, 7 or 8 million?
00:33:19No way. That's at least 10 mil.
00:33:22This was supposed to be your wedding gift.
00:33:25You mean this 10 million dollars? If it's gonna be mine?
00:33:29Open the rest.
00:33:40These are the gifts I've prepared for Iris' baby.
00:33:42That's the Pink Star, the world's most expensive diamond.
00:33:46Along with Bulgari's classic emerald jewel set.
00:33:50Only the best for my grandchild.
00:33:52Holy shit, the Pink Star diamond!
00:33:55The jewels in that case are worth almost a hundred million.
00:33:59Those are the deeds to seven mansions.
00:34:02All worth around 70 million dollars.
00:34:05Because seven is Iris' lucky number.
00:34:07This is my grandchild's trust fund, worth over 200 million in assets.
00:34:16I've also arranged for the child to have one million dollars per month until they turn 18.
00:34:27A 200 million dollar trust fund for a child that's not even born yet? That's crazy.
00:34:32If you two hadn't decided to abuse Iris today, all of this could have been yours.
00:34:39That's an insane amount of wealth.
00:34:41Man, that guy was so close to being the luckiest son-in-law in the world.
00:34:46And him and his mom were just calling her broke.
00:34:49They burned bridges with their super rich in-laws over a little 20 grand.
00:34:53I guess that's what the dude gets for being such a mom as well.
00:34:56If his evil mom had just treated her daughter-in-law with the minimum fair decency,
00:35:02she would have all that money in her pocket right now.
00:35:04This should have been mine.
00:35:07It was all supposed to be mine.
00:35:11You didn't speak a single word in Iris' defense today.
00:35:15If you just stood up for your wife, this could have all belonged to you.
00:35:19You're supposed to be my daughter's husband, my grandchild's father.
00:35:24But you just stood there while your crazy mother tormented Iris and put the baby at risk.
00:35:34You are a god damn coward!
00:35:38Mom, look what you've done. This is all your fault.
00:35:41Dorian, don't be rash. Think about it.
00:35:45If Iris really was filthy rich, why would she need to take out a loan?
00:35:51Why would she need to work three jobs just to pay for the wedding?
00:35:57No! We're getting played.
00:36:01Iris and her father are putting on an act.
00:36:04Oh! Stay back!
00:36:10Don't take one more step!
00:36:13What? You're gonna beat up an old lady in front of all these witnesses?
00:36:18You stole from me, okay?
00:36:21The thief doesn't get to play the victim.
00:36:25You actually had me there, old man.
00:36:29For a second.
00:36:30I actually thought that you were rich.
00:36:32But look what we have here.
00:36:35A fake Cartelier brooch.
00:36:38It's a fake?
00:36:40Fake as they come.
00:36:42My best friend is Cartelier California's regional manager.
00:36:49You see, Cartelier cheetah brooches have red ruby eyes and black diamond bodies.
00:36:57But yours has white diamonds.
00:36:59It's nothing but a shoddy knockoff.
00:37:03And if this is fake, then all those other luxury gifts are fake as well.
00:37:10Fake as well.
00:37:15Wait, Mom. So you're saying the cash, jewelry, even the trust fund? They're all fake?
00:37:20Don't be silly, Dorian.
00:37:22If he really had money, why would he be wearing a fake brooch?
00:37:28That's enough.
00:37:30That's enough.
00:37:31My best friend, Sadie, is Cartelier California's regional manager.
00:37:36I'll just give her a call.
00:37:38Tell her to come down here to prove that this is a fake.
00:37:42Sadie, it's me.
00:37:44It's me.
00:37:45I have someone here with a blatant fake Cartelier brooch.
00:37:51I need you to come down here to prove that it's a counterfeit.
00:37:55Well, the craftsmanship on this brooch is impeccable, I must say.
00:38:09However, we don't make cheetah brooches with a white diamond.
00:38:13Tessa, this is counterfeit. Tell me where you got it so that I can trace it back to its source.
00:38:21Where do you think?
00:38:23From Iris' wannabe rich daddy over there.
00:38:28And get this, he also showed up with several million dollars in cash, property, deeds, jewelry.
00:38:37I mean, can you believe this guy?
00:38:40Well, I'll be damned.
00:38:43I can't believe the nerve of them to try and pull a fast one on you like this.
00:38:49I can confidently say that all of this stuff you see here, everything, it's all fake.
00:38:58Fake, you say?
00:39:04Then let's double check.
00:39:13Well, it must be fake to break that easily.
00:39:26Spit it out.
00:39:27Where did you get the counterfeit brooch?
00:39:30Well, ma'am, your brand custom designed it for me. It's worth over two million dollars.
00:39:37Now that you've destroyed my brooch, how do you plan on compensating me for it?
00:39:41Wow, Grandpa's gone off his rocker. You're just some broke old geezer wearing fake jewelry. What are you talking about? Compensation? Let's face facts. I caught you wearing a knockoff of our brand. And parading around here with all this fake currency.
00:40:03I'm going to call headquarters to report you and then I'm calling the police. Our CEO, Mr. Holland, is the richest man in the city. You cross him and you're dead.
00:40:15Who's Mr. Holland again?
00:40:18Sir, Mr. Holland is the one who gifted you the brooch this morning.
00:40:22Give me a break! Mr. Holland is our CEO. He would never in a million years give you such a precious gift, you broke old geezer.
00:40:35Who do you think you are? The richest fucking man on earth?
00:40:39You think you can fake it until you make it? I am going to call headquarters to report you and then I'm going to call the police.
00:40:51You can rot in jail for selling counterfeit goods.
00:40:55Tessa, dear, please keep an eye on them for me, will you? We cannot let this family of swindlers escape.
00:41:01They deserve to spend the rest of their lives behind bars.
00:41:09The $10 million cash. The $200 million trust fund. All fakes. The jig is up. You're nothing but a couple of low-class crooks.
00:41:23You know what? It's one thing to buy counterfeit goods, but forging currency is a federal offence.
00:41:33I just can't wait for you to waste away in prison with your looser daddy.
00:41:40Yeah, yeah, you're totally right. Just because you say it's fake definitely means it's fake.
00:41:58Dorian, see? This is the woman that you married. Nothing but a cheap scammer who teams up with her father to trick us with shoddy fakes.
00:42:13And now that the cat's out of the bag, they're not even denying it.
00:42:18So this is the real you, Iris? A woman who enlists her father to try and scam her own husband?
00:42:22You never loved me at all, did you? I bet you orchestrated this whole charade just to get your hands on my money.
00:42:30You disgust me, Iris.
00:42:33No, Dorian, you disgust me.
00:42:35God, how did I even end up with a complete fucking idiot?
00:42:39How dare you talk about my son that way?
00:42:42I can't wait until the cops show up and throw your sorry ass in jail.
00:42:48Okay, well, don't get ahead of yourself. When the cops get here, they're gonna ask you to compensate for the bruise that you destroyed.
00:42:55And when they do, don't come begging us for mercy.
00:43:01Iris, I believed you back then. I thought you left your family because you love me. Turns out, you're actually just a shameless fraud this whole time.
00:43:08Dorian, can you just, please, just use your frickin' brain for once. You do not have anything that is worth stealing in the first place.
00:43:18I was the one that covered all of our household bills and expenses. I was the one that covered our mortgage and our car. Everything.
00:43:27Actually, you know what? I'm done. I am tired and I am exhausted and I really do not want to deal with you right now. And so, actually, you know what? Starting today, Dorian, you mean nothing to me.
00:43:42And to my child. Let's go, Dad.
00:43:48Hey! Stop right there! You can get divorced, but this baby belongs to our family and it's not going anywhere. You out of your mind, let me go!

01:04:29oh baby you were a scumbag you destroyed the only thing that my mother gave me and i swear on her name
01:04:39that i will make you both pay i am calling the clocks you two are getting locked up
01:04:59that's all right mr astor mr astor mr astor it's an honor i'm byron holland ceo of cartel year i sent over the cheater brooch earlier this morning
01:05:09appreciate it that's the ceo of cartel year i've seen him on magazine covers before wow he's treating my girls small there was such respect who is he if i had to guess he's the chairman of the astor dominion
01:05:23of such respect. Who is he? If I had to guess, he's the chairman of the Astro Dominion, the richest man
01:05:30on the planet. Oh my god, that tiara is shining. Mr. Astro, I heard your daughter had a gay birth
01:05:36today. I prepared a small gift to celebrate. Oh, thank you. That's very nice. But really, there's
01:05:42no meaning. Oh no, we just turned down Mr. Holland in front of everyone. That tiara doesn't look
01:05:48fake to me. What if Iris and her dad are actually the real deal? No, that's impossible. There's
01:05:54no way a bottom feeder like her would be the world's richest heiress. Think about it, Dorian.
01:06:01Why would a rich heiress leave everything behind and work three jobs just to marry a regular guy
01:06:07like you? That tiara must be a fake. Don't fall for it, Dorian. What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:13What kind of nonsense is that? And a CEO, please. More like a deadbeat actor they hired off the
01:06:25street. Well, you really think they're faking it? Of course they are, Dorian. Look, you're lucky
01:06:33that you're divorcing her. Not only did she show up with all those knockoff goods, she brought
01:06:39in a group of cheap actors to back her up. Are you kidding me? This is the Baltimore tiara.
01:06:46I dropped eight million at Sotheby's on it and I have the certificate to prove it. Oh yeah. And
01:06:52how do we know the certificate's not fake? I mean, if you can forge currency and impersonate
01:06:59the CEO of Cartelier. Faking a paper's nothing. You're insane. Everything you say is nonsense.
01:07:07I'm insane? You're the one pissing me off. I'm gonna fuck you up.
01:07:14You crazy old bitch. I'm gonna kill you. Dorian! Baby! Did you see what they did here,
01:07:32mommy? Your ex-wife hired those gangsters to kill me. I'm gonna call the cops. I'm gonna get you all
01:07:40arrested. Go find the best show you can. We need to get that teara fixed now. Yes, sir.
01:07:49They can't be repaired. I'm gonna make you regret it.
01:07:56You can't just hit her like that. That's assault. You people are the real criminals. Here we go again.
01:08:02You're just like your mom. Always pointing fingers, never owning up to anything. Nothing but dead weight.
01:08:10Your mom just trashed someone else's property and you're calling him the criminal for standing up for
01:08:15himself. Mr. Holland, what brings you here? You know her? No, no, of course not. You may not remember me,
01:08:25but I'm Sadie Smith, regional manager for Cartelier's California branch. In fact, that whole cheetah brooch
01:08:32scandal, I was the one that called it into headquarters. I couldn't have known it was gonna
01:08:36cause such a fuss, much less bring you here in person. Cheetah brooch you talk about. Where is
01:08:43it? Let me take a look. Where is it? Let me take a look. Yes, absolutely. Uh, you. You there with the
01:08:51fake brooch. Show it to Mr. Holland immediately. Oh, that fake brooch. Mr. Holland gave it to me
01:08:59himself. Why did you ask him if it's real or not? Mr. Holland, the CEO of Cartelier. Tessa,
01:09:07everything you see is fake. Why don't we double check? It must have been fake for it to break so easily.
01:09:17Seriously? You're gonna keep making stuff up when the CEO is standing right here in front of you? Sir,
01:09:25please don't take it personally that men like him can't afford the real thing, so they masquerade in
01:09:30fakes. Frankly, I think it damages our image. I have a friend who's a journalist at CBS. If you'd like,
01:09:37I could put in a call to her so that she can bring this whole scandal to the news media. You want to take this to the media?
01:09:42You want to bring the media in on this? Of course, I think it would be best to protect our image. Or it
01:09:50will ruin the company. Fucking idiots! Mr. Holland, why would you do that? I was just trying to protect
01:09:57the company. Because you deserved it. Mr. Holland, you arrogant asshole. Who the fuck do you think you
01:10:08are hitting my friend like that? Do you even know who she is? This is Sadie Smith, regional manager of
01:10:17Cartelier, California. She's your friend? She's your friend? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:10:26Hey, you gotta back me up on this. But all I did was crush that cheap-ass tiara to prove that it was fake.
01:10:38And now everyone's lashing out at me. But hippie, call the cops. I want everything documented. I'm suing all of them.
01:10:46You smashed the tiara? Yes! You idiot! This is our CEO of Cartelier, Mr. Holland. Apologize to him right now.
01:10:57Mr. Holland, I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier. I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:08You didn't just hit me. You destroyed the gift I brought from Miss Iris. It's not just any tiara. It's a
01:11:16Baltimore tiara. A cultural relic. I paid millions for at Sotheby's. The highest bid.
01:11:25Something you would never afford, even if you sold everything you own. If you're the CEO of Cartelier,
01:11:30you brought a present? For Iris Aster? No way. You morons. You two still don't understand.
01:11:42That man that you mocked for wearing a fake brooch is Alec Aster. Chairman of the Aster Dominion.
01:11:50The richest man on earth. With a net worth of over 700 billion. And this is Miss Iris Aster. His only daughter.
01:12:03Sole hair to his entire empire. Mr. Aster, you're the world's richest man. That means I could have been
01:12:10son-in-law of the wealthiest man in the world. I would have this whole fortune. It could be mine.
01:12:15So this bitch really is the world's richest heiress? Damn it. If this keeps going,
01:12:24I'll lose Dorian and everything I've got. Dorian, don't listen to her. Iris lied to you for years
01:12:32about who she really was. She's a manipulative bitch. Even if you two stay married, do you think
01:12:38she'd even give you a scent? Say one more word about my daughter and I'll rip your tongue out!
01:12:48Iris, what do you want to do about this? These two have done enough to lose everything
01:12:54they've ever owned and spend the rest of their lives in prison.
01:13:06Hey, Iris. Please. We're family, right?
01:13:12I promise. Dorian and I didn't really mean to hurt you. We didn't actually know who you were.
01:13:18After three years together, do you think you can find it in your heart? Just let this go?
01:13:26How dare you get tripped, Miss Astor?
01:13:30Didn't you say that you hated me? That you never wanted to see me again?
01:13:37Iris. Iris, baby. Iris.
01:13:40This is all my fault. I know I messed up and I'm sorry.
01:13:42Not really. You used to love me. Doesn't that still mean anything? Are you really gonna let me
01:13:47go to jail? Or put our daughter? She needs to see your dad. I swear. I will never listen to another
01:13:55word my mom says. From now on, I will only listen to you. You almost got our baby killed because you
01:14:00couldn't stand up to your own mother. And you have the nerve to ask that of me? You're a bastard, Dorian.
01:14:07We're done. Marrying you was the worst mistake that I ever made in my entire life.
01:14:25You know, your stupidity cost you every single cent you could have got from the Astor Fortune.
01:14:30Dad, we'll let the lawyers and the cops handle the rest of this. I want every single cent reimbursed
01:14:36from the tiara. As for Dorian, I won't be pressing charges for the child's sake. But he will be
01:14:42spending the rest of his life paying back the debt that he owes. As for Tessa, if she can't pay back
01:14:48the money that she owes, that she will spend the rest of her life rotting in jail. What she deserves
01:14:54for trying to kill my child.
01:14:59Iris.
01:15:00Officers, we'll let you take it from here.
01:15:02Iris, congrats on making it out of hell. Let's go home.
01:15:19Thank you all for coming. I've called this meeting to share some good news. As of today, Iris Aster,
01:15:26rightful heir to the Astor Dominion, has officially returned.
01:15:41Thank you all for the warm welcome. Starting today, I will be stepping in as the new CEO for
01:15:46the Astor Dominion. So, why don't we start our first meeting?
01:16:01These fucking assholes. Don't they know I was the son-in-law of the world's richest man?
01:16:07Yesterday, Iris Aster, the newly appointed CEO of the Astor Dominion, celebrated her daughter's
01:16:13first birthday, renting out the entire Four Seasons in Beverly Hills.
01:16:17Cameras spotted Miss Aster in fully head-to-toe designer with her baby Ivy in her arms.
01:16:23The young heiress is set to inherit one of the world's largest private fortunes.
01:16:27Wait. Why didn't I think of this sooner?
01:16:31Divorce or not, I'm still Ivy's dad.
01:16:34Hello. Some of you may have heard of Iris Aster, the new CEO of the Astor Dominion.
01:16:50I'm her ex-husband.
01:16:55Miss Aster, you need to see this.
01:16:58What?
01:16:58It's her ex-husband. Live, spreading rumors about you.
01:17:02We're married for three years. But in the end, she and her billionaire father, Alec Aster,
01:17:10kicked me out just because I wasn't rich enough. And the worst part is, they've taken our daughter, Ivy.
01:17:17This is outrageous. I cut Dorian some slack because he's Ivy's father and this is how he repays me?
01:17:22By slandering me online?
01:17:24It's starting fast. Miss Aster, people are calling for a boycott.
01:17:28And now our company's stock just dropped by eight percent.
01:17:40I never thought it'd end up like this. Iris and her father, they've used their power to ruin my life.
01:17:46They took my daughter away before I even got to hold her. And now they're forcing me to pay hundreds of
01:17:53millions in debt I can't afford. They even had my mom thrown in prison. I'm not doing this to hurt anybody.
01:18:01I just want to see my little girl again. I don't have any power. I don't have money.
01:18:05All I can do is speak the truth and hope somebody out there hears me. Please, help me get my daughter back.
01:18:15Miss Aster, the Fords are furious. They're demanding you to fix this immediately.
01:18:20What the hell do you want?
01:18:27What the hell do you want?
01:18:28Come on, Iris. We were married for three years. Don't act like I'm some stranger now.
01:18:34I know you still care. I just, uh, I don't want Ivy growing up without her dad, all right?
01:18:38I promise. This time, I'll do whatever you say. I won't listen to anyone else.
01:18:43Dorian, I cut you some slack and this is how you repay me?
01:18:45This isn't a threat, Iris. I'm doing this because I love you.
01:18:48If you're willing to take me back, marry me again, then I'll take the videos down.
01:18:52Shut down all the rumors. I swear, your stock won't drop another cent.
01:18:57Wow. You know, you just burned the last bit of mercy that I had left for you.
01:19:02Fine. I will see you in court. I'm going to make sure the entire world knows
01:19:07exactly who you are.
01:19:11Ungrateful bitch. I'm still Ivy's biological father.
01:19:17You had your chance, Iris. Now, I'm going to destroy you.
01:19:23Eric, I need you to go get a lawyer. I'm going to be suing Dorian
01:19:26for defamation and for federal securities laws.
01:19:28A disaster. You will win in court, no doubt. The damage to your reputation,
01:19:33I don't think it can be undone.
01:19:34Wait. What if we take him on one of those reality courtroom shows?
01:19:40We lay it all out there for the whole country to see.
01:19:42We'll set the record straight.
01:19:44I like that idea. And if we're going to do this, we're going to make sure we do it so the whole world
01:19:48sees exactly who he is. And we are not going to hold back.
01:19:59Plaintiff Dorian Bates, you are suing Iris Aster for deprivation of custody of your daughter Ivy Aster.
01:20:05You want to modify the custody agreement. Is that correct, sir?
01:20:08Yes, your honor. She took my daughter away on the basis of having a wealthier family. And now,
01:20:14she's forcing me to pay back a hundred million dollars in debt.
01:20:21Order in the court. This is not a talk show.
01:20:24Defendant, do you have any evidence to counter his claims?
01:20:28Thank you, your honor. Mr. Bates is lying. I have here the divorce agreement that he forced me to
01:20:35sign the day that I gave birth. He left me in Ivy. I believe that a father who files for divorce the
01:20:41same day that their daughter enters this world does not deserve any custody. I believe that a
01:20:47father who files for divorce the same day that their daughter enters this world does not deserve
01:20:52any custody. Only because she lied to me first, your honor. She hid her real identity and pretended
01:20:58to be from a poor family. If I'd known she was the heiress to the wealthiest family in the world,
01:21:02I never would have left. Sir, a saying is perfectly fine to divorce your wife if she's poor.
01:21:08No, no, no. Your honor, that's, that's not what I'm saying. As for the debt, Ms. Aster,
01:21:14can you provide any evidence in your defense? Yes, your honor. My father brought gifts for my
01:21:19daughter the day that I gave birth to her worth over a hundred million dollars. As you can see here,
01:21:26my ex-husband and his mother, they destroyed absolutely everything. Show them what it means to
01:21:32fuck with the Bates family. I simply want compensation in a fair and legal manner.
01:21:38Wow, this guy's shameless. He asked for a divorce the day his wife gave birth,
01:21:43trashed all his daughter's gifts, and now he has the audacity to blame her for causing all this mess?
01:21:48The way they treated her, it's a miracle she didn't lose the baby. Honestly,
01:21:52the Aster heiress is smart not to let him have custody. He's not a father,
01:21:55he's a selfish leech who only cares about money. He's not a father, he's a selfish leech who only
01:22:03cares about money. What the hell do you two know? This is clearly all her fault. If she told me her
01:22:08real identity earlier, none of this would have happened. I tried to tell you at the hospital,
01:22:12but you didn't listen and suddenly this is my fault now. I, you're- Warner, Mr. Bates,
01:22:19I've heard more than enough to back the dependents' claims. If all you've got are excuses and attitude,
01:22:25I'm ready to make my ruling. Your Honor, please, I'm still Ivy's biological father.
01:22:29Doesn't her opinion matter? Just trust her. Let's see. She loves me more than anyone.
01:22:43Biological dad or not, she's scared out of her mind. That guy's just a money-hungry leech.
01:22:49You're okay sweetheart. Looks like the future heiress's favorite person is still her mommy.
01:23:07I'm in favor of giving full custody to the mother. A man who uses his own daughter as a pawn for money
01:23:13shouldn't even be a father. I support Miss Astor.
01:23:18We support Miss Astor. We support Miss Astor. We support Miss Astor.
01:23:24Order. I'll now announce the verdict. Full custody will go to...
01:23:30Full custody will go to the defendant, Miss Iris Astor.
01:23:42What? No, this is rigged. She paid you all off. I want an appeal. Either give me my daughter or pay me alimony.
01:23:49That's illegal. Did you forget Dorian? You were the one that forced me to sign the divorce papers.
01:24:03You clearly stated that you wanted nothing to do with my assets or my debt. Any fortune you pushed away is on you.
01:24:10No, that can't be. It can't be like this.
01:24:15I'm refiling for divorce. You can file for whatever you want, Dorian, but I recommend getting a lawyer.
01:24:21I'm suing you for defamation and for violating federal securities loss.
01:24:26Thanks to you, the Astro Dominion has lost over 10 billion in market value, which you will pay off in prison.
01:24:32Iris, my baby, please, don't do this. It would be heartless to let our daughter grow up without her father.
01:24:37A greedy, selfish father would ruin our daughter. She'd be better off with one. Right, Dorian?
01:24:47That baby would end up just like its mom. Another greedy, lying con artist. Better to just not have it in the first place.
01:24:59Everything's going to be different now, Ivy. Mommy got us a brand new start.
