00:00
Where's Dorian?
00:02
Maybe he's coming any second now.
00:05
What kind of husband disappears in a moment like this?
00:07
He'll be here soon.
00:09
He's going to get his mom.
00:11
Seriously, thank you, Anita.
00:13
For being here.
00:15
I'm your best friend.
00:17
I wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:21
I'm gonna go grab the doctor.
00:30
Chairman Astor, this gift just came in for you.
00:37
The CEO of Cartelier is a custom cheetah brooch.
00:42
It's the purest ruby on the planet.
00:45
Not bad.
00:58
Dad?
01:00
I'm about to have the baby.
01:02
What?
01:04
Virus!
01:06
What?
01:08
Are you really walking out on your family?
01:11
Dad!
01:12
You were wrong about Dorian, okay?
01:15
He doesn't care about money!
01:17
He loves me!
01:19
And I choose him!
01:21
If you walk through that gate, you are no longer my daughter.
01:27
And you'll have nothing to do with the Aster name.
01:29
Ever again!
01:35
Even if you never call me your daughter again, I'm still your dad.
01:42
And I love your dad.
01:44
I always will.
01:45
But I choose him because our love is real, dad.
01:50
And I'm gonna prove it to you.
01:53
Congratulations, sir.
02:09
You're gonna be your grandfather.
02:10
Dorian still rubs me the wrong way.
02:17
He barely looks like he could take care of a goldfish, let alone a family.
02:21
Still, Iris chose him.
02:25
And now they're about to have a baby.
02:28
Maybe it's time I gave the guy a chance.
02:32
Get the finest gifts money can buy.
02:34
I want my grandchild to enter the world like royalty.
02:37
I guess I'll finally see if Dorian's truly worthy of Iris.
02:45
If not, he'll have me to answer to.
02:49
Mr. Holland, Mr. Holland, what's wrong?
03:09
What happened?
03:10
You sounded like you were having a heart attack.
03:11
Hurry, I need to get the Baltimore Tiara from the vault.
03:14
I need it delivered to Miss Astor ASAP.
03:17
You're giving that away?
03:18
I just got word that Miss Astor, the richest heiress on earth, is having a baby today.
03:23
We must congratulate it with a most spectacular gift.
03:26
If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Astor Dominion.
03:30
We're talking billions, Jessica.
03:32
Billions.
03:33
Now go.
03:34
Run.
03:35
Now.
03:41
A private hospital?
03:53
Doesn't it cost like two grand a night just to stay here?
03:56
She's burning through your money like it grows on trees.
04:00
Mom, please don't get worked up.
04:02
The doctor said Iris has placenta previa.
04:04
It's serious.
04:05
There's a real risk of bleeding.
04:07
Oh, Dorian.
04:09
Your wife's just being dramatic.
04:11
And who does she think she is?
04:13
Some royal heiress or something?
04:15
This is why we're bleeding money.
04:17
If you let her stay in a fancy hospital like this today, tomorrow, she's going to want to live in Nanny.
04:24
And then what?
04:25
A private chef?
04:27
A butler?
04:28
What do I do, Mom?
04:30
You haven't paid the hospital bill yet, right?
04:32
No, not yet.
04:34
Good.
04:34
When we get inside, stay quiet and follow my lead.
04:39
Okay, Mom.
04:40
Just remember, no other woman will ever love you as much as Mommy does.
04:46
Oh, my precious baby.
04:50
Iris, placenta previa is serious.
04:54
You need to rest and take it easy.
04:56
We've got you covered around the clock.
04:57
We'll do everything we can to keep you and your little ones safe.
05:06
Mommy and Daddy are so excited to meet me.
05:09
You are going to be the happiest baby in the entire planet, I promise.
05:18
Tessa, we're in your mirror.
05:20
Look at this room.
05:27
This isn't a hospital.
05:30
She's treating labor like it's a spa retreat.
05:33
Do you know that my friend's daughter-in-laws gave birth at local clinics and it only cost three grand total.
05:42
But your wife is spending two grand a night.
05:48
I don't know, Mom.
05:48
I think she's just trying to do what's best for the baby.
05:51
Oh, Dorian.
05:54
Don't be stupid.
05:56
This has nothing to do with the baby.
05:59
She's flaunting.
05:59
She just wants to tell her friends that she gave birth in some luxury suite.
06:05
I warned you.
06:06
She is not as sweet as she seems.
06:10
If you keep letting her burn through your money like this,
06:14
one day you're going to wake up with nothing left.
06:19
Then what do I do?
06:21
Don't worry, my sweet boy.
06:24
I'm going to handle everything, okay?
06:25
Okay.
06:27
Let's go.
06:29
Tessa, Dorian.
06:31
What were you guys talking about out there?
06:32
Oh, actually, um, the doctor said the bill was due.
06:35
Do you think you could take care of that?
06:38
Iris, do you have any idea what all this costs?
06:42
A room like this runs 50, 60 grand.
06:46
Dorian busts his ass every day to support this family.
06:50
Stop blowing through his savings and leave this hospital immediately.
06:56
What? Leave the hospital?
06:57
A good wife doesn't rack up mountains of debt before the baby's even born.
07:03
Could you just think about Dorian for once?
07:09
Tessa, I love him.
07:11
I'm not wasting anyone's money.
07:14
I chose this hospital because I had placentia previa.
07:17
I could bleed out.
07:18
And it's the only hospital that is equipped for that kind of emergency.
07:21
I'm not here for comfort.
07:23
I'm here to protect the baby and make sure that they're safe.
07:28
Dorian, I know how hard you work.
07:32
God.
07:32
Just let me stay one night and just, just to make sure the baby is stable and then we can transfer, I promise.
07:39
Son, don't fall for that.
07:42
We don't even know if the baby's coming tonight.
07:45
If she drags this out, it's going to be thousands more down the drain.
07:49
Tessa, this is between my husband and I.
07:52
Please just give us a moment.
07:53
I'm his mother.
07:55
Dorian's opinion is my opinion.
07:57
Now come on.
07:58
We are leaving this hospital.
08:04
Dorian.
08:06
Iris, let's just go to a local clinic.
08:10
Raising a kid is expensive.
08:12
We need to save where we can.
08:13
That's right.
08:14
We're not the bad guys here.
08:16
Tons of women give birth at local hospitals.
08:19
But you are a greedy little leech.
08:23
And I'm not letting you bleed my son dry.
08:26
What do you think he is?
08:28
Your personal ATM?
08:30
I'm not trying to waste anyone's money.
08:32
I have a low-lying placenta.
08:34
And if something goes wrong, the baby could die.
08:38
Don't go soft on her.
08:40
Let her play you.
08:42
Every pregnant woman has complications.
08:44
Just because it's risky doesn't mean it's going to happen.
08:47
If you cave now, she will bleed you dry for the rest of your life.
08:52
You're right, Mom.
08:54
Thanks for always having my back.
08:56
Mm-hmm.
08:57
I'm here for you.
08:59
Unlike certain people, I will never let someone make a fool of you.
09:06
Iris, if you want to stay in this hospital, fine.
09:09
But you're going to pay for it yourself.
09:12
I'm not letting a greedy little wife like you waste one more cent of my son's money.
09:22
Something's wrong with me.
09:23
You call an entrepreneur.
09:25
No.
09:25
Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
09:31
I'll see Iris first.
09:58
You wait here.
10:02
Do not take one more step until she agrees to pay for it herself.
10:07
Dorian, what happened to you?
10:10
Okay.
10:11
I don't know how to pay for it.
10:13
Kai, could you settle the bill with us, please?
10:22
See?
10:23
She had the cash all along.
10:26
Women like her always pretend that they're broke until it's time to spend your money.
10:32
If she doesn't feel the pressure now, she's never going to know what it takes to keep a family afloat.
10:38
You're right, Mom.
10:39
You always are.
10:40
You really are the only person that's truly looking out for me.
10:43
That's right.
10:44
My precious baby boy.
10:47
I'm sorry, ma'am.
10:49
Your card was declined.
10:50
You're short about $20,000.
10:53
If you can't pay, we have to discharge you.
10:56
This is everything I have left.
11:03
Is she really broke?
11:05
Doesn't make any sense.
11:07
With her three jobs, she should have saved at least $20,000.
11:10
Yeah, well, that's because I cover all the household bills.
11:13
And ever since I got pregnant, everything has been going to prenatal stuff.
11:16
Vitamins, supplements, hospital visits.
11:18
I mean, it all adds up to Dorian.
11:20
What on earth has she been through these past three years?
11:25
Brian, can you just...
11:27
Please, just consider it alone.
11:29
Just...
11:30
I swear, I'll pay you back.
11:32
Absolutely not.
11:34
Don't fall for this.
11:36
Every wife stashes emergency cash.
11:40
Did you see how she pulled that card out like it was nothing?
11:43
Do you think it's her only one?
11:44
She's still hiding money.
11:47
I know she is.
11:50
Dorian, please.
11:51
Please just help me pay the 20 grand.
11:53
I swear, I'll pay you back.
11:56
Don't fall for her act.
11:58
I know what you're playing at.
12:00
You're trying to squeeze money out of Dorian.
12:03
And then you're just going to run away without paying a cent.
12:07
How could you say that?
12:11
Okay.
12:14
Okay, Dorian.
12:16
I think something's going to happen with the baby.
12:18
The baby's in trouble.
12:19
You're not fooling anyone.
12:22
If you're really so broke.
12:24
Why are you insisting on staying at such a luxury hospital?
12:28
You've already drained him dry.
12:31
What more do you want from him?
12:33
Dorian.
12:34
Dorian, please.
12:35
I'm begging you.
12:36
Please just say something.
12:38
Don't fall for her drama.
12:40
You have two choices.
12:41
Either we can transfer her to a cheaper hospital, or she can pay for everything herself.
12:46
And if she doesn't want to do either, then we don't want the baby anyway.
12:53
Okay.
12:55
I'll listen to you, Mom.
12:56
Dorian, I gave up my family to be with you.
12:59
And when you started your business, I supported you.
13:02
I gave you everything that I have.
13:06
I mean, I paid for the mortgage and the car payments.
13:08
I have nothing left.
13:10
Please save us the sob story.
13:14
You ruined your own ties with your family.
13:16
Don't blame Dorian for that.
13:18
If you want to stay here, then fine.
13:21
Pay for it yourself.
13:22
But the Bates family is not paying a single cent.
13:30
It hurts.
13:32
Please, can I just...
13:34
Can I just see a doctor of hers?
13:35
Oh my God, Iris.
13:37
Stop acting like the victim.
13:39
Now it all makes sense.
13:40
You stayed here to show off.
13:42
When did you become so shallow?
13:45
You've become shallow.
13:47
Well, aren't you?
13:48
If you were really worried about the baby,
13:51
why wouldn't you take out a loan?
13:54
This is 2025.
13:56
There's apps for that.
13:57
You want me to take out a highly predatory,
14:01
a high-interest loan to give birth.
14:03
Who's going to be your grandchild?
14:05
I mean, how could you be so heartless?
14:07
Are you really guilt-tripping me right now?
14:11
You're the one refusing to pay for your own baby.
14:14
God, in my day, we didn't need luxury hospitals to give birth.
14:18
We gave birth at home for free.
14:22
I don't know what my son saw in a gold digger like you.
14:26
This is ridiculous.
14:27
I didn't marry Dorian for the money.
14:30
Stop lying!
14:31
If you weren't after our money,
14:35
why haven't you taken out the loan yet?
14:38
Quit stalling!
14:42
That hurts!
14:45
Bastards!
14:45
How dare you treat my precious daughter like this!
