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