00:00:00Dr. Eleanor Grace Whitmore is awarded with the Medal for Merit, the first woman to ever receive this honor for her wartime breakthroughs in physics, radar, and energy systems. Her contributions have saved countless American lives.
00:00:24Congratulations, Mom.
00:00:26Thank you, Lex.
00:00:30Look! The light's falling!
00:00:36Lexi, watch out!
00:00:40Mom!
00:00:48What's going on?
00:00:50Didn't I just... die?
00:00:53That's Eleanor Hawthorne, right? The child Mr. Hawthorne had with his ex-wife?
00:00:57Hawthorne? That's my maiden name.
00:00:59She was in the countryside for 18 years. I heard Julie came back after her mother passed.
00:01:06Is that... me?
00:01:09I woke up in another girl's body?
00:01:10Oh, sis! Try this. It's really good.
00:01:19Oops. My hand slipped.
00:01:22You wouldn't like this high-end wine anyway. You know, being a country bumpkin and all.
00:01:26What do you know? My hand slipped too.
00:01:39What do you know? My hand slipped too.
00:01:42What do you know? My hand slipped too.
00:01:43Are you out of your mind?
00:01:44I hope you like the taste. Of your own medicine, that is.
00:01:47No manners at all.
00:01:48You should have left her in the country where she belonged.
00:01:50She threw her drink at me.
00:01:51And you both stayed silent.
00:01:53But when I stand up for myself, I'm the problem?
00:01:55It's not your idea of manners.
00:01:59She's acting like a completely different person.
00:02:01Look. It's Mr. Sebastian Whitmore.
00:02:08The Whitmore group's youngest CEO of us.
00:02:11What a presence.
00:02:14He looks so much alike.
00:02:18I love Jonathan endlessly.
00:02:20In 1944, he sacrificed fighting in World War II.
00:02:23I never thought I'd see that face again.
00:02:25He's a Whitmore too.
00:02:26Could he really be a descendant of mine?
00:02:28What is your relationship to Lexi?
00:02:30I mean, Alexander Whitmore?
00:02:32God.
00:02:33She just called the chairman of the board Lexi?
00:02:34Has she lost her mind?
00:02:36Mr. Whitmore, please forgive her.
00:02:37My daughter grew up in the country and clearly does not have any manners.
00:02:41How dare you throw around Mr. Whitmore's grandfather's name?
00:02:44Apologize. Now.
00:02:45Lexi is my son.
00:02:47Which means this young man is my great grandson.
00:02:52Is Alexander still alive?
00:02:53Watch your tongue.
00:02:55How dare you just ask Mr. Whitmore a question like that?
00:02:57My grandfather's alive and well, of course.
00:03:00Mr. Hawthorne.
00:03:01Please make sure your daughter behaves responsibly.
00:03:03Yes, absolutely.
00:03:05Thank heavens.
00:03:06My son is still alive.
00:03:07No manners?
00:03:08No respect?
00:03:09Have I taught you nothing?
00:03:12I had...
00:03:14this thing.
00:03:15This body...
00:03:21still feels so foreign.
00:03:25There's something in her memory.
00:03:26A phone.
00:03:27It knows everything.
00:03:31Alexander Whitmore.
00:03:33Alexander Whitmore, chairman of Whitmore Group, is receiving long-term treatment in Switzerland.
00:03:36Lexi.
00:03:38I saw it.
00:03:39Even the birthmark is in the same spot.
00:03:41He's my Lexi.
00:03:42How'd you get so bald so fast?
00:03:49Why are you so slow?
00:03:50Change your clothes.
00:03:51First aid the new school.
00:03:52Don't embarrass us again.
00:03:53Relax, Dad.
00:03:54She grew up on a farm.
00:03:55She's probably slow in more ways than one.
00:03:57Wait.
00:03:58Were you on the Beverly Hillbillies?
00:04:00Yesterday, we were finally invited to the Whitmore family.
00:04:02Ruined it!
00:04:03Who knows what they're gonna try to do to us now.
00:04:05The Whitmore family has integrity.
00:04:06They don't strike back over a minor select.
00:04:08Get out.
00:04:11I'm not done with you yet!
00:04:13Leave.
00:04:14I need to change.
00:04:19Did you see her eyes?
00:04:20Terrifying.
00:04:21She frightened me too.
00:04:22That look.
00:04:23Like she'd already lived an entire lifetime.
00:04:26What is wrong with her?
00:04:29Can you believe it?
00:04:31My dad actually paid to get that dumb country girl into our school.
00:04:34Wow.
00:04:35Your dad's really generous.
00:04:36Yeah, whatever.
00:04:37Let's spice up your first day a little.
00:04:38Oh, Eleanor.
00:04:39The principal is looking for you.
00:04:40His office is right there.
00:04:52In my day, school pranks were a little less juvenile.
00:05:00Hi.
00:05:01Hey!
00:05:05Today has ended.
00:05:09Look what wandered in.
00:05:10Wrong hallway, sweetheart?
00:05:11Or, maybe she's just curious.
00:05:15Is she really breathing right now?
00:05:17Drop the axe, they always buy different property.
00:05:18I always buy you from a property.
00:05:23Pick it up.
00:05:25Do you think me? It's with you.
00:05:27I said pick it up.
00:05:29And what if I don't?
00:05:38Basic combat training. Courtesy of the army.
00:05:44Now will you pick it up?
00:05:48I just got taken down by a girl?
00:05:52The first person to get Julian's ass is by a chick?
00:05:55You better teach your lesson, Julian!
00:06:03Don't ever cross me again.
00:06:05Class, calm down. I'd like you to meet the new transfer students, Miss Eleanor Hawthorne.
00:06:20It's her?
00:06:21Eleanor, why don't you take a seat behind Julian.
00:06:23How old are you? Five?
00:06:37Alexander Whitmore returns to the US.
00:06:39Sorry, I need to step out a moment. Family emergency.
00:06:41Off to Scarecrow Building 101? Maybe a ticket class or something?
00:06:45Yes. You should come. Every class needs a cautionary tale.
00:06:52Rosewood Manor. The house we bought after getting married.
00:06:55Never imagined it last generations.
00:06:57And my son. He's here. There should still be a hidden entrance.
00:07:00Excuse me. Who are you? How did you get in here?
00:07:07How did you get in here?
00:07:11How did you get in here?
00:07:12From the back gate.
00:07:13You're the young lady from the Hawthorne family.
00:07:15I heard your grandfather had the turn. So I came to pay my respects.
00:07:18I trust you will allow that, Mr. Whitmore.
00:07:21Unfortunately, this is not a good time. I'm going to ask you to leave.
00:07:25If I'm not mistaken, the code to the Whitmore Vault right now should be 649-Omega-71-CB-30-J.
00:07:32That code. Only my grandfather and I know it. It changes every month.
00:07:36Who are you?
00:07:37Once I see Alexander, you'll understand.
00:07:39So, are you going to take me to him now?
00:07:41Right this way, Miss Hawthorne.
00:07:44The code was mine. I just had to offset the dates.
00:07:46Simple to crack, if you know how.
00:07:47How does she know the code? Did my grandfather tell her?
00:07:59Mama, you're being robbed in your bluebie!
00:08:02Miss Hawthorne.
00:08:04Sorry.
00:08:08Lexi, I'm coming.
00:08:13I just wanna say I'm sorry.
00:08:16Give forgiveness that's overdue.
00:08:18Mama's here.
00:08:19You should know I'll always be there.
00:08:20Take this heart as if I owe you.
00:08:23Don't know how and don't know when.
00:08:26Wish that I could show.
00:08:29All the ways I love you.
00:08:30Mama's here.
00:08:31Before I know.
00:08:34I just wanna say I'm sorry.
00:08:36Give forgiveness that's overdue.
00:08:38You should know I'll always be there.
00:08:40You should know I'll always be there.
00:08:41You should know I'll always be there.
00:08:42This heart is broken on you.
00:08:43Don't know how and don't know when.
00:08:44But I hope I see it again.
00:08:46Lexi?
00:08:47Why is she calling my grandfather then?
00:08:49I'm here now.
00:08:50You need to worry.
00:08:51We checked Eleanor Hawthorne.
00:08:57No Whitmore connection.
00:08:58The Hawthorne's moved here in the 80s.
00:08:59Mother's York farming family.
00:09:01That's all.
00:09:03And who is she really?
00:09:04We're not sure, but she...
00:09:06I'll return at this hour each day.
00:09:10Give me the number.
00:09:10I'll need updates.
00:09:12Mr. Hawthorne's number isn't just handed to anyone.
00:09:14Before...
00:09:14Much obliged, Sebi.
00:09:19I'll return on the morrow.
00:09:20I mean, tomorrow.
00:09:23On the morrow?
00:09:24She's calling me Sebi?
00:09:25Kind of weird hearing that from some teenager.
00:09:45Something wrong, Miss Perfect.
00:09:47All you do is waste time.
00:09:48And your father's money on flashy watches.
00:09:51You have no idea what the hell you're talking about.
00:09:53Wait, isn't he just a broke nobody?
00:09:55Didn't your parents ever teach you manners?
00:09:57Shut up.
00:09:57I don't have parents.
00:09:59This is your final warning.
00:10:00Watch out.
00:10:03Consider this your warning.
00:10:04Whatever.
00:10:14You're not my time.
00:10:14I have the game to win.
00:10:23I'll be back tomorrow.
00:10:24I will soon.
00:10:25I'll soon.
00:10:27Miss Elmer, shall I have the driver take you home?
00:10:29No.
00:10:30Just drop me off at the library.
00:10:36Why do I just do what she says?
00:10:38It's like she actually runs the house.
00:10:40What the hell?
00:10:41What's she doing here?
00:10:42She can't follow me all this way, right?
00:10:44Unless she must be really into me.
00:10:47Master Julian, what's so funny?
00:10:49Really?
00:10:49Nothing.
00:10:49Why are you never home anymore?
00:10:59I've been at the library, doing some research.
00:11:02You're wasting your time there.
00:11:03Can you even read?
00:11:05I certainly can.
00:11:06Not that you had anything to do with that.
00:11:11So, how's your super idle prep coming along, sweetie?
00:11:14Don't get me started.
00:11:15The open call theme is reunion.
00:11:17It's kind of tricky.
00:11:18Not that tricky.
00:11:19Remember, Whitmore Group sponsors the show.
00:11:21Their chairman, Alexander Whitmore, was born during World War II.
00:11:23I heard he has a soft spot for the old songs of that era.
00:11:26Exactly.
00:11:26The producers always choose a theme that pleases him.
00:11:28So you better deliver, darling.
00:11:31Exie used to fall asleep to those songs when I sang them.
00:11:34He must be longing to hear his mother's voice again.
00:11:36How do I sign up?
00:11:39I'd like to audition, too.
00:11:43You have got to be kidding me!
00:11:45Madison here has been training ever since grade school.
00:11:46Singing, dancing, acting lessons.
00:11:49She has real credits.
00:11:50And you?
00:11:51Nothing.
00:11:52Yeah.
00:11:53Dream on.
00:11:54This competition is for girls who have real talent.
00:11:56Let's give her a chance.
00:11:57I'll send you the sign-up link.
00:11:58Why are you even helping her?
00:12:04Why are you even helping her?
00:12:05Let her audition.
00:12:07She'll only make you shine brighter.
00:12:08When they see how bad she is, they'll be running to hand you the award.
00:12:11You're right.
00:12:11I know.
00:12:15Wait!
00:12:16You really think Eleanor has a crush on you?
00:12:17Absolutely.
00:12:18She's totally intimate.
00:12:18Why else would she keep provoking me?
00:12:20She follows me from home from school.
00:12:21It's obvious.
00:12:23She wants my attention.
00:12:24I mean, you've got a point.
00:12:26No wonder you're the king of this school.
00:12:28Well, I'm going to give her what she wants, make her seem interested, make her fall ahead
00:12:31over heels for me, and then I'm going to reject her and throw everyone, and watch her crash.
00:12:34Bro, that's genius, man!
00:12:36I bet you'll be in tears the moment you do it!
00:12:37Surprise, Miss Perfect.
00:12:54I thought you deserved something a little sweet.
00:12:57Keep it.
00:12:58I don't take candy from children.
00:13:00Sorry, today I'm officially pursuing you.
00:13:03What, did you get a concussion or something when I kicked your ass?
00:13:06Played hard to get, huh?
00:13:08Figures.
00:13:09Stop pretending.
00:13:09I know you had a crush on me since you saw me.
00:13:13Need help?
00:13:28What the hell was that?
00:13:29A wake-up call.
00:13:29I thought I could knock some sense into you.
00:13:32Bro, I don't think she actually likes you.
00:13:33Shut it.
00:13:34She's just flustered.
00:13:35That's all.
00:13:35She can't help me with revealing her little secret.
00:13:40Sebi?
00:13:41I'm back.
00:13:42How do you know Sebi?
00:13:45How do you know my brother's private number?
00:13:46Nobody has that.
00:13:47Nobody.
00:13:48Sebastian Whitmore is your brother.
00:13:49You are Whitmore, too.
00:13:50How do you know him?
00:13:52He told me to keep a little profile at the school.
00:13:53So if you say a word, you regret it.
00:13:55This hot-headed, thick-skilled boy is my great-grandson?
00:13:57The universe must be mocking me.
00:14:00What's that face for?
00:14:01So, Miss Perfect, are you ready to admit it?
00:14:04You like me.
00:14:08Are you ready to admit it?
00:14:09You like me.
00:14:11Back off.
00:14:11Just looking at you gives me a headache.
00:14:14You're freaking weirdo.
00:14:15I feel like she caught up another century or something.
00:14:17So, the object hits the ground at T equals two seconds.
00:14:20Look who thinks she's smart enough for AP.
00:14:22Eleanor would fail regular physics and T equals two seconds.
00:14:24Quiet down.
00:14:25I know this one's a little advanced, so don't be discouraged if you don't fully comprehend it just yet.
00:14:29Mr. Carter, I think there's a mistake in your equation.
00:14:33I'm sorry, are you questioning my answer, Miss Hawthorne?
00:14:34T equals zero.
00:14:43It's the release point.
00:14:45The math speaks for itself.
00:14:48Are you sure about this, Miss Hawthorne?
00:14:50Or are you just trying to stir up trouble?
00:14:52Here we go, just taking your own grade.
00:15:02Because you're absolutely right.
00:15:04This is brilliant.
00:15:05I never would have thought to solve it this way.
00:15:07You're a genius, young lady.
00:15:08I'll have to recommend you for the National Science Competition next month.
00:15:11Thank you, sir.
00:15:11It would be an honor to accept such an opportunity.
00:15:15Man, she's incredible.
00:15:17Think you can handle her?
00:15:19Easy.
00:15:22Miss, perfect.
00:15:23Just wait until I ask you out and then turn you down.
00:15:25Let's see if you're still smiling then.
00:15:29Guess what?
00:15:30Julian's planning some huge love confession.
00:15:31You've rejected him like a dozen times.
00:15:33Why won't he just give up?
00:15:33I mean, you were last year's prom queen.
00:15:35Julian is hot.
00:15:36I'll give him that.
00:15:36But no money, no status.
00:15:38Please, he's nothing.
00:15:48Julian, I told you.
00:15:54Eleanor, I have to ask you a question.
00:15:56Wait, since when is Julian chasing her?
00:16:01Well, two broke kids.
00:16:02I guess they do make a good match.
00:16:09I got these.
00:16:11Specifically for you.
00:16:12So, what do you say?
00:16:14Want to be my girlfriend?
00:16:17Make it official!
00:16:18Yeah, no one can ever resist Julian!
00:16:19How dare you!
00:16:23How dare you!
00:16:24You disgrace!
00:16:32Is he in?
00:16:35Shut up, everybody!
00:16:36Shut the hell up!
00:16:38Oh my god!
00:16:39This is a limited edition!
00:16:41Worth millions!
00:16:41No way!
00:16:42Julian could never afford this.
00:16:44It's gotta be fake.
00:16:44Do you like your clips?
00:16:51Yeah.
00:16:52Did you say thank you?
00:16:53Of course.
00:16:54You're beautiful.
00:16:58Daddy, who's that lady?
00:17:02Daddy, who's that lady?
00:17:05Sweetheart, don't call Sebastian Daddy like that.
00:17:07It's fine.
00:17:07She likes it later.
00:17:11Hi.
00:17:12I'm Claudia.
00:17:13Sebastian's secretary.
00:17:14I was bringing my daughter Daisy here to visit Mr. Alexander.
00:17:21Thomas, have dinner prepared for me?
00:17:22Certainly, miss.
00:17:24Where did this girl come from?
00:17:26Imagine like she owns the place.
00:17:29Who's that?
00:17:30Who exactly is she?
00:17:31Um, that's Eleanor Hawthorne.
00:17:33She's just a guest visiting my grandfather.
00:17:34Oh.
00:17:36Daisy, why don't you go get Miss Hawthorne a glass of water?
00:17:39Thank you, sweetie.
00:17:41She's so sweet.
00:17:44Miss Hawthorne.
00:17:48Here.
00:17:56Oops, sorry.
00:17:57I'll forgive you this once.
00:17:58But next time, the water will hit your mother's face.
00:18:01Daisy, Daisy, what happened?
00:18:10Mom, she yelled at me.
00:18:11She's so mean.
00:18:13It's okay.
00:18:13Daddy's here.
00:18:14Eddie, I'm scared.
00:18:16Miss Hawthorne?
00:18:17Why did you do that?
00:18:17I thought you had brains, Sebby.
00:18:19Turns out your judgment is worse than I imagined.
00:18:21What?
00:18:21If this is how you measure character, how can you manage a company or anything else?
00:18:25Get out.
00:18:26All of you.
00:18:29The patient needs his rest.
00:18:31You don't get to decide who stays here.
00:18:37Sebastian, you're just going to let that go?
00:18:40Leaving her alone in Mr. Whitmore's room is absolutely inappropriate.
00:18:43She's not going to cause any trouble.
00:18:45Um, she's...
00:18:46Well, it's hard to explain.
00:18:47Hard to explain?
00:18:48Don't tell me she's after Sebastian.
00:18:51It's just us again, darling.
00:18:57You've been waiting to hear Mommy sing?
00:19:01I'm entering Super Idol.
00:19:03I went to record the song I always sang to you.
00:19:09Orally, orally, made with golden hair.
00:19:15Sunshine came along with me and swallows in the air.
00:19:19Take my heart and take my ring.
00:19:23I give my all to thee.
00:19:26Take me for eternity, dearest orally.
00:19:32Oh, my God.
00:19:33Lexi!
00:19:34Can you hear me?
00:19:35Doctor!
00:19:35Someone get the doctor!
00:19:36He's moving!
00:19:36Mr. Whitmore could wake up any moment.
00:19:43Maybe tomorrow, maybe a month from now.
00:19:44We just don't know.
00:19:49Miss Hawthorne.
00:19:50Seth's busy.
00:19:51I can see you out.
00:19:52You think you can bully me?
00:19:54Let's see about that.
00:19:56I can manage.
00:19:57Help!
00:19:58He can't believe it!
00:19:59Mom!
00:19:59Daisy, somebody help!
00:20:01Somebody help!
00:20:02Daisy!
00:20:03Mom!
00:20:03Mom!
00:20:04Daisy!
00:20:05Is your right?
00:20:10I'm totally...
00:20:11I might die.
00:20:12I'm just saying Mom and Dad again!
00:20:13What's going on?
00:20:14She pushed me and she tried to drown me!
00:20:20She pushed me and she tried to drown me!
00:20:22I didn't push her.
00:20:23Miss Hawthorne, if Daisy's wrong, I'll apologize for her.
00:20:25But that little spill with the water, that was an accident.
00:20:27I didn't realize you could be this cool.
00:20:29Or that you could be this sensitive.
00:20:31I did no such thing.
00:20:32Sebi?
00:20:33Sebi?
00:20:33How dare she call him that?
00:20:35Miss Hawthorne.
00:20:37There's no excuse for endangering a child.
00:20:39From now on, stay away from the house!
00:20:40Your mind is much too narrow.
00:20:42If you can't even handle a situation like this,
00:20:44maybe the Whitmore Group's CEO should be selling the house.
00:20:48Unbelievable.
00:20:49Since we've been a teenage girl star running the Whitmore family business.
00:20:52Sir, it's your grandfather.
00:20:53He's awake!
00:20:57Grandpa, you're awake.
00:20:59Here, have some water.
00:21:02I remember someone saying orally to me while I was out.
00:21:09Is that true?
00:21:10That was Miss Eleanor Hawthorne, sir.
00:21:11She's been visiting lately.
00:21:12Hawthorne?
00:21:13Yes.
00:21:14Eleanor Hawthorne?
00:21:16What's her name?
00:21:16What?
00:21:17Where did she bring her here?
00:21:19She had to go, Grandma.
00:21:20She just overrun the little girl.
00:21:21Nonsense!
00:21:22Find her!
00:21:23Now!
00:21:24Now!
00:21:27Miss Hawthorne!
00:21:29Wait!
00:21:29Miss Hawthorne!
00:21:30Master Alexander's awake.
00:21:31He wants to see you.
00:21:37Master Alexander, Miss Hawthorne's here.
00:21:49She looks just like her.
00:21:52Mom's been gone for decades.
00:21:54It can't be.
00:21:56I see.
00:21:58How did you know that name?
00:22:00No one's ever called me that since my mother died.
00:22:02Because it's me, sweetheart.
00:22:04It's Mom.
00:22:07I must be confused.
00:22:10Please don't joke about this.
00:22:13Do you remember that little mutt?
00:22:15Piney?
00:22:17First night home, he peed all over your pants.
00:22:19You were so embarrassed.
00:22:21You made me swear I'd never toast him.
00:22:22How did you know that?
00:22:25Because I was there.
00:22:27I remember every second.
00:22:30When he died, you cried all day.
00:22:34You held him in your arms.
00:22:36You said,
00:22:37goodbyes always aren't this much.
00:22:40And I said, no.
00:22:41I would never let you feel that kind of pain again.
00:22:44But I lied because then I left you.
00:22:50God, Alex, you were just a kid.
00:22:53Scared and alone.
00:22:55I wasn't there to hold you.
00:22:56I told you that it wasn't your fault.
00:22:58I let you grow up without a mother.
00:23:00And I wasn't there for all the heartbreaks.
00:23:02I will never forgive myself.
00:23:05Mom.
00:23:06Alex, how did you grow up so fast?
00:23:10Mom.
00:23:10I'm so sorry, my love.
00:23:15I will never leave you again.
00:23:18Is this really the same Alexander went line up?
00:23:21Stone-faced, ruthless, commanding an empire?
00:23:27Grandpa, this whole thing is insane.
00:23:29You shut your mouth and you leave.
00:23:33How is it happening?
00:23:35Is this real?
00:23:37I thought I died too.
00:23:38I opened my eyes and it was 70 years later.
00:23:43I woke up in a girl's body.
00:23:45Her name is Eleanor Hawthorne.
00:23:48Same face.
00:23:49Same name.
00:23:50So that's the whole story, huh?
00:23:52Time travel, waking up in a brand new body.
00:23:54And you expect us to sit here and believe you, Mrs. Arthur.
00:23:56Don't you dare talk to her like that.
00:23:58This is your great-grandmother.
00:24:01God, this is the answer of my prayers.
00:24:05Can I get to see my mother again?
00:24:06There's nothing.
00:24:07No proof.
00:24:08Proof?
00:24:09You don't think I'd know my own mother?
00:24:12Sebi.
00:24:13Stubborn like you were as a kid.
00:24:15From what I can tell, Sebi's not that sharp.
00:24:18Trusting in with the Whitmore Empire, are you sure I can handle it?
00:24:21He's not the only Whitmore.
00:24:23I will gather all her grandkids and you can decide which one of them deserves to be doing the inheritance.
00:24:28Oh my god.
00:24:30He's still young.
00:24:31We'll guide him.
00:24:32Take it slow.
00:24:34Sebi, from now on you call me Gigi.
00:24:37Never seen a great-grandmother so happy.
00:24:40Well, fine.
00:24:40Calling a great-grandma isn't so bad.
00:24:42Gigi.
00:24:44Good boy.
00:24:47Wait.
00:24:47Wait.
00:24:51From now on, I'll be moving back into the Rosewood Manor.
00:24:54Have my own room prepared.
00:24:55Okay.
00:25:08What are you doing up so early?
00:25:09I couldn't sleep at all last night.
00:25:11I was wondering, could this just be a dream?
00:25:15It's not a dream.
00:25:16Mom's really here.
00:25:20I'm not going to school today.
00:25:23I'll spend the whole day with you.
00:25:25I hoped for so long to hold your head again.
00:25:31My body.
00:25:33I feel so weak.
00:25:34Mom.
00:25:36I'm scared.
00:25:37No tears.
00:25:38Just breathe.
00:25:40You have to look after yourself so you can live to a hundred.
00:25:43This way.
00:25:53Good morning, Master Alex.
00:25:54Miss Hawthorne.
00:25:55Here.
00:25:56This is your chair.
00:25:58Head of the table.
00:26:01Thomas.
00:26:02Sir.
00:26:02From now on, you will treat Miss Hawthorne exactly as you would treat me.
00:26:05Every detail.
00:26:06No exceptions.
00:26:06Uh, sir?
00:26:07If her orders and mine ever clash, you will listen to her.
00:26:11Got it?
00:26:12Yes, sir.
00:26:13Did I hear that right?
00:26:15Just who exactly is Miss Hawthorne?
00:26:16Here, let me pour you some milk.
00:26:22You're the one growing now.
00:26:23It's important to keep you healthy and strong.
00:26:26Here you go, Gigi.
00:26:32Have some soup.
00:26:33You're a good boy, sir.
00:26:35What on earth is going on here?
00:26:39Uh, Master Alex, young Master Julian's arrived.
00:26:41Ah, yes.
00:26:43There's one younger grandson you haven't met yet.
00:26:45He doesn't come around very often.
00:26:46I bought him a villa close by.
00:26:47He's a nice boy.
00:26:48You'll like him.
00:26:49Grandpa, I'm home.
00:26:54You've got to be kidding me.
00:26:55First he blew me off at school,
00:26:56and now you're sitting here in my house?
00:26:58What game are you playing, Eleanor?
00:26:58Wait, you two know each other?
00:27:00What classmates?
00:27:02So, Mr. Changer Bind,
00:27:03wait, you're running back to me.
00:27:08So, Mr. Changer Bind,
00:27:10wait, you're running back to me.
00:27:13Ow!
00:27:14What the hell, Grandpa?
00:27:15Did you just hit me?
00:27:15Yeah, I did.
00:27:17Why would you do that?
00:27:19Sorry.
00:27:20Thomas.
00:27:21Miss.
00:27:24Watch your mouth.
00:27:26This is your great-grandmother.
00:27:29Show some respect.
00:27:30Great-grandmother?
00:27:30What are you talking about?
00:27:32Can't get your mind around it, huh?
00:27:33Just answer this.
00:27:34Your dad's mom is grandma.
00:27:36Your grandpa's mom is...
00:27:38Seriously, is this preschool?
00:27:39Just answer.
00:27:40If your dad's mom is grandma,
00:27:41your grandpa's mom is...
00:27:42Your great-grandmother.
00:27:43That's right.
00:27:44Good boy.
00:27:44What the...
00:27:48You can't play a game with me like this.
00:27:51Hey, calm down, Jules.
00:27:54Hey, bro.
00:27:55How are you going to let this fraud
00:27:56clown around in our house
00:27:57speaking on great-grandmother's memory?
00:27:59Great-grandmother was the cornerstone
00:28:00of the Whitmore family.
00:28:00Half this fortune exists because of her.
00:28:02Grandpa, wait.
00:28:03I'm not done.
00:28:04I'm not done.
00:28:05Without her,
00:28:05Whitmore wouldn't even exist today.
00:28:07My mom-name, Eleanor,
00:28:07was given to me in her honor.
00:28:08It's very touching.
00:28:10But tell me,
00:28:10are you insulting me
00:28:11or praising me?
00:28:13Should I be angry?
00:28:14Gigi,
00:28:15I know this is a lot to take in,
00:28:16but Jules sacks out a lot.
00:28:18Don't let it upset you.
00:28:19What did you just call her?
00:28:20Gigi.
00:28:22Jules, she is our great-grandmother.
00:28:24Impossible!
00:28:24She's a fraud!
00:28:25You guys are brainwashed!
00:28:26Enough!
00:28:29Miss Eleanor Hawthorne is...
00:28:31my mother.
00:28:33Your great-grandmother.
00:28:35A remarkable woman.
00:28:36So you just buried her up
00:28:37from the grave and...
00:28:39Is that all that hurt?
00:28:39Not really.
00:28:40But Eleanor is
00:28:41the Whitmore matriarch.
00:28:43Half of our family's fortune
00:28:44traces back to her.
00:28:46From this moment on,
00:28:47you will respect her,
00:28:49obey her,
00:28:50protect her,
00:28:51and if you ever defy her again,
00:28:53I will personally throw you out.
00:28:55I have plenty of grandchildren.
00:28:57I'm not short on airs.
00:29:00I'm not short on airs.
00:29:05Jules,
00:29:06color Gigi from now on.
00:29:07All right, big girl.
00:29:07I'll trust you.
00:29:10Gigi?
00:29:11That's a good boy.
00:29:15Master Alex,
00:29:16I brought Miss Lucy.
00:29:17Lulu's home.
00:29:18Daddy?
00:29:21Auntie?
00:29:22Oh, no, sweetheart.
00:29:23That's not your auntie.
00:29:23That's...
00:29:24That's fine.
00:29:25You can call me Auntie, honey.
00:29:27Come here, Lulu.
00:29:28Of course.
00:29:30Lulu is Sebi's daughter.
00:29:31She's been away at boarding school
00:29:32all week.
00:29:33A poor kid.
00:29:34Her mother died
00:29:35in childbirth.
00:29:36Amniotic ambalism.
00:29:37Strange.
00:29:38I figured Sebi didn't have
00:29:39any children of his own,
00:29:40being he was so desperate
00:29:41to play daddy
00:29:41to someone else's kid.
00:29:45Gigi,
00:29:46I don't think you have
00:29:46the full story.
00:29:47Oh, really?
00:29:47Then tell me,
00:29:48why do you send little Lulu
00:29:49off to boarding school
00:29:49all week?
00:29:50Well, she needs her independence.
00:29:51She can't rely on me forever.
00:29:53Your seven-year-old
00:29:53needs her independence.
00:29:55What about your secretary's
00:29:56daughter, Daisy?
00:29:57Is she in boarding school, too?
00:29:58Well, Daisy doesn't have a father.
00:29:59She's very sensitive, I mean.
00:30:00If I send her to boarding school,
00:30:01I think she'd feel more insecure.
00:30:04Poor little Daisy.
00:30:05So, when's my big brother
00:30:06finally going to get married to Claudia
00:30:07to give Daisy a proper home?
00:30:08I like Daisy, too.
00:30:10Sweet, smart kid.
00:30:11Perhaps it's time
00:30:12to plan a wedding.
00:30:13Before you guys
00:30:14start planning a wedding,
00:30:15I highly suggest
00:30:17a joint appointment
00:30:18to the optometrist.
00:30:18to get your eyes checked.
00:30:22You're all completely blind
00:30:23to this situation.
00:30:26Master Alex,
00:30:27Miss Smith and Daisy are left.
00:30:28Speak of the devils.
00:30:30Daisy!
00:30:30Daddy!
00:30:31Sammy!
00:30:33Mr. Whitmore,
00:30:34how are you feeling?
00:30:35Feeling great.
00:30:36I'm so happy
00:30:36you're feeling better,
00:30:37great-grandpa.
00:30:38I'd be really sad
00:30:39if you got sick.
00:30:40Such a good girl, Daisy.
00:30:42Mom,
00:30:42I made these especially for you.
00:30:44Try them.
00:30:45I can do like them.
00:30:46What?
00:30:46Mr. Whitmore?
00:30:47A man of his stature
00:30:48serving Eleanor.
00:30:49Miss Hawthorne!
00:30:50Regarding yesterday,
00:30:51it was all misunderstanding.
00:30:52She fell in herself.
00:30:54I'm so sorry she lied.
00:30:55Daisy,
00:30:56why would you do that
00:30:57to Miss Eleanor?
00:30:58Why is he so protective
00:30:58of Miss Hawthorne?
00:31:00Grandpa's all right.
00:31:00Gives makeup things all the time.
00:31:01She's still little.
00:31:02She doesn't know better yet.
00:31:03Seb,
00:31:04cancel everything this afternoon.
00:31:05You're going to spend the day
00:31:06with Miss Hawthorne.
00:31:07Shopping, errands, the works.
00:31:09Wait,
00:31:09does Mr. Whitmore want
00:31:10Sebastian to marry Eleanor
00:31:11instead of me?
00:31:12But Daddy,
00:31:15you promised me
00:31:16you'd get those dolls today.
00:31:17The limited edition ones.
00:31:18The $25,000 set.
00:31:19Can we go this afternoon?
00:31:20Yeah, we'll see, Daisy.
00:31:21No.
00:31:22This afternoon
00:31:23has been spoken.
00:31:26Forget it, sweetheart.
00:31:27We'll go to the amusement park instead.
00:31:29No need to put Daddy Sebby
00:31:30on the spot.
00:31:31We'll get out of your way.
00:31:33Oh, wait, I'll drive.
00:31:35Mom,
00:31:36you were right.
00:31:37Daisy's always trying
00:31:38to outshine Lulu.
00:31:39That girl and her mother,
00:31:41they're not genuine.
00:31:41And Sebastian,
00:31:42he's too blind to see it.
00:31:44Here.
00:31:46Use this any way you want.
00:31:48It's unlimited.
00:31:49Are you kidding me, Grandpa?
00:31:51Hey, how about
00:31:51you slide me one of those cards
00:31:53and I can take Gigi out
00:31:54this afternoon, huh?
00:31:55What do you say?
00:31:56Dream on.
00:31:57What?
00:31:57Are you saying
00:31:58the $10,000 a week
00:31:59pocket money
00:31:59isn't enough for you?
00:32:00I mean,
00:32:00I spent $100,000
00:32:01on that necklace last month.
00:32:02Who's that was that?
00:32:03I'll keep this.
00:32:04And from now on, Jules,
00:32:05your allowance goes to me.
00:32:06What?
00:32:06No way.
00:32:09What?
00:32:09No way.
00:32:10Yes.
00:32:11And starting tomorrow,
00:32:12you will be looking
00:32:12after Eleanor at school.
00:32:14If she gets in a car,
00:32:15you will hold the door.
00:32:16If she sits,
00:32:17you will pull up a chair.
00:32:18If she joins the volleyball team,
00:32:19you'll be the ball boy.
00:32:20If she goes walking,
00:32:21you will carry the bags.
00:32:23Got it?
00:32:26No, I don't think so.
00:32:27Not over my dead body.
00:32:28Here's Julian,
00:32:29that way you watch Alex Gray.
00:32:30Wow, did you see Eleanor today?
00:32:32She's even cuter than before.
00:32:33Totally.
00:32:33And she's even more put together
00:32:34than her sister.
00:32:36Damn, Julian!
00:32:37Even carrying her bags for her?
00:32:40Somebody's whipped.
00:32:40Shut it.
00:32:41Uh, Jules.
00:32:42Go on ahead.
00:32:42I'm going to take a smoke break.
00:32:43Wait.
00:32:46Family allowance rules.
00:32:47Read carefully.
00:32:49Later cutting class,
00:32:50minus 100.
00:32:50Sleeping class,
00:32:51minus 100.
00:32:52Smoking,
00:32:52minus 500.
00:32:53Finding minus 1,000.
00:32:53What?
00:32:54This sucks.
00:32:55What the hell is this supposed to mean?
00:32:59What the hell is this supposed to mean?
00:33:00Disrespecting your elders?
00:33:01That's another five grand.
00:33:03Bullshit.
00:33:03Why would you get my allowance?
00:33:04You tell me.
00:33:05Why do you think I did that?
00:33:07But Eleanor is
00:33:08the Whitmore matriarch.
00:33:10Half of our family's fortune
00:33:11traces back to her.
00:33:12From this moment on,
00:33:13you will respect her,
00:33:15obey her,
00:33:17protect her.
00:33:20Still smoking?
00:33:22Bye.
00:33:22I'll quit.
00:33:23I'll be getting crocheting instead.
00:33:24Thomas Schindler flowers
00:33:31in the upstairs suite.
00:33:32Yes, ma'am.
00:33:34Master Sebastian,
00:33:35Miss Smith, you're back.
00:33:35Do you need any help?
00:33:36No, we need.
00:33:37I've got him.
00:33:39The second floor master suite.
00:33:41That used to be
00:33:42where Mr. Whitmore's mother lived,
00:33:43and now he gives it to her.
00:33:44What's wrong?
00:33:54So, be honest with me.
00:33:56What is Miss Hawthorne's role
00:33:57here at Rosewood Manor?
00:33:58She's, um,
00:33:59family.
00:34:01Family?
00:34:02What about me?
00:34:03After all this time,
00:34:04what am I?
00:34:05You're my girlfriend.
00:34:06She's family.
00:34:07It's not the same thing.
00:34:08There's no conflict.
00:34:09Come on.
00:34:11Why are you crying?
00:34:11Don't overthink it.
00:34:18Eleanor, I won't make
00:34:19this easy for you.
00:34:26Gigi, you made it through
00:34:27Super Idol's open casting.
00:34:28I saw your name on the list.
00:34:29Congratulations.
00:34:30Mom, you were amazing.
00:34:31I only signed up because of you.
00:34:33But now that you're awake,
00:34:34maybe there's no point
00:34:35in continuing.
00:34:35I remember how much
00:34:37you loved to sing
00:34:38when I was young.
00:34:39You even released an album.
00:34:40If it wasn't for your career,
00:34:41in science,
00:34:42you could have been
00:34:43a national star.
00:34:44I believed music
00:34:45couldn't change the world.
00:34:46Science could.
00:34:47Now, you've got a second chance.
00:34:48Why not try a different life?
00:34:51I don't know.
00:34:51What about school?
00:34:52The film's on the weekend,
00:34:52so you won't interfere
00:34:53with your studies.
00:34:54Honestly, it may be
00:34:54a fun opportunity.
00:34:57All right.
00:35:00Reach out to the head
00:35:00of entertainment at Whitmore.
00:35:01Tell them to give their
00:35:02sole support to your Gigi.
00:35:02No, Lexi.
00:35:04If I rely on special treatment,
00:35:05is that really experiencing life?
00:35:07Besides,
00:35:08it wouldn't be fair
00:35:08to the other contestants.
00:35:09You're right, Mother.
00:35:10But tomorrow,
00:35:12I will be there
00:35:13at the preliminary round
00:35:14cheering you on.
00:35:15And you're coming too.
00:35:16Bring Julian.
00:35:17Make the arrangements.
00:35:18Got it.
00:35:19Got it, girl.
00:35:23Backed by the Whitmore group,
00:35:25Super Idol drew
00:35:25in 40,000 auditions.
00:35:26Now,
00:35:27only 24 contestants remain.
00:35:29Tonight,
00:35:29they'll fight to make it
00:35:30to the semifinals,
00:35:31meeting at least
00:35:31two judges' votes.
00:35:32when it's your turn, honey.
00:35:35No one else will matter.
00:35:37Madison,
00:35:38I love you.
00:35:38Will you sign this?
00:35:40Of course.
00:35:44Wait.
00:35:45She got in, too?
00:35:47Eleanor,
00:35:47I didn't expect you
00:35:48to make it past the prelims.
00:35:49Why didn't you tell us?
00:35:50Everything here is for Madison.
00:35:52Nothing for you.
00:35:53Such a pity.
00:35:54Yeah.
00:35:54If it were me,
00:35:55I'd be too embarrassed
00:35:56to even stand here.
00:35:57Better go home
00:35:57before you shame us further.
00:35:59Strange.
00:35:59I thought this was
00:36:00a singing competition,
00:36:01not a fan club.
00:36:03You.
00:36:04Look,
00:36:04the organizer are here.
00:36:13Oh, my God.
00:36:14That's Alexander Whitmore,
00:36:15chairman of the Whitmore group.
00:36:16Yeah,
00:36:16and with him,
00:36:17Sebastian Whitmore,
00:36:17the CEO.
00:36:20Alexander Whitmore
00:36:21hasn't appeared in public
00:36:22for ages.
00:36:22Yeah, I know,
00:36:23and I'm both of them here.
00:36:24That's unbelievable.
00:36:25Where is your great-grandmother?
00:36:27Find her.
00:36:28Relax, Grandpa.
00:36:28All the contestants
00:36:29are up front.
00:36:31If the Whitmores notice Madison,
00:36:32our family is set for life.
00:36:33Exactly.
00:36:34Madison has to win.
00:36:35Let's not waste this opportunity.
00:36:36Mr. Whitmore,
00:36:36it's an honor.
00:36:37I'm Victor Hawthorne.
00:36:38Hawthorne.
00:36:39Don't you have a daughter?
00:36:41Yes, yes,
00:36:41that's right.
00:36:42Allow me to introduce you
00:36:42to my daughter, Madison.
00:36:43Finally.
00:36:44I found you.
00:36:48Alex,
00:36:49what are you doing?
00:36:50Cheering you on,
00:36:51of course.
00:36:53One,
00:36:53two,
00:36:54three.
00:36:55One,
00:36:55two.
00:36:57Ta-da!
00:36:57I brought you
00:36:59a cheer squad.
00:37:00Things in other.
00:37:01Lexi,
00:37:02I thought we agreed
00:37:03to keep things low-key.
00:37:04We don't want to crowd the place.
00:37:06Okay.
00:37:08Anything for you.
00:37:09All right,
00:37:10clear the halls.
00:37:10It's time to go.
00:37:11Roll up.
00:37:12How does Eleanor
00:37:13know Alexander Whitmore?
00:37:14She grew up in the sticks.
00:37:16How could she possibly
00:37:17talk to the chairman
00:37:17of the Whitmore group?
00:37:19Unless,
00:37:20she's his sugar baby.
00:37:22Shameful
00:37:22to think the Hawthorne name
00:37:24is tied to someone like her.
00:37:29Hello, everyone.
00:37:30I'm Claudia.
00:37:30I'm representing the organizers.
00:37:32If you have any concerns
00:37:33or suggestions,
00:37:33bring them to me
00:37:34and I'll be sure
00:37:34they're addressed.
00:37:37Eleanor,
00:37:38here too.
00:37:39Did Mr. Whitmore
00:37:39come just for her?
00:37:40Is this whole show
00:37:41a setup to make her a star?
00:37:42Get me Eleanor Hawthorne's
00:37:43full file.
00:37:44Now.
00:37:46Darling,
00:37:47the look I'm about to give you
00:37:48is going to turn
00:37:49every head in that room.
00:37:50I'll leave it in your hands.
00:37:51Okay.
00:37:53So,
00:37:53I was...
00:37:53Oh, hang on.
00:37:55Hello?
00:37:56What?
00:37:57Now?
00:37:59Okay,
00:37:59coming.
00:38:00Yeah.
00:38:01So sorry, sweetheart.
00:38:02The director needs me
00:38:02and it's urgent.
00:38:03I'll be right back soon.
00:38:04Hopefully.
00:38:06Half an hour
00:38:06until Eleanor hits the stage.
00:38:07No stylus,
00:38:08no costume.
00:38:09She's walking straight
00:38:09into a disaster.
00:38:11Come on.
00:38:11Keep going.
00:38:12Faster.
00:38:18Eleanor is the best.
00:38:21Eleanor,
00:38:21who even is she?
00:38:22Madison's the real star here.
00:38:23Don't you belong
00:38:24in a nursing home,
00:38:24old man?
00:38:25Get lost.
00:38:26Easy.
00:38:28Can't we get security
00:38:28to kick those brats
00:38:29out of here?
00:38:30Just watch the show
00:38:30on the other side of war.
00:38:31They were trash-talking
00:38:31your great-grandmother.
00:38:34Here,
00:38:34you two.
00:38:35You,
00:38:36both of you.

00:39:30There we go.
00:39:36He's not even
00:39:37wearing makeup
00:39:37on stage?
00:39:38Really?
00:39:39Why is your great-grandmother
00:39:41on stage
00:39:41without a costume
00:39:42or makeup?
00:39:42I'll wait,
00:39:43I'll find out.
00:39:46Well,
00:39:46that's an intro.
00:39:47I like to make
00:39:48an impression.
00:39:54Danny boy,
00:39:55the pipes,
00:39:56the pipes are calling
00:39:57from glen to glen
00:39:59and down the mountainside.
00:40:01the summer's gone.
00:40:04Does our daddy rest?
00:40:06Yes,
00:40:07sweetheart.
00:40:08Father was a hero.
00:40:09So is.
00:40:11We miss him.
00:40:12I know.
00:40:14Whenever we miss him,
00:40:15we can,
00:40:16we can sing
00:40:17his favorite song together.
00:40:18He'll always be with us.
00:40:21I don't feel like crying.
00:40:24Her voice is like,
00:40:25an angel.
00:40:25The summer's gone
00:40:27and all the roses fall
00:40:29It's you,
00:40:31it's you,
00:40:32must go
00:40:33and I must ride.
00:40:49Incredible.
00:40:50Now let's hear
00:40:50from our judges.
00:40:54That's three yes votes.
00:40:55Congratulations.
00:40:57Wait,
00:40:58just one more thing.
00:40:58Please,
00:40:59Judge Miller.
00:40:59So as you all know,
00:41:01we judges have
00:41:01a special privilege.
00:41:02The golden ticket,
00:41:03a direct pass
00:41:04to the finals.
00:41:05So all three of us agree
00:41:06that Eleanor gave
00:41:07the most passionate,
00:41:08genuine,
00:41:08moving performance.
00:41:09So we would like
00:41:10to award her
00:41:10the golden ticket.
00:41:14This was rigged.
00:41:16Madison was way better.
00:41:18Better?
00:41:18Eleanor is the definition
00:41:19of real talent.
00:41:20Sir,
00:41:21we just got word
00:41:22that Miss Smith
00:41:22pulled away
00:41:23Miss Hoffman's makeup artist
00:41:23at the last minute.
00:41:24Saying she needed
00:41:25his touch-up.
00:41:30Congratulations,
00:41:31Miss Hawthorne.
00:41:32Made it to the finals.
00:41:33The finals are about popularity,
00:41:34so I don't think
00:41:34you stand a chance.
00:41:35Miss Smith,
00:41:36if you can't separate
00:41:37grudges from work,
00:41:37maybe Chief Secretary
00:41:38to the CEO
00:41:39isn't the right position
00:41:39for you.
00:41:41Please.
00:41:41I was personally
00:41:42invited into this company.
00:41:43You can't fire me.
00:41:44No one can.
00:41:45You either submit
00:41:45your resignation
00:41:46or wait for Whitmore Group
00:41:48to terminate you.
00:41:49Such arrogance.
00:41:50You know,
00:41:50I looked you up.
00:41:51You're a country bumpkin.
00:41:52Don't let Mr. Whitmore's attention
00:41:54make you feel special.
00:41:56Sebastian's the true heir,
00:41:57and I'm his girlfriend,
00:41:58and therefore I'm the future
00:41:58Mrs. Whitmore.
00:41:59So tell me,
00:42:00what gives you the right
00:42:01to fire me?
00:42:03The phone call
00:42:03you're about to receive.
00:42:08Miss Smith,
00:42:09due to multiple policy violations,
00:42:11your employment
00:42:11with Whitmore Group
00:42:12has been terminated
00:42:12effective immediately.
00:42:14Mom,
00:42:18you were fantastic.
00:42:20Absolutely brilliant.
00:42:23Sabi,
00:42:24is this about Claudia?
00:42:25Your grandfather and I
00:42:26both agreed to let her go.
00:42:27Gigi,
00:42:27she wasn't trying
00:42:28to sabotage you.
00:42:29She just cares
00:42:30about her image too much.
00:42:31Firing her was too harsh,
00:42:32maybe we should...
00:42:32She was disloyal,
00:42:34Zed.
00:42:34She wasn't fit for the role,
00:42:35and honestly,
00:42:36I'm starting to wonder
00:42:37if you're fit
00:42:38to be CEO.
00:42:40Tim,
00:42:41bring in those
00:42:41transfer papers.
00:42:42Now.
00:42:47Master Sebastian,
00:42:48sign here, please.
00:42:48No, not him.
00:42:51All my shares
00:42:51are going
00:42:52to Miss Hawthorne.
00:42:54Yes, sir.
00:42:58The company's been
00:42:59in a bit of a mess, Mom.
00:43:00I've done what I could,
00:43:01but some things
00:43:03are just beyond me.
00:43:04Lexi is 80.
00:43:05How could I just
00:43:05let him bear it all alone?
00:43:07The Whitmore legacy
00:43:07must go on.
00:43:11I'll do my part.
00:43:12Now that your great-grandmother
00:43:17is chairwoman,
00:43:18I don't think
00:43:19she needs to explain
00:43:20her personal decisions
00:43:21to you,
00:43:21Mr. CEO.
00:43:23Oh.
00:43:29Tim, I'm here.
00:43:30Can we speed things up?
00:43:31I've got a school project
00:43:31to finish.
00:43:32She must be an intern.
00:43:33Lucky the other
00:43:34getting a break like this.
00:43:35Yeah, dude.
00:43:36Whitmore's no joke.
00:43:37Madam chairwoman,
00:43:38right this way, please.
00:43:39Chairwoman?
00:43:39That girl?
00:43:41The purchasing record's
00:43:42going out out.
00:43:43Who's in charge of employee
00:43:43welfare procurement?
00:43:44Bring him to me now.
00:43:45That's usually Claudia's
00:43:46brother John's responsibility,
00:43:47but he already clocked out.
00:43:49Clocked out?
00:43:49But there's still
00:43:5015 minutes until 5 p.m.
00:43:51Well, Mr. Smith is
00:43:52the CEO's brother-in-law,
00:43:53so he comes and goes
00:43:54as he pleases.
00:43:55And if his sister said anything...
00:43:56This is the great
00:43:58Whitmore legacy?
00:43:59Surrounded by parasites.
00:44:01This is all the proof I need.
00:44:02Call the authorities.
00:44:04This is Rob.
00:44:05Yes, ma'am.
00:44:05Here, Mom.
00:44:10Have some coffee.
00:44:12Claudia's brother
00:44:12has only been here
00:44:13six months.
00:44:14Mistakes happen.
00:44:15Involving the police
00:44:15seems unnecessary.
00:44:17The ledger shows
00:44:18he's siphoned nearly
00:44:18a million in six months.
00:44:20Tell me, Sebastian,
00:44:20how would you handle that?
00:44:22Their parents died young.
00:44:23He's all clearly has left.
00:44:24Foolish boy!
00:44:26That boy is a parasite.
00:44:28Rotting this family
00:44:28from within,
00:44:29and you dare defend him!
00:44:31Lexi, calm down.
00:44:32It's not worth it, sit.
00:44:34He'll be the death of me, boy.
00:44:36If John Smith
00:44:36pays back five times
00:44:37the damages,
00:44:38call off the report.
00:44:39Five times?
00:44:40That's over five million dollars.
00:44:42I'll have to sell
00:44:43one of my properties.
00:44:44And just to be clear,
00:44:44no patching up his mess
00:44:45with Whitmore assets.
00:44:46I've already instructed Tim
00:44:47to freeze all family accounts
00:44:48under your name.
00:44:50Sorry, Seth.
00:44:54Sorry, Seth.
00:44:55We're family.
00:44:56Doesn't seem unnecessary.
00:44:57I don't care if that boy
00:44:58goes to prison.
00:44:59This is to open your eyes.
00:45:01Blood?
00:45:02Still blood.
00:45:03We can't simply walk away.
00:45:04As always.
00:45:05You're one step ahead, Mom.
00:45:07And don't go begging, boy.
00:45:09No one will lend you a dime.
00:45:11Not on my watch.
00:45:12Grandma, you can't!
00:45:19Seth said he's not eating.
00:45:20We should start without him.
00:45:21Busy or not,
00:45:21skipping meals isn't an option.
00:45:23He's busy.
00:45:24He's taking on private cases,
00:45:25working late,
00:45:26scrambling up that five million
00:45:26to bail with Claudia's brother out.
00:45:27I mean, for her babe, sure, maybe.
00:45:29But for her brother,
00:45:29never in a million years.
00:45:30That's love.
00:45:31Love or not,
00:45:32she's not worth it.
00:45:34Mom's right.
00:45:37Seb's already given Claudia
00:45:38a twenty million dollar villa,
00:45:40plus millions more
00:45:41for jewelry
00:45:42and handbags
00:45:43and other trinkets.
00:45:44Strange.
00:45:45I haven't seen Claudia
00:45:46sell off anything of hers
00:45:47to pay off the debt.
00:45:48It's time you learned.
00:45:49Otherwise,
00:45:49he'll never be fit
00:45:50to lead Whitmore.
00:45:55Did I say I was working?
00:45:56Out!
00:45:57Dad, I just,
00:45:58you've been working so hard.
00:45:59If you won't eat,
00:46:00you'll work yourself out.
00:46:02Lulu, out!
00:46:03Dad,
00:46:04I heard a great grandpa said
00:46:05you're short on money.
00:46:08Here,
00:46:08this might save you down.
00:46:10Thomas helped me set it up.
00:46:11I had saved
00:46:11over more than ten thousand.
00:46:13Here,
00:46:13you can have it.
00:46:14Daddy's not short on money.
00:46:22Here.
00:46:24Keep it for yourself.
00:46:25You're rich?
00:46:26Of course.
00:46:27I don't know how long
00:46:28Daddy's still got what to do.
00:46:30Maybe I've been so focused
00:46:31on everything else
00:46:31I lost sight of her.
00:46:34Dear sweet Lulu,
00:46:35I heard you're even wealthier than me.
00:46:36How about you lend me some money?
00:46:37You've always been my favorite.
00:46:38Asking kids for money now?
00:46:45That's a new low,
00:46:46even for you.
00:46:48You want money?
00:46:50I'll give you a chance.
00:46:51Drop a scholarship plan
00:46:52for the Whitmore Foundation.
00:46:53First draft room tomorrow morning.
00:46:54What?
00:46:55I don't know how to do that.
00:46:56Then learn,
00:46:57or keep wasting your life here.
00:47:08Check it out, Gigi.
00:47:12My scholarship plan is genius.
00:47:17Not bad.
00:47:18The foundation could actually use this.
00:47:20You've got a good mind.
00:47:21Hey, you won't use it more.
00:47:22You hear that, Grandpa?
00:47:23Gigi says I'm genius.
00:47:27I'll have someone polish it up
00:47:28and put it into motion.
00:47:29What about my reward?
00:47:31You spell it out yourself right here.
00:47:32Meet just one of the scholarship requirements
00:47:34and I'll double your reward.
00:47:35You've tricked me, Gigi.
00:47:37Relax.
00:47:37You can make six figures in a year.
00:47:40Feels better when you earn it, doesn't it?
00:47:51Dude, don't forget.
00:47:52Party at my place tonight.
00:47:54I can't.
00:47:54I'm studying.
00:47:55Studying?
00:47:56Dude, are you sick or something?
00:47:59Do it more scholarship.
00:48:01You can qualify, too.
00:48:01It's practically free money, Peter.
00:48:03You know who gets babes?
00:48:04Rich guys.
00:48:06No way.
00:48:07The Whitmore Scholarship can pay that much.
00:48:08Yeah, and if you're in the top 10%,
00:48:09you can get that pay, too.
00:48:12Too late for me to catch up now?
00:48:13The moment you think it's too late
00:48:14is actually the best time to start.
00:48:18If you've got questions, ask me anytime.
00:48:24Now I see why you're so into Eleanor.
00:48:26She's worth it.
00:48:27Don't get a choice of Peter.
00:48:27You have no idea what to make on.
00:48:30Conversation's ready.
00:48:32Your brother will be out soon.
00:48:33Thank you so much, Seb.
00:48:34Truly.
00:48:34I mean, I know my brother was in the wrong.
00:48:37Maybe I should go apologize to Mr. Whitmore?
00:48:38Fine.
00:48:39Let's go.
00:48:42I don't feel like coffee today.
00:48:44Pour me some black tea, Lexi.
00:48:45Of course.
00:48:50So I was wrong before.
00:48:51Eleanor isn't into Seb.
00:48:52She's after Mr. Whitmore.
00:48:54Great-grandpa.
00:48:56My uncle made a mistake.
00:48:57I want to apologize for him.
00:48:58Will you forgive him?
00:48:59I'm sorry, Daisy.
00:49:00Your uncle broke the law.
00:49:01A child's apology will not fix this.
00:49:05A child's apology will not fix this.
00:49:08Daisy, darling, why don't you go play with Lulu?
00:49:10Okay.
00:49:11Mr. Whitmore, I know my brother acted foolishly,
00:49:14but a few nights in that cell,
00:49:15he's learned his lesson.
00:49:16He won't do it anymore.
00:49:17Here.
00:49:18Darjeeling.
00:49:19First flush.
00:49:20In the finest.
00:49:20Oh, be careful.
00:49:21It's still hot.
00:49:24Excuse me.
00:49:26I'm going to have a walk in the garden.
00:49:31What are you doing?
00:49:32Friday is coming.
00:49:33I'm drawing a picture for my daddy.
00:49:37Why do you have so many pretty dresses and shoes?
00:49:39I see Eleanor got them for me.
00:49:40She says she can't wear this shiny pretty thing.
00:49:43She spoils me.
00:49:44Look, I think I'm the same pair as you.
00:49:45Why does she get more than me?
00:49:47Daisy, what are you doing?
00:49:48Please stop everyone with them.
00:49:50Daisy, you're close.
00:49:52Good job.
00:49:53Daisy, what's going on in there?
00:50:00Daisy, what's going on in there?
00:50:04Sweetheart, what's happening?
00:50:05You should have been taught mommy.
00:50:07Is it true?
00:50:07Hello, personally.
00:50:08I said I don't have a dad.
00:50:09He told me to get out.
00:50:10I just wanted to play with her.
00:50:12Lulu, apologize to Daisy right now.
00:50:13I swear I didn't.
00:50:15No, Seb, don't be so harsh.
00:50:17It seems like Daisy ripped up the picture first.
00:50:20That's true.
00:50:20She doesn't have a father.
00:50:22Lulu, if you don't apologize to Daisy right now, you're grounded.
00:50:24I know where I did it.
00:50:25Looks like Lulu's the one being framed.
00:50:29Good thing I walked by it earlier.
00:50:31Hope the girls look cute.
00:50:32Decided to film a bit.
00:50:34Care to see?
00:50:41It's ridiculous.
00:50:45Daisy, you framed Lulu.
00:50:47You're seven years old.
00:50:48Why would you do that?
00:50:49I'm sorry.
00:50:49I was just jealous.
00:50:50Lulu has everything.
00:50:51Daddy yells at me because I'm not his real daughter.
00:50:53Nobody loves me.
00:50:54Sebastian, don't blame her.
00:50:56She's starved for love.
00:50:57I mean, she doesn't have a father.
00:50:59So she, this is her asking for her attention.
00:51:01Miss Smith, you sure do love twisting the truth.
00:51:03By your logic, everyone without a father deserves a free pass.
00:51:06Even for a crime.
00:51:09Claudia, whatever's going on between us, we need a break.
00:51:12In your brother's mess, it's not my problem right now.
00:51:14Thomas?
00:51:14Thomas?
00:51:16Matthew Smith, I'll see Miss Smith out.
00:51:18Yes, sir.
00:51:19Miss?
00:51:23Sebby, she's your daughter.
00:51:25Yet, you believe someone else's word over hers?
00:51:28At least, you owe her an apology.
00:51:31I'm sorry.
00:51:31Not to me, to Lulu.
00:51:33She deserves to hear from you.
00:51:35Hey, I'm sorry.
00:51:38Daddy made a mistake.
00:51:39Nicholas forgive me.
00:51:40If you really want to earn her forgiveness, prove it.
00:51:46Earn her trust.
00:51:47Give her the security she deserves.
00:51:48A-minus.
00:52:06Genius.
00:52:08A-plus?
00:52:09Are you not excited?
00:52:10What are you doing?
00:52:10Working on my model for the National Science Competition.
00:52:13Not bad.
00:52:13Keep it up.
00:52:14We're getting closer to that scholarship.
00:52:15This prototype cools compact reactors more safely, raising efficiency and cutting meltdown
00:52:23risk by 40%.
00:52:24Wait, are you saying you did this just by tweaking the XXV loop?
00:52:27Exactly.
00:52:27Closing the loop doubles the efficiency.
00:52:29A high schooler just solved what a PhD student struggled with.
00:52:32Am I hearing that right, Professor Grant?
00:52:33She's right.
00:52:34This ties directly to our NASA fusion program.
00:52:36Miss Hawthorne, you've got the kind of mind this country needs.
00:52:39Class, I'm proud to announce Eleanor Hawthorne, first place in the National Science Competition.
00:52:48She's brought honor to herself and to this school.
00:52:50Congratulations.
00:52:51Thank you, Mr. Carter.
00:52:52It's truly an honor.
00:52:53Self-advocates.
00:52:54No way!
00:52:55How is that even possible?
00:52:56Why not?
00:53:00With Eleanor's help, I even got an A-.
00:53:02Same here.
00:53:02My grades went up too.
00:53:03Eleanor's basically a goddess.
00:53:05Grades don't matter.
00:53:06In this world, money talks.
00:53:07Once Madison wins Super Idol, she'll be filthy rich.
00:53:09Concerts, endorsements, millions.
00:53:11Girls like Eleanor, they'll end up working for her.
00:53:14It's not worth it.
00:53:15You mean Professor Grant's project, the nuclear fusion reactor?
00:53:22Yeah.
00:53:23If we don't fix the cooling model, it's over.
00:53:2520 years of research, gone.
00:53:26There's really no work around.
00:53:27In the 1940s, there were classified manuscripts with similar design.
00:53:31It's never been decrypted.
00:53:32The author signed them an EGW.
00:53:34Look, we only have 24 hours.
00:53:35The team's in chaos.
00:53:36And Dr. Grant hasn't slept in days.
00:53:38Maybe I can help.
00:53:39Where are you?
00:53:40Edwin, this is the student I told you about.
00:53:41Eleanor, this is Dr. Fisher, my old MIT colleague.
00:53:43He's working on a joint project with NASA.
00:53:44Do you even know what we're talking about?
00:53:46Yes, I do.
00:53:48Eleanor, why don't you wait outside for a moment?
00:53:51Back to my old fool.
00:53:54You!
00:53:55Professor, I can break EGW's code.
00:54:00Impossible.
00:54:00This is natural security, not a science fair.
00:54:02Scientists in the 30s and 40s often hum tunes while working.
00:54:05The cipher lends melody with numbers.
00:54:08Here's the pattern.
00:54:09How could you possibly know this?
00:54:16Who are you?
00:54:17Who I am doesn't matter.
00:54:18What matters is you're running out of time.
00:54:19Let me help.
00:54:22Come to me.
00:54:27Heading home?
00:54:28You're going ahead.
00:54:28I sold the urgent to handle.
00:54:29I won't be back tonight.
00:54:30But the talent show finals are tonight.
00:54:31Alex and Lou made a whole fan club.
00:54:33And your outfits are ready.
00:54:34And I made t-shirts.
00:54:34Be good, Jules.
00:54:35Go home.
00:54:39Are she acting mysterious?
00:54:41Ah, Master Julian.
00:54:43Please get him.
00:54:45Isn't that the Whitmore's driver?
00:54:50Wait, did he just say Master Julian?
00:54:52I heard the Whitmores have a young heir.
00:54:54Could it really be him?
00:54:55Oh my god, that's right.
00:54:57I've seen it with the Whitmore family before.
00:54:59So all this time he's been rich.
00:55:01Like, stupid rich.
00:55:02So the necklace he bought for Eleanor was real.
00:55:06Why does Eleanor get everything?
00:55:08Julian used to like me.
00:55:09Oh darling, the finals are tomorrow.
00:55:11You're leading in popularity.
00:55:13Win that trophy and then take Julian back.
00:55:16You're right.
00:55:16The cipher, it all fits.
00:55:28Music turns into math.
00:55:30Each note is a number.
00:55:31Align the sequences and there it is.
00:55:33The formula the manuscript was pointing to.
00:55:35I cannot believe that we're taking advice from a high schooler.
00:55:38He's right.
00:55:38This is a total waste of time.
00:55:40Run her formulas through the supercomputer.
00:55:42Let's see if the cooling model runs.
00:55:43We've been hit.
00:55:52External breach.
00:55:52The supercomputer's down.
00:55:53We've only got six hours left.
00:55:54It's over.
00:55:55No, it's not.
00:55:56We have the formula.
00:55:57We split equations and we calculate by hand.
00:55:58And calculations?
00:55:59By this scale?
00:56:00That's insane.
00:56:00In the 40s, they had nothing but chalkboards and guts.
00:56:03Science didn't stop and neither will we.
00:56:04Do you understand how much that we've invested?
00:56:06One error could cause an explosion.
00:56:07Do you understand the stakes?
00:56:08I'll check every line.
00:56:09There won't be any mistakes.
00:56:10And how could you be so sure?
00:56:12Because it's me.
00:56:12This is my good personality.
00:56:16I'm going to keep my hands.
00:56:17Oh, no.
00:56:19We're late.
00:56:19And the Madison people got the best spot.
00:56:23Sweetheart, follow my lead.
00:56:33Could you let us do?
00:56:34My great-great-grandpa is super old.
00:56:36And his last wish is to cheer for his favorite contestant.
00:56:39Front row is secure.
00:56:45Come on!
00:56:46Whoa!
00:56:49Eleanor!
00:56:50An old man has more energy than half the people here.
00:56:52Evelyn's got Mr. Whitmore utterly bewitched.
00:56:54Imagine a billionaire making such a spectacle of himself.
00:56:57Such a shameless daughter.
00:56:58Thank God Madison's about to perform.
00:56:59Let's just focus on her.
00:57:01Eleanor!
00:57:01Madison!
00:57:03Eleanor!
00:57:03Eleanor!
00:57:04Madison!
00:57:04Eleanor!
00:57:08Oh, my God!
00:57:10Madison!
00:57:12Madison!
00:57:13Oh, yeah!
00:57:14Your great-grandmother has much more talent.
00:57:17Of course.
00:57:19Thank you, Madison.
00:57:20Madison!
00:57:21Madison!
00:57:21Madison!
00:57:21Madison!
00:57:22Madison!
00:57:22Everyone, don't forget to vote, both here and online.
00:57:24Next up, Eleanor Hawthorne!
00:57:26Woo!
00:57:27Oh, I just got news from the producers that Eleanor has not arrived backstage yet.
00:57:32We'll wait a moment for her.
00:57:33This is unfair.
00:57:35Rules are rules.
00:57:35She should be disqualified.
00:57:40Disqualify her!
00:57:41Disqualify her!
00:57:42This is absurd!
00:57:43The show has moved up half an hour.
00:57:44Eleanor is not to blame for being late.
00:57:47Let her see!
00:57:48Let her see!
00:57:48Quiet, please.
00:57:49I just got word from our producers, we will wait three minutes for Eleanor.
00:57:52If she does not show, she will be out of the competition.
00:57:57Only three seconds left.
00:57:59Three...
00:58:00Two...
00:58:01One!
00:58:13Eleanor!
00:58:14Eleanor is here.
00:58:19One!
00:58:21One!
00:58:21One!
00:58:22One!
00:58:22One!
00:58:23One!
00:58:24One!
00:58:24One!
00:58:25One!
00:58:26One!
00:58:26One!
00:58:27One!
00:58:27One!
00:58:27One!
00:58:28One!
00:58:28One!
00:58:29One!
00:58:29One!
00:58:29One!
00:58:30One!
00:58:30One!
00:58:30One!
00:58:31One!
00:58:31One!
00:58:32One!
00:58:32One!
00:58:33Why would you give you this song?
00:58:35Because it's me.
00:58:36I believe Ms. Hawthorne.
00:58:37What's next?
00:58:38I need twenty of you to run equations.
00:58:40Let me help.
00:58:40Count me in.
00:58:41I'll help.
00:58:41Me too.
00:58:42I'm in.
00:58:43I need one more.
00:58:45Are you in?
00:58:47Or are you waiting to say I told you so?
00:58:49I'm in.
00:59:10It checks out. We're clear.
00:59:11Power's back online.
00:59:14Feed it through the system.
00:59:20Look, watch the screen.
00:59:24Will it hold?
00:59:25Please, it has to.
00:59:33The cooling system's stable!
00:59:36Sign's gone!
00:59:40You've only been awake for two days. Get some rest.
00:59:42I'll say. Someone has to watch the firewall. Foreign intrusions are still possible.
00:59:45Me too. I can help.
00:59:49Professor Grant.
00:59:53Miss Hawthorne's handwriting.
00:59:54It's a perfect match for the 1940s EGW's manuscripts.
00:59:59Who is she?
01:00:01Jonathan, I think I finally understand why I'm here.
01:00:03Because this country always has people willing to fight for its future.
01:00:06Ladies and gentlemen, the votes are in. The winner of this year's competition is...
01:00:21Eleanor Hawthorne!
01:00:25This isn't fair!
01:00:26Too late. She should be disqualified.
01:00:28Withdraw!
01:00:29Withdraw!
01:00:30Sorry, I was delayed because of something important.
01:00:31Important?
01:00:32You mean, sneaking into a government lab?
01:00:34No!
01:00:35Get off the site!
01:00:36I did not trespass.
01:00:37Then explain yourself.
01:00:38I can't.
01:00:40It's classified.
01:00:41Classified.
01:00:42Or are you a spy?
01:00:43How could a high schooler access a classified site?
01:00:45Yeah, she's a spy, right?
01:00:46There is no other explanation.
01:00:50This is nothing new.
01:00:51As a former Whitmore employee, I can confirm that Eleanor's victory is rigged.
01:00:55She is sleeping with the Whitmore chairman.
01:00:59She is sleeping with the Whitmore chairman.
01:01:01Oh my god.
01:01:03That is a lie.
01:01:04She doesn't deserve to debut.
01:01:05Quit while you can.
01:01:07Withdraw!
01:01:08Withdraw!
01:01:09Slander!
01:01:10Lies!
01:01:11Guys, are you really willing to risk national security?
01:01:13She must be disqualified.
01:01:14Withdraw!
01:01:15Withdraw!
01:01:16That's impossible.
01:01:17Now, here's the decision from the producers.
01:01:18The competition is suspended.
01:01:20Eleanor's title will be withdrawn with further investigation.
01:01:22You're finished, Eleanor.
01:01:24Hold on.
01:01:25I am Professor Amy Grant, NASA's Chief Scientist.
01:01:33What are they doing here?
01:01:34Don't tell me they've come to confront Eleanor.
01:01:36We are here to support Ms. Hawthorne.
01:01:39What?
01:01:44Eleanor Hawthorne just helped avert a nuclear crisis.
01:01:48On behalf of NASA, we present her with the Distinguished Public Service Medal.
01:01:53Yeah!
01:01:55Eleanor!
01:01:56Yeah!
01:02:01See?
01:02:02That's my mom.
01:02:03Of course.
01:02:04No, it's hard to get a stroll into NASA.
01:02:05Maybe we were wrong.
01:02:12Claudia Smith, Madison Hawthorne.
01:02:13You're under investigation for leaking classified information.
01:02:15You need to come with us.
01:02:16No, this is wrong.
01:02:17No.
01:02:18What are you doing?
01:02:19No.
01:02:21Sir, this is a big misunderstanding.
01:02:22Madison knew nothing.
01:02:23Enough excuses.
01:02:24Anyone who has slandered Eleanor Hawthorne's name will answer for it.
01:02:27Especially you two.
01:02:33Tim.
01:02:34Destroy all Hawthorne businesses.
01:02:35Now!
01:02:36You Whitmores think that you can just control everyone!
01:02:42It's over.
01:02:43All of our partners have got ties with us!
01:02:44We're bankrupt!
01:02:45Why?!
01:02:46Please listen to me!
01:02:47It's not what it looks like!
01:02:48This is who you supported!
01:02:49Open your eyes!
01:02:50I used to think that Madison was kind and genuine.
01:02:51I was wrong.
01:02:52No.
01:02:53I can't believe I ever supported her!
01:02:54And the winner of Super Idol is Eleanor Hawthorne!
01:02:55Thank you for the support.
01:02:56Half of the money will go towards children's hospitals and the other half to fund future research.
01:03:01She's the real idol!
01:03:02Eleanor!
01:03:03Eleanor!
01:03:04Eleanor!
01:03:05Eleanor!
01:03:06Eleanor!
01:03:07Eleanor!
01:03:08That's my mom!
01:03:10She's the real idol!
01:03:11She's the real idol!
01:03:12Eleanor!
01:03:13Eleanor!
01:03:14Eleanor!
01:03:15Eleanor!
01:03:16That's my mom!
