00:17:33you've never been a good daughter-in-law your parents didn't even send a dime for the wedding

00:17:47her a
00:17:47brand new tesla not only did you show up with nothing now you're trying to empty his bank account

00:18:12to
00:18:12be part of the bates family but you're not off the hook yet what else could you possibly want from
00:18:18me
00:18:19well you're still married to dorian so he could be responsible for your debt but you took out the
00:18:25loan on your own right you should be the one to pay it back so here's what's gonna happen you're
00:18:31gonna
00:18:31sign a simple statement that says that dorian is not responsible for any of it
00:18:39who the hell did you just think i said i want you to sign this disclaimer that exempts dorian from
00:18:48any liability for your debt no way i am not just having this baby alone i mean this is dorian's
00:18:55child
00:18:55too and more importantly this child isn't yours the financial decisions are solely between
00:19:02that my husband and i how dare you raise your voice to me do you think you're hot
00:19:09shit just because dorian knocked you up you are nothing but a disrespectful little brat speaking to
00:19:17your mother-in-law that way iris seriously you should treat my mother with more respect are you hearing
00:19:23this i was just standing here sticking up for you and then she gives me this attitude when she pushes
00:19:29the
00:19:29baby out you're gonna need to put your foot down with her iris you've already taken out the loan
00:19:38so why are you dragging your feet signing the disclaimer sign the damn disclaimer you two are
00:19:45unbelievable this baby has your family's dms refusing financial liability is one thing but putting her
00:19:54health at risk right before birth it's diabolical like my mom said all pregnancies come with some
00:20:01level of risk but you don't see every pregnant woman spending a fortune do you if iris wants to stay
00:20:06in this plush-ass hospital then she can cough up the cash for it bastard oh don't fight them it's
00:20:14not worth
00:20:14that okay dorian i will sign the disclaimer but you have to promise me that you will not tell my
00:20:24dad
00:20:26i don't want him to worry about me it took a long time to get him to accept you and
00:20:33with his baby and
00:20:34his board i just wanted to have a complete meal what does iris's dad do not sure i only met
00:20:42him once

00:23:36disclaimer your mom is making my dad sign this disclaimer you were just gonna stand there iris
00:23:43all i've ever asked is that you'd be sympathetic to my financial constraints and not be wasteful
00:23:47with money how is that still so hard for you to understand i can't believe i'm about to sign off
00:23:54on a measly 20 000 word gets out i'll be the laughing stock of every boardroom in town
00:24:04iris if this is really the happily ever after you want i'll do it for you and the baby
00:24:13okay
00:24:30no
00:24:33Through this contract, null and void.
00:24:43I gave you an out.
00:24:46This is how you react?
00:24:47You are leaving this hospital right now.
00:24:50I don't care where that baby is born, but it sure as hell is not going to be here.
00:24:56Shut up!
00:25:00This baby is between Dorian and I, so stop getting it between us!
00:25:05You are a monstrous disgrace of a woman.
00:25:10What did you just call me?
00:25:12A disgrace.
00:25:15Dorian, I stood up for you through everything.
00:25:20When you wanted to chase your dreams and start your business, I gave you all of my savings.
00:25:28And now I swallow my pride and I take out this predatory loan.
00:25:37Meanwhile, because you, you don't even want to pay for the birth of your own child.
00:25:43Now you're asking my dad to sign this bullshit disclaimer.
00:25:50Dorian, you, you should be ashamed of yourself.
00:25:54Iris, I was not trying to-
00:25:56Dorian, don't fall for her act.
00:25:58She is just a spoiled, materialistic snob who insists on giving birth in the most expensive hospital.
00:26:08You're right, Mom.
00:26:10Iris, stop acting like the victim.
00:26:13You chose this place to show off.
00:26:15Trying to make yourself look rich and important.
00:26:18Look, if you don't want to sign the disclaimer, fine.
00:26:22But don't expect any help from me when the baby comes.
00:26:24So, you would hurt your back on your baby because of money.
00:26:34Okay.
00:26:36Bye.
00:26:39And I will raise this baby on my own.
00:26:47Dorian, I want a divorce.
00:27:12Iris, stop.
00:27:13What do you mean you want a divorce?
00:27:15Do you not love me anymore?
00:27:18I feel like I should be asking you if you ever really loved me.
00:27:22Dorian, what were you doing in there when your control freak of a mother was harassing me and forcing my
00:27:27dad to sign the disclaimer?
00:27:28I told you not to talk about my mom like that.
00:27:30All she's trying to do is help.
00:27:32Well, if that is what you think, then you should just live with your mom for the rest of your
00:27:35life.
00:27:36Iris, have you ever actually looked in the mirror?
00:27:40You're trash.
00:27:42And trash doesn't get to talk to my son like that.
00:27:47Touch me with your filthy hands.
00:27:50Dorian, first she was just spouting threats at me.
00:27:54And now, she's actually flat out assaulting me.
00:27:59You're a complete psycho.
00:28:01Iris, did you just push my mom?
00:28:03I mean, you're acting like a fucking lunatic.
00:28:05You're just going to pin this on me because I'm psycho?
00:28:08Iris, I gave you sound financial advice out of the kindness of my own heart.
00:28:16And instead of being grateful, you attack me.
00:28:20Is that not exactly what a psycho would do?
00:28:23No.
00:28:25It's not.
00:28:26Look at this.
00:28:31You bitch!
00:28:33How dare you fucking hit me.
00:28:36I'm going to fucking kill you!
00:28:39Touch my daughter again and you're dead!
00:28:46Dorian, they're ganging up on me.
00:28:49They're trying to beat up your poor old mother.
00:28:51Iris, I was blind to marry someone like you.
00:28:55No, Dorian, I was the blind one.
00:28:57I was the one who abandoned my family for a scumbag like you!
00:29:02You know, I really thought that you were different.
00:29:04I thought that you were a good man.
00:29:07A man who didn't care about money.
00:29:10A man who truly loved me.
00:29:12But it turns out, you were the type of man who abandoned their own child over $20,000
00:29:19and let their mother manipulate my father into signing a stupid agreement!
00:29:25Iris, you took out the loan yourself.
00:29:29Give me one good reason why my son should be responsible for your debt.
00:29:35Honestly, I've never seen anyone so shameless.
00:29:40You know, my Dorian was a real catch back then.
00:29:44And out of all the girls he could have chosen,
00:29:47he ended up with a useless wife like you.
00:29:51A broke-ass bitch who couldn't even afford to pay for the wedding.
00:29:56You know, since you've married my son, you've done nothing for our family.
00:30:02I mean, you could barely afford the mortgage and car payments.
00:30:05You only forked out a few thousand dollars when Dorian was trying to start his own business.
00:30:11And now, you are trying to bleed him dry.
00:30:14His wife covers the mortgage and the car payments.
00:30:17And she gave him money to start a business.
00:30:19That sounds like enough to me.
00:30:21I mean, what do they want from her?
00:30:23They're clearly the ones who are bleeding courage to cry.
00:30:25If I had a wife like that, I'd be living to drink.
00:30:27Right?
00:30:28That guy's mom looks super controlling.
00:30:30She's probably trying to drive a wedge between her son and his wife.
00:30:33What the hell do you idiots know?
00:30:35I'm just trying to protect my son's interests.
00:30:38You don't know shit.
00:30:39Unlike some moms, mine actually cares about me.
00:30:42So shut up and stay out of our business.
00:30:44And you.
00:30:45You didn't even send a dime when Dorian and Iris got married.
00:30:50And now, you show up empty-handed again today.
00:30:55Who says I came empty-handed?
00:31:01Who says I came empty-handed?
00:31:04Oh, please.
00:31:06Look at these fake designer clothes.
00:31:08So, uh, my clothes are fake now?
00:31:11No shit, they are.
00:31:14Cartelier is a Parisian jewelry brand.
00:31:18And you are wearing a blatant counterfeit of their cheetah brooch.
00:31:24Their most iconic item.
00:31:26If everything that you were wearing were legit, your outfit would cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
00:31:32If you really had the means to afford top-of-the-line stuff, why would Iris leave her family and
00:31:41work three jobs just to support herself?
00:31:44My baby girl, you've been through so much these last few years.
00:31:51Shut up!
00:31:53Ugh!
00:31:53Don't yell at me, you shrew!
00:31:57Dorian and I get to decide where and when that baby gets born.
00:32:03It looks like the only way to get you two to shut up is to bring out my gifts.
00:32:15Eric, bring the gifts in.
00:32:19Now.
00:32:20You are still keeping up that act?
00:32:24We're here, boss.
00:32:36Did you hire a group of actors?
00:32:41Did you really think that we were gonna fall for this?
00:32:44Iris, this entire thing started just because I wanted you to save a little money.
00:32:47Are you seriously blowing it this far out of proportion?
00:32:50No, no, no, sweetie.
00:32:52Leave it.
00:32:53I'm actually dying to see what luxury gifts this 20 grand in debt broke old bum brought with him.
00:33:16Good God!
00:33:18I've never seen that much hard cash.
00:33:20And with this many cases, it's got to be, what, seven or eight million?
00:33:24No way.
00:33:25That's at least ten mil.
00:33:26This was supposed to be your wedding gift.
00:33:29You mean this ten million dollars?
00:33:32If it's gonna be mine?
00:33:34Open the rest.
00:33:44These are the gifts that prepared for Iris' baby.
00:33:47That's the pink star, the world's most expensive diamond.
00:33:51Along with Bulgari's classic Emerald Jewel set.
00:33:54Only the best for my grandchild.
00:33:57Holy shit, the pink star diamond.
00:33:59The jewels in that case are worth almost a hundred million.
00:34:03Those are the deeds to seven mansions, all worth around 70 million dollars, because seven
00:34:10is Iris' lucky number.
00:34:12This is my grandchild's trust fund, worth over 200 million in assets.
00:34:20I've also arranged for the child to have one million dollars per month, until they turn 18.
00:34:31A 200 million dollar trust fund for a child that's not even born yet?
00:34:34That's crazy.
00:34:36If you two hadn't decided to abuse Iris today, all of this could have been yours.
00:34:43That's an insane amount of wealth.
00:34:45Man, that guy was so close to being the luckiest son-in-law in the world.
00:34:51And him and his mom were just calling her broke.
00:34:54They burned bridges with their super rich in-laws over a little 20 grand.
00:34:58I guess that's what the dude gets for being such a mom.
00:35:01If his evil mom had just treated her daughter-in-law with the minimum fair decency, she would have all
00:35:07that money in her pocket right now.
00:35:09This should have been mine.
00:35:11It was all supposed to be mine.
00:35:15You didn't speak a single word in Iris' defense today.
00:35:20If you just stood up for your wife, this could have all belonged to you.
00:35:24You're supposed to be my daughter's husband, my grandchild's father.
00:35:29But you just stood there while your crazy mother tormented Iris and put the baby at risk.
00:35:38You are a goddamn coward!
00:35:43Mom, look what you've done.
00:35:45This is all your fault.
00:35:46Dorian, don't be rash.
00:35:49Think about it.
00:35:50If Iris really was filthy rich, why would she need to take out a loan?
00:35:56Why would she need to work three jobs just to pay for the wedding?
00:36:02No, we're getting played.
00:36:05Iris and her father are putting on an act.
00:36:13Oh, stay back!
00:36:15Don't take one more step.
00:36:17What?
00:36:18You're going to beat up an old lady in front of all these witnesses?
00:36:23You stole from me, okay?
00:36:25The thief doesn't get to play the victim.
00:36:29You actually had me there, old man.
00:36:33For a second.
00:36:34I actually thought that you were rich.
00:36:37But look what we have here.
00:36:40A fake Cartelier brooch.
00:36:43It's a fake?
00:36:44Fake as they come.
00:36:46My best friend is Cartelier California's regional manager.
00:36:53You see, Cartelier cheetah brooches have red ruby eyes and black diamond bodies.
00:37:01But yours has white diamonds.
00:37:05It's nothing but a shoddy knockoff.
00:37:08And if this is fake, then all those other luxury gifts are fake as well.
00:37:20Wait, so you're saying the cash, jewelry, even the trust fund, they're all fake?
00:37:25Don't be silly, Dorian.
00:37:26If he really had money, why would he be wearing a fake brooch?
00:37:34That's enough.
00:37:35My best friend Sadie is Cartelier California's regional manager.
00:37:41I'll just give her a call.
00:37:43Tell her to come down here to prove that this is a fake.
00:37:48Sadie, it's me.
00:37:50I have someone here with a blatant fake Cartelier brooch.
00:37:55I need you to come down here to prove that it's a counterfeit.
00:38:06Well, the craftsmanship on this brooch is impeccable, I must say.
00:38:13However, we don't make cheetah brooches with a white diamond.
00:38:18Tessa, this is counterfeit.
00:38:21Tell me where you got it, so that I can trace it back to its source.
00:38:25Where do you think?
00:38:28From Iris' wannabe rich daddy over there.
00:38:33And get this, he also showed up with several million dollars in cash, property, deeds, jewelry.
00:38:41I mean, can you believe this guy?
00:38:44Well, I'll be damned.
00:38:49I can't believe the nerve of them to try and pull a fast one on you like this.
00:38:54I can confidently say that all of this stuff you see here, everything, it's all fake.
00:39:03Fake, you say?
00:39:08Then let's double check.
00:39:26Well, it must be fake to break that easily.
00:39:31Spit it out.
00:39:32Where did you get the counterfeit brooch?
00:39:35Well, ma'am, your brand custom designed it for me.
00:39:40It's worth over two million dollars.
00:39:42Now that you've destroyed my brooch, how do you plan on compensating me for it?
00:39:48Wow, grandpa's gone off his rocker.
00:39:52You're just some broke old geezer wearing fake jewelry.
00:39:56What are you talking about, compensation?
00:39:59Let's face facts.
00:40:00I caught you wearing a knockoff of our brand and parading around here with all this fake currency.
00:40:08See, I'm going to call headquarters to report you, and then I'm calling the police.
00:40:14Our CEO, Mr. Holland, is the richest man in the city.
00:40:17You cross him, and you're dead.
00:40:21Who's Mr. Holland again?
00:40:23Sir, Mr. Holland is the one who gifted you the brooch this morning.
00:40:27Give me a break.
00:40:29Mr. Holland is our CEO.
00:40:32He would never in a million years give you such a precious gift, you brooch old geezer.
00:40:39Who do you think you are?
00:40:42The richest fucking man on earth?
00:40:46You think you can fake it until you make it?
00:40:50I am going to call headquarters to report you, and then I'm going to call the police.
00:40:56You can rot in jail for selling counterfeit goods.
00:41:00Tessa, dear, please keep an eye on them for me, will you?
00:41:04We cannot let this family of swindlers escape.
00:41:07They deserve to spend the rest of their lives behind bars.
00:41:14The $10 million cash.
00:41:17The $200 million trust fund.
00:41:20All fakes.
00:41:22The jig is up.
00:41:24You're nothing but a couple of low-class crooks.
00:41:28You know what?
00:41:29It's one thing to buy counterfeit goods, but forging currency is a federal offense.
00:41:38I just can't wait for you to waste away in prison with your loser daddy.
00:41:47I just can't wait for you to waste away in prison with your loser daddy.
00:41:56Yeah, yeah, you're totally right.
00:41:58Just because you say it's fake definitely means it's fake.
00:42:04Dorian, see?
00:42:06This is the woman that you married.
00:42:09Nothing but a cheap scammer who teams up with her father to trick us with shoddy fakes.
00:42:18And now that the cat's out of the bag, they're not even denying it.
00:42:23So this is the real you, Iris?
00:42:25A woman who enlists her father to try and scam her own husband?
00:42:28You never loved me at all, did you?
00:42:30I bet you orchestrated this whole charade just to get your hands on my money.
00:42:34Wait, you disgust me, Iris.
00:42:38No, Dorian, you disgust me.
00:42:40God, how did I even end up with a complete fucking idiot?
00:42:44How dare you talk about my son that way?
00:42:48I can't wait until the cops show up and throw your sorry ass in jail.
00:42:54Okay, well, don't get ahead of yourself.
00:42:56When the cops get here, they're going to ask you to compensate for the bruise that you destroyed.
00:43:01And when they do, don't come begging us for mercy.
00:43:07Iris, I believed you back then.
00:43:09I thought you left your family because you loved me.
00:43:12Turns out, you're actually just a shameless fraud this whole time.
00:43:15Dorian, can you just, please, just use your freaking brain for once.
00:43:20You do not have anything that is worth stealing in the first place.
00:43:25I was the one that covered all of our household bills and expenses.
00:43:28I was the one that covered our mortgage and our car, everything.
00:43:33Iris, you know what?
00:43:34I'm done.
00:43:35I am tired and I am exhausted and I really do not want to deal with you right now.
00:43:43And so, actually, you know what?
00:43:44Starting today, Dorian, you mean nothing to me and to my child.
00:43:52Let's go, Dad.
00:43:53Hey!
00:43:54Stop right there!
00:43:56You can get divorced, but this baby belongs to our family and it's not going anywhere.
00:44:03You out of your mind, let me go!
00:44:05Ah!
00:44:07Iris!
00:44:15Iris!
00:44:41If anything happens to my daughter,
00:44:46you'd better believe I'll send you both to hell!
00:44:50You think threats from a down-and-out scammer like you scares us?
00:44:55Plus, your daughter's the one who lost her footing.
00:44:57I swear, if that baby doesn't make it out of there alive, I will make sure that your daughter doesn't
00:45:06either.
00:45:11Iris, stay with me.
00:45:13Iris, the baby is almost here.
00:45:15I need one big push.
00:45:16Iris, let's go.
00:45:23Why is she so quiet?
00:45:27Why can't I hear her cry?
00:45:39The baby's heartbeat is stopped.
00:45:41We need to focus on stabilizing the mother.
00:45:45Oh, no, my baby.
00:45:47Oh, please don't leave me.
00:46:03Please, God, please save my baby.
00:46:07Mom is here.
00:46:09Come back, my baby.
00:46:16You just got my daughter sent to the ICU.
00:46:20I have no mind to kill you right now.
00:46:23What?
00:46:24Stay back.
00:46:25What are you going to do?
00:46:27Hit me in front of my son?
00:46:31Stay away from my mom.
00:46:32The reason the baby is fighting for its life in the ICU is because Iris was acting all crazy.
00:46:47The baby's heart has started again.
00:46:50It's a miracle.
00:46:52She's alive.
00:46:53Quick, go save the baby.
00:46:56She's okay.
00:46:57She's alive.
00:47:00You heartless monster.
00:47:01Your wife and child are in the brink of death in the ICU, and instead of worrying about them, you're
00:47:06defending your piece of shit.
00:47:07Mom, what if the baby really dies because of this?
00:47:12Do you not have even the slightest remorse?
00:47:15I'll be happy if the baby dies.
00:47:20Did you just say?
00:47:23That baby would end up just like its mom, another greedy, lying con artist.
00:47:27Better to just not have it in the first place.
00:47:40I hate to break it to you, but while you were praying for my daughter's downfall, our baby's death, God
00:47:48sent her back to me.
00:47:50She survived.
00:47:54And after today, you will never see her again.
00:47:59Iris, thank God.
00:48:01How are you feeling?
00:48:02I'm all right.
00:48:06She almost just made it, but she's a fighter.
00:48:10She helped out.
00:48:14That baby belongs to the Bates family.
00:48:19If my son hadn't been working his ass off to support your pathetic, broke ass, you wouldn't have even been
00:48:27able to afford a basic hospital.
00:48:30Well, go ahead.
00:48:33Divorce my son.
00:48:35But that baby is not going anywhere with you.
00:48:39Like it or not, that thing is coming home with us.
00:48:49What are you doing?
00:48:59You almost killed my baby, and you were trying to take her from me over my dead body.
00:49:07Iris, Iris, calm down.
00:49:09Get off of her, Iris.
00:49:10You're acting like a fucking lunatic.
00:49:14My mom's right.
00:49:15You're not fit to raise my child.
00:49:17With a violent abuser for a mother, the only place this kid's going to end up is juvie.
00:49:21Iris, you can go wherever you want, but you're leaving the baby with us.
00:49:24I'll consider it compensation for surviving three years of marriage to a broke, scamming psycho like you.
00:49:31My baby is a human being.
00:49:33She is not an object for you to bargain over.
00:49:38Dorian Mates, marrying you is the biggest mistake of my entire life, and I get it.
00:49:44I get what you're doing.
00:49:46You think because I am poor that I am easy to push over.
00:49:51You have no idea who you are messing with.
00:49:57That brooch that my father has is worth more than you could ever make in ten lifetimes.
00:50:10Are you still trying to pass for some hot shot with that plastic fake brooch?
00:50:18You are nothing but a destitute, blood-sucking leech.
00:50:24Actually, it's embarrassing how shameless you are.
00:50:27If I hadn't seen through your facade, you and your fraudster father would still be bleeding my son dry as
00:50:37we speak.
00:50:38Don't worry, baby.
00:50:40Mommy's got it under control.
00:50:43This family makes me sick.
00:50:45They are not going anywhere with that baby.
00:50:51The only place that these cheap fuckers are going is prison.
00:50:57Stay strong, Iris.
00:50:58I can't let them have my baby.
00:51:00The only place that these cheap fuckers are going is prison.
00:51:08Eric, collect all the broken pieces of the brooch and assess the damages.
00:51:21You hopeless fools.
00:51:23The CEO of the Cartelier made this custom for the chairman of the Aster Dominion.
00:51:28It's the only one of its kind in the world.
00:51:30You know what that means, right?
00:51:32You're going to be repaying this debt for the rest of your lives.
00:51:35The Aster Dominion?
00:51:36That's the world's number one financial conglomerate.
00:51:39They're worth over 700 billion on the stock market.
00:51:42Isn't there Chairman Alagaster?
00:51:44The richest man in the world?
00:51:46Wait, and his daughter's name is Iris, too.
00:51:49That must be her.
00:51:50That's Iris Aster, the Aster Iris.
00:51:56Are you really part of the Aster Dominion?
00:51:58I'm not just part of it.
00:52:01My father's the chairman of the Aster Dominion, and I am his sole heir.
00:52:05And my baby will be my successor.
00:52:09I didn't tell you who I was because I gave up all of it to be with you.
00:52:15And I recently got back in contact with my father to tell him the good news about the baby.
00:52:20I was planning on telling you about my family background, but now I'm glad I didn't, because you turned out
00:52:28to be a total piece of shit.
00:52:31Dorian, you are not worthy of being my husband, let alone the father of my child.
00:52:38Oh, come on.
00:52:40The fake goods were bad enough, but now you're trying to impersonate the world's richest family?
00:52:47It just keeps getting better and better.
00:52:49So because your tiny little brain can't wrap around this fact, it's fake.
00:52:56So because your tiny little brain can't wrap around this fact, it's fake.
00:53:02Fine.
00:53:03Believe what you want.
00:53:05You're really full of shit.
00:53:08If you really were the world's richest heiress, why would you leave your fortune behind to marry my son?
00:53:17And for such an important occasion, wouldn't the hospital be swarming with gifts?
00:53:22I don't see any A-list celebrities coming here to celebrate the birth of your heir.
00:53:28All that you need to know is that my baby is coming home with me.
00:53:32And that if either of you try to do anything, I will make sure that you both rot in hell.
00:53:41Mr. Holland, you spent $8 million on this tiara to win the Sotheby's bid ten years ago.
00:53:47Are you sure you want to give it away?
00:53:50Hurry.
00:53:50I need to get the Paltrowed Ciara from the vault.
00:53:53I need it delivered to Miss Astra ASAP.
00:53:55You're giving that away?
00:53:57If we pull this off, we could have a partnership with THE Aster Dominion.
00:54:01We're talking billions, Jessica!
00:54:04Billions!
00:54:05You've still got a lot to learn, Jessica.
00:54:07This is Irish Aster we're talking about.
00:54:09THE heiress to the Aster Dominion.
00:54:12I only found out yesterday she was giving birth.
00:54:14All that matters is that we get this gift delivered to her on time.
00:54:22Sir?
00:54:23Someone's claiming to have found a counterfeit cheetah brooch.
00:54:27I hate it when people bother me with this petty crap.
00:54:29This is what I have a team of lawyers for.
00:54:32Step on it!
00:54:32I need to be the first one to deliver Miss Astra a baby gift.
00:54:36No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
00:54:38You're just a...
00:54:39A filthy skank.
00:54:41You're not even fit to shine my shoes.
00:54:44And you think you can make me burn in hell?
00:54:46Oh, no!
00:54:48Enough of your bullshit!
00:54:50I'm gonna teach you a lesson now!
00:54:53No!
00:55:19You've got some nerve trying to mess
00:55:21with the Bates family.
00:55:24But guess what?
00:55:26It's not going to work.
00:55:28Come on down.
00:55:29Come on, Dorian.
00:55:30Come on down.
00:55:32Rip up this fake monopoly money.
00:55:35Show them what happens when you mess with the Bates family.
00:55:40Dorian, I will give you one final warning.
00:55:45Don't join your mother's temper tantrum.
00:55:48If you do, I promise it will be the end of you.
00:55:54Bullshit.
00:55:55Your empty threats don't scare us.
00:55:59Don't let that bitch deceive you.
00:56:02And don't tear up the cash right now.
00:56:06She's just going to keep scamming me.
00:56:10Come on.
00:56:11Listen to mommy.
00:56:13Tear it up.
00:56:14Rip it up.
00:56:15Come on.
00:56:16Do it.
00:56:18Rip it up.
00:56:23Come on, rip it up.
00:56:25Dorian, wake up.
00:56:27If you don't, your mom's going to be the death of you.
00:56:30Shut the fuck up.
00:56:31My mom's the only person who's ever loved me for me.
00:56:34She'd never do anything to hurt me.
00:56:35You're just trying to turn me against her.
00:56:44That's what happens when you fuck with the Bates family.
00:56:49Remember, Iris, you brought this on yourself.
00:56:51I just wanted you to save a little money, but you and your dad had to orchestrate this crazy
00:56:55plan to try and scam me?
00:56:56Now you're living with the consequences.
00:56:58Exactly.
00:57:00My son is an absolute catch.
00:57:03A real 10 out of 10.
00:57:04And what do you do?
00:57:06You try to scam him with all those fake goods?
00:57:09You should have been grateful to have a husband like Dorian.
00:57:14I've had enough of your games, Iris.
00:57:17Let's get divorced.
00:57:19Hear that?
00:57:20He wants out.
00:57:22Divorce him.
00:57:23And get the hell away from the Bates family.
00:57:26As you wish.
00:57:27But it's the defendants in this case.
00:57:29Are you prepared to rot in jail for the rest of your lives?
00:57:35Are you prepared to rot in jail for the rest of your lives?
00:57:39Defendants?
00:57:40What are you talking about?
00:57:41Defendants?
00:57:42What the hell kind of scheme are you cooking up now?
00:57:45I'm suing the both of you.
00:57:47For defamation, for destruction of personal property, and for attempted murder.
00:57:51You're suing us?
00:57:53Your scammer dad is trying to distribute counterfeit goods?
00:57:58And we should be suing you.
00:58:00Iris, we were married for three years.
00:58:03We have a child.
00:58:04Do you really want to drag me to court?
00:58:06You really have the nerve to talk about our child.
00:58:08When you sat there while your mother abused me and almost let the baby die.
00:58:13Don't try to push the blame onto my mom.
00:58:15Yeah, she might have a unique way of showing her love for me, but at least she loves me.
00:58:19You're the one who started all this.
00:58:20You insulted her first.
00:58:22Forget it.
00:58:23I'm not going to waste my breath on a vile woman like you.
00:58:27We're getting divorced.
00:58:28Now.
00:58:31I've been waiting for this day to come.
00:58:36Sign an Instagram.
00:58:37I don't ever want to see you again.
00:58:41You know, you really are as dumb as it gets.
00:58:44Did you even think about the consequences that you would face if these gifts were real?
00:58:53Did you even think about the consequences that you would face if these gifts were real?
00:58:58Pfft.
00:59:00That's impossible.
00:59:01That's impossible.
00:59:02It's impossible that they're not fake.
00:59:04Playtime's over, bitch.
00:59:06Dorian already told you to beat it.
00:59:08Now quit stalling and sign the damn divorce papers.
00:59:12The Bates family wants nothing to do with you.
00:59:14I will sign the papers, but you have to give me back what's mine.
00:59:19Give me back what's yours?
00:59:21We have nothing of yours.
00:59:23And not to mention that you've been on unpaid maternity leave for the past two weeks.
00:59:29And Dorian has been covering everything.
00:59:33I already told you, your money and your baby belong to the Bates family.
00:59:42So if you want to leave, you leave with nothing.
00:59:48So, Dorian, you already know what your wonderful mother thinks of me.
00:59:53What about you?
00:59:54I'm with her.
00:59:55She's only ever done what's best for me.
00:59:56What's best for you is ruining your chance of becoming a billionaire and turning you into
01:00:02a bank-ropped criminal.
01:00:06Shut up, you old fraud.
01:00:09I was tired of you like two hours ago.
01:00:12And you don't even think about trying to get a penny out of Dorian.
01:00:18Iris, you married me with nothing.
01:00:20Now you're leaving with nothing.
01:00:21Isn't that exactly how it should be?
01:00:23Stop painting yourself as a victim.
01:00:25Three years ago, I gave you an emerald ring.
01:00:28I want it back, nothing else.
01:00:31An emerald ring?
01:00:35Iris, you gave him that ring?
01:00:38It's the only thing your mother left behind when she passed.
01:00:42You wasted three years of love on this asshole.
01:00:49But after today, I know you'll never let that happen again.
01:00:54You've grown up, Iris.
01:00:58Why does the emerald on this ring look so fake?
01:01:02Just give it back to me, and I will sign the divorce papers.
01:01:05We will have a clean break.
01:01:07Fine, whatever.
01:01:08Wait!
01:01:10You gave this ring to my son, which makes it Bates' family property.
01:01:15There's no way we're giving it back to you.
01:01:18Please, Dorian, this is my only request.
01:01:20If you give me back the ring, they'll not only sign the divorce papers, I will pay off the mortgage
01:01:24and the car.
01:01:27Please, this is the last thing my mother left.
01:01:34What are you doing?
01:01:35What do you think I'm doing?
01:01:37This is my son's ring, so I will do whatever the hell I want to with it.
01:01:46No!
01:01:50Oh, look at you!
01:01:55Going so crazy over this dumb ring.
01:01:58Isn't it just a cheap glass ring?
01:02:01I wouldn't be caught dead wearing it.
01:02:04Only a broke, ignorant skank like you would turn this piece of trash into a rare kind of treasure.
01:02:13I said just give it back!
01:02:15Oh!
01:02:16Look at you!
01:02:17With all this going crazy, you'd think it was the real deal.
01:02:21I said, give it back.
01:02:24Stay back.
01:02:26Take one more step, and I will smash it to the ground.
01:02:32And I will smash it to the ground.
01:02:35I will smash it to the ground.
01:02:38Dorian, I have done so much for you.
01:02:41I paid for the mortgage, and I supported you with your business.
01:02:45When have I ever done you wrong?
01:02:48What more can you ask of me?
01:02:51Quit the whining.
01:02:53You sound like nails on a chalkboard.
01:02:55What?
01:02:55It's just like a stupid old ring, all right?
01:02:58It is not a stupid old ring.
01:03:00It is an Aster family heirloom.
01:03:02And it is the last thing that my mother left me.
01:03:05And it is absolutely priceless.
01:03:10Fine.
01:03:11Mom, just give it back.
01:03:13It says a lot about the type of person she is,
01:03:14that she's willing to go this far over some trashy ring.
01:03:17Get the ring!
01:03:18And be careful with it!
01:03:28Give something to the Bates family, and you're not getting it back.
01:03:41I swear to God, you're pure evil.
01:03:45All you've been doing since the second you got here is abuse and humiliate Iris.
01:03:51You.
01:03:53Hopeless.
01:03:55Cowardly.
01:03:56Shit for brains, mama's boy.
01:03:58I bet your mommy still wipes your ass every time you go potty.
01:04:04Now look what you've done.
01:04:05You've destroyed her mother's family heirloom.
01:04:08You're monsters in human form.
01:04:12Absolutely disgusting film.
01:04:16You shut the fuck up.
01:04:19One more word out of you, and I'm gonna make you get on all fours, lick my shoes, and beg
01:04:23for forgiveness.
01:04:24Oh!
01:04:27Did you just hit me?
01:04:29Nobody hits me!
01:04:31Oh!
01:04:33You wanna go, grandpa?
01:04:35Let's go!
01:04:37Hands off my mom, Iris!
01:04:40Oh!
01:04:41Baby!
01:04:42You were a scumbag!
01:04:44You destroyed the only thing that my mother gave me.
01:04:46And I swear on her name, that I will make you both pay!
01:04:51I am calling the cops.
01:04:55You two are getting locked up.
01:05:09Mr. Astor.
01:05:16Mr. Astor.
01:05:17It's an honor.
01:05:18I'm Byron Holland, CEO of Cartel Year.
01:05:21I sent over the cheater brooch earlier this morning.
01:05:24Appreciate it.
01:05:26That's the CEO of Cartel Year.
01:05:28I've seen him on magazine covers before.
01:05:31Wow, he treated my girl's father with such respect.
01:05:34Who is he?
01:05:35If I had to guess, he's the chairman of the Astor Dominion.
01:05:38The richest man on the planet.
01:05:40Oh my god, that tiara is shining.
01:05:42Mr. Astor.
01:05:44I heard your daughter had a gay birth today.
01:05:46I prepared a small gift to celebrate.
01:05:48Oh, thank you.
01:05:49That's very nice.
01:05:50But really, there's no need.
01:05:52Oh no!
01:05:53He just turned down Mr. Holland in front of everyone?
01:05:56That tiara doesn't look fake to me.
01:05:58What if Iris and her dad are actually the real deal?
01:06:01No, that's impossible.
01:06:03There's no way a bottom feeder like her would be the world's richest heiress.
01:06:09Think about it, Dorian.
01:06:10Why would a rich heiress leave everything behind and work three jobs just to marry a regular guy like you?
01:06:17That tiara must be a fake.
01:06:19Don't fall for it, Dorian.
01:06:21What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:24What kind of nonsense is that?
01:06:28And a CEO, please!
01:06:31More like a deadbeat actor they hired off the street.
01:06:35Mom, you really think they're faking it?
01:06:38Of course they are, Dorian.
01:06:41Look, you're lucky that you're divorcing her.
01:06:44Not only did she show up with all those knockoff goods,
01:06:47she brought in a group of cheap actors to back her up.
01:06:52Are you kidding me?
01:06:53This is the Baltimore tiara.
01:06:55I dropped eight million at Sotheby's on it.
01:06:58And I have the certificate to prove it.
01:06:59Oh, yeah.
01:07:00And how do we know the certificate's not fake?
01:07:04I mean, if you can forge currency and impersonate the CEO of Cartelier,
01:07:11faking a paper's nothing.
01:07:13You're insane.
01:07:14Everything you say is nonsense.
01:07:16I'm insane?
01:07:19You're the one pissing me off.
01:07:21I'm gonna fuck you up.
01:07:32I'm gonna fuck you up.
01:07:33You crazy old bitch!
01:07:35I'm gonna kill you!
01:07:38Dorian!
01:07:39Baby!
01:07:40Did you see what they did here, Mommy?
01:07:42Your ex-wife hired those gangsters to kill me!
01:07:47I'm gonna call the cops!
01:07:48I'm gonna get you all arrested!
01:07:51Go find the best show you can!
01:07:53We need to get that tiara fixed now!
01:07:55Y-yes, sir.
01:07:58They can't be repaired?
01:08:00I'm gonna make you regret it!
01:08:05You can't just hit her like that! That's assault!
01:08:07You people are the real criminals!
01:08:09Here we go again.
01:08:10You're just like your mom.
01:08:12Always pointing fingers, never owning up to anything.
01:08:16Nothing but dead weight!
01:08:19Your mom just trashed someone else's property,
01:08:22and you're calling him the criminal for standing up for himself!
01:08:26Mr. Holland!
01:08:27What brings you here?
01:08:29You know her?
01:08:31No, no, of course not!
01:08:33You may not remember me, but I'm Sadie Smith,
01:08:36Regional Manager for Cartelier's California branch.
01:08:39In fact, that whole cheetah brooch scandal,
01:08:41I was the one that called it into headquarters.
01:08:44I couldn't have known it was gonna cause such a fuss,
01:08:46much less bring you here in person!
01:08:48Cheetah brooch you talk about?
01:08:51Where is it? Let me take a look!
01:08:54Where is it? Let me take a look!
01:08:56Yes, absolutely!
01:08:58You! You there with the fake brooch!
01:09:00Show it to Mr. Holland immediately!
01:09:02Oh, that fake brooch!
01:09:06Mr. Holland gave it to me himself.
01:09:08Why did you ask him if it's real or not?
01:09:12Mr. Holland, the CEO of Cartelier.
01:09:16Tessa, everything you see is fake.
01:09:20Why don't we double check?
01:09:23It must have been fake for it to break so easily.
01:09:27Seriously?
01:09:28You're gonna keep making stuff up
01:09:30when the CEO is standing right here in front of you?
01:09:33Sir, please don't take it personally
01:09:35that men like him can't afford the real thing,
01:09:38so they masquerade in fakes.
01:09:40Frankly, I think it damages our image.
01:09:42I have a friend who's a journalist at CBS.
01:09:45If you'd like, I could put in a call to her
01:09:47so that she can bring this whole scandal to the news media.
01:09:50You wanna take this to the media?
01:09:54You wanna bring the media in on this?
01:09:56Of course!
01:09:57I think it would be best to protect our image.
01:09:59Or it will ruin the company.
01:10:01Fucking idiots!
01:10:02Mr. Holland! Why would you do that?
01:10:05I was just trying to protect the company!
01:10:07Because you deserved it!
01:10:09Mr. Holland!
01:10:12You arrogant asshole!
01:10:15Who the fuck do you think you are hitting my friend like that?
01:10:19Do you even know who she is?
01:10:21This is Sadie Smith,
01:10:24Regional Manager of Cartelier, California.
01:10:29She's your friend?
01:10:32She's your friend?
01:10:34No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:10:38Babe!
01:10:40You gotta back me up on this!
01:10:42All I did was crush that cheap-ass tiara
01:10:46to prove that it was fake!
01:10:48And now everyone's lashing out at me!
01:10:50The hippie! Call the cops!
01:10:52I want everything documented!
01:10:54I'm suing all of them!
01:10:56You smashed the tiara?
01:10:58Yes!
01:10:59You idiot!
01:11:00This is our CEO of Cartelier, Mr. Holland!
01:11:05Apologize to him right now!
01:11:07He's Mr. Holland.
01:11:09I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:14I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:18I just slapped the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:18You didn't just hit me.
01:11:20You destroyed the gift I brought from this virus.
01:11:23It's not just any tiara.
01:11:25It's not just any tiara.
01:11:26It's a Baltimore tiara.
01:11:27A cultural relic.
01:11:29I paid millions for at Sotheby's.
01:11:32The highest bid.
01:11:34Something you would never afford.
01:11:35Even if you sold everything you own.
01:11:37If you're the CEO of Cartelier.
01:11:40And you brought a present?
01:11:43For Iris Aster?
01:11:46No way!
01:11:47You morons.
01:11:49You two still don't understand.
01:11:51That man that you mocked for wearing a fake brooch?
01:11:55Is Alec Aster.
01:11:57Chairman of the Aster Dominion.
01:12:00The richest man on earth.
01:12:03With a net worth of over 700 billion.
01:12:07And this is Miss Iris Aster.
01:12:10His only daughter.
01:12:12Sole hair to his entire empire.
01:12:15Mr. Aster.
01:12:16You're the world's richest man.
01:12:17That means I could have been son-in-law
01:12:20The wealthiest man in the world.
01:12:21I would have this whole fortune.
01:12:23It could be mine.
01:12:27So this bitch really is the world's richest heirs?
01:12:31Damn it.
01:12:32If this keeps going.
01:12:34I'll lose Dorian.
01:12:35And everything I've got.
01:12:38Dorian.
01:12:39Don't listen to her.
01:12:40Iris lied to you for years about who she really was.
01:12:43She's a manipulative bitch.
01:12:45Even if you two stay married.
01:12:47Do you think she'd even give you a cent?
01:12:51Say one more word about my daughter and I'll rip your tongue out.
01:12:55I just...
01:12:58Iris.
01:12:59What do you want to do about this?
01:13:01These two have done enough to lose everything they've ever owned.
01:13:05And spend the rest of their lives in prison.
01:13:16Please.
01:13:18Please.
01:13:18We're family, right?
01:13:21I promise.
01:13:23Dorian and I didn't really mean to hurt you.
01:13:26We didn't actually know who you were.
01:13:28After three years together.
01:13:29Do you think you can find it in your heart to just let this go?
01:13:35How dare you get tripped.
01:13:38Miss Astor.
01:13:39Didn't you say that you hated me?
01:13:41That you never wanted to see me again?
01:13:46Iris.
01:13:47Iris.
01:13:48Iris.
01:13:49This is all my fault.
01:13:51I know I messed up and I'm sorry.
01:13:52Really.
01:13:53You used to love me.
01:13:54Doesn't that still mean anything?
01:13:56Are you really gonna let me go to jail?
01:13:58Or put our daughter?
01:13:59She needs to see your dad.
01:14:01I swear.
01:14:01I will never listen to another word my mom says.
01:14:05From now on, I will only listen to you.
01:14:08You almost got our baby killed because you couldn't stand up to your own mother.
01:14:12And you have the nerve to ask that of me?
01:14:15You're a bastard, Dorian.
01:14:19We're done.
01:14:22Marrying you was the worst mistake that I ever made in my entire life.
01:14:34You know your stupidity cost you every single cent you could have got from the Astor fortune.
01:14:40Dad, we'll let the lawyers and the cops handle the rest of this.
01:14:43I want every single cent reimbursed from the tiara.
01:14:47As for Dorian, I won't be pressing charges.
01:14:50For the child's sake.
01:14:51But he will be spending the rest of his life paying back the debt that he owes.
01:14:55As for Tessa, if she can't pay back the money that she owes,
01:14:59She knows that she will spend the rest of her life rotting in jail.
01:15:03What she deserves for trying to kill my child.
01:15:07Please, Iris.
01:15:09Officers, we'll let you take it from here.
01:15:11No, no, no!
01:15:13No!
01:15:14No!
01:15:15No!
01:15:15No!
01:15:21Iris, congrats on making it out of hell.
01:15:25Let's go home.
01:15:28Thank you all for coming.
01:15:30I've called this meeting to share some good news.
01:15:33As of today, Iris Aster, rightful heir to the Astor Dominion, has officially returned.
01:15:50Thank you all for the warm welcome.
01:15:52Starting today, I will be stepping in as the new CEO for the Astor Dominion.
01:15:57So, can we start our first meeting?
01:16:10These fucking assholes, don't they know I was the son-in-law of the world's richest man?
01:16:17Yesterday, Iris Aster, the newly appointed CEO of the Astor Dominion, celebrated her daughter's first birthday, renting out the entire
01:16:25four seasons in Beverly Hills.
01:16:26Cameras spotted Miss Aster in fully head-to-toe designer with her baby Ivy in her arms.
01:16:32The young heiress is set to inherit one of the world's largest private fortunes.
01:16:37Wait.
01:16:38Why didn't I think of this sooner?
01:16:41You're worse or not, I'm still Ivy's dad.
01:16:52Hello.
01:16:54Some of you may have heard of Iris Aster, the new CEO of the Astor Dominion.
01:16:59I'm her ex-husband.
01:17:05Miss Aster, you need to see this.
01:17:08What?
01:17:09It's her ex-husband, live, spreading rumours about you.
01:17:12We're married for three years.
01:17:16But in the end, she and her billionaire father, Alec Aster, kicked me out just because I wasn't rich enough.
01:17:22And the worst part is, they've taken our daughter Ivy.
01:17:27This is outrageous.
01:17:29I cut Dorian some slack because he's Ivy's father and this is how he repaid me? By slandering me online?
01:17:34It's spreading fast.
01:17:36Miss Aster, people are calling for a boycott.
01:17:37And now our company's stock just dropped by 8%.
01:17:50I never thought it'd end up like this.
01:17:52Iris and her father, they've used their power to ruin my life.
01:17:56They took my daughter away before I even got to hold her.
01:18:00And now, they're forcing me to pay hundreds of millions in debt I can't afford.
01:18:06They even had my mom thrown in prison.
01:18:09I'm not doing this to hurt anybody.
01:18:11I just want to see my little girl again.
01:18:13I don't have any power.
01:18:14I don't have money.
01:18:16All I can do is speak the truth and hope somebody out there hears me.
01:18:22Please, help me get my daughter back.
01:18:25Miss Aster, Fords are furious.
01:18:27They're demanding you to fix this immediately.
01:18:34What the hell do you want?
01:18:37What the hell do you want?
01:18:39Come on, Iris.
01:18:40We were married for three years.
01:18:42Don't act like I'm some stranger now.
01:18:44I know you still care.
01:18:45I just, uh, I don't want Ivy growing up without her dad.
01:18:48All right?
01:18:49I promise.
01:18:50This time, I'll do whatever you say.
01:18:51I won't listen to anyone else.
01:18:53Dorian, I cut you some slack and this is how you repaid me?
01:18:55This isn't a threat, Iris.
01:18:57I'm doing this because I love you.
01:18:59If you're willing to take me back, marry me again, then I'll take the videos down.
01:19:02Shut down all the rumors.
01:19:04I swear, your stock won't drop another cent.
01:19:07Wow.
01:19:08You know, you just burned the last bit of mercy that I had left for you.
01:19:12Fine.
01:19:13I will see you in court.
01:19:15I'm gonna make sure the entire world knows exactly who you are.
01:19:21Ungrateful bitch.
01:19:22I'm still Ivy's biological father.
01:19:27You had your chance, Iris.
01:19:30Now, I'm gonna destroy you.
01:19:33Eric, I need you to go get a lawyer.
01:19:35I'm gonna be suing Dorian for defamation and for federal securities laws.
01:19:39Misaster.
01:19:40You will win in court, no doubt.
01:19:42The damage to your reputation, I don't think it can be undone.
01:19:46Wait.
01:19:47What if we take him on one of those reality courtroom shows?
01:19:50We lay it all out there for the whole country to see.
01:19:53We'll set the record straight.
01:19:55I like that idea.
01:19:56And if we're gonna do this, we're gonna make sure we do it so the whole world sees exactly who
01:19:59he is.
01:20:00And we are not gonna hold back.
01:20:09Plaintiff Dorian Bates, you are suing Iris Aster for deprivation of custody of your daughter Ivy Aster.
01:20:15You want to modify the custody agreement.
01:20:17Is that correct, sir?
01:20:18Yes, your honor.
01:20:20She took my daughter away on the basis of having a wealthier family.
01:20:23And now, she's forcing me to pay back a hundred million dollars in debt.
01:20:31Order in the court, this is not a talk show.
01:20:35Defendant, do you have any evidence to counter his claims?
01:20:38Thank you, your honor.
01:20:41Mr. Bates is lying.
01:20:42I have here the divorce agreement that he forced me to sign the day that I gave birth.
01:20:47He left me in Ivy.
01:20:49I believe that a father who files for divorce the same day that their daughter enters this world does not
01:20:54deserve any custody.
01:20:56I believe that a father who files for divorce the same day that their daughter enters this world does not
01:21:02deserve any custody.
01:21:03Only because she lied to me first, your honor.
01:21:06She hid her real identity and pretended to be from a poor family.
01:21:10If I'd known she was the heiress to the wealthiest family in the world, I never would have left.
01:21:14So her saying it's perfectly fine to divorce your wife if she's poor.
01:21:18No, no, your honor, that's not what I'm saying.
01:21:22As for the debt, Miss Aster, can you provide any evidence in your defense?
01:21:26Yes, your honor.
01:21:28My father brought gifts for my daughter the day that I gave birth to her worth over a hundred million
01:21:33dollars.
01:21:34As you can see here, my ex-husband and his mother, they destroyed absolutely everything.
01:21:40Show them what it means to fuck with the Bates family.
01:21:45I simply want compensation in a fair and legal manner.
01:21:48Wow, this guy's shameless.
01:21:50He asked for a divorce the day his wife gave birth, trashed all his daughter's gifts,
01:21:55and now he has the audacity to blame her for causing all this mess.
01:21:58The way they treated her, it's a miracle she didn't lose the baby.
01:22:01Honestly, the Aster heiress is smart not to let him have custody.
01:22:05He's not a father, he's a selfish leech who only cares about money.
01:22:11He's not a father, he's a selfish leech who only cares about money.
01:22:15What the hell do you two know?
01:22:17This is clearly all her fault.
01:22:18If she told me her real identity earlier, none of this would have happened.
01:22:21I tried to tell you at the hospital, but you didn't listen and suddenly this is my fault now.
01:22:25I... you're...
01:22:27Warner?
01:22:28Mr. Bates, I've heard more than enough to back the defendant's claims.
01:22:33If all you've got are excuses and attitude, I'm ready to make my ruling.
01:22:37Your Honor, please.
01:22:38I'm still Ivy's biological father, doesn't her opinion matter?
01:22:41Just trust her.
01:22:42Let's see, she loves me more than anyone.
01:22:43Come on.
01:22:46Oh, there we go.
01:22:49What?
01:22:54Biological dad or not, she's scared out of her mind.
01:22:57That guy's just a money hungry leech.
01:23:11You're okay, sweetheart.
01:23:13Looks like the future heiress's favorite person is still her mommy.
01:23:17I'm in favor of giving full custody to the mother.
01:23:20A man who uses his own daughter as a pawn for money shouldn't even be a father.
01:23:25I support Ms. Astor.
01:23:28We support Ms. Astor.
01:23:30We support Ms. Astor.
01:23:32We support Ms. Astor.
01:23:34Order.
01:23:35I'll now announce the verdict.
01:23:38Full custody will go to...
01:23:46Full custody will go to...
01:23:50The defendant.
01:23:51Ms. Aris Astor.
01:23:53What?
01:23:53No.
01:23:54This is rigged.
01:23:55She paid you all off.
01:23:56I want an appeal.
01:23:58Either give me my daughter or pay me alimony.
01:24:03Bayless!
01:24:04Hey, stop.
01:24:06Iris!
01:24:07You still haven't paid me any alimony since we got divorced.
01:24:09That's illegal.
01:24:10Did you forget, Dorian?
01:24:11You were the one that forced me to sign the divorce papers.
01:24:14You clearly stated that you wanted nothing to do with my assets or my debt.
01:24:19Any fortune you pushed away is on you.
01:24:21No, that can't be.
01:24:23It can't be like this.
01:24:26I'm refiling for divorce.
01:24:28You can file for whatever you want, Dorian, but I recommend getting a lawyer.
01:24:32I'm suing you for defamation and for violating federal securities laws.
01:24:36Thanks to you, the Astrodominion has lost over $10 billion in market value, which you will pay off in prison.
01:24:42Iris!
01:24:43My baby.
01:24:44Please.
01:24:45Don't do this.
01:24:46It would be heartless to let our daughter grow up without her father.
01:24:48A greedy, selfish father would ruin our daughter.
01:24:54She'd be better off with one.
01:24:56Right, Dorian?
01:24:57That baby would end up just like its mom.
01:25:00Another greedy, lying con artist.
01:25:02Better to just not have it in the first place.
01:25:07Get off me.
01:25:10Everything's going to be different now, Ivy.
01:25:12Mommy karma's a brand new start.
