Full Episode of I Was Your Mother Once
Transcript
00:00:03Eight years. It's been eight long years since I last saw my little Ashley. Today's the day I
00:00:11finally get to see my daughter get married. Happy birthday, sweetheart. Thanks, Mom. Your presents
00:00:20are always my favorite. Anyway, today is Ashley's big day and Mom is here with your favorite gifts.
00:00:33Whoa, lady, stop. Stop. You don't want to try panhanding here and no loitering neither. Do yourself a favor. This
00:00:41is a high-end joint and you clearly don't belong here. So get out before I drag you out.
00:00:49Wait, stop. Hold on a second. Miss Anderson.
00:00:54Ashley.
00:01:01Mom, can we talk over there?
00:01:07What are you doing here? I told you not to come.
00:01:10Well, I, every mother wants to see their little girl walk down the aisle.
00:01:16I brought you some of your favorites from home.
00:01:20This strawberry jam, turkey jerky,
00:01:26and I needed you this scarf.
00:01:31Are you serious right now? What am I supposed to do with all of these?
00:01:34Do you have any idea who I'm marrying?
00:01:36Oh my God, it smells like a barn.
00:01:43Ashley, I can see you don't want me here.
00:01:47Can I just watch?
00:01:49No, Mom.
00:01:50I told everyone that you were traveling abroad and you just couldn't make it.
00:01:55Now you just show up out of the blue.
00:01:56How am I even going to explain that?
00:02:01I'm sorry. I didn't know.
00:02:04I thought it would be a nice surprise.
00:02:08Mom, you work too hard.
00:02:10When I grow up, I will take you to the fanciest restaurant
00:02:14and go on a beach vacation.
00:02:17Thank you, sweetheart.
00:02:19I thought you would be happy to see me.
00:02:23Ashley.
00:02:27Who's this?
00:02:30Uh...
00:02:33This...
00:02:34This is my, um...
00:02:35My Aunt Nancy.
00:02:37She just dropped in.
00:02:39Got it. Welcome.
00:02:41Why don't you just invite your aunt in?
00:02:42Okay, yeah, yeah, of course.
00:02:46Okay, fine.
00:02:48But don't embarrass me.
00:02:50Remember,
00:02:51your Aunt Nancy
00:03:06It's magnificent.
00:03:08My little girl is marrying into a whole other world.
00:03:12I hear she has no family attending the wedding.
00:03:16That's so sucks.
00:03:17They say she comes from poor's.
00:03:19She's probably some country hick
00:03:21who somehow clawed her way
00:03:24into the Anderson family.
00:03:27Well...
00:03:29What are you talking about?
00:03:30Who else?
00:03:32The bride, of course.
00:03:36You can tell by her posture alone
00:03:38that she comes from broke trash.
00:03:40But she acts like she's a goddamn princess.
00:03:42Yeah.
00:03:43Even her mother didn't show up.
00:03:45Either Ashley is ashamed
00:03:48or mom abandoned her.
00:03:50Either way,
00:03:52it's a load plus shit.
00:03:56None of what you're saying is true.
00:03:59Ashley is kind and thoughtful.
00:04:01And she may have a humble background,
00:04:04but she's rich in character.
00:04:07Who are you anyway?
00:04:08You know, usually the janitors
00:04:10don't show up until after the wedding.
00:04:14Look at her clothes.
00:04:16My socks cost more than half the clothes set.
00:04:21Wait, wait.
00:04:23Don't tell me she's related to the bride.
00:04:25That would be...
00:04:26Yikes.
00:04:27As a matter of fact,
00:04:29yes, I'm here for Ashley.
00:04:32Ha!
00:04:32I knew it.
00:04:37I almost feel sorry for Ashley.
00:04:39She worked so hard
00:04:41to hide people like you from us.
00:04:45Little princess must be mortified.
00:04:47You're here.
00:04:51Mortified?
00:04:53What am I doing to embarrass her?
00:04:56And what would you know
00:04:57about my bank account?
00:04:59Oh, my God, lady.
00:05:00Do I really have to spell it out for you?
00:05:02That sad little outfit of yours
00:05:04wouldn't even hit 50 bucks.
00:05:06What the hell is going on in here?
00:05:10You!
00:05:12What the hell is going on in here?
00:05:16You!
00:05:17You just standing there.
00:05:19Get back to work.
00:05:20Setting tables or whatever it is
00:05:21that you people do.
00:05:23I'm having a word with a manager
00:05:25about hiring better staff.
00:05:27Look at you.
00:05:29Filthy.
00:05:30Ma'am, I'm not part of the staff.
00:05:32Please, you don't expect me to believe
00:05:35that you're on my list.
00:05:37Lucy, actually, yes.
00:05:38She's here to support Miss Ashley, apparently.
00:05:41And with you, Lucy,
00:05:42it doesn't look like she belongs here.
00:05:44Shh.
00:05:47Well, someone's obviously mistaken.
00:05:50Because I went through the guest list myself
00:05:53and Ashley never mentioned somebody like her.
00:05:56Well, maybe you missed it.
00:05:58I don't think so.
00:06:01Who are you, really?
00:06:03I think you should leave before I call security.
00:06:07I'm not leaving.
00:06:10I'm here to see Ashley.
00:06:12But Ashley didn't put you on the list, did she?
00:06:17Or are you here hoping for a handout?
00:06:20I mean, these gifts are for the bride and groom.
00:06:23They're not for guests.
00:06:28All I wanted was to be here for Ashley.
00:06:31Fine.
00:06:32If you want to continue with this madness,
00:06:35then you've just pulled this on yourself, haven't you?
00:06:44Lucy, maybe just let it go.
00:06:46It's your son's big day.
00:06:48You shouldn't be getting your hands dirty.
00:06:50No way.
00:06:51That lady deserved it.
00:06:53Somebody had to teach her a lesson.
00:06:55I'm not here to cause trouble.
00:06:58I'm just here for the ceremony
00:07:00and to bring some gifts for the bride.
00:07:04Really?
00:07:04Let's see what delightful little treasures
00:07:08that you've dragged in here.
00:07:13Incredible.
00:07:16Preserves.
00:07:23Dried meat.
00:07:26Oh, and a scarf that smells like the bottom of a stable.
00:07:40Shall I show you what we do with the trash?
00:07:46No!
00:07:47What are you doing?
00:07:49Stop!
00:07:50Somebody help me, please!
00:07:53I told you
00:07:55that I can do what the fuck I love.
00:08:01I'm Ashley!
00:08:04I'm Ashley!
00:08:10It's lying!
00:08:12Ashley's mother is vacationing in Switzerland.
00:08:16Although my daughter-in-law's family
00:08:18may not be at our level,
00:08:20they are very respectable.
00:08:23And what the hell are you?
00:08:25Did she really say that?
00:08:28Of course.
00:08:30Did you really think
00:08:31you could come
00:08:32waltzing in here
00:08:34and ruining my son's wedding?
00:08:37You're not the first
00:08:38freeloading fraud
00:08:40that I've encountered.
00:08:42Don't worry, everyone.
00:08:44This old bag lady,
00:08:46she won't be troubling us much longer.
00:08:49Yeah, kick her ass out.
00:08:51I'm sick of her
00:08:52frumboid little face.
00:09:04Why are you crazy?
00:09:06Are you gonna murder me in public?
00:09:09Why not?
00:09:10Who'd even notice
00:09:11if you were gone?
00:09:18Mother?
00:09:22Mother?
00:09:24Mother?
00:09:27Mother?
00:09:30Ashley, do you know this woman?
00:09:33So why wasn't she on the guest list?
00:09:35That's my...
00:09:38distant relative.
00:09:40Aunt Nancy.
00:09:41Um, she dropped by last minute.
00:09:43Yes, we met her at the entrance.
00:09:47I'm...
00:09:49I'm her Aunt Nancy.
00:09:53Your mother's in Switzerland.
00:09:55That's right, isn't it?
00:09:57Yes, of course.
00:09:59Lying's not going to get you
00:10:00very far in my world.
00:10:02Your niece,
00:10:04my daughter-in-law,
00:10:06isn't going to follow
00:10:08your tall tales.
00:10:11Okay,
00:10:12Auntie?
00:10:23I...
00:10:24I never wanted
00:10:26any of this.
00:10:27I just wanted
00:10:28to see Ashley happy.
00:10:31Happy?
00:10:32With you here?
00:10:36Well...
00:10:40Maybe this will cheer
00:10:43everybody up.
00:10:50Maybe this will cheer
00:10:56everybody up.
00:10:56No, she won't.
00:10:58I hate you.
00:11:00I hate you.
00:11:02I hate you.
00:11:03I hate you,
00:11:09Mother, she really
00:11:11didn't mean to cause a fuss.
00:11:12She just really wanted to see
00:11:13me get married.
00:11:14You're defending this marmalade woman?
00:11:20You know, I call you my daughter-in-law, but it's not official yet.
00:11:26Do you still want to marry my son?
00:11:29Yes, of course, Mother.
00:11:31Good. Then I'll give you one more chance.
00:11:35Sure, Mother. I'll probably now.
00:11:37Nancy, I'm sorry, but you have to...
00:11:40Oh, no, no, no, dear. That's not enough.
00:11:44Go over and slap her in her ugly peasant face.
00:11:50It's that, or you can forget about joining our family.
00:11:54Come on, Ashley. Everything's ready. Stop wasting time.
00:11:58Give her a quick slap and let's move on.
00:12:00Ashley.
00:12:03Look at me.
00:12:06What has happened to you?
00:12:08Look.
00:12:11Look at who I am.
00:12:14Shut up. That's enough.
00:12:16I know who you are.
00:12:19Sorry, Mom.
00:12:20This is my future.
00:12:22You wanted me to have everything.
00:12:25So, you just have to forgive me.
00:12:50I can't believe you'd hit me.
00:12:55Get out.
00:12:56I knew you're her what.
00:13:00You're just some hillbilly distant relative from the middle of nowhere.
00:13:05Well, just look at you.
00:13:07Well, just look at you.
00:13:07That outfit.
00:13:09Standing amongst your betters.
00:13:11If you're not ashamed, we are on your behalf.
00:13:15Amen to that, Mrs. Anderson.
00:13:17You know, if the press catches on to this, it will be all over the feats tomorrow.
00:13:21A total tablert scandal.
00:13:25Ashley.
00:13:26How could you treat me like this after all these years?
00:13:30It's so pathetic.
00:13:33She's still acting like she matters.
00:13:41Say something.
00:13:44Tell them.
00:13:46Tell them who I am.
00:13:50Mom, I...
00:13:52Yes, Ashley.
00:13:53Yes, I'm here.
00:14:03I'm sorry, Mom.
00:14:05I...
00:14:05I can't admit it.
00:14:08I'm getting weary with this charade.
00:14:12Is there going to be a wedding or not?
00:14:14Or should we just cool this whole thing off?
00:14:17Ashley, come on.
00:14:19This is our big day.
00:14:20Are you siding with my mother or this...
00:14:22This vagabond?
00:14:23Do you even want to marry me?
00:14:26Of course.
00:14:28I...
00:14:28I didn't mean that at all.
00:14:33Please, just stop.
00:14:36Just tell them you were wrong.
00:14:37And leave quietly.
00:14:40For me.
00:14:42But what?
00:14:43What did I do wrong?
00:14:45I...
00:14:45I just came to see you get married.
00:14:49She's a persistent little bumpkin.
00:14:51I'll give her that.
00:14:52I guess you have to be persistent to survive out in the wilderness.
00:14:57Okay.
00:14:57Enough.
00:14:58Just go.
00:14:59I don't want you here.
00:15:01Leave now.
00:15:05I'm sorry.
00:15:08I'm just a poor woman from the countryside.
00:15:12I shouldn't have called.
00:15:17Not bad.
00:15:18Well, since you came all this way, all by uninvited, let me offer you some dessert.
00:15:32I bet you've never seen anything quite this exquisite in your whole miserable life.
00:15:39Bon appetit.
00:15:41I don't want you to do it.
00:15:42I don't want you to do it.
00:15:50I don't want you to do it.
00:15:52I don't want you to do it.
00:15:57I don't want you to do it.
00:15:58I don't want you to do it.
00:15:59I don't want you to do it.
00:16:00I don't want you to do it.
00:16:00I don't want you to do it.
00:16:00I don't want you to do it.
00:16:01I don't want you to do it.
00:16:01I don't want you to do it.
00:16:01I don't want you to do it.
00:16:02I don't want you to do it.
00:16:03I don't want you to do it.
00:16:05I don't want you to do it.
00:16:07I don't want you to do it.
00:16:16Oh, another pear tainted.
00:16:27All right, now get out before you taint this wedding any further.
00:16:35All right, I'll go.
00:16:41Congratulations, Ashley.
00:16:44I hope you have a happy marriage.
00:16:47Of course she'll be happy.
00:16:49She's marrying my son.
00:16:51How could she not?
00:16:54And don't forget your gifts.
00:16:56Yeah, I don't need them.
00:17:32Ashley, I only wanted to see you happy.
00:17:36I still hope you will be.
00:17:54Miss Brooke, our client is waiting up to him.
00:18:16Ma?
00:18:19It really is you.
00:18:23It's me.
00:18:25Lauren.
00:18:28Lauren?
00:18:30Is it really you?
00:18:32Ma was always so kind to me.
00:18:34I mean, she adopted me and raised me as her own.
00:18:39Now you're both my precious girls.
00:18:42Then in college, my birth parents reached out after the hurricane.
00:18:47Everything was so confusing and I was so lost.
00:18:50Now I've got all this money and a new life, but God, I still miss Ma so much.
00:18:56I searched for you.
00:18:58I searched for you for years.
00:18:59I didn't know if you survived the hurricane.
00:19:05What happened?
00:19:08Mom, I reconnected you with my birth parents.
00:19:14So much has happened.
00:19:16I thought you'd all forgotten about me.
00:19:21Never.
00:19:23Never.
00:19:25No.
00:19:27No.
00:19:30Mom.
00:19:31Let's go home.
00:19:47Oh, Lauren, I can't go inside.
00:19:50I don't belong here.
00:19:52I should go.
00:19:53Mom, what are you saying?
00:19:55You're family.
00:19:57My home is your home.
00:20:00Lauren!
00:20:01Who's this?
00:20:06This is my adoptive mother.
00:20:08The woman who raised me.
00:20:10Mom, this is William.
00:20:13He is my-
00:20:14Another mother.
00:20:16Lauren, this is a lot to drop on somebody.
00:20:18How am I supposed to process this?
00:20:21Lauren, what other secrets are you hiding?
00:20:22What else is there?
00:20:25I'm sorry, Lauren.
00:20:26I should go.
00:20:27I'll only be in the way here.
00:20:31No!
00:20:31No, please.
00:20:33Stay.
00:20:34Lauren, I don't want to come between you and your boyfriend.
00:20:38Ma, you are not just an outsider.
00:20:41Okay?
00:20:41Forget him.
00:20:42Let's just go inside.
00:20:47Babe, I wish you told me your mother was coming in advance.
00:20:50Could have gotten a nicer gift.
00:20:52Nancy, I'm William.
00:20:53I'm Lauren's fiance.
00:20:55Please excuse my behaviour from earlier.
00:20:57Sometimes I can get a little bit anxious.
00:20:59But it's no excuse, okay?
00:21:01Come inside.
00:21:02Take your shoes off.
00:21:03Let's get comfortable.
00:21:04Hopefully you can accept this gift from me as well.
00:21:09Thank you, William.
00:21:12Did you say Lauren's fiance?
00:21:18Yes, Mom.
00:21:19I'm doing well.
00:21:20You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:21:23Now that's more like it.
00:21:27Come on.
00:21:29Let's go inside.
00:21:30And chill.
00:21:35What a disaster of a wedding you've pulled off.
00:21:39Embarrassing.
00:21:40Chaotic.
00:21:42You're pulling off on your own and you bring in this distant aunt to humiliate me.
00:21:47Mother, I'm sorry.
00:21:49I...
00:21:49Sorry doesn't cut it.
00:21:52You barely earn anything and you can't even afford a goddamn housekeeper.
00:21:57I could have asked my aunt Nancy to help her run the house.
00:22:00She'll do it for real cheap and she'll do whatever you want.
00:22:04Alright.
00:22:05But if she doesn't make this place sparkle, she will not get a penny.
00:22:22My shoes are dirty.
00:22:24My socks have holes in them.
00:22:26I should just stay here.
00:22:37Hey, don't worry about it.
00:22:39This floor...
00:22:40It was made for you to walk home.
00:22:45Mom...
00:22:47You've worked your whole life.
00:22:49You gave me everything.
00:22:51You shouldn't have to feel like a stranger in your own daughter's home.
00:22:58Both.
00:23:08Mom...
00:23:09You don't need to be nervous.
00:23:11This is your home now.
00:23:14You can retire.
00:23:16Enjoy life.
00:23:17Exactly.
00:23:20I never thought I'd be able to quit working.
00:23:22Much less live like this.
00:23:25It's all a little overwhelming to be honest.
00:23:29By the way, Mom, what brought you to the city?
00:23:31I came for Ashley's wedding.
00:23:33Oh my god, really?
00:23:36Ashley married?
00:23:38That's Mom's biological daughter.
00:23:40We grew up together.
00:23:41I remember you said you had a sister.
00:23:43But you didn't really say much about her.
00:23:46We haven't been in touch in forever.
00:23:47We lost contact after college.
00:23:50Who did she marry?
00:23:52Steven Anderson.
00:23:54Oh, the Andersons.
00:23:56I've heard of them.
00:23:57They have a company with great growing potential.
00:24:00Good for Ashley.
00:24:02Yeah.
00:24:04You seem like a good match.
00:24:15Hello?
00:24:16Hey, Mom, it's me.
00:24:18Ashley.
00:24:19About earlier.
00:24:21Yeah, forget it.
00:24:23Hey, can you come to my house tomorrow?
00:24:25Don't get the wrong idea.
00:24:26We're just really busy with the baby and we need an extra hand.
00:24:29I assume you're not busy, right?
00:24:31Yes.
00:24:32Yeah, no problem.
00:24:33I'm glad I can help.
00:24:36I can see my grandchild, right?
00:24:39Willow?
00:24:40Yeah, sure.
00:24:42But just so you know we can't pay you a lot, my finances are really tied up right now.
00:24:45I don't need money.
00:24:47Seeing you and my grandchild is more than enough.
00:24:52This means the world to me.
00:24:54Cool.
00:24:54I'll text you the address.
00:24:59Okay, Mom, it's done.
00:25:01Just start with tomorrow.
00:25:04Well, she better do a good job or she'll answer to me.
00:25:11Lauren, I think I have to leave.
00:25:14Ashley needs me.
00:25:17Is she okay?
00:25:18Yes, I'm busy, you know.
00:25:22And I'm gonna go help out over there.
00:25:26Okay.
00:25:27I understand.
00:25:30Please come back soon.
00:25:34I'll send Ashley a gift.
00:25:36Something to help her with her career.
00:25:38We may not be close anymore, but we're still sisters.
00:25:41And I want you both to have the best life possible.
00:25:44Thank you, Lauren.
00:25:57Ashley, can you not do one thing right for a change?
00:26:01Ashley, Mother's right.
00:26:04This wedding costs a fortune.
00:26:05I called Aunt Nancy.
00:26:08She will cook, clean, whatever.
00:26:11It'll save us a lot of time and energy.
00:26:13A bargain bin relative.
00:26:15Is that the single thing that you can bring to this marriage?
00:26:19Sad.
00:26:22Sorry.
00:26:25Hello?
00:26:27The Brooks Group wants to partner with me?
00:26:31I'd give a $5 million commission?
00:26:34What?
00:26:39Stephen!
00:26:40The Brooks Group, they want to work with me and I'd give $5 million!
00:26:44$5 million!
00:26:44It's a miracle!
00:26:46Well...
00:26:50Well, well, Ashley!
00:26:52I always knew you were a good girl, deep down.
00:26:58The Brooks Group, they are the biggest corporation in the city!
00:27:02And this is going to triple out business value.
00:27:07Ashley, baby, I knew you could be there.
00:27:11Tell me, how in the world did you land a deal with the Brooks Group?
00:27:15I... honestly, I don't know.
00:27:18They said there's going to be a banquet next week and we're going to sign the contract there.
00:27:21Ooh!
00:27:23I am so proud of you, darling!
00:27:27Oh, um, Aunt Nancy.
00:27:29I'm coming!
00:27:33Uh...
00:27:34Hey, so...
00:27:36Remember, you're my Aunt Nancy.
00:27:38If you want to stay here, don't forget that. Got it?
00:27:41Shhh!
00:27:51Stop right there!
00:27:52Look at your shoes!
00:27:55Covered in mud!
00:27:56You dare to walk in like that?
00:28:04Sorry.
00:28:06So sorry.
00:28:07Now.
00:28:09Take off your shoes.
00:28:11Kneel down.
00:28:13And clean every inch that you stay.
00:28:18Then you can enter.
00:28:25Mom's right, Aunt Nancy. Just hurry up and clean the floor.
00:28:50That's much more like it.
00:29:02That's much more like it.
00:29:06I'll go prepare them for me.
00:29:10I love you.
00:29:11I love you.
00:29:30I love you.
00:29:32I love you.
00:29:33I love you.
00:29:36I love you.
00:29:39That must be my granddaughter.
00:29:42Oh, sweet child.
00:29:44I'd...
00:29:45stay here forever.
00:29:47Just for her.
00:29:54Hello, Willem.
00:29:55Don't touch my granddaughter.
00:29:58Don't touch my granddaughter.
00:29:59She's my granddaughter too.
00:30:05Ashley insists you know how to cook.
00:30:08We'll see about that.
00:30:10You know we keep a very strict inventory around here.
00:30:14What is that?
00:30:16Supposed to mean you.
00:30:18You think I'd steal something?
00:30:20Of course.
00:30:21It's in your nature.
00:30:23I almost don't blame you.
00:30:25But if anything goes missing,
00:30:29I will blame you.
00:30:35If just one...
00:30:40is unaccounted for...
00:30:43you will regret it.
00:30:57Who said you could eat with us?
00:31:03I...
00:31:04I don't understand.
00:31:05How many times do I need to explain it to you?
00:31:10Dollard.
00:31:11Look at you.
00:31:12Dress like a beggar.
00:31:15Don't eat somewhere out of my sight.
00:31:18But what is etiquette to sit here?
00:31:21She is a professional nanny.
00:31:24An entirely other breed.
00:31:26We pay top dollar.
00:31:28To have her take care of her children.
00:31:30Do you think you're in the same league?
00:31:32I just...
00:31:33Aunt Nancy, just go eat in the kitchen.
00:31:35I see.
00:31:39I see.
00:31:42I see.
00:31:51I see.
00:31:52I see.
00:32:02I see.
00:32:03It's...
00:32:04It's a toilet.
00:32:05Is that a dog bowl?
00:32:06Sorry.
00:32:07Yeah, there's another guest room.
00:32:08We'll just have to make do.
00:32:09We used to have a puppy in here, but we got rid of it.
00:32:12Mom hated the snot.
00:32:13It shed too much.
00:32:15Really?
00:32:16It would make me sleep in a toilet room.
00:32:19It would make me sleep in a toilet room.
00:32:19Curled up next to it.
00:32:22Toilet bowl.
00:32:25Look, there's really no other room, okay?
00:32:27I mean, if you want to clear more space, you can get rid of the trash.
00:32:31There's some old towels.
00:32:32You can lay those out.
00:32:33There's even water.
00:32:34A dog could survive in here.
00:32:35I don't know what else you need.
00:32:39Ashley, bring me some grapes.
00:32:41Now!
00:32:42Coming, mother!
00:32:46Oh, and don't forget to close the door.
00:32:48Mom hates the snot.
00:32:53Ashley, what happened to you?
00:32:56How can you do this to me?
00:33:04Oh, what are you talking about, Billy?
00:33:09You can't break up with me!
00:33:11Well...
00:33:13I don't consent!
00:33:15Oh!
00:33:17Loser!
00:33:24Drug you, you piece of shit.
00:33:27What's happening?
00:33:29I heard Will crying.
00:33:30She sounds scared.
00:33:32It's nothing!
00:33:34What's that?
00:33:38Sleeping pills.
00:33:39Are you drugging Will?
00:33:41She's...
00:33:41She's just a baby!
00:33:43Give it back!
00:33:44No!
00:33:45Our love is doing anything!
00:33:46You stupid bitch!
00:33:48No!
00:33:56What's going on in here?
00:34:02Ma'am!
00:34:02She was trying to give sleeping pills to Willow!
00:34:05I didn't, I swear!
00:34:07I walked in and...
00:34:11You're trying to hurt my grandchild!
00:34:14What's going on in here?
00:34:16Ashley, your aunt has tried to poison Willow!
00:34:20She's giving sleeping pills to a baby!
00:34:23I didn't!
00:34:25I swear, please listen to me!
00:34:27I...
00:34:30I didn't...
00:34:32It was her!
00:34:34I was trying to protect Willow!
00:34:37Mr. and Mrs. Anderson!
00:34:39You know my credentials!
00:34:41Why would I do this?
00:34:43You disgusting creature!
00:34:45I scold you a few times!
00:34:48Did you take it out of my grandchild?
00:34:51No!
00:34:52No!
00:34:53No!
00:34:56Mother!
00:34:57Her arm is bruised!
00:34:58My poor Willow!
00:35:00How could somebody do something like this to you?
00:35:03Call the police!
00:35:04Now!
00:35:07This lady must have done it while I was in the kitchen!
00:35:09That's why Willow started crying!
00:35:11I came in here because I heard her crying!
00:35:14You have to believe me!
00:35:16You liar!
00:35:18I'll strip you down myself and find the evidence!
00:35:21And then I'll hand you over to the police personally!
00:35:26I didn't do it!
00:35:28Leave me alone!
00:35:30You just pushed me!
00:35:32You dare lay a finger on me!
00:35:36Unlike a baby!
00:35:38I can fight back you filthy cunt!
00:35:43Ashley!
00:35:44Ashley!
00:35:44You know I could never do something like this!
00:35:48Maybe we should just...
00:35:50Just what?
00:35:50She's fucking trying to murder our child!
00:35:53Are you seriously sliding with her right now?
00:35:55No! Of course not!
00:35:57Aunt Nancy!
00:35:58Just tell the truth!
00:36:00Was it you?
00:36:03Ashley!
00:36:04Ashley!
00:36:05You don't believe me either!
00:36:08How could I do something like this?
00:36:11I'm Willow's grave!
00:36:13Shut up!
00:36:14You heard her!
00:36:16Shut up!
00:36:17Now take all your clothes off!
00:36:25I'm Willow.
00:36:28She's fucking fine!
00:36:29She's fucking fine.
00:36:29I'll do it myself.
00:36:37She's fucking fine!
00:36:43She's fucking fine!
00:36:48Should've been dealing with the person like this!
00:36:49She's so fine!
00:36:55I'm happy now. Can I stop? No. Take everything off. Do you need some help? No! No! No! I would
00:37:11never hurt a child. Aunt Nancy, if you didn't do it, just prove it already. Just take your
00:37:18clothes off. What? You'd have me strip completely. Your arm. Okay. I'll do it. I'll do it, Ashley.
00:37:50Now, turn around. Definitely not my dog, huh? Now do you believe me? This proves nothing.
00:38:04Although, it is rather amusing. Now, admit it. Did you abuse Willow? I don't know.
00:38:13Mother, maybe she really didn't do anything. Ashley, why do you even defend her? She
00:38:19hurt her child. Exactly. You take the side of a would-be murderer, you can choose. Either
00:38:26her, or this family. Aunt Nancy, please leave now. Ashley, you're
00:38:43me. Get out, you vile vagabond. What's this? No. You think you could steal from us as well? Give
00:39:09their back. Only a few measly bills. Only a broke woman like you would treat this like
00:39:16treasure. Mr. and Mrs. Anderson wouldn't even bother to pick this amount up off the ground.
00:39:21I used such measly bucks to raise two daughters. I was able to give my children a better life
00:39:28out of the country and in the city. I am sure they are glad to be away from you, hillbilly.
00:39:35I earned every cent I made through hard work. You think you're better than me? You think
00:39:42my money is worthless? I made a happy home. Earning this much every month. This is a month's
00:39:51income. Beautiful. No one here wants your paltry earnings. So get out. You delusional, impoverished
00:40:02piece. Mom? What is going on here? Who are you people? Dare you treat her like this? Who are you
00:40:30people?
00:40:30How dare you treat her like this? Forget it, Lauren. I just want to leave.
00:40:37Mom? Did they hurt you? No. No. They're... they're my employers. That's right. She works for us. Who cares if
00:40:48we gave her a little lesson? And who the hell are you? I'm her daughter.
00:40:52What? Mom only had me. Well, and Lauren. But who knows what happened to that poor foster girl.
00:41:01You liar. She's just a kind woman I met in the city. She's been helping me. I told her she
00:41:09reminded me of my daughter.
00:41:13You really like clinging to younger women. No children of your own to scam or did you run them off?
00:41:22Do not speak to her that way. Nancy is my family. She's still trash. The two of you deserve
00:41:30each other. A couple of lying beggars. Beggars. Do you know who I am? We don't care who you are.
00:41:40Ever heard of Brooks Group? The Brooks Group? What? Do you clean their toilets or something?
00:41:47Oh, you really have no clue, do you? Sweetheart. I don't feel well. Can we just go home?
00:41:56Of course, Mom. I'll take you home. You pathetic little bums.
00:42:14Ma, I'm here. Oh. Oh. Oh. Oh. Are you feeling all right? What did they do to you? Just say
00:42:25the word and I'll make them pay. I'm okay. Ma, you said you were going to Ashley's house.
00:42:31She needs to help out. What happened? They hired a nanny for Willow, so they didn't need me and I
00:42:42found another job. But they don't need me either.
00:42:46Why are you putting yourself through this? Why won't you just stay with us? Honey, I've already caused you enough
00:42:53trouble.
00:42:53Oh. No, you haven't. We would be honored to have you live with us.
00:43:09I want you to treat yourself. I mean it. Spend as much as you want. There's no limit.
00:43:20Lauren, why are you so good to me? I'm just your adoptive mother.
00:43:28What are you talking about?
00:43:30You're at Brooks now and you belong with your kind. Listen, if you hadn't taken me in back then, I
00:43:40probably would have starved or frozen to death on the streets.
00:43:44And you gave everything, everything you had to me and Ashley. You have no idea how much I've missed you.
00:43:55I love you, Ma. Always.
00:43:59I love you too, Lauren. Good. I'm glad we agreed.
00:44:06Oh, I meant to tell you. Next week, I'm taking you to a banquet.
00:44:12A banquet? No, I don't know about that kind of thing and I'd only embarrass you.
00:44:22That's impossible. Because the banquet is for you. And if you don't want to stay here, I won't force you.
00:44:30I'm buying you a new house anyway.
00:44:41Lauren, I don't know about this whole house idea. I could just go back to where I'm staying.
00:44:47Ma, it's a gift I'm happy to give. If the roles were reversed, you would do the same.
00:44:54Please accept it.
00:45:01I'm sorry, Ma. I gotta take this call. Don't worry. I have someone waiting to assist you.
00:45:14My manager said Miss Brooke's mother would be coming today. Could this be her? If it is, I have to
00:45:20make a good impression.
00:45:27Good day, Miss. May I help you?
00:45:29I don't really know how to do this.
00:45:32I'd be happy to show you everything on offer. Care to sit? Please, this way.
00:45:37Yeah, please. Yeah, have a sit. Yes, yes. Here's some water.
00:45:44Oh, here's our brochure. All our properties are developed by Brooke's group. So, platinum tier quality.
00:46:01Ashley, I am so proud of you. This is the finest collection in the city. After the Brooke's group deal
00:46:11closes, I'll be able to afford the best of the best.
00:46:18Ashley, is that your Aunt Nancy? What is she doing here? I think it's about time I stopped being so
00:46:28nice to her.
00:46:30How much is that one?
00:46:32It's only for 1.5 million.
00:46:361.5 million dollars?
00:46:38Yes, and a great value at that.
00:46:41Oh, if you're planning to live with your family, I'd recommend...
00:46:47Augustine model. 7,500 square feet, 6 baths, 6 bedrooms at 18 million dollars.
00:46:53Oh, that's far more than I need.
00:46:5618 million? That old hag couldn't afford that much in 18 lifetimes.
00:47:03Uh, excuse me, who are you?
00:47:06Lucy Anderson, one of your top clientele.
00:47:10And that woman.
00:47:12Regrettably, she was our maid, and we had to fire her for misconduct.
00:47:17She's a liar. Don't waste any more time on her.
00:47:20That's right. She's a broke nobody. A grifter, cosplaying affluence.
00:47:25Wait, this isn't Miss Brooke's mother? Shit. I've been wasting my time with her.
00:47:30Auntie, what are you doing? Just leave town and go home already.
00:47:34Ashley, do you really hate me so much? Am I such a disgrace to you?
00:47:41What happened to that sweet little girl I used to know?
00:47:49So what? I'm not good enough to even exist in this city?
00:47:53Ashley, why does she care so much about what you think? It's not like she's your mom or something.
00:48:01I don't know what you want from me. I was just being nice to you because you came all the
00:48:05way from the countryside. That's all.
00:48:08Some people, they just walk into the city and they think they belong in the city.
00:48:14The truth is, you're just a country bumkin. And you'll never be like us.
00:48:23You know what? That's right. I'll never be like you. I scrimped and saved my whole life so my family
00:48:32could have something better.
00:48:34You all think I'm poor. But I'm rich. In good memories of my... of Ashley. Even if she's forgotten.
00:48:50You think I can't afford a home?
00:48:59That three-bedroom, two-bath model?
00:49:01Uh, Rivera model? Yes.
00:49:04I'll take it. Full payment. Now.
00:49:07Of course. I'll grab the weed card and the contract will be right away, okay?
00:49:15Now I'm wondering where you found this obviously fake card. Or maybe you stole it.
00:49:19Give it back! No, no, no, no, no. You want it now? You beg me.
00:49:23No, I have it. Whatever you're doing, stop it.
00:49:26Okay? But just embarrass yourself further. I know you don't have that kind of money.
00:49:31You do realize that these properties were developed by the Brooks Group?
00:49:35Elite only begins to describe their clientele. And this fake card isn't gonna work.
00:49:42Shall we now add fraud to your list of crimes?
00:49:46Sorry, Lauren. Just this once, I want to be selfish to prove myself.
00:49:55Sir?
00:49:57Please run the card.
00:50:00Of course, miss. Right away.
00:50:02Ashley, there's no way she has that kind of money, right?
00:50:05All set. Please swipe a card. That would be 1.5 million dollars.
00:50:11Go ahead, darling. Swipe it.
00:50:15Mom probably doesn't even have 10 grand. Let alone a mil five.
00:50:21What am I doing? This is crazy.
00:50:24No matter what these people say, I can't spend Lauren's money like this.
00:50:291.5 million dollars? I must be out of my mind.
00:50:35Actually, I'm sorry. I can't buy this yet.
00:50:39Seriously? Sorry, my friend, but what the fuck, lady?
00:50:43I knew she was bluffing. It's probably the cheapest listing and she can't even afford it.
00:50:48Enough. Get out of the way. We're here to buy.
00:50:51Show me your most expensive property.
00:50:54Absolutely.
00:51:00Ashley's about to get a huge payout, aren't you?
00:51:03And we can always leverage some funds.
00:51:07Show me the most expensive listing.
00:51:10But that's 18 million.
00:51:12Your point? If you're not willing to contribute to this family, then why did you even marry my son?
00:51:18Ashley, you know Mother's right. As always.
00:51:21Of course. I'm sorry.
00:51:24I'm sorry, Lauren. I can't give up on Ashley. Please forgive me.
00:51:31Pardon me, sir. I was here first.
00:51:34The Augustine model, I believe you called it.
00:51:38I'll take it.
00:51:40Charge the cart.
00:51:56Come on. Are you kidding me? The cart even doesn't work.
00:52:00No, no. That's impossible. There must be money on it.
00:52:03I told you, she has no money.
00:52:06Lady, why don't you just hitchhike your way back to your little farm?
00:52:10You're getting in the way of your bettors.
00:52:13She's not buying the house. We are.
00:52:16But I have one condition.
00:52:19Of course. Whatever you need.
00:52:21Change.
00:52:21She's polluting the air.
00:52:24And if you want our business, slap her.
00:52:27Twice.
00:52:28But Mother, isn't that...
00:52:30You dare defend her again?
00:52:33No. Of course not.
00:52:36Just a moment. Security!
00:52:41Slap this woman hard.
00:52:44Yes, sir.
00:52:46I meant for you to slap her, but...
00:52:49Watching these two men do it is quite delightful.
00:52:53I'll allow it.
00:52:54Get your hands off me!
00:53:01Stop!
00:53:04What is the meaning of this?
00:53:07Sorry. Sorry.
00:53:10Look. It's the little tramp accomplice.
00:53:14Excuse me. We're in the middle of the situation here.
00:53:17You can make an appointment if you want to.
00:53:19Don't bother with her.
00:53:21She's a con artist, like the old woman.
00:53:24Yeah.
00:53:24They're both loser nobodies.
00:53:28Exactly.
00:53:29Or are you about to claim your son's long-lost heir of the Rockefellers?
00:53:33Or perhaps a Brooks family's second cousin twice for a minute?
00:53:37Get rid of them now!
00:53:40Just a moment.
00:53:44Hello?
00:53:45There are three individuals causing a scene at the Riverfront sales office.
00:53:50Check the security footage to identify them.
00:53:52It's an elderly woman and a couple.
00:53:54They are blacklisted.
00:53:56Do not sell them any property at any price.
00:53:58They're permanently banned.
00:54:01Lady.
00:54:02You're embarrassing yourself.
00:54:04This is my curve.
00:54:05And what I say goes.
00:54:08Escort them out.
00:54:09Now!
00:54:11Ouch! My arm!
00:54:13Hey! Stormtrooper!
00:54:14Let her go!
00:54:15If you harm her, there'll be hell to pay.
00:54:20What on earth is going on in here?
00:54:24Who's creating such a ruckus?
00:54:28A black card.
00:54:32I can't believe that I almost didn't recognize our most VIP clientele.
00:54:38VIP or not, no one should be treated this way.
00:54:54You idiot!
00:54:56How did you not see the black card?
00:54:59Sir, please don't be fooled.
00:55:01The card was fake.
00:55:03The card didn't respond.
00:55:05It's a fake.
00:55:05You're a fool!
00:55:06That is a black prestige card.
00:55:09There's no pen.
00:55:10There's no limit.
00:55:11Regular machines can't even read it!
00:55:13You.
00:55:14You have managed to insult our most VIP clientele.
00:55:19You are fired!
00:55:23No, please. Just...
00:55:29Uh...
00:55:35Uh...
00:55:36Uh...
00:55:36Uh...
00:55:37Uh...
00:55:38Everything has gone through perfectly.
00:55:41The property now officially belongs to you and we can begin processing your paperwork.
00:55:46Congratulations!
00:55:51I don't know what to say.
00:55:53I don't know what to say.
00:55:54I'm like, you don't have to say anything.
00:56:02What just happened?
00:56:04Oh my god.
00:56:06Are they part of the Brooks group?
00:56:13This can't be real.
00:56:15No way mom knows anyone in the Brooks family.
00:56:18But that woman she met...
00:56:20She's clearly loaded.
00:56:22Who is she?
00:56:24Listen, everybody.
00:56:26My Aunt Nancy has never left the countryside before.
00:56:29There is no way she has any connection to the Brooks group.
00:56:33This woman was sleeping on our floor, begging to be our maid and...
00:56:38She'll lie about anything.
00:56:40Yeah.
00:56:41Truly, utterly pathetic.
00:56:43You absolutely have zero clue.
00:56:47I tried to be patient, but...
00:56:50Shut your bitch mouth.
00:56:53I just know who you are.
00:56:56A low class whore, pretending to be part of this Brooks circle.
00:57:01We're the ones that have signed with the Brooks group.
00:57:04You don't say.
00:57:07You're really working with the Brooks group.
00:57:10Of course.
00:57:11I know you wouldn't know what it means to partner with them, but...
00:57:17We're going to be the richest people in the city.
00:57:21Yeah, even if you somehow could afford this place, you're still much lower than we are.
00:57:28Steven, show them.
00:57:29We're going to buy the second most expensive property on your list.
00:57:34Mother, let's not be hasty.
00:57:36Until I sign, can we really afford to...
00:57:39Silence, child!
00:57:41This old bitch has bought the most expensive property on the list.
00:57:44And now you're telling us that we can't buy the second.
00:57:48Sorry.
00:57:50Let's just buy you.
00:57:51Swipe the card.
00:58:00Yes, sir.
00:58:01Yes, sir.
00:58:02Understood, sir.
00:58:04I'm afraid I'm unable to sell you this property, or any other property for that matter.
00:58:13Wait, what?
00:58:15Why?
00:58:16You know, we're refusing to sell to us.
00:58:19You can't do that.
00:58:20Well, Sue.
00:58:20Well, we are a private business, and therefore we have the power to choose our own clients.
00:58:26Perhaps you should be asking yourself, who was it that I pissed off?
00:58:31What?
00:58:32That doesn't make any sense.
00:58:33We didn't do anything wrong.
00:58:35My mom is a nobody.
00:58:37Pissing her off doesn't count.
00:58:38Well, that's something that you can contemplate on your own time and somewhere else.
00:58:44Now, get the hell out of here before I have security throw you out.
00:58:49Sell or don't sell, we don't care, but you'll regret it.
00:58:54Once this Brooks Group deal has gone through, you're gonna come begging back to us.
00:59:00You all just wait.
00:59:01Come on.
00:59:02Let's go.
00:59:03I'm looking forward to seeing how things go with the Brooks Group.
00:59:07And I look forward to shoving the deal down your fucking throat.
00:59:12Wherever you are, I'll find you.
00:59:16I'm seeing you.
00:59:29Hey.
00:59:30What's wrong?
00:59:32I don't know.
00:59:35I feel like mom's hiding something from me.
00:59:38She's probably just overwhelmed.
00:59:41This is all new to her.
00:59:43And she has been through a lot.
00:59:46You know, maybe when she gets to the banquet and she sees Ashley,
00:59:49who sees the surprise that you planned for her,
00:59:52she'll realize that everything's gonna be okay.
00:59:54Yeah.
00:59:56Maybe you're right.
01:00:07Maybe you're right.
01:00:12It's not Mr. and Mrs. Anderson.
01:00:14I hear you are working with the Brooks Group now.
01:00:17It's quite impressive.
01:00:18They say this whole banquet isn't your owner, Miss Anderson.
01:00:22Our little Ashley is quite exquisite.
01:00:26No, no, not at all.
01:00:27I am just so grateful to have the opportunity to show the world who the Anderson family is and what
01:00:33we're capable of.
01:00:34Miss Anderson, we hope you'll remember us and we won't forget you.
01:00:38Oh, thank you, thank you.
01:00:39Of course.
01:00:55Oh, Lauren, I really shouldn't be here.
01:00:59I'm not dressed right.
01:01:00I don't belong in a place like this.
01:01:04Mom, you belong here more than anyone else.
01:01:08This banquet is for you.
01:01:14Damn it.
01:01:15It's the office.
01:01:16I have to take this.
01:01:19Mom, go on inside without me, okay?
01:01:22William will be right here.
01:01:24No, no, no, no.
01:01:25I can't go in alone.
01:01:27You'll be fine.
01:01:28You deserve this.
01:01:30You deserve to be seen.
01:01:37I'll be right back.
01:01:45I'll be right back.
01:01:47I'll be right back.
01:01:50Who's that?
01:01:51Dunno.
01:01:52Never saw her before.
01:01:55She's here?
01:01:56Stuck.

01:02:00She's beyond belief.

01:06:22Everyone here saw it with their own eyes.
01:06:26Ashley, your aunt is the worst.
01:06:28It's not true. I didn't do it.
01:06:33Ashley, you have to believe me.
01:06:35You just came here to ruin Ashley's big moment.
01:06:40Do you really think she's going to defend you now?
01:06:42Mom's right.
01:06:44I swear.
01:06:45If you run things with Miss Brooks and cost me this deal,
01:06:47I will never forgive you.
01:06:49Ashley, do you think I'm a thief too?
01:06:51Stop talking. You are so selfish.
01:06:55Why do you have to come and crash the most important day of my life?
01:06:57Leave me alone.
01:07:01Maybe I should teach you a lesson on behalf of Miss Brooks.
01:07:05I'm sure she'd love to see it.
01:07:09Stephen, hold her down.
01:07:11Stop!

01:07:23Ashley, please help me!
01:07:31Enough!
01:07:35Enough!
01:07:42Nancy, I'm sorry I'm late.
01:07:44Don't worry, I'm here now, okay?
01:07:46William, I made a mess.
01:07:49It's okay.
01:07:50Who's that?
01:07:51That suit's so expensive.
01:07:53Probably Miss Brooks' guest.
01:07:56Now it all makes sense.
01:07:58I wondered why she was so emboldened today.
01:08:01But she's found herself a sugar daddy.
01:08:04Or should I say a sugar son?
01:08:07Yeah, she's old enough to be his mum.
01:08:10These people are monsters.
01:08:12Nancy's enjoyed so much.
01:08:14It's unforgivable.
01:08:26How dare you hate me?
01:08:33Are you out of your mind?
01:08:39The fuck, man?
01:08:41You people are deranged.
01:08:42None of you deserve to be here.
01:08:50How dare you?
01:08:52Do you know who I am?
01:08:54Oh.
01:08:55I know exactly who you are.
01:08:58You're the people that have been abusing Nancy this whole time.
01:09:02So what?
01:09:04People like her?
01:09:05She's a nobody.
01:09:07Pathetic.
01:09:07People like her deserve to be stepped on.
01:09:10That's what they're there for.
01:09:13Miss Empire.
01:09:14We're the guests of Miss Brooks.
01:09:15You don't want to fuck with us.
01:09:16Yeah, I don't care who you are or what your relationship is with my...
01:09:21With her.
01:09:22I suggest you leave.
01:09:24Well, since none of you have any remorse, we won't go easy on you.
01:09:28You're threatening us.
01:09:30You're threatening us.
01:09:30Do you know the power of the Brooks family?
01:09:33We are Miss Brooks's guest of honor.
01:09:35Mom.
01:09:39Mrs. Anderson, Miss Brooks has finalized the project agreement.
01:09:43Here's your contract.
01:09:44It just needs your signature.
01:09:46See?
01:09:47I warned you.
01:09:48I told you to leave.
01:09:49I know you're fucked.
01:09:53Sorry, Mom.
01:09:54But this contract means everything to me.
01:09:59Cancel the deal and cut ties with the entire family.
01:10:04Immediately.
01:10:07Sir, this wasn't Miss Brooks's directive.
01:10:11I can't override her decision.
01:10:13I'm sorry.
01:10:14What happened?
01:10:16Don't have quite the pull you thought you had?
01:10:19Welcome to reality, boy.
01:10:23We already understand.
01:10:24No one fucked with us, got it?
01:10:30Mrs. Anderson, Miss Brooks made an inspired choice in you.
01:10:34You're truly impressive.
01:10:36I'm still so young.
01:10:44I think you owe me an apology.
01:10:51What?
01:10:52Don't touch me.
01:10:53Don't touch you.
01:10:54Or what?
01:11:04Nancy!
01:11:32Who did this?
01:11:45You.
01:11:46You're the guest I invited.
01:11:48You're Ashley.
01:11:49You're that woman in the sales office.
01:11:52Are you stalking us too?
01:11:55You see, I told you.
01:11:57These three, they're in it together.
01:12:00The washed up old hag.
01:12:01The wild little slut and that disgusting gimp.
01:12:04All here to stir up trouble.
01:12:07Uh-oh.
01:12:08That's Lauren Brooks.
01:12:09My god.
01:12:11And you heard what that woman just called her?
01:12:13I don't think they actually know Miss Brooks.
01:12:18Miss Brooks.
01:12:19What is wrong with you people?
01:12:21They're all fake.
01:12:23Call the police, Steven.
01:12:34How dare you publicly familiar with Miss Brooks.
01:12:38Miss Brooks?
01:12:42Ashley Morgan?
01:12:44Yeah.
01:12:45That's me.
01:12:46I can't believe it.
01:12:49You really don't recognize me?
01:12:53I don't know.
01:12:54Look at me.
01:12:55You stand here mocking her.
01:12:58Humiliating her.
01:13:00Shoving her around in public.
01:13:03And yet, you feel nothing.
01:13:06I know you really want this contract, Ashley, but I don't want to give it to you anymore.
01:13:12No, you can't do that, Miss Brooks.
01:13:17I am so stupid.
01:13:19I mean, Miss Brooks, of course they recognize you.
01:13:22I mean, everyone knows your family.
01:13:25Enough.
01:13:26Miss Brooks, we were wrong.
01:13:28We see that now.
01:13:30Please have some mercy.
01:13:31We didn't mean any harm.
01:13:33Let us make it up to you, all right?
01:13:38Don't play innocent with me.
01:13:41I heard every word you said to Nancy.
01:13:43And I'm sure you all said and did worse when you were alone with her.
01:13:48Miss Brooks, I'm sorry.
01:13:49I can see we got off on the wrong foot.
01:13:51Look, we know we messed up, but the project, that's business, right?
01:13:56Forget the contract.
01:13:58Forget business.
01:14:00What about family?
01:14:02Why are you saying this to me?
01:14:04I'll tell you.
01:14:06But first, answer me this.
01:14:11Who is she?
01:14:17Who is that woman?
01:14:21Say it, Ashley Morgan.
01:14:24Right here, in front of everyone.
01:14:28Tell everyone who this woman really is.
01:14:34Say it, Ashley.
01:14:36Who is she?
01:14:40Miss Brooks, I don't know what you're talking about.
01:14:47But it should have nothing to do with our contract.
01:14:51We're professionals.
01:14:56I...
01:14:58I can't handle this anymore.
01:15:00I shouldn't be here.
01:15:01I wasn't made for this big city life.
01:15:06I've never been anything but worthless.
01:15:10You can't let them treat you like this.
01:15:12You are not what they say.
01:15:15You're the most precious person I've ever known.
01:15:19Miss Brooks, please just let her leave.
01:15:21Don't allow her to ruin the evening.
01:15:25Our evening?
01:15:27Is that all you care about?
01:15:29The contract?
01:15:30Money?
01:15:31Miss Brooks, I'm sorry, but I...
01:15:34Ashley, you kicked Nancy out of your wedding.
01:15:38You humiliated her while buying a house.
01:15:42And now you just stand here watching as your mother-in-law bullies and abuses her.
01:15:48Not even a stranger deserves to be treated like this.
01:15:52But she's not a stranger, is she?
01:15:56Tell me.
01:15:58Who took care of you when you were sick?
01:16:01Who stayed up with you when you had a nightmare?
01:16:06Who gave up everything?
01:16:09Everything!
01:16:10To give you a better life.
01:16:14She's not some random woman.
01:16:16She's not even your aunt.
01:16:19She's the reason you exist.
01:16:21So why is it so hard to admit that she is your mother?
01:16:29She's Mrs. Anderson's mother?
01:16:32Her mother was right there and she refused to acknowledge her?
01:16:36And she even humiliated her in public.
01:16:40How terrible.
01:16:41How do you know that?
01:16:47Wait.
01:16:53Oh my god.
01:16:56You're Lauren.
01:16:59She's your mother, Ashley?
01:17:01You told me that she was travelling the world.
01:17:04That she wasn't even in the country.
01:17:07You told me that she was just a distant aunt.
01:17:11Ashley, you lied to her.
01:17:12Your mother is just a dirty old woman?
01:17:16Ashley, this woman raised you.
01:17:20Gave her all for you.
01:17:23Provided a home full of love.
01:17:26And you denied her.
01:17:30Like she was nothing.
01:17:32Ungrateful brat.
01:17:33If she would betray her mother like that, how could anyone ever trust her?
01:17:39Honestly.
01:17:39I feel bad for that poor woman.
01:17:42Alright.
01:17:43You all asked for this.
01:17:45Nooo.
01:17:51Nooo.
01:17:53Nooo.
01:17:57Nooo.
01:17:59Nooo.
01:18:00Nooo.
01:18:01Nooo.
01:18:02I feel sorry.
01:18:06Nooo.
01:18:06I'm sorry.
01:18:06I literally am.
01:18:07Please, please give me another chance.
01:18:10Miss Bruce, we were wrong. We were very wrong. We were decent people, really.
01:18:18I promise, from now on, I'm gonna treat Nancy with the most utter respect.
01:18:25I'm not the one you should be kneeling to.
01:18:41Oops. Accidents.
01:18:44Stephen! Stephen!
01:18:49Stephen! Now!
01:18:51Leave me out of this.
01:18:53Stephen! Stephen!
01:18:55I didn't ask for this. It didn't do anything.
01:18:58Stephen!
01:19:00But you did ask for this, you son of a bitch.
01:19:19Mom. Mommy.
01:19:23I know I fucked up.
01:19:27I just got caught up in all of this.
01:19:31It's been so hard.
01:19:34I was blind. I see that now.
01:19:38It was just awful.
01:19:41It could change for you.
01:19:43And for Willow.
01:19:45Don't forget your granddaughter.
01:19:48Mother.
01:19:50I didn't know it was yours.
01:19:53I promise, from now on, I'll treat you.
01:19:56I'll treat you like my own mother.
01:19:58I see.
01:20:02What a mild ride.
01:20:06You know what it's like for women of our age.
01:20:09We have to keep up appearances.
01:20:12Keep up our...
01:20:13Let's not dwell in the past.
01:20:15Let's be friends, dear.
01:20:19Whatever you decide, Mom.
01:20:22I'm with you.
01:20:23You know...
01:20:25Were you perhaps more than what you areлеable?
01:20:27Oh my goodness.
01:20:40I've raised my arms around you.
01:20:47But I's still numb.
01:20:47Until yesterday, my fear was waiting to sleep.
01:20:47You Hoorayton, your neighbor.
01:20:51I live in the past.
01:20:53source of shame for you and that's a hard thing for a mother to accept.
01:21:08Yes, I come from the countryside
01:21:13and yes I've led a humble life
01:21:20which some might consider poor. Since I've come to town, I've been harassed, mistreated, lied to and lied about.
01:21:40Ashley, I can see how I've embarrassed you. I'm not the kind of mother you want. She is.
01:21:48I've made peace with that and I'll be okay, really. But from now on
01:22:00you are not my daughter.
01:22:08No. Mom, please don't do that.
01:22:13No. Mom, please don't do that. Please, please wait.
01:22:23Ashley Anderson and the entire Anderson family are blacklisted from Brooks Group's projects.
01:22:30I'll personally ensure every one of our partners know no one works with you ever again.
01:22:37Furthermore, I will have my lawyer investigate all that you did to my mother and you will be held
01:22:45accountable to the full extent of the law.
01:22:50Huang, please don't do that.
01:23:02This can't be real. We're finished.
01:23:07Ruid.
01:23:07Stupid girl. This is all your fault.
01:23:12Destroy the family.
01:23:13I will kill you!
01:23:25Ma, let's go home.
01:23:48This was your favorite. Try it.
01:23:51I used your recipe.
01:23:53Should we go to the gardens this afternoon?
01:23:55I remember you said you wanted to plant some roses.
01:24:01Both.
01:24:03You know, being here with you,
01:24:06it's more than I could ever ask for.
01:24:08But later,
01:24:27let's have this,
01:24:28let's go ahead.
01:24:37Do you know this lady, Willow?
01:24:43Is she like your mom?
01:24:45Of course not.
01:24:46My mom's on vacation in Europe.
01:24:48No, I'm not, Willow.
01:24:50I am right here.
01:24:51You're mistaken, ma'am.
01:24:52I've never seen you before in my life.
01:24:54Yeah, let's go in this case.
01:24:55Let's go to the coffee shop.
01:24:56Just have some bread.
01:25:03Madam, isn't that your daughter, Miss Anderson?
01:25:06Would you like to go say hello?
01:25:08No need.
01:25:09I only have one daughter.
01:25:11Now let's go home.
