00:00:01Eight years. It's been eight long years since I last saw my little Ashley.
00:00:08Today's the day I finally get to see my daughter get married.
00:00:13Happy birthday, sweetheart.
00:00:16Thanks, Mom. Your presents are always my favorite.
00:00:19Anyway, today is Ashley's big day and Mom is here with your favorite gifts.
00:00:32Whoa, lady! Stop! Stop!
00:00:34You don't want to try panhandling here and no loitering neither.
00:00:38Do yourself a favor. This is a high-end joint and you clearly don't belong here.
00:00:43So get out before I drag you out.
00:00:48Wait, stop. Hold on a second.
00:00:50Miss Anderson.
00:00:53Ashley.
00:00:58Mom.
00:01:00Can we talk over there?
00:01:05What are you doing here?
00:01:07I told you not to come.
00:01:08Well, I...
00:01:10Every mother wants to see their little girl walk down the aisle.
00:01:15I brought you some of your favorites from home.
00:01:18Strawberry jam.
00:01:21Turkey jerky.
00:01:24And...
00:01:24I needed you the scarf.
00:01:29Are you serious right now?
00:01:31What am I supposed to do with all of these?
00:01:32Do you have any idea who I'm marrying?
00:01:35Oh, my God. It smells like a barn.
00:01:40Ashley, I can see you don't want me here.
00:01:44Can I just watch?
00:01:46No, Mom.
00:01:48I told everyone that you were traveling abroad and you just couldn't make it.
00:01:52Now you just show up out of the blue.
00:01:54How am I even going to explain that?
00:01:59I'm sorry.
00:02:00I didn't know.
00:02:02I thought it would be a nice surprise.
00:02:06Mom, you work too hard.
00:02:08When I grow up, I will take you to the fanciest restaurant and go on a beach vacation.
00:02:15Thank you, sweetheart.
00:02:17I thought you would be happy to see me.
00:02:21Ashley.
00:02:25Who's this?
00:02:31This...
00:02:32This is my...
00:02:33My Aunt Nancy.
00:02:35She just dropped in.
00:02:37Got it. Welcome.
00:02:39Why don't you just invite your aunt in?
00:02:41Okay, yeah, yeah, of course.
00:02:44Okay.
00:02:45Fine.
00:02:47But don't embarrass me.
00:02:48Remember.
00:02:49Your Aunt Nancy.
00:03:04It's magnificent.
00:03:06My little girl is marrying into a whole other world.
00:03:11I hear she has no family attending the wedding.
00:03:14That's so sus.
00:03:15They say she comes from Poors.
00:03:18She's probably some country hick who somehow clued her way into the Anderson family.
00:03:26Well...
00:03:27What are you talking about?
00:03:29Who else?
00:03:30The bride, of course.
00:03:34You can tell by her posture alone that she comes from broke trash.
00:03:38But she acts like she's a goddamn princess.
00:03:40Yeah.
00:03:41Yeah.
00:03:41Even her mother didn't show her.
00:03:43Either...
00:03:44Ashley...
00:03:45Is ashamed.
00:03:46Or mom abandoned her.
00:03:48Either way...
00:03:49It's alone...
00:03:51Plus shit.
00:03:53None of what you're saying is true.
00:03:57Ashley is...
00:03:57Kind and thoughtful.
00:03:59And she may have a humble background.
00:04:02But she's rich in character.
00:04:05Who are you anyway?
00:04:07You know usually the janitors don't show up until after the wedding.
00:04:12Look at her clothes.
00:04:14My socks cost more than half a closet.
00:04:20Wait, wait.
00:04:21Don't tell me she's related to the bride.
00:04:23That would be...
00:04:24Yikes.
00:04:25As a matter of fact...
00:04:28Yes.
00:04:29I'm here for Ashley.
00:04:31I knew it.
00:04:35I almost feel sorry for Ashley.
00:04:37She worked so hard to hide people like you from us.
00:04:43Little princess must be mortified.
00:04:46You're here.
00:04:50Mortified?
00:04:51What am I doing to embarrass her?
00:04:54And what would you know about my bank account?
00:04:58Oh my god, lady.
00:04:59Do I really have to spell it out for you?
00:05:01That sad little outfit of yours wouldn't even hit 50 bucks.
00:05:05What the hell is going on in here?
00:05:08You.
00:05:10What the hell is going on in here?
00:05:13You.
00:05:14You just standing there.
00:05:16Get back to work.
00:05:17Setting tables or whatever it is that you people will do.
00:05:21I'll be having a word with your manager about...
00:05:24Hiring better staff.
00:05:25Look at you.
00:05:27Filthy.
00:05:28Ma'am, I'm not part of the staff.
00:05:30Please.
00:05:31You don't expect me to believe that you're on my list.
00:05:34Lucy, actually, yes.
00:05:36She's here to support Miss Ashley, apparently.
00:05:39I'm with you, Lucy.
00:05:40It doesn't look like she belongs here.
00:05:45Well, someone's obviously mistaken.
00:05:48Because I went through the guest list myself and Ashley never mentioned somebody like her.
00:05:54Well, maybe you missed it.
00:05:57I don't think so.
00:05:59Who are you really?
00:06:01I think you should leave before I call security.
00:06:06I'm not leaving.
00:06:08I'm here to see Ashley.
00:06:10But Ashley didn't put you on the list, did she?
00:06:15Or are you here hoping for a handout?
00:06:18I mean, these gifts of the bride and groom, they're not for guests.
00:06:26All I wanted was to be here for Ashley.
00:06:29Fine.
00:06:30If you want to continue with this madness, then you've just pulled this off yourself, haven't you?
00:06:42Lucy, maybe just let it go.
00:06:44It's your son's big day.
00:06:45You shouldn't be getting your hands dirty.
00:06:47No way.
00:06:49That lady deserved it.
00:06:50Somebody had to teach her a lesson.
00:06:52I'm not here to cause trouble.
00:06:55I'm just here for the ceremony and to bring some gifts for the bride.
00:07:02Really?
00:07:03Let's see what delightful little treasures that you've dragged in here.
00:07:11Incredible.
00:07:14Preserves.
00:07:20Oh, dried meat.
00:07:25Oh, and a scarf that smells like the bottom of a stable.
00:07:38Shall I show you what we do with the trash?
00:07:44Help!
00:07:46What are you doing?
00:07:47Stop!
00:07:48Somebody help me, please!
00:07:50I told you, but I couldn't do what the fuck I love!
00:07:59I'm Ashley!
00:08:02Mother!
00:08:08Life!
00:08:10Ashley's mother is vacationing in Switzerland.
00:08:13Although my daughter-in-law's family may not be at our level, they are very respectable.
00:08:21And what the hell are you?
00:08:23Did she really say that?
00:08:26Of course.
00:08:28Did you really think you could come waltzing in here and ruin my son's wedding?
00:08:35You're not the first freeloading fraud that I've encountered.
00:08:41Don't worry, everyone.
00:08:43This old bag lady.
00:08:44She won't be troubling us much longer.
00:08:47Yeah, kick her ass out.
00:08:49I'm sick of her from the little face.
00:09:02Why are you crazy? Are you gonna murder me in public?
00:09:07Why not? Who'd even notice if you were gone?
00:09:17Mother?
00:09:21Mother?
00:09:26Mother?
00:09:28Ashley, do you know this woman?
00:09:31Is that why wasn't she on the guest list?
00:09:34Uh, that's my...
00:09:35Uh, a distant relative.
00:09:38Aunt Nancy.
00:09:39Um, she dropped by last minute.
00:09:42Yes, we met her at the entrance.
00:09:45I'm...
00:09:47I'm her Aunt Nancy.
00:09:52Your mother's in Switzerland, that's right, isn't it?
00:09:55Yes, of course.
00:09:57Lying's not going to get you very far in my world.
00:10:01Your niece, my daughter-in-law, isn't going to follow your tall tales.
00:10:09Okay, Auntie?
00:10:22I...
00:10:23I...
00:10:24I never wanted any of this.
00:10:26I just wanted...
00:10:27to see Ashley happy.
00:10:30Happy? With you here?
00:10:35Well...
00:10:39Maybe this will cheer everybody up.
00:10:45Hmm...
00:10:48Hmm...
00:11:11You're defending this marmalade woman!
00:11:17Ha ha ha!
00:11:18You know...
00:11:19I call you my daughter-in-law.
00:11:22But...
00:11:22It's not official yet.
00:11:25Do you still want to marry my son?
00:11:27Yes, of course, Mother!
00:11:29Good.
00:11:31Then I'll give you one more chance.
00:11:33Sure, Mother.
00:11:34I'll...
00:11:35I'll...
00:11:35I'm early now.
00:11:36Aunt Nancy, I'm sorry, but...
00:11:38You have to...
00:11:39Oh, no, no, no, dear.
00:11:41That's not enough.
00:11:43Go over...
00:11:44And slap her in her ugly peasant face.
00:11:49It's that or you can forget about joining our family.
00:11:53Come on, Ashley.
00:11:54Everything's ready.
00:11:55Stop wasting time.
00:11:56Give her a quick slap and let's move on.
00:12:00Ashley...
00:12:02Look at me.
00:12:05What has happened to you?
00:12:07Look!
00:12:10Look at who I am.
00:12:12Mom...
00:12:13Shut up.
00:12:14That's enough.
00:12:15I know who you are.
00:12:18Sorry, Mom.
00:12:20This is my future.
00:12:21You wanted me to have everything.
00:12:24So...
00:12:25You just have to forgive me.
00:12:45You just have to forgive me.
00:12:46Get out.
00:12:49I can't believe you'd hit me.
00:12:54How could you?
00:12:55I knew...
00:12:56I knew...
00:12:57You're her what?
00:12:58You're just some hillbilly distant relative from the middle of nowhere.
00:13:04Just look at you.
00:13:06That outfit.
00:13:07Standing amongst your betters.
00:13:10If you're not ashamed, we are on your behalf.
00:13:14Amen to that, Mrs. Anderson.
00:13:16You know, if the press catches on to this, it will be all over the feeds tomorrow.
00:13:20A total tabloids candle.
00:13:23Ashley?
00:13:25How could you treat me like this after all these years?
00:13:29It's so pathetic.
00:13:31She's still acting like she matters.
00:13:40Say something.
00:13:42Tell them.
00:13:45Tell them who I am.
00:13:49Oh, I...
00:13:51Yes, Ashley.
00:13:52Yes, I'm here.
00:14:01I'm sorry, Mom.
00:14:03I...
00:14:04I can't admit it.
00:14:07I'm getting weary with this charade.
00:14:11Is there going to be a wedding or not?
00:14:13Or shall we just cool this whole thing off?
00:14:16Ashley, come on.
00:14:17This is our big day.
00:14:19Are you siding with my mother or this...
00:14:21This vagabond?
00:14:22Do you even want to marry me?
00:14:25Of course.
00:14:27I didn't mean that at all.
00:14:32Please, just stop.
00:14:35Just tell them you were wrong.
00:14:37And leave quietly.
00:14:39For me.
00:14:41But what...
00:14:42What did I do wrong?
00:14:44I...
00:14:44I just came to see you get married.
00:14:48She's a persistent little bumpkin.
00:14:50I'll give her that.
00:14:51I guess you have to be persistent to survive out in the wilderness.
00:14:56Okay, enough.
00:14:57Just go.
00:14:59I don't want you here.
00:15:01Leave now.
00:15:04I'm sorry.
00:15:07I'm just a poor woman from the countryside.
00:15:12I shouldn't have called.
00:15:16Not bad.
00:15:18Well, since you came all this way, all by uninvited,
00:15:23let me offer you some dessert.
00:15:31I bet you've never seen anything quite this exquisite in your whole miserable life.
00:15:39Bon appetit.
00:16:15Oh, another pear tainted.
00:16:17Oh, another pear tainted.
00:16:19Oh, another pear tainted.
00:16:30Before you taint this wedding any further.
00:16:34Alright.
00:16:36I'll go.
00:16:40Congratulations, Ashley.
00:16:43I hope you have a happy marriage.
00:16:47Of course she'll be happy.
00:16:48She's marrying my son.
00:16:50How could she not?
00:16:53And...
00:16:53Don't forget your gifts.
00:16:56Yeah, I don't need them.
00:17:08Don't forget my baby!
00:17:09You see?
00:17:31Ashley, I only wanted to see you happy, but I still hope you will be.
00:17:54Ms. Brooks, our client is waiting up for you.
00:18:16Ma?
00:18:19It really is you?
00:18:23It's me!
00:18:25Lauren!
00:18:28Lauren, is it really you?
00:18:32Ma was always so kind to me.
00:18:35I 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.
00:18:46Everything 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 for years.
00:18:59I didn't know if you survived the hurricane.
00:19:05What happened?
00:19:07I helped.
00:19:10Ma, I reconnected with my birth parents.
00:19:14So much has happened.
00:19:17I thought you'd all forgotten about me.
00:19:21Never!
00:19:23Never!
00:19:27Mom.
00:19:30Mom.
00:19:32Let's go home.
00:19:47Oh, Lauren, I can't go inside.
00:19:50I don't belong here.
00:19:52I should go.
00:19:53Ma, 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.
00:20:11Ma, this is William.
00:20:14He is my-
00:20:15Another 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?
00:20:23What 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!
00:20:32No, 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 some outsider.
00:20:41Okay?
00:20:42Forget him.
00:20:43Let'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.
00:20:53Nancy, I'm William.
00:20:54I'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 no excuse, okay?
00:21:02Come inside.
00:21:03Take your shoes off.
00:21:03Let's get comfortable.
00:21:04Hopefully you can accept this gift from me as well.
00:21:10Thank you, William.
00:21:12Did you say Lauren's fiance?
00:21:18Yes, Mom.
00:21:20I'm doing well.
00:21:21You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:21:24Now that's more like it.
00:21:28Come on.
00:21:29Let's come inside.
00:21:31And chill.
00:21:36What a disaster of a wedding you've pulled off.
00:21:40Embarrassing.
00:21:41Chaotic.
00:21:42You're pulling up on your own and you bring in this distant aunt to humiliate me.
00:21:48Mother, I'm sorry.
00:21:50I...
00:21:50No, sorry doesn't cut it.
00:21:52You barely earn anything and you can't even afford a goddamn housekeeper.
00:21:58Huh?
00:21:58I could, uh, ask my aunt Nancy to help her around the house.
00:22:01She'll do it for real cheap and she'll do whatever you want.
00:22:05Right?
00:22:06But if she doesn't make this place sparkle, she will not get a penny.
00:22:23My shoes are dirty.
00:22:25My socks have holes in them.
00:22:27I should, uh, I should just stay here.
00:22:37Hey, don't worry about it.
00:22:40This floor, it was made for you to walk on.
00:22:47Mom, you've worked your whole life.
00:22:50You gave me everything.
00:22:52You shouldn't have to feel like a stranger in your own daughter's home.
00:22:59Both.
00:23:08Mom.
00:23:10You don't need to be nervous.
00:23:12This is your home now.
00:23:15You can retire.
00:23:17Enjoy life.
00:23:18Exactly.
00:23:21I never thought I'd be able to quit working, or much less live like this.
00:23:27It's all a little overwhelming, to be honest.
00:23:30By the way, Mom, what brought you to the city?
00:23:32I came for Ashley's wedding.
00:23:35Oh my God, really?
00:23:37Ashley married?
00:23:40That's Mom's biological daughter we grew up together.
00:23:42I remember you said you had a sister, but you didn't really say much about her.
00:23:47We haven't been in touch in forever.
00:23:49We lost contact after college.
00:23:51Who did she marry?
00:23:53Steven Anderson.
00:23:55Oh, the Andersons.
00:23:57I like them.
00:23:58They have a company with great growing potential.
00:24:01Good for Ashley.
00:24:03Yeah.
00:24:05You seem like a good match.
00:24:16Hello?
00:24:17Hey, Mom, it's me.
00:24:19Ashley.
00:24:20About earlier.
00:24:22Yeah, forget it.
00:24:24Hey, can you come to my house tomorrow?
00:24:26Don't get the wrong idea.
00:24:27We're just really busy with the baby, and we need an extra hand.
00:24:30I assume you're not busy, right?
00:24:32Yes.
00:24:33No, yeah.
00:24:34No problem.
00:24:34I'm glad I can help.
00:24:37I can see my grandchild, right?
00:24:40Willow?
00:24:41Yeah, sure.
00:24:43But just so you know, we can't pay you a lot.
00:24:45My finances are really tied up right now.
00:24:47I don't need money.
00:24:48Seeing you and my grandchild is more than enough.
00:24:53This means the world to me.
00:24:55Cool.
00:24:56I'll text you the address.
00:25:01Okay, Mom, it's done.
00:25:02She'll start with tomorrow.
00:25:04Hmm.
00:25:05Well, she better do a good job, or she'll answer to me.
00:25:13Lauren, I think I have to leave.
00:25:16Ashley needs me.
00:25:18Oh.
00:25:18Is she okay?
00:25:20Oh, yes.
00:25:21I'm busy, you know.
00:25:23And I'm gonna go help out over there.
00:25:27Okay.
00:25:29I understand.
00:25:31Please come back soon.
00:25:35I'll send Ashley a gift.
00:25:37Something to help her with her career.
00:25:39We may not be close anymore, but we're still sisters, and...
00:25:43I want you both to have the best life possible.
00:25:46Thank you, Lauren.
00:25:59Ashley.
00:25:59Ashley.
00:26:00Can you not do one thing right for a change?
00:26:03Ashley, my mother's right.
00:26:05This wedding costs a fortune.
00:26:07I, um...
00:26:08I called Aunt Nancy.
00:26:10She will cook, clean, whatever.
00:26:12It'll save us a lot of time and energy.
00:26:14A bargain bin relative.
00:26:17Is that the single thing that you can bring to this marriage?
00:26:21Sad.
00:26:23Oh, sorry.
00:26:27Hello?
00:26:29The Brooks Group wants to partner with me?
00:26:33I, I get a $5 million commission?
00:26:36What?
00:26:40Mom!
00:26:41Steven!
00:26:42The Brooks Group, they want to work with me, and I get $5 million!
00:26:46It's a miracle!

00:26:50Ha!
00:26:52Well, well, Ashley!
00:26:54I always knew you were a good girl, deep down.
00:26:58Ha!
00:27:00The Brooks Group, they are the biggest corporation in the city!
00:27:04And this is going to triple our business value.
00:27:09Ashley, baby, I knew you could be.
00:27:13Oh, tell me, how in the world did you land a deal with the Brooks Group?
00:27:17I, honestly, I, I don't know.
00:27:20They, they said there's going to be a banquet next week and we're going to sign the contract there.
00:27:24Oh, I am so proud of you, darling.
00:27:29Oh, um, Aunt Nancy.
00:27:31I'm coming.
00:27:34Uh, hey, so, remember, you're my Aunt Nancy.
00:27:39If you want to stay here, don't forget that, got it?
00:27:44Shh.
00:27:52Stop right there.
00:27:55Look at your shoes, covered in mud.
00:27:58You dare to walk in like that?
00:28:07Sorry.
00:28:07I'm so sorry.
00:28:10Now, take off your shoes, kneel down, and clean every inch that you stay.
00:28:20Then you can enter.
00:28:27Mom's right, Aunt Nancy.
00:28:28Just hurry up and clean the floor.
00:28:32Oh.
00:28:34Oh.
00:28:34Oh.
00:28:35Oh.
00:28:36Oh.
00:28:52That's much more like it.
00:29:04There's my itty-bitty baby.
00:29:08I'll go prepare the poner.
00:29:13Oh
00:29:34With mama's girl
00:29:40Oh
00:29:42That must be my granddaughter
00:29:44Oh sweet child
00:29:46I'd
00:29:47Stay here forever
00:29:49Just for her
00:29:55Hello Willem
00:29:57Don't touch my granddaughter
00:30:00She's my granddaughter too
00:30:07Ashley insists you know how to cook
00:30:10We'll see about that
00:30:12You know we keep a very strict inventory around here
00:30:17What is that?
00:30:18Supposed to mean you
00:30:20You think I'd steal something?
00:30:22Of course
00:30:23It's in your nature
00:30:25I almost don't blame you
00:30:28But if anything goes missing
00:30:31I will blame you
00:30:39If just one
00:30:43Is unaccounted for
00:30:45You will regret it
00:31:01Who said you could eat with us?
00:31:06I don't understand
00:31:07How many times
00:31:09Do I need to explain it to you?
00:31:12Dullard
00:31:14Look at you
00:31:15Dressed like a beggar
00:31:17Don't eat somewhere
00:31:18Out of my sight
00:31:20But why does
00:31:21Etta get to sit here?
00:31:23She
00:31:24Is a professional nanny
00:31:26An entirely other breed
00:31:28We pay
00:31:29Top dollar
00:31:30To have her take care of our children
00:31:32Do you think
00:31:33You're in the same league?
00:31:35I just
00:31:35Etta Nancy
00:31:36Just go eat in the kitchen
00:31:37I see
00:32:03Ashley
00:32:06It's a

00:32:11You'll just have to make do
00:32:12We used to have a puppy in here
00:32:14But we got rid of it
00:32:15Mom hated this knot
00:32:16It shed too much
00:32:18Really?
00:32:19It made me sleep
00:32:20In a toilet room
00:32:22Curled up next to it
00:32:25Toilet bowl?
00:32:27Look
00:32:28There's really no other room
00:32:29Okay?

00:32:32You can get rid of the trash
00:32:33Um
00:32:33There's some old towels
00:32:34You can lay those out
00:32:35There's even water
00:32:36A dog could survive in here
00:32:38I don't know what else you need

01:02:00she's here
01:02:01stop
01:02:02that old bag has no shame
01:02:05she's beyond belief
01:02:10Nancy
01:02:14well hello there
01:02:16you look a little thirsty
01:02:17allow me
01:02:34she's behind me
01:02:45I'm sorry
01:02:51You think everything about me is cheap, don't you?
01:02:55As a matter of fact, I do.
01:02:58You could be dressed head to toe in Prada and you'd still be cheap underneath.
01:03:03No, no, not cheap.
01:03:05What?
01:03:08Do you even know what kind of an event this is?
01:03:13Stop following me.
01:03:15Go away.
01:03:16What even is she?
01:03:18It doesn't look like someone Miss Brooks would invite.
01:03:21Who is she?
01:03:22She's just a maid we hired to clean floors and toilets.
01:03:27God knows how she's snuck in here.
01:03:29I am not a maid.
01:03:32Oh, that's right.
01:03:34Silly me, I forgot.
01:03:36We fired you.
01:03:37Now you're just an unemployed beggar that dresses up to make herself feel more important.
01:03:50I was invited by Miss Brooks herself.
01:03:57She's my daughter.
01:04:01My adopted daughter.
01:04:06You really are crazy.
01:04:08You're totally delusional.
01:04:15You're Miss Brooks' mother.
01:04:18Then I must be her biological mother.
01:04:21Oh my God.
01:04:22Does that make us sisters?
01:04:27Is she for real?
01:04:28Dude, I know, right?
01:04:30She's nuts.
01:04:31Like someone that poor would even be allowed to adopt anyone?
01:04:34I know, right?
01:04:35I didn't even know Miss Brooks was adopted.
01:04:38That lady's either a liar or a loony.
01:04:41You people need to understand.
01:04:43This woman is dangerous.
01:04:46She's not just vain.
01:04:48She is vicious.
01:04:50She tried to kill my granddaughter.
01:05:02That's not true.
01:05:05It wasn't me.
01:05:08Shh.
01:05:14Oh, no.
01:05:17My bracelet.
01:05:18It's gone.
01:05:19It was on my wrist earlier.
01:05:25You.
01:05:27You have always been a thief and a fraud.
01:05:31Ladies and gentlemen, check your bags and your jewelry.
01:05:35Someone here has got sticky fingers.
01:05:38She's lying.
01:05:40I'm not a thief.
01:05:51Ladies and gentlemen, take a look inside your bag.
01:06:08You can't help yourself, can you?
01:06:11Gaze upon this damnable wretch and curse her.
01:06:17Please.
01:06:22Why are you doing this to me?
01:06:25Don't try to play the victim.
01:06:27Everyone here saw it with their own eyes.
01:06:32Ashley, your aunt is the worst.
01:06:34It's not true.
01:06:35I didn't do it.
01:06:38Ashley, you have to believe me.
01:06:41You just came here to ruin Ashley's big moment.
01:06:45Do you really think she's going to defend you now?
01:06:48Mom's right.
01:06:49I swear.
01:06:51If you remember things with Miss Brooks and cost me this deal, I will never forgive you.
01:06:55Ashley, do you think I'm a thief too?
01:06:57Stop talking.
01:06:58You are so selfish.
01:07:01Why do you have to come and crash the most important day of my life?
01:07:04Leave me alone.
01:07:07Maybe I should teach you a lesson on behalf of Miss Brooks.
01:07:11I sure she'd love to see it.
01:07:15Steven, hold her down.
01:07:17Stop!
01:07:18Don't do this!
01:07:20You enjoy being a thief so much.
01:07:24I'll give you the thief's mark.
01:07:26And this is what I'm trying to challenge as well.
01:07:29Ashley, please help me!
01:07:37Enough!
01:07:40Enough!
01:07:47Nancy, I'm sorry I'm late.
01:07:50Don't worry, I'm here now, okay?
01:07:51William, I made a mess.
01:07:54It's okay.
01:07:55Who's that?
01:07:57That's so, so expensive.
01:07:59Probably Miss Brooks' guest.
01:08:01Now it all makes sense.
01:08:03I wondered why she was so emboldened today.
01:08:07But she's found herself a sugar daddy.
01:08:09Or should I say a sugar son?
01:08:12Yeah, she's old enough to be his mom.
01:08:15These people are monsters.
01:08:18Nancy's enjoyed so much.
01:08:19It's unforgivable.
01:08:32How dare you hate me.
01:08:39Are you out of your mind?
01:08:45What the fuck, man?
01:08:46You people are deranged.
01:08:48None of you deserve to be here.
01:08:55How dare you!
01:08:57Do you know who I am?
01:08:59Oh, I know exactly who you are.
01:09:03You're the people that have been abusing Nancy this whole time.
01:09:07So what?
01:09:09People like her, she's a nobody.
01:09:12Pathetic.
01:09:12People like her deserve to be stepped on.
01:09:16That's what they're there for.
01:09:18Miss Empire, we do guests of Miss Brooks.
01:09:21You don't want to fuck with us.
01:09:22Yeah, I don't care who you are or what your relationship is with my...
01:09:26With her.
01:09:27I suggest you leave.
01:09:29Well, since none of you have any remorse, we won't go easy on you.
01:09:34You're threatening us.
01:09:35Do you know the power of the Brooks family?
01:09:38We are Miss Brooks' guest of honor.
01:09:44Mrs. Anderson, Miss Brooks has finalized the project agreement.
01:09:48Here's your contract.
01:09:49It just needs your signature.
01:09:51See?
01:09:52I warned you.
01:09:54I told you to leave.
01:09:55And I fucked.
01:09:59Sorry, Mom.
01:10:00But this contract means everything to me.
01:10:05Cancel the deal and cut ties with the entire family.
01:10:10Immediately.
01:10:13Sir, this wasn't Miss Brooks' directive.
01:10:16I can't override her decision.
01:10:18I'm sorry.
01:10:19What happened?
01:10:21Don't have quite the pull you thought you had?
01:10:24Welcome to reality, boy.
01:10:28We already understand.
01:10:30No one fucked with us, got it?
01:10:35Mrs. Anderson, Miss Brooks made an inspired choice in you.
01:10:39You're truly impressive.
01:10:41I'm still so young.
01:10:50I think you owe me an apology.
01:10:57Don't touch me.
01:10:58Don't touch you.
01:11:00Don't touch you.
01:11:01Or what?
01:11:10Nancy!
01:11:11Nancy!
01:11:37Who did this?
01:11:50You?
01:11:51You're the guest I invited?
01:11:53You're Ashley?
01:11:55You're that woman in the sales office.
01:11:58Are you stalking us, too?
01:12:00You see, I told you.
01:12:02These three, they're in it together.
01:12:05The washed up old hag, the wild little slut, and that disgusting gimp.
01:12:10All here to stir up trouble.
01:12:12Uh-oh.
01:12:13That's Lauren Brooks.
01:12:15Oh, my God.
01:12:17And you heard what that woman just called her?
01:12:19I don't think they actually know Miss Brooks.
01:12:24What is wrong with you people?
01:12:27They're all fake.
01:12:29Call the police, Stephen.
01:12:40How dare you publicly humiliate Miss Brooks.
01:12:44Miss Brooks?
01:12:48Ashley Morgan?
01:12:50Yeah, that's me.
01:12:52I can't believe it.
01:12:54You really don't recognize me?
01:12:58I don't know.
01:13:00Look at me.
01:13:01You stand here mocking her, humiliating her, shoving her around in public, and yet you feel
01:13:10nothing.
01:13:12I know you really want this contract, Ashley, but I don't want to give it to you anymore.
01:13:17No, you can't do that, Miss Brooks.
01:13:20Oh, wait.
01:13:23I am so stupid.
01:13:25I mean, Miss Brooks, of course they recognize you.
01:13:28I mean, everyone knows your family.
01:13:31Enough!
01:13:32Miss Brooks, we were wrong.
01:13:34We see that now.
01:13:35Please have some mercy.
01:13:37We didn't mean any harm.
01:13:39Well, let us make it up to you, all right?
01:13:44Don't play innocent with me.
01:13:47I heard every word you said to Nancy.
01:13:50And I'm sure you all said and did worse when you were alone with her.
01:13:54Miss Brooks, I'm sorry.
01:13:55I can see we got off on the wrong foot.
01:13:57Look, we know we messed up, but the project, that's business, right?
01:14:02Forget the contract.
01:14:04Forget business.
01:14:06What about family?
01:14:07Why are you saying this to me?
01:14:10I'll tell you.
01:14:12But first, answer me this.
01:14:17Who is she?
01:14:23Who is that woman?
01:14:27Say it, Ashley Morgan.
01:14:30Right here, in front of everyone.
01:14:34Tell everyone who this woman really is.
01:14:40Say it, Ashley.
01:14:42Who is she?
01:14:46Miss Brooks, I don't know what you're talking about, but it should have nothing to do with our contract.
01:14:57We're professionals.
01:15:02I, I, I, I can't handle this anymore.
01:15:06I shouldn't be here.
01:15:07I wasn't made for this big city life.
01:15:12I've, I've never been anything but worthless.
01:15:16You can't let them treat you like this.
01:15:18You're not what they say.
01:15:21You're the most precious person I've ever known.
01:15:25Miss Brooks, please just let her leave.
01:15:27Don't allow her to ruin the evening.
01:15:31Our evening?
01:15:33Is that all you care about?
01:15:35The contract?
01:15:36Money?
01:15:37Miss Brooks, I'm sorry, but I...
01:15:40Ashley.
01:15:41You kicked Nancy out of your wedding.
01:15:44You humiliated her while buying a house.
01:15:48And now you just stand here watching as your mother-in-law bullies and abuses her.
01:15:54Not even a stranger deserves to be treated like this.
01:15:59But she's not a stranger, is she?
01:16:03Tell me.
01:16:04Who took care of you when you were sick?
01:16:08Who stayed up with you when you had a nightmare?
01:16:12Who gave up everything?
01:16:15Everything!
01:16:16To give you a better life.
01:16:20She's not some random woman.
01:16:22She's not even your aunt.
01:16:25She's the reason you exist.
01:16:27So why is it so hard to admit that she is your mother?
01:16:35She's Mrs. Anderson's mother?
01:16:38Her mother was right there and she refused to acknowledge her?
01:16:43And she even humiliated her in public.
01:16:46How terrible.
01:16:47How do you know that?
01:17:06She's your mother, Ashley.
01:17:08You told me that she was traveling the world.
01:17:11That she wasn't even in the country.
01:17:13Ashley, you told me that she was just a distant aunt.
01:17:17Ashley, you lied to us.
01:17:19Your mother is just a dirty old woman.
01:17:22Ashley, this woman raised you.
01:17:26Gave her all for you.
01:17:30Provided a home full of love.
01:17:33And you denied her like she was nothing.
01:17:39Ungrateful brat.
01:17:40If she would betray her mother like that, how could anyone ever trust her?
01:17:45Honestly, I feel bad for that poor woman.
01:17:49All right.
01:17:50You all asked for this.
01:18:07Lauren.
01:18:09Lauren.
01:18:09Miss Ruth.
01:18:10I'm so sorry.
01:18:13Are you really trying?
01:18:15Please, please give me another chance.
01:18:17Miss Ruth.
01:18:18We were wrong.
01:18:20We were very wrong.
01:18:22We were decent people.
01:18:24Really?
01:18:25I promise.
01:18:26From now on, I'm going to treat Nancy with the most utter respect.
01:18:32I'm not the one you should be kneeling to.
01:18:47Oops.
01:18:49Accidents.
01:18:50Stephen.
01:18:54Stephen.
01:18:55Help me.
01:18:58Leave me out of this.
01:18:59Stephen.
01:19:00Stephen.
01:19:02I didn't ask for this.
01:19:03I didn't do anything.
01:19:05Stephen.
01:19:06But you did ask for this.
01:19:09You son of a bitch.
01:19:34I'm just going to cut up in all of this.
01:19:37It's been so hard!
01:19:41I was blind! I see that now!
01:19:44I was just awful!
01:19:47It could change for you! And for Willow!
01:19:51Don't forget your granddaughter! Mother...
01:19:57I didn't know it was yours. I promise
01:20:00from now on, I'll treat you like my own mother!
01:20:06See?
01:20:09What a wild ride!
01:20:13You know what it's like for women of our age.
01:20:16We have to keep our appearances.
01:20:20Let's not dwell in the past. Let's be friends, dear.
01:20:27Whatever you just say, Mum.
01:20:29I'm with you.
01:20:34Let's be friends.
01:20:36Let's be friends.
01:20:51You've been waiting for your family to take care of the Lord.
01:20:54Let's be friends of mine and we're by God.
01:20:55Ashton,
01:20:58I can see I've been a source of shame for you.
01:21:03And that's a hard thing for a mother to accept.
01:21:15Yes, I come from the countryside, and yes, I've led a humble life, which some might consider
01:21:29poor. Since I've come to town, I've been harassed, mistreated, lied to, and lied about.
01:21:47Ashley, I can see how I've embarrassed you. I'm not the kind of mother you want. She
01:21:54is. I've made peace with that, and I'll be okay, really. But from now on, you are not my daughter.
01:22:14No! Mom, please don't do that!
01:22:19No! Mom, please don't do that! Please, please wait!
01:22:30Ashley Anderson and the entire Anderson family are blacklisted from Brooks Group's projects.
01:22:37I'll personally ensure every one of our partners know, no one works with you ever again.
01:22:44Furthermore, I will have my lawyer investigate all that you did to my mother, and you will
01:22:52be held accountable to the full extent of the law.
01:22:58No!
01:23:10This can't be real! We're finished! We're ruined!
01:23:15Stupid girl! This is your fault!
01:23:19Destroy the family!
01:23:20I will kill you!
01:23:32Ma, let's go home.
01:23:55This was your favourite. Try it. I used your recipe.
01:24:00Should we go to the gardens this afternoon? I remember you said you wanted to plant some roses.
01:24:07Thank you. Both. You know, being here with you, it's more than I could ever ask for.
01:24:16If you didn't hear a certificate, why you're doing that for the things?
01:24:33Let's have this one in here.
01:24:37Let's have this one in here.
01:24:39Got this one in for your giveaway.
01:24:42Want to take an exam?
01:24:43That's you?
01:24:43For your only threeinen or two-yearri실히持 Major so much.
01:24:44Let's talk about this one.
01:24:45Hello, honey.
01:24:48Do you know this lady, Willow? Is she like your mom?
01:24:53Of course not. My mom's on vacation in Europe.
01:24:56No, I'm not Willow. I am right here.
01:24:58You're mistaken, ma'am. I've never seen you before in my life.
01:25:02Yeah, let's go in this case. Let's go to the coffee shop. Just have some bread.
01:25:11Madam, isn't that your daughter Miss Anderson?
01:25:13Would you like to go say hello?
01:25:16No need. I only have one daughter.
01:25:19Now let's go home.
01:25:43I know.
01:25:56I'll never say hello.
01:25:56The second one is still going to sleep.
01:25:57I'm going to sleep.
01:25:57I'm going to sleep.
01:25:57If you have a baby, not with you.
01:25:57I'm going to sleep.
