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.
00:00:20Anyway, 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, can we talk over there?
00:01:05What are you doing here? I told you not to come.
00:01:08Well, I...
00:01:10Every mother wants to see their little girl walk down the aisle.
00:01:14I brought you...
00:01:16Some 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.
00:01:50And you just couldn't make it.
00:01:52Now you just show up out of the blue.
00:01:54How am I even gonna 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.
00:02:12And 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?
00:02:30Uh...
00:02:31This...
00:02:32This is my...
00:02:33My Aunt Nancy.
00:02:34She just...
00:02:35She just...
00:02:35Dropped in.
00:02:37Got it.
00:02:38Welcome.
00:02:39Why don't you just invite your aunt in?
00:02:40Okay.
00:02:41Yeah, yeah.
00:02:41Of course.
00:02:44Okay.
00:02:45Fine.
00:02:46But 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 of the world.
00:03:10I hear she has no family attending the wedding.
00:03:14That's so sus.
00:03:14They say she comes from poor's.
00:03:17She's probably some country hick who somehow clawed her way into the Anderson family.
00:03:25Well...
00:03:27What are you talking about?
00:03:29Who else?
00:03:30The bride, of course.
00:03:33You 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.
00:03:41Even 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.
00:03:50It's alone.
00:03:50Plus shit.
00:03:53None of what you're saying is true.
00:03:56Ashley is kind and thoughtful.
00:03:59And she may have a humble background.
00:04:02But she's rich in character.
00:04:04Who are you anyway?
00:04:06You know, usually the janitors don't show up until after the wedding.
00:04:12Look at her clothes.
00:04:13Yes.
00:04:14My socks cost more than a clothes set.
00:04:19Wait, wait.
00:04:20Don't tell me she's related to the bride.
00:04:23That would be...
00:04:23Yikes.
00:04:25As a matter of fact...
00:04:27Yes.
00:04:28I'm here for Ashley.
00:04:30Ha!
00:04:30I knew it.
00:04:34I almost feel sorry for Ashley.
00:04:37She worked so hard to hide people like you from us.
00:04:42Little princess must be mortified.
00:04:45You're here.
00:04:49Mortified?
00:04:50What am I doing to embarrass her?
00:04:54And what would you know about my bank account?
00:04:57Oh my god lady.
00:04:58Do I really have to spell it out for you?
00:05:00That sad little outfit of yours wouldn't even hit 50 bucks.
00:05:04What 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 do.
00:05:21Having a word with your manager about hiring better staff.
00:05:25Look at you.
00:05:26Filthy.
00:05:27Ma'am, I'm not part of the staff.
00:05:30Please, you 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.
00:05:38I'm with you, Lucy.
00:05:39It doesn't look like she belongs here.
00:05:44Well, 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.
00:05:56I don't think so.
00:05:59Who are you really?
00:06:00I think you should leave before I call security.
00:06:05I'm not leaving.
00:06:07I'm here to see Ashley.
00:06:10But Ashley didn't put you on the list, did she?
00:06:14Or are you here hoping for a handout?
00:06:17I 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,
00:06:32then you've just pulled this off yourself, haven't you?
00:06:41Lucy, maybe just let it go.
00:06:43It's your son's big day.
00:06:45You shouldn't be getting your hands dirty.
00:06:47No way.
00:06:48That 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.
00:07:01Really?
00:07:02Let's see what delightful little treasures that you've dragged in here.
00:07:06I'm here.
00:07:10Incredible.
00:07:13Preserves.
00:07:19Dried meat.
00:07:24And a scarf that smells like the bottom of a stable.
00:07:37Shall I show you what we do with the trash?
00:07:43Help!
00:07:45What are you doing?
00:07:46Stop.
00:07:48Somebody help me, please!
00:07:51I told you.
00:07:52I couldn't do what the fuck I love.
00:07:58I'm Ashley.
00:08:01MOTHER!
00:08:07LIFE!
00:08:09Ashley's mother is vacationing
00:08:11in Switzerland.
00:08:13Although my daughter-in-law's family
00:08:15may not be at our level,
00:08:18they are very respectable.
00:08:20What the hell are you?
00:08:23Did she really say that?
00:08:25Of course!
00:08:26Did you really
00:08:28think you could come waltzing
00:08:30in here and ruining my
00:08:32son's wedding?
00:08:34You're not the first
00:08:36freeloading fraud that I've
00:08:38encountered.
00:08:40Don't worry, everyone.
00:08:42This old bag lady,
00:08:44she won't be troubling us much longer.
00:08:46Yeah, kick her ass out.
00:08:48I'm sick of her from the
00:08:50little face.
00:09:01What?
00:09:02Are you crazy?
00:09:03Are you gonna murder me
00:09:05in public?
00:09:06Why not?
00:09:07Who'd even notice if you were gone?
00:09:16Mother?
00:09:20Mother?
00:09:25Mother...
00:09:27Ashley, do you know
00:09:28this woman?
00:09:30So why wasn't she on the guest list?
00:09:33That's my...
00:09:34Uh, a distant relative.
00:09:37Aunt Nancy.
00:09:39She dropped by last minute.
00:09:40Yes, we...
00:09:42met her at the entrance.
00:09:44I'm...
00:09:46I'm her Aunt Nancy.
00:09:50Your mother's in Switzerland,
00:09:52that's right, isn't it?
00:09:54Yes, of course.
00:09:56Lying's not going to get you very far
00:09:58in my world.
00:09:59Your niece,
00:10:01my daughter-in-law,
00:10:04isn't going to follow your
00:10:06tall tales.
00:10:08Okay?
00:10:09Auntie?
00:10:21I...
00:10:23I never wanted any of this.
00:10:25I just wanted to see Ashley happy.
00:10:28Happy?
00:10:30With you here?
00:10:34Well...
00:10:39Maybe this will cheer everybody up.
00:10:58Oh, my God.
00:10:59Oh, my God.
00:11:06Mother, she...
00:11:07She really didn't mean to cause a fuss.
00:11:09She just really wanted to see me get married.
00:11:11You're defending...
00:11:13this...
00:11:14marmalade woman?
00:11:17You know...
00:11:18I call you my daughter-in-law.
00:11:20But...
00:11:21it's not official yet.
00:11:23Do you still want to marry my son?
00:11:26Yes, of course, Mother.
00:11:28Good.
00:11:29Then I'll give you one more chance.
00:11:32Sure, Mother.
00:11:33I'll...
00:11:33I'll...
00:11:33I'll...
00:11:33I'll...
00:11:33I'll...
00:11:34Nancy, I'm sorry, but...
00:11:36you have to...
00:11:37Oh, no, no, no, dear.
00:11:39That's not enough.
00:11:42Go over...
00:11:43and slap her...
00:11:44in her ugly, peasant face.
00:11:47It's that or you can forget about joining our family.
00:11:52Come on, Ashley.
00:11:53Everything's ready.
00:11:54Stop wasting time.
00:11:55Give her a quick slap and let's move on.
00:11:58Ashley...
00:12:00Look at me.
00:12:04What has happened to you?
00:12:06Look.
00:12:09Look at who I am.
00:12:11Shut up.
00:12:12That's enough.
00:12:13I know who you are.
00:12:16Sorry, Mom.
00:12:18This is my future.
00:12:20You wanted me to have everything.
00:12:22So...
00:12:23You just have to forgive me.
00:12:44I can't believe you'd hit me.
00:12:45Get out.
00:12:48I can't believe you'd hit me.
00:12:52How could you?
00:12:54I mean...
00:12:55You're her what?
00:12:57You're just some...
00:12:58hillbilly, distant relative
00:13:00from the middle of nowhere.
00:13:03Just look at you.
00:13:04That outfit.
00:13:06Standing amongst your betters.
00:13:09If you're not ashamed,
00:13:10we are on your behalf.
00:13:12Amen to that, Mrs. Anderson.
00:13:15You know, if the press catches onto this,
00:13:16it will be all over the feeds tomorrow.
00:13:19A total tabloids candle.
00:13:22Ashley...
00:13:24How could you treat me like this after all these years?
00:13:28It's so pathetic.
00:13:30She's still acting like she matters.
00:13:38Say something.
00:13:41Tell them.
00:13:44Tell them who I am.
00:13:47Mom.
00:13:48I...
00:13:49Yes, Ashley.
00:13:51Yes, I'm here.
00:14:00I'm sorry, Mom.
00:14:02I...
00:14:02I can't admit it.
00:14:06I'm getting weary with this charade.
00:14:09Is there going to be a wedding or not?
00:14:11Or shall we just call this whole thing off?
00:14:14Ashley, come on.
00:14:16This is our big day.
00:14:17Are you siding with my mother or this...
00:14:19this vagabond?
00:14:20Do you even want to marry me?
00:14:23Of course.
00:14:24Of course.
00:14:25I...
00:14:26I didn't mean that at all.
00:14:30Please, just stop.
00:14:33Just tell them you were wrong.
00:14:35And leave quietly.
00:14:37For me.
00:14:39But what...
00:14:40What did I do wrong?
00:14:42I...
00:14:42I just came to see you get married.
00:14:46She's a persistent little bumpkin.
00:14:48I'll give her that.
00:14:49I guess you have to be persistent to survive out in the wilderness.
00:14:54Okay.
00:14:55Enough.
00:14:55Just go.
00:14:57I don't want you here.
00:14:59Leave now.
00:15:03I'm sorry.
00:15:05I'm just a poor woman from the countryside.
00:15:10I shouldn't have called.
00:15:14Not bad.
00:15:16Well, since you came all this way, all by uninvited,
00:15:21let me offer you some dessert.
00:15:30I bet you've never seen anything quite this exquisite in your whole miserable life.
00:15:37Bon Appetit.
00:16:13Oh, another pear tainted.
00:16:16Oh, another pear tainted.
00:16:24Alright.
00:16:26Now get out.
00:16:28Before you taint this wedding any further.
00:16:32Alright.
00:16:34I'll go.
00:16:38Congratulations, Ashley.
00:16:41I hope you have a happy marriage.
00:16:45Of course she'll be happy.
00:16:46She's marrying my son.
00:16:48How could she not?
00:16:51And...
00:16:51Don't forget your gifts.
00:16:54Yeah, I don't need them.
00:16:56I don't.
00:17:00My friend.
00:17:09Hello.
00:17:13I hope she's going to join the create.
00:17:15Pretty good.
00:17:15I hope she's going to go.
00:17:15She wants to be a new episode.
00:17:15The end.
00:17:29Ashley, I only wanted to see you happy.
00:17:34I still hope you will be.
00:17:51Ms. Brooke, our client is waiting up to him.
00:18:10I'm going to let you turn up the phone.
00:18:14Ma?!
00:18:17It really is you!
00:18:21It's me!
00:18:22Lauren!
00:18:25Look, Lauren, is it really you?
00:18:30Ma was always so kind to me.
00:18:32I mean, she adopted me and raised me as her own.
00:18:36Now you're both my precious girls.
00:18:40Then in college, my birth parents reached out after the hurricane.
00:18:44Everything was so confusing and I was so lost.
00:18:48Now I've got all this money and a new life, but God, I still miss Ma so much.
00:18:53I searched for you for years.
00:18:57I didn't know if you survived the hurricane.
00:19:02What happened?
00:19:07Mom, I reconnected with my birth parents.
00:19:12So much has happened.
00:19:14I thought you'd all forgotten about me.
00:19:19Never, never.
00:19:29Mom, let's go home.
00:19:45Oh, Lauren, I can't go inside.
00:19:47I don't belong here.
00:19:49I should go.
00:19:50Mom, what are you saying?
00:19:53You're family.
00:19:54My home is your home.
00:19:57Lauren!
00:19:59Who's this?
00:20:03This is my adoptive mother.
00:20:06The woman who raised me.
00:20:08Mom, this is William.
00:20:11He is my-
00:20:12Another mother.
00:20:13Lauren, this is a lot to drop on somebody.
00:20:16How am I supposed to process this?
00:20:18Lauren, what other secrets are you hiding?
00:20:20What else is there?
00:20:22I'm sorry, Lauren.
00:20:24I should go.
00:20:25I'll only be in the way here.
00:20:28No!
00:20:29No, please.
00:20:30Stay.
00:20:31Lauren, I don't want to come between you and your boyfriend.
00:20:35Ma, you are not just an outsider.
00:20:38Okay?
00:20:39Forget him.
00:20:40Let's just go inside.
00:20:45Babe, I wish you told me your mother was coming in advance.
00:20:48Could have gotten a nicer gift.
00:20:50Nancy, I'm William.
00:20:51I'm Lauren's fiance.
00:20:53Please excuse my behavior from earlier.
00:20:55Sometimes I can get a little bit anxious.
00:20:57But no excuse, okay?
00:20:59Come inside.
00:21:00Take your shoes off.
00:21:00Let's get comfortable.
00:21:02Hopefully you can accept this gift from me as well.
00:21:07Thank you, William.
00:21:10Did you say Lauren's fiance?
00:21:15Yes, Mom.
00:21:17I'm doing well.
00:21:18You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:21:21No, that's more like it.
00:21:25Come on.
00:21:26Let's go inside.
00:21:28And chill.
00:21:33What a disaster of a wedding you've pulled off.
00:21:37Embarrassing.
00:21:38Chaotic.
00:21:39You're pulling up on your own and you bring in this distant aunt to humiliate me.
00:21:45Mother, I'm sorry.
00:21:47No, sorry doesn't cut it.
00:21:50You barely earn anything and you can't even afford a goddamn housekeeper.
00:21:55I could ask my little Nancy to help her in the house.
00:21:58She'll do it for real cheap and she'll do whatever you want.
00:22:02Right?
00:22:03But if she doesn't make this place sparkle, she will not get a penny.
00:22:20My shoes are dirty.
00:22:22My socks have holes in them.
00:22:24I should just stay here.
00:22:35Hey, don't worry about it.
00:22:37This floor, it was made for you to walk on.
00:22:42Mom.
00:22:45You've worked your whole life.
00:22:47You gave me everything.
00:22:49You shouldn't have to feel like a stranger in your own daughter's home.
00:22:56Both.
00:23:06You don't need to be nervous.
00:23:09This is your home now.
00:23:12You can retire.
00:23:14Enjoy life.
00:23:15Exactly.
00:23:18I never thought I'd be able to quit working, much less live like this.
00:23:24It's all a little overwhelming, to be honest.
00:23:27By the way, Mom, what brought you to the city?
00:23:29I came for Ashley's wedding.
00:23:31Oh my God, really?
00:23:34Ashley married?
00:23:36That's Mom's biological daughter.
00:23:38We grew up together.
00:23:39I remember you said you had a sister, but you didn't really say much about her.
00:23:44We haven't been in touch in forever.
00:23:45We lost contact after college.
00:23:48Who did she marry?
00:23:50Steven Anderson.
00:23:52Oh, the Andersons.
00:23:54I like them.
00:23:55They have a company with great growing potential.
00:23:58Good for Ashley.
00:24:00Yeah.
00:24:02You seem like a good match.
00:24:13Hey, Mom, it's me.
00:24:16Ashley, about earlier.
00:24:19Yeah, forget it.
00:24:21Hey, can you come to my house tomorrow?
00:24:23Don't get the wrong idea.
00:24:24We're just really busy with the baby, and we need an extra hand.
00:24:27I assume you're not busy, right?
00:24:29Yes.
00:24:30No, yeah, no problem.
00:24:31I'm glad I can help.
00:24:33I can see my grandchild, right?
00:24:37Willow?
00:24:37Yeah, sure.
00:24:39Um, but just so you know, we can't pay you a lot.
00:24:42My finances are really tied up right now.
00:24:44I don't need money.
00:24:45I...
00:24:45Seeing you and my grandchild is more than enough.
00:24:49Uh, I...
00:24:50This means the world to me.
00:24:52Cool.
00:24:52I'll text you the address.
00:24:57Okay, Mom, it's done.
00:24:59She'll start with tomorrow.
00:25:02Well, she better do a good job, or she'll answer to me.
00:25:09Lauren, I think I have to leave.
00:25:12Ashley needs me.
00:25:14Oh.
00:25:15Is she okay?
00:25:16Oh, yes.
00:25:17Um, busy, you know.
00:25:20And I'm...
00:25:21I'm gonna go help out over there.
00:25:24Okay.
00:25:25I understand.
00:25:28Please come back soon.
00:25:32I'll send Ashley a gift.
00:25:34Something to help her with her career.
00:25:36We may not be close anymore, but we're still sisters, and I want you both to have the best
00:25:41life possible.
00:25:42Thank you, Lauren.
00:25:55Ashley, can you not do one thing right for a change?
00:25:59Ashley Muller's right.
00:26:02This wedding costs a fortune.
00:26:04I, um...
00:26:05I called Aunt Nancy.
00:26:07She will cook, clean, whatever.
00:26:09It'll save us a lot of time and energy.
00:26:11A bargain bin relative.
00:26:13Is that the single thing that you can bring to this marriage?
00:26:18Sad.
00:26:20Uh, sorry.
00:26:23Hello?
00:26:25The Brooks group wants to partner with me?
00:26:29I get a $5 million commission?
00:26:33What?
00:26:36Mom, Stephen, the Brooks group, they want to work with me, and I get $5 million.
00:26:42It's a miracle.
00:26:48Well, well, Ashley.
00:26:50I always knew you were a good girl, deep down.
00:26:56The Brooks group, they are the biggest corporation in the city, and this is going to
00:27:03triple out of business value.
00:27:05Ashley, baby, I knew you could do it.
00:27:09Tell me, how in the world did you land a deal with the Brooks group?
00:27:13I, honestly, I don't know.
00:27:16They said there's going to be a banquet next week, and we're going to sign the contract there.
00:27:20Oh, I am so proud of you, darling.
00:27:26Oh, um, Aunt Nancy.
00:27:27I'm coming.
00:27:28She's coming.
00:27:29Sorry.
00:27:31Uh, hey.
00:27:33So, remember, you're my Aunt Nancy.
00:27:36If you want to stay here, don't forget that.
00:27:38Got it?
00:27:48Stop right there.
00:27:51Look at your shoes.
00:27:53Covered in mud.
00:27:55You dare to walk in like that?
00:28:03Sorry.
00:28:04So sorry.
00:28:05Now, take off your shoes, kneel down, and clean every inch that you step.
00:28:16Then you can enter.
00:28:23Mom's right, Aunt Nancy.
00:28:24Just hurry up and clean the floor.
00:28:28Okay.
00:28:48That's much more like it.
00:29:00There's my itty-bitty baby.
00:29:04I'll go prepare the for me.
00:29:28Who is Mama's girl?
00:29:37That must be my granddaughter, oh sweet child, I'd stay here forever just for her.
00:29:52Hello Willow.
00:29:54Don't touch my granddaughter.
00:29:56She's my granddaughter too.
00:30:03Ashley insists you know how to cook.
00:30:06We'll see about that.
00:30:08You know we keep a very strict inventory around here.
00:30:13What is that?
00:30:14Supposed to mean you?
00:30:16You think I'd steal something?
00:30:18Of course, it's in your nature.
00:30:21I almost don't blame you.
00:30:24But if anything goes missing, I will blame you.
00:30:34If just one is unaccounted for, you will regret it.
00:30:57Who said you could eat with us?
00:31:01I don't understand.
00:31:04How many times do I need to explain it to you, dollard?
00:31:09Look at you, dressed like a beggar. Don't eat somewhere out of my sight.
00:31:15But what is etiquette to sit here?
00:31:20She is a professional nanny. An entirely other breed.
00:31:25We pay top dollar to have her take care of our children.
00:31:28Do you think you're in the same league?
00:31:30I just...
00:31:31Aunt Nancy, just go eat in the kitchen.
00:31:32I see.
00:31:47And we're here.
00:31:51I do not want to throw that out of my head.
00:31:53Andrew.
00:31:59Is it a toilet?
00:32:04What is that?
00:32:04Oh, it was a toilet.
00:32:04Dog bowl?
00:32:05Sorry, yeah, there's no other guest room.
00:32:07You'll just have to make do.
00:32:08We used to have a puppy in here, but we got rid of it.
00:32:11Mom hated the snout. It shed too much.
00:32:14Really? You make me sleep in a toilet room, curled up next to it.
00:32:21Toilet bowl?
00:32:23There's really no other room, okay?
00:32:25I mean, if you want to clear more space, you can get rid of the trash.
00:32:29There's some old towels. You can lay those out.
00:32:31There's even water. A dog could survive in here.
00:32:33I don't know what else you need.
00:32:37Ashley, bring me some grapes. Now!
00:32:40Coming, Mother!
00:32:44Oh, and don't forget to close the door. Mom hates the snout.
00:32:52Ashley, what happened to you?
00:32:55How can you do this to me?
00:33:03No! What are you talking about, Billy?
00:33:07You can't break up with me!
00:33:09Well, I don't consent!
00:33:14You loser!
00:33:22Drug you, you piece of shit!
00:33:26What's happening? I heard Willow crying.
00:33:29She sounds scared.
00:33:30It's nothing!
00:33:32What's that?
00:33:36Sleeping pills?
00:33:38Are you drugging Willow?
00:33:40She's...
00:33:40She's just a baby!
00:33:42Give it back!
00:33:43No!
00:33:43I wasn't doing anything!
00:33:45Drug me, bitch!
00:33:55What's going on in here?
00:33:57Ma'am, she was trying to give sleeping pills to Willow!
00:34:01I didn't, I swear!
00:34:03I walked in and...
00:34:07You're trying to hurt my grandchild!
00:34:09What's going on in here?
00:34:12Ashley, your aunt has tried to poison Willow!
00:34:16She's giving sleeping pills to a baby!
00:34:19I didn't!
00:34:21I swear, please listen to me!
00:34:23I...
00:34:26I didn't!
00:34:28It was her!
00:34:30I was trying to protect Willow!
00:34:33Mr. and Mrs. Anderson!
00:34:35You know my credentials!
00:34:37Why would I do this?
00:34:39You disgusting creature!
00:34:41I scold you a few times!
00:34:44And you take it out of my grandchild!
00:34:46Grandchild?
00:34:47No, no, no, no!
00:34:52Mother!
00:34:53Her arm is bruised!
00:34:55My poor Willow!
00:34:56How could somebody do something like this to you?
00:34:59Call the police!
00:35:00Now!
00:35:03This lady must have done it while I was in the kitchen!
00:35:05That's why Willow started crying!
00:35:07I came in here because I heard her crying!
00:35:11You have to believe me!
00:35:13You liar!
00:35:14I'll strip you down myself!
00:35:16And find the evidence!
00:35:17And then I'll hand you over to the police personally!
00:35:22I didn't do it!
00:35:24Leave me alone!
00:35:26You just pushed me!
00:35:28You dare lay a finger on me!
00:35:31Unlike a baby!
00:35:34I can fight back!
00:35:36You filthy cunt!
00:35:39Ashley!
00:35:40You know I could never do something like this!
00:35:44Steven!
00:35:44Maybe we should just...
00:35:46Just what?
00:35:47She's fucking trying to murder our child!
00:35:49Are you seriously sitting with her right now?
00:35:51No, of course not!
00:35:53Aunt Nancy!
00:35:54Just tell the truth!
00:35:56Was it you?
00:35:58No!
00:35:59Ashley!
00:36:01You don't believe me either!
00:36:04How could I do something like this?
00:36:07I'm Willows Graves!
00:36:09Shut up!
00:36:10You heard her!
00:36:12Shut up!
00:36:13Now take all your clothes off!
00:36:21Fine!
00:36:24I'll do it myself.
00:36:51I'm happy now, can I stop?
00:36:54No, take everything off.
00:36:57Do you need some help?
00:36:58No, no!
00:37:02No, no!
00:37:06I would never hurt a child.
00:37:11Nancy, if you wouldn't do it, just prove it already.
00:37:14Just take your clothes off.
00:37:15What?
00:37:18You'd have me strip completely.
00:37:24Your own.
00:37:27Okay, I'll do it.
00:37:32I'll do it, Ashley.
00:37:55I'll do it, Ashley.
00:38:03Now, admit it.
00:38:06Did you abuse Willow?
00:38:09I did not.
00:38:10Mother, maybe she really didn't do anything.
00:38:13Ashley, why do you even defend her?
00:38:15She hurt her child.
00:38:16Exactly.
00:38:17You take the side of a would-be murderer?
00:38:20You can choose.
00:38:22Either her, or this family.
00:38:28Aunt Nancy?
00:38:32Please leave now.
00:38:38Ashley?
00:38:45Get out, you vile vagabond.
00:38:53What is this?
00:39:01You think you could steal from us as well?
00:39:04Give that back.
00:39:06Only a few measly bills.
00:39:09Only a broke woman like you would treat this like treasure.
00:39:13Mr. and Mrs. Anderson wouldn't even bother to pick this amount up off the ground.
00:39:18I used such measly bucks to raise two daughters.
00:39:21I was able to give my children a better life out of the country and in the city.
00:39:26Oh, I am sure they are glad to be away from you, Hillbilly.
00:39:31I earned every cent I made through hard work.
00:39:35You think you're better than me?
00:39:37You think my money is worthless?
00:39:40I made a happy home.
00:39:42Earning this much every month.
00:39:45This is a month's income.
00:39:48Beautiful.
00:39:49No one here wants your paltry earnings.
00:39:53So get out.
00:39:54You delusional, impoverished...
00:39:58Beast!
00:40:10Mom?
00:40:16What is going on here?
00:40:20Who are you people?
00:40:21Dare you treat her like this?
00:40:29Forget it, Lauren.
00:40:31I just want to leave.
00:40:33Mom?
00:40:34Did they hurt you?
00:40:36No.
00:40:36No.
00:40:37They're...
00:40:38They're my employers.
00:40:40That's right.
00:40:41She works for us.
00:40:43Who cares if we gave her a little lesson?
00:40:45And who the hell are you?
00:40:47I'm her daughter.
00:40:48What?
00:40:50Mom only had me.
00:40:52Well, and Lauren.
00:40:54But who knows what happened to that poor foster girl.
00:40:57You liar!
00:40:59She's just a kind woman I met in the city.
00:41:03She's been helping me.
00:41:04I told her she reminded me of my daughter.
00:41:09You really like clinging to younger women.
00:41:14No children of your own to scam or did you run them off?
00:41:18Do not speak to her that way.
00:41:21Nancy is my family.
00:41:23She's still trash.
00:41:25The two of you deserve each other.
00:41:27A couple of lying beggars.
00:41:31Beggars!
00:41:33Do you know who I am?
00:41:35We don't care who you are.
00:41:37Ever heard of Brooks Group?
00:41:38The Brooks Group?
00:41:40What?
00:41:41Did you clean their toilets or something?
00:41:44You really have no clue, do you?
00:41:48Sweetheart, I don't feel well.
00:41:50Can we just go home?
00:41:52Of course, Mom.
00:41:53I'll take you home.
00:41:54You.
00:41:55You pathetic little bums.
00:42:10Mom, I'm here.
00:42:12Oh.
00:42:14Oh.
00:42:15Oh.
00:42:16Are you feeling all right?
00:42:17What did they do to you?
00:42:21Just say the word and I'll make them pay.
00:42:23I'm okay.
00:42:25Mom, you said you were going to Ashley's house.
00:42:27To help out.
00:42:29What happened?
00:42:31They hired a nanny for Willow, so they didn't need me and I found another job.
00:42:39But they don't need me either.
00:42:42Why are you putting yourself through this?
00:42:44Why won't you just stay with us?
00:42:46Honey, I've already caused you enough trouble.
00:42:49Oh.
00:42:51No, you haven't.
00:42:52We would be honored to have you live with us.
00:43:05I want you to treat yourself.
00:43:07I mean it.
00:43:11Spend as much as you want.
00:43:13There's no limit.
00:43:16Lauren, why are you so good to me?
00:43:22I'm just your adoptive mother.
00:43:24What are you talking about?
00:43:26You're a Brooks now and you belong with your kind.
00:43:33Listen, if you hadn't taken a median back then, I probably would have starved or frozen
00:43:39to death on the streets.
00:43:41And you gave everything, everything you had to me and Ashley.
00:43:47You have no idea how much I've missed you.
00:43:51I love you, Ma.
00:43:53Always.
00:43:55I love you too, Lauren.
00:43:58Good.
00:43:59I'm glad we agreed.
00:44:03Oh, I meant to tell you.
00:44:05Next week, I'm taking you to a banquet.
00:44:09A banquet?
00:44:10No, I don't know about that kind of thing.
00:44:13And I'd only embarrass you.
00:44:18That's impossible.
00:44:20Because the banquet is for you.
00:44:22And if you don't want to stay here, I won't force you.
00:44:26I'm buying you a new house anyway.
00:44:37Lauren, I don't know about this whole house idea.
00:44:41I could just go back to where I'm staying.
00:44:44Ma, it's a gift I'm happy to give.
00:44:47If the roles were reversed, you would do the same.
00:44:51Please accept it.
00:44:57I'm sorry, Ma.
00:44:58I gotta take this call.
00:44:59Don't worry, I have someone waiting to assist you.
00:45:10My manager said Miss Brooke's mother would be coming today.
00:45:13Could this be her?
00:45:15If it is, I have to make a good impression.
00:45:23Good day, Miss.
00:45:24May I help you?
00:45:26I don't really know how to do this.
00:45:28I'd be happy to show you everything on offer.
00:45:31Care to sit?
00:45:32Please, this way.
00:45:34Yeah, please, have a sit.
00:45:35Yes, yes.
00:45:37Here's some water.
00:45:41Oh, here's our brochure.
00:45:43All our properties are developed by Brooks Group.
00:45:46So, platinum tier quality.
00:45:57Ashley, I am so proud of you.
00:46:02This is the finest collection in the city.
00:46:06After the Brooks Group deal closes, I'll be able to afford the best of the best.
00:46:14Ashley, is that your Aunt Lance?
00:46:19What is she doing here?
00:46:21I think it's about time I stopped being so nice to her.
00:46:26How much is that one?
00:46:28Uh, it's only for 1.5 million.
00:46:321.5 million dollars?
00:46:35Yes, and a great value at that.
00:46:38Oh, if you're planning to live with your family, I'd recommend...
00:46:43Augustine model.
00:46:447,500 square feet, 6 baths, 6 bedrooms at 18 million dollars.
00:46:50Oh, that's far more than I need.
00:46:5218 million?
00:46:54That old hag couldn't afford that much in 18 lifetimes.
00:47:00Excuse me, who are you?
00:47:02Lucy Anderson, one of your top clientele.
00:47:06And that woman.
00:47:09Regrettably, she was our maid, and we had to fire her for misconduct.
00:47:13She's a liar.
00:47:15Don't waste any more time on her.
00:47:17That's right.
00:47:17She's a broke nobody.
00:47:19A grifter, cosplaying affluence.
00:47:21Wait, this isn't Miss Brooke's mother?
00:47:23Shit!
00:47:25I've been wasting my time with her.
00:47:27Monty, what are you doing?
00:47:28Just leave town and go home already.
00:47:31Ashley, do you really hate me so much?
00:47:35Am I such a disgrace to you?
00:47:38What happened to that sweet little girl I used to know?
00:47:42No.
00:47:45So what?
00:47:46I'm not good enough to even exist in this city?
00:47:49Ashley, why does she care so much about what you think?
00:47:52It's not like she's your mom or something.
00:47:57I don't know what you want from me.
00:47:59I was just being nice to you because you came all the way from the countryside.
00:48:03That's all.
00:48:04Some people, they just walk into the city and they think they belong in the city.
00:48:11The truth is, you're just a country bumkin.
00:48:16And you'll never be like us.
00:48:19You know what?
00:48:21That's right.
00:48:22I'll never be like you.
00:48:24I scrimped and saved my whole life so my family could have something better.
00:48:31You all think I'm poor, but I'm rich.
00:48:36In good memories of my...
00:48:39Of Ashley.
00:48:43Even if she's forgotten.
00:48:47You think I can't afford a home?
00:48:55That three-bedroom, two-bath model?
00:48:58Uh, Rivera model, yes.
00:49:00I'll take it.
00:49:01Full payment.
00:49:03Now.
00:49:04Of course.
00:49:05What?
00:49:05I'll grab the real car and the contract will be right away, okay?
00:49:11Now I'm wondering where you found this obviously fake car.
00:49:14Or maybe you stole it.
00:49:16Give it back!
00:49:17No, no, no, no, no.
00:49:17You want it now?
00:49:19You beg me.
00:49:20No, give it.
00:49:21Whatever you're doing, stop it, okay?
00:49:23But just embarrass yourself further.
00:49:25I know you don't have that kind of money.
00:49:26You do realize that these properties were developed by the Brooks Group.
00:49:31Elite only begins to describe their clientele.
00:49:35And this fake card isn't gonna work.
00:49:38Shall we now add fraud to your list of crimes?
00:49:43Sorry, Lauren.
00:49:44Just this once, I want to be selfish to prove myself.
00:49:53Sir, please rent the card.
00:49:57Of course, miss.
00:49:58Right away.
00:49:59Ashley, there's no way she has that kind of money, right?
00:50:02All set.
00:50:03Please swipe a card.
00:50:04That would be 1.5 million dollars.
00:50:07Go ahead, darling.
00:50:10Swipe it.
00:50:12Mom probably doesn't even have 10 grand, let alone a mil five.
00:50:18What am I doing?
00:50:19This is crazy.
00:50:21No matter what these people say, I can't spend Lauren's money like this.
00:50:261.5 million dollars?
00:50:28I must be out of my mind.
00:50:32Actually, I'm sorry.
00:50:33I can't buy this yet.
00:50:36Seriously?
00:50:37Sorry, my friend, but what the fuck, lady?
00:50:39I knew she was bluffing.
00:50:41It's probably the cheapest listing and she can't even afford it.
00:50:45Enough.
00:50:46Get out of the way.
00:50:47We're here to buy.
00:50:48Show me your most expensive property.
00:50:51Absolutely.
00:50:53I don't have it.
00:50:55I can't buy it.
00:50:56Ashley's about to get a huge payout, aren't you?
00:51:00I'm going to leverage some funds.
00:51:04Show me the most expensive listing.
00:51:07But that's 18 million.
00:51:09Your point?
00:51:10If you're not willing to contribute to this family,
00:51:12then why did you even marry my son?
00:51:15Ashley, you know Mother's right, as always.
00:51:17Of course, I'm sorry.
00:51:21I'm sorry, Lauren.
00:51:23I can't give up on Ashley.
00:51:26Please forgive me.
00:51:27Pardon me, sir.
00:51:29I was here first.
00:51:31The Augustine model, I believe you called it.
00:51:34I'll take it.
00:51:37Charge the card.
00:51:52Come on.
00:51:53Are you kidding me?
00:51:54The card even doesn't work.
00:51:56No, no, that's impossible.
00:51:58There must be money on it.
00:52:00I told you, she has no money.
00:52:03Lady, why don't you just hitchhike your way back to your little farm?
00:52:07You're getting in the way of your bettors.
00:52:10She's not buying the house.
00:52:11Yes, we are.
00:52:13But, I have one condition.
00:52:16Of course.
00:52:16Whatever you need.
00:52:18She's polluting the air.
00:52:20And if you want our business, slap her.
00:52:24Twice.
00:52:25But, Mother, isn't that...
00:52:27You dare defend her again?
00:52:30No.
00:52:31Of course not.
00:52:33Just a moment.
00:52:35Security!
00:52:38Slap this woman hard.
00:52:41Yes, sir.
00:52:43I meant for you to slap her, but...
00:52:46Watching these two men do it is quite delightful.
00:52:50I'll allow it.
00:52:51Get your hands off me!
00:52:57Stop!
00:53:00What is the meaning of this?
00:53:06Look, it's the little tramp accomplice.
00:53:10Excuse me, we're in the middle of the situation here.
00:53:13You can make an appointment if you want to.
00:53:16Don't bother with her.
00:53:17She's a con artist, like the old woman.
00:53:20Yeah, they're both loser nobodies.
00:53:24Exactly.
00:53:26Or are you about to claim you're some long-lost heir of the Rockefellers?
00:53:30Or perhaps a Brooks family's second cousin twice removed?
00:53:34Get rid of them now!
00:53:37Just a moment.
00:53:41Hello?
00:53:42There are three individuals causing a scene at the Riverfront sales office.
00:53:47Check the security footage to identify them.
00:53:49It's an elderly woman and a couple.
00:53:51They are blacklisted.
00:53:53Do not sell them any property at any price.
00:53:55They're permanently banned.
00:53:58Lady.
00:53:59You're embarrassing yourself.
00:54:00This is my curve.
00:54:02And what I say goes.
00:54:04Escort them out.
00:54:06Now!
00:54:08Ouch!
00:54:09My arm!
00:54:10Hey!
00:54:10Stormtrooper!
00:54:11Let her go!
00:54:12If you harm her, there'll be hell to pay.
00:54:17What on earth is going on in here?
00:54:21Who's creating such a ruckus?
00:54:25A black card.
00:54:29I can't believe that I almost didn't recognize our most VIP clientele.
00:54:35VIP or not, no one should be treated this way.
00:54:51You idiot!
00:54:53How did you not see the black card?
00:54:56Sir, please don't be fooled.
00:54:58The card was fake.
00:55:00The card had to respond.
00:55:02It's a fake.
00:55:02You're a fool!
00:55:03That is a black prestige card.
00:55:06There's no pen.
00:55:06There's no limit.
00:55:08Regular machines can't even read it!
00:55:11You.
00:55:11You have managed to insult our most VIP clientele.
00:55:16You are fired!
00:55:20No, please.
00:55:21Just...
00:55:21Just...
00:55:26Um...
00:55:28And...
00:55:30Huh?
00:55:33Uh...
00:55:33Uh...
00:55:35Everything has gone through perfectly.
00:55:38The property now officially belongs to you and we can begin processing your paperwork.
00:55:43Congratulations!
00:55:48I don't know what to say.
00:55:51I don't have to say anything.
00:55:53I don't have to say anything.
00:56:00What just happened?
00:56:01Oh my god.
00:56:03Are they part of the Brooks group?
00:56:09This can't be real.
00:56:11No way mom knows anyone in the Brooks family.
00:56:15No way mom knows anyone in the Brooks family.
00:56:15But that woman she met...
00:56:17She's clearly loaded.
00:56:18Who is she?
00:56:21Who is she?
00:56:21Listen, everybody.
00:56:23My Aunt Nancy has never left the countryside before.
00:56:26There is no way she has any connection to the Brooks group.
00:56:29This woman was sleeping on our floor.
00:56:32Begging to be our maid and...
00:56:35Yeah.
00:56:35She'll lie about anything.
00:56:37Yeah.
00:56:38Truly.
00:56:38Utterly.
00:56:39Pathetic.
00:56:40You absolutely have zero clue.
00:56:44I try to be patient but...
00:56:47Shut your bitch mouth.
00:56:51I just know who you are.
00:56:53A low class whore.
00:56:55Pretending to be part of this Brooks circle.
00:56:58We're the ones that have signed with the Brooks group.
00:57:01You don't say.
00:57:04You're really working with the Brooks group.
00:57:07Of course.
00:57:08I know you wouldn't know what it means to partner with them but...
00:57:13We're going to be the richest people in the city.
00:57:18Yeah.
00:57:19Even if you somehow could afford this place...
00:57:22You're still much lower than we are.
00:57:25Steven.
00:57:26Show them.
00:57:27We're going to buy the second most expensive property on your list.
00:57:30Mother, let's not be hasty.
00:57:33Until I sign, can we really afford to...
00:57:36Silence, child.
00:57:38This old bitch has bought the most expensive property on the list.
00:57:41And now you're telling us that we can't buy the second.
00:57:46Sorry.
00:57:47Let's just...
00:57:48Swipe the card.
00:57:57Yes, sir.
00:57:58Yes, sir.
00:58:00Understood, sir.
00:58:01I'm afraid I'm unable to sell you this property.
00:58:04Or any other property for that matter.
00:58:10Wait, what?
00:58:11Why?
00:58:12You're refusing to sell to us.
00:58:15You can't do that.
00:58:16Well, soon.
00:58:18Well, we are a private business.
00:58:20Therefore, we have the power to choose our own clients.
00:58:23Perhaps you should be asking yourself...
00:58:25Who was it that I pissed off?
00:58:28What?
00:58:28That doesn't make any sense.
00:58:30We didn't do anything wrong.
00:58:32My mom is a nobody.
00:58:33Pissing her off doesn't count.
00:58:35Well, that's something that you can contemplate on your own time and somewhere else.
00:58:40Now, get the hell out of here before I have security throw you out.
00:58:46Sell or don't sell.
00:58:48We don't care.
00:58:49But you'll regret it.
00:58:51Once this Brooks Group deal has gone through, you're gonna come begging back to us.
00:58:56You all just wait.
00:58:58Come on.
00:58:59Let's go.
00:59:00I'm looking forward to seeing how things go with the Brooks Group.
00:59:04And I look forward to shoving the deal down your fucking throat.
00:59:08Wherever you are.
00:59:10I'll find you.
00:59:13I'm seeing you.
00:59:25Hey.
00:59:26What's wrong?
00:59:28I don't know.
00:59:31I feel like Mom's hiding something from me.
00:59:34She's probably just overwhelmed.
00:59:37This is all new to her.
00:59:39And she has been through a lot.
00:59:42You know, maybe when she gets to the banquet and she sees Ashley and sees the surprise that
00:59:47you planned for her, she'll realize that everything's gonna be okay.
00:59:50Yeah.
00:59:52Maybe you're right.
00:59:56Yeah.
01:00:08Maybe you're right.
01:00:09Mr. and Mrs. Anderson.
01:00:11I hear you are working with the Brooks Group now.
01:00:14Quite impressive.
01:00:15They say this whole banquet isn't your owner, Miss Anderson.
01:00:18Our little Ashley is quite exquisite.
01:00:22No, no, not at all.
01:00:24I am just so grateful to have the opportunity to show the world who the Anderson family is
01:00:29and what we're capable of.
01:00:30Miss Anderson, we hope you'll remember us and we won't forget you.
01:00:34Oh, thank you.
01:00:36Of course.
01:00:52Oh, Lauren, I really shouldn't be here.
01:00:55I'm not dressed right.
01:00:57I don't belong in a place like this.
01:01:00Mom, you belong here more than anyone else.
01:01:05This banquet is for you.
01:01:10Damn it.
01:01:11It's the office.
01:01:12I have to take this.
01:01:14I have to take this.
01:01:15Mom, go on inside without me, okay?
01:01:18William will be right here.
01:01:20No, no, no, no.
01:01:21I can't go in alone.
01:01:23You'll be fine.
01:01:24You deserve this.
01:01:26You deserve to be seen.
01:01:33I'll be right back.
01:01:46Who's that?
01:01:48Dunno.
01:01:49Never saw her before.
01:01:51She's here?
01:01:53Stop.
01:01:54That old bag has no shame.
01:01:57She's beyond belief.
01:02:02Nancy.
01:02:05Well, hello there.
01:02:07You look a little thirsty.
01:02:09Allow me.
01:02:13I'll go home.
01:02:17I love her.
01:02:23Bye.
01:02:25Bye.
01:02:26I'm sorry.
01:02:30Bye.
01:02:31Am I okay?
01:02:32Oh, my goodness.
01:02:36I'm sorry.
01:02:39I'm sorry.
01:02:41Bye.
01:02:41No.
01:02:42I'm sorry.
01:02:43You think everything about me is cheap, don't you?
01:02:47As a matter of fact, I do.
01:02:49You could be dressed head to toe in Prada and you'd still be cheap underneath.
01:02:54No, no, not cheap.
01:02:57What?
01:02:59Do you even know what kind of an event this is?
01:03:04Stop following me.
01:03:06Go away.
01:03:08Who even is she?
01:03:09Doesn't look like someone Miss Brooks would invite.
01:03:12Who is she?
01:03:13She's just a maid we hired to clean floors and toilets.
01:03:18God knows how she's snuck in here.
01:03:20I am not a maid.
01:03:23Oh, that's right. Silly me, I forgot.
01:03:27We fired you.
01:03:29Now you're just an unemployed beggar that dresses up to make herself feel more important.
01:03:37Mother.
01:03:41Enough.
01:03:43I was invited by Miss Brooks herself.
01:03:48She's my daughter.
01:03:52My adopted daughter.
01:03:57You really are crazy.
01:03:59You're totally delusional.
01:04:05Sorry.
01:04:06You're Miss Brooks's mother.
01:04:09Then I must be her biological mother.
01:04:13Oh my God.
01:04:13Does that make us sisters?
01:04:18Is she for real?
01:04:19Dude, I know, right?
01:04:21She's not.
01:04:22Like someone that poor would even be allowed to adopt anyone.
01:04:26I know, right?
01:04:27I didn't even know Miss Brooks was adopted.
01:04:29That lady is either a liar or a loony.
01:04:32You people need to understand.
01:04:34This woman is dangerous.
01:04:37She's not just vain.
01:04:39She is vicious.
01:04:41She tried to kill my granddaughter.
01:04:53That's not true.
01:04:56It wasn't me.
01:04:58Shh.
01:05:06No.
01:05:08My bracelet.
01:05:09It's gone.
01:05:10It was on my wrist earlier.
01:05:16You.
01:05:17You have always been a thief and a fraud.
01:05:22Ladies and gentlemen, check your bags and your jewelry.
01:05:26Someone here has got sticky fingers.
01:05:29She's lying.
01:05:31I'm not a thief.
01:05:40Oops.
01:05:42Accident.
01:05:43Let's take a look inside your bag.
01:05:59You can't help yourself, can you?
01:06:01Please.
01:06:02Gaze upon this damnable wretch and curse her.
01:06:11Please.
01:06:13Why are you doing this to me?
01:06:16Don't try to play the victim.
01:06:18Everyone here saw it with their own eyes.
01:06:22Ashley, your aunt is the worst.
01:06:25It's not true.
01:06:26I didn't do it.
01:06:28Ashley, you have to believe me.
01:06:31You just came here to ruin Ashley's big moment.
01:06:36Do you really think she's going to defend you now?
01:06:38Mom's right.
01:06:40I swear, if you run things with Miss Brooks and cost me this deal, I will never forgive you.
01:06:45Ashley, do you think I'm a thief, Tim?
01:06:48Stop talking.
01:06:49You are so selfish.
01:06:51Why do you have to come and crash the most important day of my life?
01:06:54Leave me alone.
01:06:57Maybe I should teach you a lesson on behalf of Miss Brooks.
01:07:01I've sure she'd love to see it.
01:07:06Steven, hold her down.
01:07:08Stop!
01:07:09Don't do this!
01:07:10If you enjoy being a thief so much, I'll give you the thief's mark.
01:07:17And this is your grandchild as well.
01:07:20Ashley, please help me!
01:07:27Enough!
01:07:31Enough!
01:07:38Nancy, I'm sorry I'm late.
01:07:40Don't worry, I'm here now, okay?
01:07:42William, I made a mess.
01:07:45It's okay.
01:07:46Who's that?
01:07:47That's so, so expensive.
01:07:49Probably Miss Brooks' guest.
01:07:52Now it all makes sense.
01:07:54I wondered why she was so emboldened today.
01:07:57But she's found herself a sugar daddy.
01:08:00Or should I say...
01:08:01Sugar son!
01:08:02Yeah.
01:08:04She's old enough to be his mum.
01:08:06These people are monsters.
01:08:08Nancy's enjoyed so much.
01:08:10It's unforgivable.
01:08:23How dare you hate me!
01:08:29Are you out of your mind?
01:08:35The fuck, man?
01:08:37You people are deranged.
01:08:38None of you deserve to be here.
01:08:46How dare you!
01:08:48Do you know who I am?
01:08:50Oh.
01:08:51I know exactly who you are.
01:08:53You're the people that have been abusing Nancy this whole time.
01:08:56God.
01:08:58So what?
01:09:00People like her?
01:09:01She's a nobody.
01:09:02Pathetic.
01:09:03People like her deserve to be stepped on.
01:09:06That's what they're there for.
01:09:08Listen, Pa.
01:09:09We do guests of Miss Brooks.
01:09:11You don't wanna fuck with us!
01:09:12Yeah, I don't care who you are or what your relationship is with my...
01:09:16With her.
01:09:18I suggest you leave.
01:09:19Well, since none of you have any remorse, we won't go easy on you.
01:09:24You're threatening us.
01:09:25Do you know the power of the Brooks family?
01:09:28We are Miss Brooks' guest of honor.
01:09:31Mom.
01:09:35Mrs. Anderson, Miss Brooks has finalized the project agreement.
01:09:38Here's your contract.
01:09:40It just needs your signature.
01:09:42See?
01:09:43I warned you.
01:09:44Told you to leave.
01:09:45And now you're fucked.
01:09:49Sorry, Mom.
01:09:51But this contract means everything to me.
01:09:55Cancel the deal and cut ties with the entire family.
01:10:00Immediately.
01:10:03Sir, this was Miss Brooks' directive.
01:10:07I can't override her decision.
01:10:08I'm sorry.
01:10:10What happened?
01:10:12Don't have quite the pull you thought you had?
01:10:15Welcome to reality, boy.
01:10:19We already understand.
01:10:20No one fucked with us, got it?
01:10:26Mrs. Anderson, Miss Brooks made an inspired choice in you.
01:10:29You're truly impressive.
01:10:31I'm still so young.
01:10:40I think you owe me an apology.
01:10:47Don't touch me.
01:10:49Don't touch you, or what?
01:10:59Nancy!
01:11:01Uh.
01:11:03Uh.
01:11:07Uh.
01:11:15Ah.
01:11:21What?
01:11:22You're stuttering to her.
01:11:28Who. Did. This.
01:11:40You. You're the guest I invited.
01:11:43You're Ashley.
01:11:45You're that woman in the sales office.
01:11:48Were you stalking us too?
01:11:50You see, I told you. These three, they're in it together.
01:11:55The washed up old hag.
01:11:57The wild little slut and that disgusting gimp.
01:12:00All here to stir up trouble.
01:12:02Uh oh. That's lore improves.
01:12:05My god. And you heard what that woman just called her?
01:12:09I don't think they actually know Miss Brooks.
01:12:14What is wrong with you people?
01:12:17They're all fake.
01:12:18Call the police Steven.
01:12:30How dare you publicly humiliate Miss Brooks.
01:12:34Miss Brooks?
01:12:38Ashley Morgan?
01:12:40Yeah, that's me.
01:12:42I can't believe it.
01:12:44You really don't recognize me?
01:12:49I don't know.
01:12:50I don't know.
01:12:50Look at me.
01:12:51You stand here mocking her.
01:12:54Humiliating her.
01:12:56Shoving her around in public.
01:12:58And yet, you feel nothing.
01:13:02I know you really want this contract, Ashley, but I don't want to give it to you anymore.
01:13:07No.
01:13:08You can't do that, Miss Brooks.
01:13:10Oh, wait.
01:13:11I am so stupid.
01:13:15I mean, Miss Brooks, of course they recognize you.
01:13:18I mean, everyone knows your family.
01:13:21Enough!
01:13:22Miss Brooks, we were wrong.
01:13:24We see that now.
01:13:25Please have some mercy.
01:13:27We didn't mean any harm.
01:13:29Let us make it up to you, alright?
01:13:34Don't play innocent with me.
01:13:36I heard every word you said to Nancy.
01:13:40And I'm sure you all said and did worse when you were alone with her.
01:13:44Miss Brooks, I'm sorry.
01:13:45I can see we got off on the wrong foot.
01:13:47Look, we know we messed up, but the project, that's business, right?
01:13:52Forget the contract.
01:13:54Forget business.
01:13:56What about family?
01:13:58Why are you saying this to me?
01:14:00I'll tell you.
01:14:02But first, answer me this.
01:14:07Who is she?
01:14:13Who is that woman?
01:14:17Say it, Ashley Morgan.
01:14:20Right here, in front of everyone.
01:14:24Tell everyone who this woman really is.
01:14:30Say it, Ashley.
01:14:32Who is she?
01:14:36Miss Brooks, I don't know what you're talking about.
01:14:42But it should have nothing to do with our contract.
01:14:47We're professionals.
01:14:51I, I, I can't handle this anymore.
01:14:55I shouldn't be here.
01:14:57I wasn't made for this big city life.
01:15:02I've never been anything but worthless.
01:15:05Miss Brooks.
01:15:06You can't let them treat you like this.
01:15:08You're not what they say.
01:15:10You're the most precious person I've ever known.
01:15:14Miss Brooks, please just let her leave.
01:15:17Don't allow her to ruin the evening.
01:15:21Our evening?
01:15:23Is that all you care about?
01:15:24The contract?
01:15:26Money?
01:15:27Miss Brooks, I'm sorry, but I-
01:15:29Ashley, you kicked Nancy out of your wedding.
01:15:33You humiliated her while buying a house.
01:15:38And now you just stand here watching as your mother-in-law bullies and abuses her.
01:15:44Not even a stranger deserves to be treated like this.
01:15:48But she's not a stranger, is she?
01:15:51Tell me.
01:15:54Who took care of you when you were sick?
01:15:57Who stayed up with you when you had a nightmare?
01:16:02Who gave up everything?
01:16:05Everything!
01:16:06To give you a better life.
01:16:10She's not some random woman.
01:16:12She's not even your aunt.
01:16:15She's the reason you exist.
01:16:16So why is it so hard to admit that she is your mother?
01:16:24She's Mrs. Anderson's mother?
01:16:27Her mother was right there and she refused to acknowledge her.
01:16:32And she even humiliated her in public.
01:16:36How terrible.
01:16:37How do you know that?
01:16:42Wait.
01:16:49Oh my god.
01:16:52You're Lauren?
01:16:55She's your mother Ashley?
01:16:57You told me that she was traveling the world.
01:17:00That she wasn't even in the country.
01:17:03You told me that she was just a distant aunt.
01:17:07Ashley, you lied to us.
01:17:08Your mother is just a dirty old woman.
01:17:11Ashley, this woman raised you.
01:17:15Gave her all for you.
01:17:19Provided a home full of love.
01:17:22And you denied her.
01:17:26Like she was nothing.
01:17:28Ungrateful brat.
01:17:30If she would betray her mother like that,
01:17:32how could anyone ever trust her?
01:17:35Honestly, I feel bad for that poor woman.
01:17:38Alright.
01:17:39You all asked for this.
01:17:54I'm sorry.
01:17:57I'm sorry.
01:18:00I'm sorry.
01:18:01I am so sorry.
01:18:02I am at Julia.
01:18:04Please.
01:18:05Please give me another chance.
01:18:07Please.
01:18:07We were wrong.
01:18:09We were very wrong.
01:18:11We're strong, we're decent people, really.
01:18:14I promise, from now on, I'm gonna treat Nancy with the most utter respect.
01:18:21I'm not the one you should be kneeling to.
01:18:37Oops, accidents.
01:18:44Stephen!
01:18:44Help me!
01:18:47Leave me out of this.
01:18:48Stephen!
01:18:50Stephen!
01:18:51I didn't ask for this.
01:18:52It didn't do anything.
01:18:54Stephen!
01:18:55But you did ask for this, you son of a bitch.
01:19:13Mom.
01:19:15Mommy.
01:19:19I know I fucked up.
01:19:23I just got caught up in all of this.
01:19:25It's been so hard.
01:19:30I was blind.
01:19:32I see that now.
01:19:33I was just awful.
01:19:36It could change for you.
01:19:39And for Willow.
01:19:40Don't forget your granddaughter.
01:19:43Mother.
01:19:44Mother.
01:19:46I didn't know it was yours.
01:19:48I promise, from now on, I'll treat you.
01:19:51I'll treat you like my own mother.
01:19:54Nancy.
01:19:58What a wild ride.
01:20:02You know what it's like for women of our age.
01:20:05We have to keep our appearances.
01:20:08Come on, let's not dwell in the past.
01:20:11Let's be friends, dear.
01:20:15Whatever you decide, Mom.
01:20:18I'm with you.
01:20:44Ashley.
01:20:46I can see I've been a source of shame for you.
01:20:52And that's a hard thing for a mother to accept.
01:21:02Yes.
01:21:04I come from the countryside.
01:21:09And yes.
01:21:11I've led a humble life.
01:21:15Which some might consider poor.
01:21:19Since I've come to town.
01:21:21I've been harassed.
01:21:24Mistreated.
01:21:26Lied to.
01:21:27Lied about.
01:21:33Ashley.
01:21:36I can see how I've embarrassed you.
01:21:39I'm not the kind of mother you want.
01:21:42She is.
01:21:43I've made peace with that.
01:21:45And I'll be okay.
01:21:47Really.
01:21:49But from now on.
01:21:55You are not.
01:21:58My daughter.
01:22:03No.
01:22:04Mom.
01:22:05Please don't do that.
01:22:08No.
01:22:10Mom.
01:22:11Please don't do that.
01:22:13Please.
01:22:14Please wait.
01:22:18Ashley Anderson and the entire Anderson family are blacklisted from Brooks Group's projects.
01:22:26I'll personally ensure every one of our partners know.
01:22:30No one works with you ever again.
01:22:33Furthermore.
01:22:34I will have my lawyer investigate all that you did to my mother.
01:22:39And you will be held accountable to the full extent of the law.
01:22:46No.
01:22:55No.
01:22:58This can't be real.
01:23:00We're finished.
01:23:02ruin.
01:23:04Stupid girl.
01:23:05This isn't your fault.
01:23:08Destroy the family.
01:23:09I will kill you.
01:23:11I will kill you.
01:23:20Ma.
01:23:22Let's go home.
01:23:23We'll kill you.
01:23:24We'll kill you.
01:23:25And cause you're just so cold out.
01:23:28Come on.
01:23:29No.
01:23:34No!
01:23:36No!
01:23:38No!
01:23:43This was your favorite. Try it. I used your recipe.
01:23:48Should we go to the gardens this afternoon? I remember you said you wanted to plant some roses.
01:23:55Thank you. Both.
01:23:58You know, being here with you, it's more than I could ever ask for.
01:24:03If I'd done it.
01:24:22It's ugly, Mr.
01:24:24that are the worst? Not
01:24:29again.
01:24:37Do you know this lady, Willow?
01:24:38Is she like your mom?
01:24:41Of course not.
01:24:42My mom's on vacation.
01:24:43In Europe.
01:24:44No, I'm not Willow.
01:24:45I'm right here.
01:24:47You're mistaken, ma'am.
01:24:48I've never seen you before in my life.
01:24:50Yeah, let's go in this case.
01:24:50Let's go to the coffee shop.
01:24:52Just have some bread.
01:24:59Madam, isn't that your daughter, Miss Anderson?
01:25:02Would you like to go say hello?
01:25:04No need.
01:25:05I only have one daughter.
01:25:07Now let's go home.
01:25:22Let's go.
