00:04Daddy, it's shiny shoes, bring shiny moods!
00:10What did you call me?
00:13Daddy?
00:15How many times have I told you?
00:17Do not call me Daddy, it's Uncle Marcus.
00:23Miss Wheatley?
00:25If you have a problem, take it out on me, not our daughter.
00:28Miss Wheatley?
00:31Have you been drinking again?
00:35Marcus, I told you to not show up drunk around our daughter.
00:38Oh please, our daughter.
00:40I never wanted a daughter with a gold digger like you anyway.
00:43Delilah's who I wanted to have a daughter with.
00:45I am your wife, Marcus, and Arya is just a kid.
00:48If you really love Delilah that much, then go to England and be with her.
00:52Please don't fight.
00:54I promise not to call you Daddy again.
00:56I'm sorry.
00:59I just had a little too much to drink, okay?
01:02Go play with your mom.
01:04Wait, Uncle Marcus.
01:06Are you still eating cake with me?
01:09Arya's birthday?
01:13We booked dinner at Nobu.
01:15You promised you'd come.
01:17She's been looking forward to it all month.
01:21I'll be there.
01:28Maybe we can still fix this.
01:30Maybe Marcus will come around.
01:37Sweetie, go finish making your stars.
01:40Mommy will be right there.
01:41Okay.
01:46Theo, I told you.
01:48Never call this number.
01:48Sherry, turn on the news.
01:50Now.
01:53Once I have a thousand stars, I can make a wish.
01:57My wish is for Daddy to love me.
02:04I'm standing in front of the Royal London Hospital, where the Duke of Westminster was admitted last night.
02:10The doctors have yet to release any official information about his condition.
02:13His eldest son.
02:15Shh.
02:16What's wrong, Mommy?
02:17He's next in line for the title.
02:19Nothing, sweetheart.
02:20It's okay.
02:21His daughter, however, Sherry Grosvenor, who disappeared from public view, is yet to be seen.
02:29My real name is Sherry Grosvenor, daughter of the Duke.
02:33Seven years ago, I got pregnant with Arya.
02:36I decided to leave everything behind and marry Marcus, the man that I love.
02:42But now...
02:45Father is stable for now, but he wants to talk.
02:48Sherry, you need to come back to him.
03:03Mommy, I don't think Daddy's coming.
03:06Sweetie, Daddy's... Daddy's probably just stuck in traffic.
03:10Don't worry.
03:11He said he'd come.
03:22Come on, Marcus.
03:28Marcus!
03:29Hey, where are you?
03:32I'm busy.
03:33Daddy, stop calling me.
03:35Okay.
03:45I'm sorry, ma'am, but we're closing.
03:47Here's the check.
03:53Mommy, what's wrong?
03:55No.
03:57Baby, I...
03:59Daddy, he's...
04:01He's...
04:01It's okay, Mommy.
04:02I know it's because I don't have a thousand stars yet.
04:07Daddy will love me once I make my wish.
04:10Mommy, can we go back home so I can make more stars?
04:14Yes, baby.
04:16Yes, baby.
04:16Let's go home.
04:25That's Delilah.
04:26His first love.
04:28She's back and...
04:30They have a daughter together?
04:33What's wrong, Mommy?
04:36Nothing, sweetie.
04:37Nothing at all.
04:38Mommy, why are you crying?
04:40It's okay.
04:42I'm not sad.
04:44Daddy will love me once I make my wish.
04:48This is all my fault.
04:49Forcing myself to stay in a loveless marriage.
04:52Hoping one day Marcus will love me back.
04:55Hurting Aria along the way.
04:57Depriving her of a happy childhood.
04:58I can't let this go on any longer.
05:02Aria.
05:03What do you say?
05:05We...
05:05Move somewhere new.
05:07Like England.
05:08With a new family.
05:11Will Daddy be there?
05:15No, sweetie.
05:17Daddy will stay in Chicago.
05:20Can we give Daddy three more chances?
05:22I'll try three more times.
05:24If he still won't love us, we can leave.
05:30If he still won't love us, we can leave.
05:38Shhh.
05:40Mark.
05:45I'm so happy to finally see you again.
05:48Through all these years, Marcus.
05:50I can't believe you didn't tell me we have a daughter.
05:52I missed out on the first eight years of her life.
05:58You're not her father, idiot.
06:00Her real father is rotting in jail.
06:03But now that you're rich, I don't mind for you to play Daddy.
06:10It's...
06:10It's been really hard, Marcus.
06:13And I just...
06:14I didn't want to burden you.
06:16But after being away for so long...
06:18It just made me realize...
06:20You're the only man for me.
06:23That's why I moved back here with Brielle.
06:26So we can finally be together as a family.
06:28You're the only...
06:38Marcus, what's wrong?
06:40Nothing.
06:41Never mind.
06:42I thought I saw someone.
06:48Three more chances, Marcus.
06:50That's all you get.
07:03Long time no see, baby sis.
07:08Seriously, Theo?
07:09Did you really have to be this flashy?
07:11Oh, relax, mate.
07:12Well, I flew all the way here to this unsophisticated, bloody country to see you.
07:17And you ought to even give your dear old brother a hug.
07:19America has really rubbed off on you.
07:22That was father.
07:25He's stable.
07:25We got lucky this time.
07:27It wasn't a full-blown stroke, but a TIA.
07:30Or mini-stroke, they call it.
07:31But he wants you to come back right away.
07:33Yeah.
07:35I should have listened to father.
07:37He was right.
07:38All along.
07:42Marcus...
07:43He had a daughter with Delilah.
07:46I saw them together last night.
07:48That cheater!
07:49After all you've done for him?
07:51After you forced me to help him with his company and make him rich?
07:55You need to divorce him right away.
07:58Yes, Theo.
08:00Can we give daddy three more chances?
08:03I'll try three more times.
08:05But Arya wants to give him three more chances.
08:10Three more?
08:11Just three more, Theo.
08:12And then I will bring Arya back to England, where he will never find us.
08:17Ever again.
08:24I fucking knew it!
08:26Well, good thing I hired a private investigator to look into Marcus.
08:30Turns out he's married to some dumb bitch with a daughter.
08:36What's wrong, Mommy?
08:38Hi, sweetheart.
08:39If you want to continue to live the rich life, you know, the good life,
08:45Mommy needs you to help win Daddy Marcus over.
08:49But Marcus is not my daddy.
08:51Well, from now on he is.
08:53Otherwise we'll go broke.
08:54No more nice things.
08:56Do you understand?
08:58Yes, Mommy.
09:04Wait, Mommy.
09:06I know this girl.
09:07Her name is Arya.
09:09And we're in the town show together.
09:12Really?
09:14How?
09:25I'm saving this seat for Daddy.
09:28I think I've heard you say Daddy about 800 times today.
09:31I think my ears might fall off.
09:33This is the first time he's ever come to see me perform.
09:44Hello?
09:44Miss Williams, could you stop by the office?
09:47Of course.
09:47Yeah, I'll be right there.
09:49Sweetie, hang tight.
09:50Mommy will be right back, okay?
09:51Okay.
09:59Seriously?
10:00She needed a whole seat for Dad and not even coming?
10:03Don't touch that seat.
10:05It's for my dad.
10:09Mommy.
10:10I know this girl.
10:12Her name is Arya.
10:14Ryo?
10:15Yes?
10:16Mommy needs you to do something, okay?
10:19Mommy has the perfect plan.
10:23Ow!
10:24Stop it!
10:24That hurts!
10:28Ow!
10:29Stop it!
10:30That hurts!
10:31I do have a dad.
10:33And he's coming today.
10:34You'll see.
10:35You're right, loser.
10:37Everybody knows you were raised by a single mom.
10:46Rumor is, your mom had so many boyfriends, she doesn't even know who your dad is.
10:52Like mother, like daughter.
10:54You stay away from her, sweetie.
10:56You don't want to pick up her bad habits.
10:59You too, honey.
11:00Don't play with her.
11:01Ever.
11:07Your dad looks your mom's trash.
11:10No wonder he doesn't want you.
11:12Don't talk about my mom like that.
11:16Liar!
11:18Loser!
11:19He's real.
11:21My dad is real.
11:23He will come.
11:34Excuse me.
11:35Is this where the talent show is happening?
11:53Daddy!
11:54You're here!
11:57Her dad actually showed up.
11:59We were wrong.
12:00All his dad is so handsome.
12:02Wait.
12:03Is that Marcus Williams?
12:05The CEO of a Williams group?
12:08No wonder he never came.
12:10He's probably drowning in a million dollar deals.
12:14Daddy!
12:15This is your new seat!
12:17What did you call me?
12:20I...
12:20I'm sorry.
12:22You know you're not supposed to call me that.
12:26Uncle Marcus?
12:29Wait.
12:30He's not her dad?
12:33Told y'all she was lying.
12:35She made her a fake dad.
12:37She was too embarrassed to admit she didn't have one.
12:42I'm not lying.
12:43You so are.
12:45That is my dad.
12:46And the only woman he loves is my mom.
12:49Mom!
12:51Sherry.
12:52I'm gonna erase both you and your daughter from Marcus's life.
12:56I'm the only one who can be the future Mrs. Williams.
13:01No!
13:03No!
13:04He's not your dad.
13:06He's my dad.
13:08Stop lying!
13:09Stop lying!
13:29No!
13:31My stars!
13:32My wishing jar!
13:33Aria!
13:36Aria!
13:38Aria!
13:39No!
13:40Stop!
13:41Those are my wishing stars!
13:43Ow!
13:43Ow!
13:44It hurts!
13:45It hurts!
13:46Baby, are you okay?
13:47Grandma, remember what mommy told you?
13:50My...
13:50She punched me!
13:52My arm was broken!
13:54It hurt!
13:56Aria, apologize to Freya!
13:59Nah!
14:03No!
14:04You are my daddy.
14:06I'm not lying!
14:07I don't want to say sorry to her.
14:09She stepped on me first!
14:14You did nothing wrong, sweetheart.
14:17Really, Marcus?
14:18Bullying an eight-year-old?
14:21So, it's true then, Marcus...
14:24That's your daughter and...
14:26She's your mistress?
14:32No. No, she's just my employee. That's her daughter, not mine.
14:42Arya, I didn't come to watch you. I came to watch Brielle perform.
14:48What?
14:50What?
14:51You're just confused because you go to the same school. Apologize to Brielle.
14:59Oh, my stars got crushed. That's why my wish didn't work.
15:05I'm sorry, Brielle. Uncle Marcus is your dad. I'm just a girl.
15:13No dad.
15:17Was that too hard?
15:20You do not need to apologize to her. Marcus, I swear to God.
15:25It's okay, Mom. It's my fault. I couldn't protect my wish in the stars.
15:33That's why my wish didn't work.
15:37Oh, my God. It's just stars. We're nice and new ones.
15:40Money. Do you really think this is about money?
15:45So are yourself. You're bleeding.
15:49Uncle Marcus, I made these for you.
16:01You made these for me?
16:07Yes. Arya folded every single one of these.
16:10Over a thousand. Do you know how many days and nights it would take to fold all of those?
16:17Huh?
16:18No.
16:19And she only had one wish.
16:21And that was for you to love her back.
16:34I'm so sorry, Arya.
16:39That was the worst chance.
16:44Two more chances, Marcus.
16:46Better not mess that up.
16:48Two more chances? What are you talking about?
16:51Mommy, when his three chances are up, I want to leave with you.
16:58Are you sure you won't work on it?
17:00I'm sure.
17:05Hey, where are you going? And what are you talking about two chances?
17:10Where are you going? And what are you talking about two chances?
17:13Well, that's for me to know and you to find out, Marcus.
17:17Come on. Let's go take care of your hands.
17:24You are going to love London.
17:26I promise.
17:28I can't wait for you to meet Uncle Feodora and Grandpa Edmund.
17:33Will they like me?
17:35Or will they be like Daddy and hate me too?
17:38Sweetheart,
17:40they love you already.
17:43They haven't even met you yet.
17:46So that's what family means.
17:48Oh, promise.
17:49But not Daddy.
17:54Miss Sherry, you leaving?
17:56Miss Monroe came into town just to hear Arya play live.
17:59Wait, you're Miss Evelina,
18:02the famous pianist.
18:04You're my idol!
18:06And I'm a fan of yours, Arya.
18:08If your live performance matches the video I saw,
18:11I've got a little surprise waiting for you.
18:16Mommy, can I play just one last song, please?
18:21Of course.
18:28Welcome, everyone,
18:30to our Nova Elementary Talent Show.
18:32First up,
18:34Brielle Smith.
18:36Brielle Smith.
18:38Brielle Smith.
18:40Brielle Smith.
18:40Brielle Smith.
18:41Brielle Smith.
18:42Brielle Smith.
18:43Brielle Smith.
18:43Brielle Smith.
18:45Brielle Smith.
18:46Brielle Smith.
18:47Brielle Smith.
18:47Brielle Smith.
18:48Oh, dear God.
18:50That piano did not deserve this.
18:52No skill, no soul.
18:55She's not my program's sake.
19:09Up next, Aria.
19:18She's a liar.
19:19Nobody wants to hear her perform.
19:23She's a liar.
19:25She's fake.
19:25Give us a stage.
19:27Boo!
19:30Boo!
19:33No, this is a school talent show, not a riot.
19:36Anyone throwing anything else will be escorted out.
19:39I wasn't lying.
19:40Marcus is my dad.
19:43I'm about to play this song for him.
19:45I hope he likes it.
19:54This one's for you, Daddy.
20:19Such talent.
20:21That's what a piano prodigy sounds like.
20:37That was amazing, baby.
20:39I'm so proud of you.
20:45Was I, was I too cruel to Aria?
20:49I am proud to announce today's first place winner is Aria.
21:02Aria, I would like to personally invite you to a three-week summer program at Juilliard.
21:07You'll train with the best and brightest.
21:10What do you say?
21:12Yes!
21:13Yes, that's my dream!
21:16No, Mommy.
21:17I should be the one to go.
21:18I want to go!
21:20Oh, I'm sorry, I swear.
21:22Marcus, is there something you can do?
21:24Some strings you can pull?
21:26Aria's been privileged her whole life.
21:28Okay, and Brielle's had nothing.
21:29What do you want me to do?
21:32You know what?
21:33I guess you don't care about Brielle.
21:35No, of course not.
21:39Brielle's my daughter, too.
21:41I will handle it.
21:54Sweetie, that was amazing!
21:57Are you happy?
21:58Uh-huh.
21:59Hey, Aria.
22:02Sweetheart, you did so good.
22:05That was a fantastic performance.
22:07Really?
22:08You like my song, Uncle Marcus?
22:10I loved it.
22:12And, from now on,
22:14you can call me Dad.
22:24Oh, my God.
22:26Marcus just admitted it.
22:28Aria is his daughter.
22:30Which means Delilah is a homewrecker.
22:33What are you pulling now, Marcus?
22:36It's okay.
22:37Go on, say it.
22:43Daddy!
22:45Thanks, Daddy!
22:46You are a great little piano player.
22:50And I know I messed up and hurt you.
22:55And I am so sorry.
22:57Daddy saw how talented I am.
22:59And now he loves me!
23:01And even though I wasn't at your birthday,
23:03I did
23:05get these cupcakes for you.
23:07Huh?
23:11Go on, try it.
23:12See if you like it.
23:13Daddy loves me now
23:14because I played well at the talent show.
23:20This is the first cupcake I've ever had.
23:23Is it possible
23:24Marcus is finally accepting Aria as his daughter?
23:28Okay, Aria.
23:29Well, now that you've finally had your birthday cupcake
23:32and you can call me Dad,
23:35could you do one
23:37tiny little favor for me?
23:39I'll do anything for Daddy.
23:42Could you
23:45give up your spot
23:46at the Juilliard piano camp
23:47and let Brielle go instead?
23:53Could you
23:54give up your spot
23:55at the Juilliard piano camp
23:56and let Brielle go instead?
23:59Are you even human, Marcus?
24:02She is a child
24:03and you're using her
24:04as a warthening ship?
24:07So that's what it takes.
24:10If she wants you so bad,
24:13she can have you.
24:15I'll give her everything.
24:16Even
24:18you, Daddy.
24:23Thanks for the cake, Daddy.
24:26I'll give Brielle the spot
24:29Oh.
24:30And you just lost
24:31your second chance.
24:41You've always been mean to me, Daddy.
24:44But this is the first cake
24:45you've ever given to me.
24:47So I'm gonna eat every bite.
24:50I didn't come to watch you.
24:51I came to watch Brielle before.
24:52Apologize to Brielle
24:53now.
24:54Do not call me Dad.
24:55It's Uncle Marcus.
24:59Wait.
25:01Strawberry.
25:02Aria, no, you're allergic!
25:04Somebody call 911 now, please!
25:06We need an ambulance right now.
25:08I didn't know she was
25:09allergic to strawberries.
25:10I had no idea.
25:11Of course you didn't.
25:12You have ignored her
25:14for eight years.
25:15For eight years,
25:16you have acted like
25:17she doesn't even exist.
25:18You wouldn't even let her
25:19call you Dad!
25:20You don't deserve
25:21to be her father
25:23and you never did!
25:26He cheated on his wife
25:28and now he's out here
25:29abusing his daughter?
25:31Oh, he is a real
25:32piece of shit.
25:34It is over, Marcus.
25:35We are getting a divorce.
25:37Aria, no, no, no, no.
25:39I don't want to.
25:39I don't want to.
25:42I hear a divorce.
25:42Aria!
