Short filmTranscript
00:00:03Eight years. It's been eight long years since I last saw my little Ashley. Today's the day I
00:00:11finally get to see my daughter get married. Happy birthday, sweetheart. Thanks, Mom. Your presents
00:00:19are always my favorite. Anyway, today is Ashley's big day and Mom is here with your favorite gifts.
00:00:33Whoa, lady, stop, stop. You don't want to try panhanding here and no loitering neither. Do yourself a favor.
00:00:41This is a high-end joint and you clearly don't belong here. So get out before I drag you out.
00:00:49Wait, stop. Hold on a second. Miss Anderson.
00:00:54Ashley.
00:01:01Mom, can we talk over there?
00:01:07What are you doing here? I told you not to come.
00:01:10Well, I, every mother wants to see their little girl walk down the aisle.
00:01:16I brought you some of your favorites from home. Strawberry jam, turkey turkey, and I needed you
00:01:27with this scarf. Are you serious right now? What am I supposed to do with all of these? Do you
00:01:34have any
00:01:34idea who I'm marrying? Oh, my God. It smells like a barn.
00:01:43Ashley, I can see you. Don't want me here. Can I just watch?
00:01:48No, Mom.
00:01:50I told everyone that you were traveling abroad and you just couldn't make it.
00:01:54I mean, now you just show up out of the blue. How am I even going to explain that?
00:02:01I'm sorry. I didn't know. I thought it would be a nice surprise.
00:02:08Mom, you work too hard. When I grow up, I'm going to take you to the fanciest restaurant and go
00:02:15on a beach vacation.
00:02:17Thank you, sweetheart. I thought you would be happy to see me.
00:02:23Ashley.
00:02:27Who's this?
00:02:33This. This is my, um, my Aunt Nancy. She just dropped in.
00:02:39Got it. Welcome. Why don't you just invite your aunt in?
00:02:43Okay, yeah, yeah, of course.
00:02:46Okay, fine. But don't embarrass me. Remember, your aunt, Nancy.
00:03:05It's magnificent. My little girl is marrying into a whole other world.
00:03:12I hear she has no family attending the wedding. That's so sus.
00:03:17They say she comes from poor's.
00:03:19She's probably some country hick who somehow clued her way into the Anderson family.
00:03:28Well, what are you talking about?
00:03:30Who else? The bride, of course.
00:03:36You can tell by her posture alone that she comes from broke trash.
00:03:39But she acts like she's a goddamn princess.
00:03:42Yeah. Even her mother didn't show up.
00:03:45Either Ashley is ashamed or mom abandoned her.
00:03:50Either way, it's a low-plus shit.
00:03:56None of what you're saying is true.
00:03:58Ashley is kind and thoughtful.
00:04:01And she may have a humble background, but she's rich in character.
00:04:06Who are you, anyway?
00:04:08You know, usually the janitors don't show up until after the wedding.
00:04:14Look at her clothes.
00:04:16My socks cost more than half the clothes set.
00:04:21Wait, wait. Don't tell me she's related to the bride.
00:04:25That would be... yikes.
00:04:27As a matter of fact, yes, I'm here for Ashley.
00:04:32Ha! I knew it.
00:04:36I almost feel sorry for Ashley.
00:04:39She worked so hard to hide people like you from us.
00:04:45Little princess must be mortified.
00:04:47You're here.
00:04:51Mortified?
00:04:53What am I doing to embarrass her?
00:04:56And what would you know about my bank account?
00:04:59Oh my god, lady.
00:05:00Do I really have to spell it out for you?
00:05:02That sad little outfit of yours wouldn't even hit 50 bucks.
00:05:06What the hell is going on in here?
00:05:10You.
00:05:12What the hell is going on in here?
00:05:15You.
00:05:17You just standing there.
00:05:19Get back to work.
00:05:20Setting tables or whatever it is that you people do.
00:05:23I'm having a word with your manager about hiring better staff.
00:05:27Look at you.
00:05:29Filthy.
00:05:30Ma'am, I'm not part of the staff.
00:05:32Please, you don't expect me to believe that you're on my list.
00:05:37Lucy, actually, yes.
00:05:38She's here to support Miss Ashley, apparently.
00:05:41And with you, Lucy, it doesn't look like she belongs here.
00:05:47Well, someone's obviously mistaken.
00:05:50Because I went through the guest list myself and Ashley never mentioned somebody like her.
00:05:56Well, maybe you missed it.
00:05:58I don't think so.
00:06:01Who are you really?
00:06:03I think you should leave before I call security.
00:06:07I'm not leaving.
00:06:10I'm here to see Ashley.
00:06:12But Ashley didn't put you on the list, did she?
00:06:17Or are you here hoping for a handout?
00:06:20I mean, these gifts of the bride and groom, they're not for guests.
00:06:28All I wanted was to be here for Ashley.
00:06:31Fine.
00:06:32If you want to continue with this madness, then you've just pulled this off yourself, haven't you?
00:06:44Lucy, maybe just let it go.
00:06:46It's your son's big day.
00:06:48You shouldn't be getting your hands dirty.
00:06:50No way.
00:06:51That lady deserved it.
00:06:52Somebody had to teach her a lesson.
00:06:54I'm not here to cause trouble.
00:06:58I'm just here for the ceremony and to bring some gifts for the bride.
00:07:04Really?
00:07:05Let's see what delightful little treasures that you've dragged in here.
00:07:13Incredible.
00:07:16Preserves.
00:07:23Dried meat.
00:07:26And a scarf that smells like the bottom of a stable.
00:07:40Shall I show you what we do with the trash?
00:07:46No!
00:07:47What are you doing?
00:07:49Stop!
00:07:50Somebody help me, please!
00:07:52I told you, but I can do what the fuck I love!
00:08:00I'm Ashley!
00:08:04Mother!
00:08:12Ashley's mother is vacationing in Switzerland.
00:08:16Although my daughter-in-law's family may not be at our level, they are very respectable.
00:08:23And what the hell are you?
00:08:25I don't know.
00:08:26Did she really say that?
00:08:28Of course.
00:08:30Did you really think you could come waltzing in here and ruining my son's wedding?
00:08:37You're not the first freeloading fraud that I've encountered.
00:08:42Don't worry, everyone.
00:08:44This old bag lady, she won't be troubling us much longer.
00:08:49Yeah, kick her ass out.
00:08:51I'm sick of her from the little face.
00:09:04Why are you crazy?
00:09:06Are you gonna murder me in public?
00:09:08Why not? Who'd even notice if you were gone?
00:09:19Mother?
00:09:23Mother?
00:09:27Mother.
00:09:30Ashley, do you know this woman?
00:09:33So why wasn't she on the guest list?
00:09:35Uh, that's my, uh, uh, a distant relative.
00:09:40Aunt Nancy, um, she dropped by last minute.
00:09:43Yes, we met her at the entrance.
00:09:48I'm, I'm her Aunt Nancy.
00:09:53Your mother's in Switzerland, that's right, isn't it?
00:09:56Yes, of course.
00:09:59Lying's not going to get you very far in my world.
00:10:02Your niece, my daughter-in-law, isn't going to follow your tall tales.
00:10:11Okay, Auntie?
00:10:24I, I never wanted any of this.
00:10:27I just wanted to see Ashley happy.
00:10:31Happy? With you here?
00:10:40Well, maybe this will cheer everybody up.
00:10:45Maybe this will cheer everybody up.
00:11:09Mother, she, she wouldn't even need to cause a fuss.
00:11:12She just really wanted to see me get married.
00:11:14You're defending this marmalade woman?
00:11:20You know, I call you my daughter-in-law, but it's not official yet.
00:11:26Do you still want to marry my son?
00:11:29Yes, of course, Mother.
00:11:32Good. Then I'll give you one more chance.
00:11:35Sure, Mother, I'll, I'll, I'll, I'll have her leave now.
00:11:37Aunt Nancy, I'm sorry, but you have to...
00:11:40Oh, no, no, no, dear. That's not enough.
00:11:44Go over and slap her in her ugly peasant face.
00:11:50It's that or you can forget about joining our family.
00:11:54Come on, Ashley. Everything's ready.
00:11:56Stop wasting time. Give her a quick slap and let's move on.
00:12:02Ashley, look at me.
00:12:06What has happened to you?
00:12:08Look.
00:12:09Look.
00:12:11Look at who I am.
00:12:14Shut up. That's enough.
00:12:16I know who you are.
00:12:19Sorry, Mom.
00:12:20This is my future.
00:12:22You wanted me to have everything.
00:12:25So you just have to forgive me.
00:12:50I can't believe you'd hit me.
00:12:55How could you?
00:12:57I knew you're...
00:12:58You're her what?
00:13:00You're just some hillbilly distant relative from the middle of nowhere.
00:13:05Just look at you. That outfit.
00:13:09Standing amongst your betters.
00:13:11If you're not ashamed, we are on your behalf.
00:13:15Amen to that, Mrs. Anderson.
00:13:17You know, if the press catches on to this, it will be all over the feeds tomorrow.
00:13:21A total tablered scandal.
00:13:25Ashley?
00:13:26How could you treat me like this after all these years?
00:13:29It's so pathetic.
00:13:32She's still acting like she matters.
00:13:41Say something.
00:13:44Tell them.
00:13:47Tell them who I am.
00:13:50Mom, I...
00:13:52Yes, Ashley.
00:13:53Yes, I'm here.
00:14:03I'm sorry, Mom.
00:14:05I...
00:14:05I can't admit it.
00:14:09I'm getting weary with this charade.
00:14:12Is there going to be a wedding or not?
00:14:14Or shall we just cool this whole thing off?
00:14:17Ashley, come on.
00:14:18This is our big day.
00:14:20Are you siding with my mother or this vagabond?
00:14:23Do you even want to marry me?
00:14:26Of course.
00:14:28I didn't mean that at all.
00:14:33Please, just stop.
00:14:36Just tell them you were wrong.
00:14:37And leave quietly.
00:14:40For me.
00:14:42But what...
00:14:43What did I do wrong?
00:14:45I just came to see you get married.
00:14:49She's a persistent little bumpkin.
00:14:51I'll give her that.
00:14:52I guess you have to be persistent to survive out in the wilderness.
00:14:57Okay.
00:14:57Enough.
00:14:58Just go.
00:14:59I don't want you here.
00:15:01Leave now.
00:15:05I'm sorry.
00:15:08I'm just a poor woman from the countryside.
00:15:12I shouldn't have called.
00:15:17Not bad.
00:15:18Well, since you came all this way, all by uninvited,

00:17:54Ms. Brooke, our client is waiting up to you.
00:17:57Baby, boom!
00:18:19It really is you!
00:18:23It's you, Lauren!
00:18:28Look, Lauren, 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.
00:19:04What happened?
00:19:07Mom, 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, never.
00:19:31Mom, let's go home.
00:19:47Oh, Lauren, I can't go inside.
00:19:50I don't belong here.
00:19:52I should go.
00:19:53Mom, what are you saying?
00:19:55You're family.
00:19:57My home is your home.
00:20:01Lauren, who's this?
00:20:06This is my adoptive mother, the woman who raised me.
00:20:10Mom, this is William.
00:20:13He is my-
00:20:14Another mother.
00:20:16Lauren, this is a lot to drop on somebody.
00:20:18How am I supposed to process this?
00:20:21Lauren, what other secrets are you hiding?
00:20:22What else is there?
00:20:24I'm sorry, Lauren.
00:20:26I should go.
00:20:27I'll only be in the way here.
00:20:30No!
00:20:31No, please, stay.
00:20:33Lauren, I don't want to come between you and your boyfriend.
00:20:37Ma, you are not just an outsider, okay?
00:20:41Forget him.
00:20:42Let's just go inside.
00:20:47Babe, I wish you told me your mother was coming in advance.
00:20:50Could have gotten a nicer gift.
00:20:52Nancy, I'm William.
00:20:53I'm Lauren's fiancé.
00:20:55Please excuse my behaviour from earlier.
00:20:57Sometimes I can get a little bit anxious.
00:20:59But no excuse, okay?
00:21:01Come inside.
00:21:02Take your shoes off.
00:21:03Let's get comfortable.
00:21:04Hopefully you can accept this gift from me as well.
00:21:09Thank you, William.
00:21:12Did you say Lauren's fiancé?
00:21:18Yes, Mom.
00:21:19I'm doing well.
00:21:20You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:21:23Now that's more like it.
00:21:27Come on.
00:21:29Let's go inside.
00:21:30And chill.
00:21:35What a disaster of a wedding you've pulled off.
00:21:39Embarrassing.
00:21:40Chaotic.
00:21:42You're pulling off on your own and you bring in this distant aunt to humiliate me.
00:21:47Mother, I'm sorry.
00:21:49No, sorry doesn't cut it.
00:21:52You barely earn anything and you can't even afford a goddamn housekeeper.
00:21:57I could ask my mother Nancy to help her on the house.
00:22:00She'll do it for real cheap and she'll do whatever you want.
00:22:04Right?
00:22:05But if she doesn't make this place sparkle, she will not get a penny.
00:22:22My shoes are dirty.
00:22:24My socks have holes in them.
00:22:26Well, I should just stay here.
00:22:37Hey, don't worry about it.
00:22:39This floor, it was made for you to walk home.
00:22:46Mom, you've worked your whole life.
00:22:49You gave me everything.
00:22:51You shouldn't have to feel like a stranger in your own daughter's home.
00:22:56Thank you, folks.
00:23:09Mom, you don't need to be nervous.
00:23:11This is your home now.
00:23:14You can retire.
00:23:16Enjoy life.
00:23:17Exactly.
00:23:20I never thought I'd be able to quit working, much less live like this.
00:23:25It's all a little overwhelming, to be honest.
00:23:29By the way, Mom, what brought you to the city?
00:23:31I came for Ashley's wedding.
00:23:33Oh my god, really?
00:23:36Ashley married?
00:23:38That's Mom's biological daughter.
00:23:40We grew up together.
00:23:41I remember you said you had a sister.
00:23:43But you didn't really say much about her.
00:23:46We haven't been in touch in forever.
00:23:47We lost contact after college.
00:23:50Who did she marry?
00:23:52Steven Anderson.
00:23:54Oh, the Andersons.
00:23:56I like them.
00:23:57They have a company with great growing potential.
00:24:00Good for Ashley.
00:24:02Yeah.
00:24:04You seem like a good match.
00:24:15Hello?
00:24:16Hey, Mom, it's me.
00:24:19Ashley, about earlier.
00:24:21Yeah, forget it.
00:24:23Hey, can you come to my house tomorrow?
00:24:25Don't get the wrong idea.
00:24:26We're just really busy with the baby, and we need an extra hand.
00:24:29I assume you're not busy, right?
00:24:31Yes.
00:24:32No, yeah, no problem.
00:24:33I'm glad I can help.
00:24:36I can see my grandchild, right?
00:24:39Willow?
00:24:40Yeah, sure.
00:24:42But just so you know, we can't pay you a lot.
00:24:44My finances are really tied up right now.
00:24:46I don't need money.
00:24:47Seeing you and my grandchild is more than enough.
00:24:52This means the world to me.
00:24:54Cool.
00:24:54I'll text you the address.
00:24:59Okay, Mom, it's done.
00:25:01She has to start with tomorrow.
00:25:04Well, she better do a good job, or she'll answer to me.
00:25:11Lauren, I think I have to leave.
00:25:14Ashley meets me.
00:25:16Oh.
00:25:17Is she okay?
00:25:18Yes.
00:25:19I'm busy, you know.
00:25:21And I'm going to go help out over there.
00:25:26Okay.
00:25:27I understand.
00:25:30Please come back soon.
00:25:34I'll send Ashley a gift.
00:25:36Something to help her with her career.
00:25:38We may not be close anymore, but we're still sisters, and I want you both to have the best
00:25:43life possible.
00:25:44Thank you, Lauren.
00:26:01Ashley Muller's right.
00:26:04This wedding costs a fortune.
00:26:06I called Aunt Nancy.
00:26:08She will cook, clean, whatever.
00:26:11It'll save us a lot of time and energy.
00:26:13A bargain bin relative.
00:26:15Is that the single thing that you can bring to this marriage?
00:26:19Sad.
00:26:22Sorry.
00:26:25Hello?
00:26:27The Brooks Group wants to partner with me?
00:26:31I'd get a $5 million commission?
00:26:34What?
00:26:38Mom?
00:26:39Stephen?
00:26:40The Brooks Group, they want to work with me, and I'd get $5 million.
00:26:44It's a miracle.
00:26:46Well.
00:26:50Well, well, Leslie.
00:26:52I always knew you were a good girl, deep down.
00:26:58The Brooks Group, they are the biggest corporation in the city, and this is going to triple out
00:27:06business value.
00:27:07Ashley, baby, I knew you could be there.
00:27:11Tell me, how in the world did you land a deal with the Brooks Group?
00:27:16Honestly, I don't know.
00:27:18They said there's going to be a banquet next week, and we're going to sign the contract there.
00:27:21Oh, I am so proud of you, darling.
00:27:27Oh, um, Aunt Nancy.
00:27:29I'm coming.
00:27:30She's coming.
00:27:33Uh, hey.
00:27:35So, remember, you're my Aunt Nancy.
00:27:38If you want to stay here, don't forget that.
00:27:39I got it.
00:27:50Stop right there.
00:27:52Look at your shoes.
00:27:55Covered in mud.
00:27:56You dare to walk in like that?
00:28:04Sorry.
00:28:06So sorry.
00:28:07Now, take off your shoes, kneel down, and clean every inch that you step.
00:28:18Then you can enter.
00:28:24Mom's right, Aunt Nancy.
00:28:26Just hurry up and clean the floor.
00:28:50That's much more like it.
00:29:02There's my itty-bitty baby.
00:29:06I'll go prepare the formula.
00:29:09Bye.
00:29:10Bye.
00:29:12Bye.
00:29:29We know.
00:29:31We know.
00:29:31Who is Mama's girl?
00:29:34Oh, yeah.
00:29:36We know.
00:29:38That must be my granddaughter.
00:29:42Oh, sweet child, I'd stay here forever just for her.
00:29:55Don't touch my granddaughter.
00:29:58She's my granddaughter, too.
00:30:04Ashley insists you know how to cook.
00:30:08We'll see about that.
00:30:10You know, we keep a very strict inventory around here.
00:30:14What is that?
00:30:16Supposed to mean you.
00:30:18You think I'd steal something?
00:30:20Of course.
00:30:21It's in your nature.
00:30:23I almost don't blame you, but if anything goes missing, I will blame you.
00:30:35If just one is unaccounted for, you will regret it.
00:30:58Who said you could eat with us?
00:31:03I don't understand.
00:31:05How many times do I need to explain it to you, dollard?
00:31:11Look at you, dressed like a beggar.
00:31:15Don't eat somewhere out of my sight.
00:31:17But what is etiquette to sit here?
00:31:21She is a professional nanny.
00:31:24An entirely other breed.
00:31:26We pay top dollar.
00:31:28To have her take care of her children, do you think you're in the same league?
00:31:32I just...
00:31:33Aunt Nancy, just go eat in the kitchen.
00:31:34I see.
00:32:00Ashley?
00:32:03It's a toilet.
00:32:05Is that a dog bowl?
00:32:06Sorry, yeah, there's another guest room.
00:32:08You'll just have to make do.
00:32:09We used to have a puppy in here, but we got rid of it.
00:32:12Mom hated the smell that it shed too much.
00:32:15Really?
00:32:16It made me sleep in a toilet room crawling next to it.
00:32:22Toilet bowl?
00:32:25There's really no other room, okay?
00:32:27I mean, if you want to clear more space, you can clear the trash.
00:32:31There's some little towels, you can lay those out.
00:32:33There's even water.
00:32:34A dog could survive in here.
00:32:35I don't know what else you need.
00:32:39Ashley?
00:32:40Bring me some grapes.
00:32:41Now!
00:32:42Coming, mother!
00:32:46Oh, and don't forget to close the door.
00:32:48Mom hates the smell.
00:32:53Ashley, what happened to you?
00:32:56How can you do this to me?
00:33:05What are you talking about, Billy?
00:33:09You can't break up with me!
00:33:11Well, I don't consent!
00:33:15Oh!
00:33:16Loser!
00:33:19Shut up!
00:33:24Drug you, you piece of shit!
00:33:27What's happening?
00:33:29I heard Will crying.
00:33:30She sounds scared.
00:33:32It's nothing!
00:33:34What's that?
00:33:37Sleeping pills!
00:33:39Are you drugging Will?
00:33:41Oh, she's...
00:33:41She's just a baby!
00:33:43Give it back!
00:33:44No!
00:33:45Our mom is going any time!
00:33:46You stupid bitch!
00:33:48No!
00:33:56What's going on in here?
00:34:02Ma'am, she was trying to give sleeping pills to Willow!
00:34:05I didn't!
00:34:06I swear!
00:34:07I walked in and...
00:34:10You trying to hurt my grandchild?
00:34:13What's going on in here?
00:34:16Ashley, your aunt has tried to poison Willow!
00:34:20She's giving sleeping pills to a baby!
00:34:23I didn't!
00:34:25I swear, please listen to me!
00:34:30I...
00:34:30I didn't...
00:34:33It was her!
00:34:34I was trying to protect Willow!
00:34:37Mr. and Mrs. Anderson!
00:34:39You know my credentials!
00:34:40Why would I do this?
00:34:43You disgusting creature!
00:34:45I scold you a few times,
00:34:48and you take it out of my grandchild?
00:34:51No!
00:34:52No!
00:34:53No!
00:34:56Mother!
00:34:57Her arm is bruised!
00:34:58My poor Willow!
00:35:00How could somebody do something like this to you?
00:35:03Call the police!
00:35:04Now!
00:35:06This lady must have done it while I was in the kitchen!
00:35:09That's why Willow started crying!
00:35:11I came in here because I heard her crying!
00:35:15You have to believe me, you liar!
00:35:18I'll strip you down myself and find the evidence,
00:35:21and then I'll hand you over to the police personally!
00:35:26I didn't do it!
00:35:28Leave me alone!
00:35:30You just push me!
00:35:32You dare lay a finger on me!
00:35:35Unlike a baby!
00:35:37I can fight back, you filthy cunt!
00:35:43Actually, you know I can never do something like this, Steven!
00:35:48Maybe we should just...
00:35:49Just watch!
00:35:50She's fucking trying to murder our child!
00:35:53Are you seriously sliding with her right now?
00:35:55No!
00:35:55Of course not!
00:35:57Aunt Nancy!
00:35:58Just tell the truth!
00:36:00Was it you?
00:36:03Ashley!
00:36:05You don't believe me either!
00:36:08How could I do something like this?
00:36:10I'm Willow's grave!
00:36:13Shut up!
00:36:14You hurt her!
00:36:16Shut up!
00:36:17Now take all your clothes off!
00:36:25Fine!
00:36:28I'll do it myself!
00:36:54I'm happy now!
00:36:56Can I stop?
00:36:58No!
00:36:59Take all your clothes off!
00:37:00Take everything off!
00:37:01She needs some help!
00:37:02No!
00:37:04No!
00:37:07No!
00:37:08No!
00:37:11I would never hurt a child!
00:37:15Aunt Nancy, if you didn't do it, just prove it already!
00:37:17Just take your clothes off!
00:37:19What?
00:37:21You'd have me strip completely!
00:37:28Your arm!
00:37:31Okay!
00:37:33I'll do it!
00:37:36I'll do it, Ashley!
00:37:49Really?
00:37:50Now!
00:37:51Turn around!
00:37:56Definitely not my dog!
00:37:59Now do you believe me?
00:38:02This proves nothing!
00:38:04Although, it is rather amusing!
00:38:08Now, admit it!
00:38:10Did you abuse Willow?
00:38:12I did not!
00:38:14Mother, maybe she really didn't do anything!
00:38:17Ashley, why do you even defend her?
00:38:18She hurt her child!
00:38:20Exactly!
00:38:21You take the side of a would-be murderer?
00:38:24You can choose!
00:38:25Either her, or this family!
00:38:33Aunt Nancy?
00:38:35Please leave now!
00:38:42Ashley?
00:38:49Get out, you vile vagabond!
00:39:05You think you could steal from us as well?
00:39:08Give that back!
00:39:10Only a few measly bills, only a broke woman like you, would treat this like treasure!
00:39:17Mr. and Mrs. Anderson wouldn't even bother to pick this amount up off the ground!
00:39:22I used such measly bucks to raise two daughters!
00:39:25I was able to give my children a better life out of the country and in the city!
00:39:31I am sure they are glad to be away from you, hillbilly!
00:39:35I earned every cent I made through hard work!
00:39:39You think you're better than me?
00:39:41You think my money is worthless?
00:39:44I made a happy home!
00:39:46Earning this much every month!
00:39:49This is a month's income?
00:39:52The tickle!
00:39:52The tickle!
00:39:53No one here wants your paltry earnings!
00:39:57So get out!
00:39:58You delusional, impoverished...
00:40:02BITCH!
00:40:14Ma?!
00:40:20What is going on here?
00:40:23Who are you people?
00:40:25How dare you treat her like this?
00:40:29Who are you people?
00:40:30How dare you treat her like this?
00:40:34Forget it, Lauren.
00:40:35I just want to leave.
00:40:37Mom, did they hurt you?
00:40:40No, no.
00:40:41They're my employers.
00:40:44That's right.
00:40:45She works for us.
00:40:47Who cares if we gave her a little lesson?
00:40:49And who the hell are you?
00:40:51I'm her daughter.
00:40:52What?
00:40:54Mom only had me.
00:40:56Well, and Lauren.
00:40:58But who knows what happened to that poor foster girl?
00:41:01You liar!
00:41:03She's just a kind woman I met in the city.
00:41:07She's been helping me.
00:41:08I told her she reminded me of my daughter.
00:41:11Oh, you really like clinging to younger women.
00:41:18No children of your own to scam or did you run them off?
00:41:22Do not speak to her that way.
00:41:25Nancy is my family.
00:41:27She's still trash.
00:41:29The two of you deserve each other.
00:41:31A couple of lying beggars.
00:41:33Oh, beggars!
00:41:37Do you know who I am?
00:41:39We don't care who you are.
00:41:40Ever heard of Brooks Group?
00:41:42The Brooks Group?
00:41:44What?
00:41:44Do you clean their toilets or something?
00:41:47You really have no clue, do you?
00:41:52Sweetheart, I don't feel well.
00:41:54Can we just go home?
00:41:56Of course, Mom.
00:41:57I'll take you home.
00:41:57Phew, you pathetic little bums.
00:42:14Mom, I'm here.
00:42:20Are you feeling all right?
00:42:22What did they do to you?
00:42:25Just say the word and I'll make them pay.
00:42:27I'm okay.
00:42:29Mom, you said you were going to Ashley's to help out.
00:42:33What happened?
00:42:35They hired a nanny for Willow, so they didn't need me.
00:42:41And I found another job.
00:42:43But they don't need me either.
00:42:46Why are you putting yourself through this?
00:42:48Why won't you just stay with us?
00:42:50Honey, I've already caused you enough trouble.
00:42:54No, you haven't.
00:42:56We would be honored to have you live with us.
00:43:09I want you to treat yourself.
00:43:12I mean it.
00:43:15Spend as much as you want.
00:43:17There's no limit.
00:43:20Lauren, why are you so good to me?
00:43:25I'm just your adoptive mother.
00:43:28What are you talking about?
00:43:30You're a Brooks now, and you belong with your kind.
00:43:37Listen, if you hadn't taken me in back then, I probably would have starved or frozen to death on the
00:43:43streets.
00:43:45And you gave everything, everything you had to me and Ashley.
00:43:51You have no idea how much I've missed you.
00:43:55I love you, Ma.
00:43:56Always.
00:43:59I love you too, Lauren.
00:44:02Good.
00:44:03I'm glad we agreed.
00:44:06Oh, I meant to tell you.
00:44:09Next week, I'm taking you to a banquet.
00:44:12A banquet?
00:44:14No, I don't know about that kind of thing, and I'd only embarrass you.
00:44:22That's impossible.
00:44:24Because the banquet is for you.
00:44:26And if you don't want to stay here, I won't force you.
00:44:30I'm buying you a new house anyway.
00:44:41Lauren, I don't know about this whole house idea.
00:44:45I could just go back to where I'm staying.
00:44:47Ma, it's a gift I'm happy to give.
00:44:50If the roles were reversed, you would do the same.
00:44:54Please accept it.
00:45:01I'm sorry, Ma.
00:45:02I've got to take this call.
00:45:03Don't worry.
00:45:04I have someone waiting to assist you.
00:45:14My manager said Miss Brooke's mother would be coming today.
00:45:17Could this be her?
00:45:18If it is, I have to make a good impression.
00:45:26Good day, Miss.
00:45:27May I help you?
00:45:30I don't really know how to do this.
00:45:32I'd be happy to show you everything on offer.
00:45:34Care to sit?
00:45:35Please, this way.
00:45:37Yeah, please.
00:45:38Have a sit.
00:45:39Yes, yes.
00:45:40Here's some water.
00:45:44Oh, here's our brochure.
00:45:47All our properties are developed by Brooke's Group.
00:45:50So, platinum tier quality.
00:46:01Ashley, I am so proud of you.
00:46:06This is the finest collection in the city.
00:46:10After the Brooke's Group deal closes, I'll be able to afford the best of the best.
00:46:18Ashley, is that your Aunt Nancy?
00:46:22What is she doing here?
00:46:25I think it's about time I stopped being so nice to her.
00:46:30How much is that one?
00:46:32It's only for $1.5 million.
00:46:35Okay.
00:46:36$1.5 million?
00:46:38Yes.
00:46:39And a great value at that.
00:46:42Oh, if you're planning to live with your family, I'd recommend...
00:46:46Augustine model, 7,500 square feet, six baths, six bedrooms at $18 million.
00:46:53Oh, that's far more than I need.
00:46:56$18 million?
00:46:57That old hag couldn't afford that much in 18 lifetimes.
00:47:03Uh, excuse me, who are you?
00:47:06Lucy Anderson, one of your top clientele.
00:47:10And that woman.
00:47:12Regrettably, she was our maid, and we had to fire her for misconduct.
00:47:17She's a liar.
00:47:18Don't waste any more time on her.
00:47:20That's right.
00:47:21She's a Brooke nobody.
00:47:22A grifter, cosplaying affluence.
00:47:25Wait, this isn't Miss Brooke's mother?
00:47:27Shit.
00:47:28I've been wasting my time with her.
00:47:30Nancy, what are you doing?
00:47:32Just leave town and go home already.
00:47:35Ashley, do you really hate me so much?
00:47:38Am I such a disgrace to you?
00:47:42What happened to that sweet little girl I used to know?
00:47:49So what?
00:47:50I'm not good enough to even exist in this city?
00:47:53Ashley, why does she care so much about what you think?
00:47:56It's not like she's your mom or something.
00:48:01I don't know what you want from me.
00:48:03I was just being nice to you because you came all the way from the countryside.
00:48:07That's all.
00:48:08Some people, they just walk into the city and they think they belong in the city.
00:48:14The truth is, you're just a country bumkin and you'll never be like us.
00:48:23You know what?
00:48:24That's right.
00:48:26I'll never be like you.
00:48:28I scrimped and saved my whole life so my family could have something better.
00:48:35You all think I'm poor, but I'm rich in good memories of my, of Ashley, even if she's forgotten.
00:48:50You think I can't afford a home?
00:48:58That three-bedroom, two-bath model?
00:49:01Uh, Rivera model, yes.
00:49:04I'll take it.
00:49:05Full payment.
00:49:06Now.
00:49:07Of course.
00:49:08I'll grab the weed card and the contract will be right away, okay?
00:49:14Now, I'm wondering where you found this obviously fake card.
00:49:18Or maybe you stole it.
00:49:19Give it back!
00:49:20No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:49:21You want it now?
00:49:23You beg me.
00:49:23No, I haven't.
00:49:25Whatever you're doing, stop it.
00:49:26Okay?
00:49:27But just embarrass yourself further.
00:49:28I know you don't have that kind of money.
00:49:30You do realize that these properties were developed by the Brooks Group.
00:49:35Elite only begins to describe their clientele.
00:49:39And this fake card isn't going to work.
00:49:42Shall we now add fraud to your list of crimes?
00:49:46Sorry, Lauren.
00:49:48Just this once, I want to be selfish to prove myself.
00:49:55Sir.
00:49:57Please run the card.
00:50:00Of course, miss.
00:50:01Right away.
00:50:02Ashley, there's no way she has that kind of money, right?
00:50:05All set.
00:50:06Please swipe a card.
00:50:08That would be $1.5 million.
00:50:11Go ahead, darling.
00:50:13Swipe it.
00:50:15Mom probably doesn't even have $10,000, let alone a mil five.
00:50:21What am I doing?
00:50:22This is crazy.
00:50:23No matter what these people say, I can't spend Lauren's money like this.
00:50:29$1.5 million?
00:50:31I must be out of my mind.
00:50:35Actually, I'm sorry.
00:50:37I can't buy this yet.
00:50:39Seriously?
00:50:40Sorry, my friend, but what the fuck, lady?
00:50:43I knew she was bluffing.
00:50:44It's probably the cheapest listing and she can't even afford it.
00:50:48Enough.
00:50:49Get out of the way.
00:50:50We're here to buy.
00:50:51Show me your most expensive property.
00:50:54Absolutely.
00:51:00Ashley's about to get a huge payout, aren't you?
00:51:04And we can always leverage some funds.
00:51:07Show me the most expensive listing.
00:51:10But that's $18 million.
00:51:12Your point?
00:51:13If you're not willing to contribute to this family, then why did you even marry my son?
00:51:18Ashley, you know Mother's right, as always.
00:51:21Of course, I'm sorry.
00:51:24I'm sorry, Lauren.
00:51:26I can't give up on Ashley.
00:51:29Please forgive me.
00:51:31Pardon me, sir.
00:51:32I was here first.
00:51:34The Augustine model, I believe you called it.
00:51:38I'll take it.
00:51:40Charge the card.
00:51:55Come on.
00:51:57Are you kidding me?
00:51:58The card even doesn't work.
00:52:00No, no.
00:52:01That's impossible.
00:52:02There must be money on it.
00:52:03I told you, she has no money.
00:52:06Lady, why don't you just hitchhike your way back to your little farm?
00:52:10You're getting in the way of your bettors.
00:52:13She's not buying the house.
00:52:15We are.
00:52:16But I have one condition.
00:52:18Of course, whatever you need.
00:52:21She's polluting the air.
00:52:23And if you want our business, slap her twice.
00:52:29But Mother, isn't that...
00:52:30You dare defend her again?
00:52:33No, of course not.
00:52:36Just a moment.
00:52:38Security!
00:52:41Slap this woman hard.
00:52:44Yes, sir.
00:52:46I meant for you to slap her, but watching these two men do it is quite delightful.
00:52:53I'll allow it.
00:52:54Get your hands off me!
00:53:00Stop!
00:53:03What is the meaning of this?
00:53:07Sorry.
00:53:08Sorry.
00:53:10Look, it's the little tramp accomplice.
00:53:14Excuse me.
00:53:15We're in the middle of the situation here.
00:53:17You can make an appointment if you want to.
00:53:19Don't bother with her.
00:53:21She's a con artist, like the old woman.
00:53:23Yeah.
00:53:24They're both loser nobodies.
00:53:28Exactly.
00:53:29Or are you about to claim your son long-lost heir of the Rockefellers?
00:53:32Or perhaps a Brooks family second cousin twice for a minute?
00:53:37Get rid of them now.
00:53:40Just a moment.
00:53:44Hello?
00:53:45There are three individuals causing a scene at the Riverfront sales office.
00:53:50Check the security footage to identify them.
00:53:52It's an elderly woman and a couple.
00:53:54They are blacklisted.
00:53:56Do not sell them any property at any price.
00:53:58They're permanently banned.
00:54:01Lady, you're embarrassing yourself.
00:54:03This is my curve.
00:54:05And what I say goes.
00:54:08Escort them out now.
00:54:10Don't do that.
00:54:11Ouch!
00:54:12My arm!
00:54:13Hey, Stormtrooper!
00:54:14Let her go!
00:54:15If you harm her, there'll be hell to pay.
00:54:20What on earth is going on in here?
00:54:23Who, who, who's creating such a ruckus?
00:54:28Oh, black card.
00:54:32I can't believe that I almost didn't recognize our most VIP clientele.
00:54:38VIP or not, no one should be treated this way.
00:54:54You idiot!
00:54:56How did you not see the black card?
00:54:59Sir, please don't be fooled.
00:55:01The card was fake.
00:55:03The card had to respond.
00:55:05It's a fake.
00:55:05You're a fool!
00:55:06That is a black prestige card.
00:55:09There's no pen.
00:55:10There's no limit.
00:55:11Regular machines can't even read it.
00:55:13You.
00:55:14You have managed to insult our most VIP clientele.
00:55:19You are fired!
00:55:23Oh, please.
00:55:24Just, just, just...
00:55:29Um...
00:55:30Yes.
00:55:33Huh?
00:55:35Uh, madam.
00:55:38Everything has gone through perfectly.
00:55:41The property now officially belongs to you,
00:55:43and we can begin processing your paperwork.
00:55:46Congratulations.
00:55:51I don't know what to say.
00:55:54Well, I don't have to say anything.
00:56:02What just happened?
00:56:04Oh, my God.
00:56:06Are they part of the Brooks group?
00:56:13This can't be real.
00:56:15No way Mom knows anyone in the Brooks family.
00:56:18But that woman she met,
00:56:20she's clearly loaded.
00:56:21Who is she?
00:56:24Listen, everybody.
00:56:26My Aunt Nancy has never left the countryside before.
00:56:29There is no way she has any connection to the Brooks group.
00:56:32This woman was sleeping on our floor,
00:56:35begging to be our maid, and...
00:56:38Yeah, she'll lie about anything.
00:56:40Truly, utterly pathetic.
00:56:42You absolutely have zero clue.
00:56:46I try to be patient, but...
00:56:50Shut your bitch mouth.
00:56:53I just know who you are.
00:56:56A low-class whore,
00:56:58pretending to be part of this Brooks circle.
00:57:01We're the ones that have signed with the Brooks group.
00:57:04You don't say...
00:57:06Mm-hmm.
00:57:07You're really working with the Brooks group.
00:57:10Of course.
00:57:11I know you wouldn't know what it means to partner with them,
00:57:16but we're going to be the richest people in the city.
00:57:21Yeah.
00:57:21Even if you somehow could afford this place,
00:57:25you're still much lower than we are.
00:57:28Stephen, show them.
00:57:29We're going to buy the second most expensive property on your list.
00:57:34Mother, let's not be hasty.
00:57:36Until I sign, can we really afford to...
00:57:39Silence, child.
00:57:41This old bitch has bought the most expensive property on the list,
00:57:44and now you're telling us that we can't buy the second.
00:57:48Sorry.
00:57:50Let's just...
00:57:51Swipe the card.
00:58:00Yes, sir.
00:58:01Yes, sir.
00:58:02Understood, sir.
00:58:04I'm afraid I'm unable to sell you this property,
00:58:06or any other property for that matter.
00:58:13Wait, what?
00:58:15Why?
00:58:16You know, we're refusing to sell to us.
00:58:19You can't do that.
00:58:20Well, sue.
00:58:21Well, we are a private business,
00:58:23and therefore we have the power to choose our own clients.
00:58:26Perhaps you should be asking yourself,
00:58:28who was it that I pissed off?
00:58:31That doesn't make any sense.
00:58:33We didn't do anything wrong.
00:58:34My mom is a nobody.
00:58:37Pissing her off doesn't count.
00:58:39Well, that's something that you can contemplate on your own time,
00:58:42and somewhere else.
00:58:44Now, get the hell out of here,
00:58:46before I have security throw you out.
00:58:49Sell or don't sell,
00:58:51we don't care.
00:58:52But you'll regret it.
00:58:54Once this Brooks Group deal has gone through,
00:58:57you're gonna come begging back to us.
00:59:00Yeah, you all just wait.
00:59:01Come on.
00:59:02Let's go.
00:59:03I'm looking forward to seeing how things go with the Brooks Group.
00:59:07And I look forward to shoving the deal down your fucking throat.
00:59:12Wherever you are,
00:59:13I'll find you.
00:59:16I'm seeing you.
00:59:29Hey.
00:59:30What's wrong?
00:59:32I don't know.
00:59:35I feel like mom's hiding something from me.
00:59:38She's probably just overwhelmed.
00:59:41This is all new to her.
00:59:43And she has been through a lot.
00:59:46You know, maybe when she gets to the banquet,
00:59:48and she sees Ashley,
00:59:49and sees the surprise that you planned for her,
00:59:52she'll realize that everything's gonna be okay.
00:59:54Yeah.
00:59:55Maybe you're right.
01:00:22Maybe you're right.
01:00:26No, no, not at all.
01:00:28I am just so grateful to have the opportunity
01:00:30to show the world who the Anderson family is
01:00:32and what we're capable of.
01:00:34Miss Anderson,
01:00:35we hope you'll remember us,
01:00:36and we won't forget you.
01:00:38Oh, thank you.
01:00:39Of course.
01:00:55Oh, Lauren, I really shouldn't be here.
01:00:59I'm not dressed right.
01:01:01I don't belong in a place like this.
01:01:04Mom,
01:01:05you belong here more than anyone else.
01:01:08This banquet is for you.
01:01:14Damn it.
01:01:15It's the office.
01:01:16I have to take this.
01:01:19Mom,
01:01:20go on inside without me, okay?
01:01:22William will be right here.
01:01:24No, no, no, no.

01:01:27You'll be fine.
01:01:28You deserve this.
01:01:30You deserve to be seen.

01:11:54You see, I told you.
01:11:56These three, they're in it together.
01:11:59The washed-up old hag, the wild little slut, and that disgusting gimp.
01:12:04All here to stir up trouble.
01:12:07Uh-oh. That's Lauren Brooks.
01:12:09My God. And you heard what that woman just called her?
01:12:13I don't think they're actually enormous bros.
01:12:18What is wrong with you people?
01:12:21They're all fake.
01:12:23Call the police, Stephen.
01:12:34How dare you publicly humiliate Ms. Brooks.
01:12:38Ms. Brooks?
01:12:42Ashley Morgan?
01:12:44Yeah, that's me.
01:12:46I can't believe it.
01:12:48You really don't recognize me?
01:12:53I don't know.
01:12:54Look at me.
01:12:55You stand here mocking her, humiliating her, shoving her around in public, and yet you feel nothing.
01:13:06I know you really want this contract, Ashley, but I don't want to give it to you anymore.
01:13:12No, you can't do that, Ms. Brooks.
01:13:17I am so stupid.
01:13:20I mean, Ms. Brooks, of course they recognize you.
01:13:22I mean, everyone knows your family.
01:13:25Enough!
01:13:26Ms. Brooks, we were wrong.
01:13:29We see that now.
01:13:30Please have some mercy.
01:13:31We didn't mean any harm.
01:13:33Let us make it up to you, all right?
01:13:38Don't play innocent with me.
01:13:41I heard every word you said to Nancy.
01:13:44And I'm sure you all said and did worse when you were alone with her.
01:13:48Ms. Brooks, I'm sorry.
01:13:49I can see we got off on the wrong foot.
01:13:51Look, we know we messed up, but the project, that's business, right?
01:13:56Forget the contract.
01:13:58Forget business.
01:14:00What about family?
01:14:02Why are you saying this to me?
01:14:04I'll tell you.
01:14:06But first, answer me this.
01:14:11Who is she?
01:14:17Who is that woman?
01:14:21Say it, Ashley Morgan.
01:14:24Right here, in front of everyone.
01:14:28Tell everyone who this woman really is.
01:14:34Say it, Ashley.
01:14:36Who is she?
01:14:40Ms. Brooks.
01:14:44I don't know what you're talking about.
01:14:47But it should have nothing to do with our contract.
01:14:51We're professionals.
01:14:57I can't handle this anymore.
01:15:00I shouldn't be here.
01:15:01I wasn't made for this big city life.
01:15:06I've never been anything but worthless.
01:15:09You can't let them treat you like this.
01:15:12You're not what they say.
01:15:15You're the most precious person I've ever known.
01:15:19Ms. Brooks, please just let her leave.
01:15:21Don't allow her to ruin the evening.
01:15:25Our evening?
01:15:27Is that all you care about?
01:15:29The contract?
01:15:30Money?
01:15:31Ms. Brooks, I'm sorry, but I...
01:15:33Ashley, you kicked Nancy out of your wedding.
01:15:38You humiliated her while buying a house.
01:15:42And now you just stand here watching as your mother-in-law bullies and abuses her.
01:15:49Not even a stranger deserves to be treated like this.
01:15:52But she's not a stranger, is she?
01:15:56Tell me, who took care of you when you were sick?
01:16:01Who stayed up with you when you had a nightmare?
01:16:06Who gave up everything?
01:16:09Everything to give you a better life?
01:16:14She's not some random woman.
01:16:16She's not even your aunt.
01:16:19She's the reason you exist.
01:16:21So why is it so hard to admit that she is your mother?
01:16:29She's Mrs. Anderson's mother?
01:16:32Her mother was right there and she refused to acknowledge her.
01:16:37And she even humiliated her in public.
01:16:40How terrible.
01:16:41How do you know that?
01:16:46Wait.
01:16:53Oh my God.
01:16:56You're a lawyer.
01:16:59She's your mother, Ashley?
01:17:01You told me that she was traveling the world.
01:17:04That she wasn't even in the country.
01:17:07You told me that she was just a distant aunt.
01:17:11Ashley, you lied to us.
01:17:13Your mother is just a dirty old woman.
01:17:16Ashley.
01:17:16Ashley, this woman raised you.
01:17:20Gave her all for you.
01:17:23Provided a home full of love.
01:17:26And you denied her.
01:17:30Like she was nothing.
01:17:32Ungrateful brat.
01:17:33But if she would betray her mother like that, how could anyone ever trust her?
01:17:39Honestly, I feel bad for that poor woman.
01:17:42All right.
01:17:43You all asked for this.
01:17:56I feel bad for that poor woman.
01:18:04I feel bad for that poor woman.
01:18:06I feel bad for that poor woman.
01:18:15We're decent people.
01:18:17Really?
01:18:18I promise.
01:18:19From now on, I'm going to treat Nancy with the most utter respect.
01:18:25I'm not the one you should be kneeling to.
01:18:31Oh.
01:18:41Oops.
01:18:42Accidents.
01:18:44Steve!
01:18:48Steve!
01:18:49Help me!
01:18:51Leave me out of this.
01:18:53Steve!
01:18:55I didn't ask for this.
01:18:57It didn't do anything.
01:18:58Steve!
01:19:00But you did.
01:19:01Ask for this.
01:19:03You son of a bitch.
01:19:04Fuck!
01:19:17Oh.
01:19:19Mommy.
01:19:23I know I fucked up.
01:19:27I just got caught up in all of this.
01:19:30And it's been so hard.
01:19:34I was blind.
01:19:36I see that now.
01:19:38I was just awful.
01:19:41I could change for you.
01:19:43And for Willow.
01:19:44Don't forget your granddaughter.
01:19:48Mother.
01:19:50I didn't know it was yours.
01:19:53I promise from now on, I'll treat you like my own mother.
01:19:58I see.
01:20:02What a wild ride.
01:20:06You know what it's like for women of our age.
01:20:09We have to keep our appearances.
01:20:12Come on.
01:20:13Come on.
01:20:13Let's not dwell in the past.
01:20:15Let's be friends, dear.
01:20:19Whatever you just say, Mom.
01:20:22I'm with you.
01:20:23Let's not dwell in the past.
01:20:24I'm with you.
01:20:39Let's not dwell in the past.
01:20:41Let's not dwell in the past.
01:20:50Ashley, I can see I've been a source of shame for you, and that's a hard thing for a mother
01:21:00to accept.
01:21:08Yes, I come from the countryside.
01:21:13And yes, I've led a humble life, which some might consider poor.
01:21:23Since I've come to town, I've been harassed, mistreated, lied to, and lied about.
01:21:40Ashley, I can see how I've embarrassed you.
01:21:43I'm not the kind of mother you want.
01:21:45She is.
01:21:47I've made peace with that, and I'll be okay, really.
01:21:52But from now on, you are not my daughter.
01:22:07No.
01:22:09Mom, please don't do that.
01:22:13No.
01:22:14Mom, please don't do that.
01:22:16Please, please wait.
01:22:23Ashley Anderson and the entire Anderson family are blacklisted from Brooks Group's projects.
01:22:30I'll personally ensure every one of our partners know no one works with you ever again.
01:22:37Furthermore, I will have my lawyer investigate all that you did to my mother, and you will
01:22:44be held accountable to the full extent of the law.
01:22:51I will kill you.
01:23:02This can't be real.
01:23:04We're finished.
01:23:06We're all in.
01:23:08Stupid girl.
01:23:10This is all your fault.
01:23:12Destroy the family.
01:23:13I will kill you.
01:23:15Oh, no.
01:23:16I will kill you.
01:23:18No!
01:23:24Mom.
01:23:26It's gone.
01:23:32No!
