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

00:26:39Steven!
00:26:40The Brooks Group, they want to work with me and I 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!
00:27:02And this is going to triple out business value!
00:27:07Ashley, baby, I knew you could be there!
00:27:11Tell me, how in the world did you land a deal with the Brooks Group?
00:27:16Honestly, 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!
00:27:23I am so proud of you, darling!
00:27:27Oh, um, Aunt Nancy.

00:27:55Covered in mud!
00:27:56You dare to walk in like that?
00:28:04Sorry.
00:28:06Sorry.
00:28:08Now, take off your shoes, kneel down, and clean every inch that you stay.
00:28:18Then you can enter.
00:28:23No.
00:28:25Mom's right, Aunt Nancy.
00:28:26Just hurry up and clean the floor.
00:28:50That's much more like it.

00:50:18let alone a mil five.

00:50:23This is crazy.
00:50:24No matter what these people say,
00:50:26I can't spend Lauren's money like this.
00:50:291.5 million dollars?
00:50:32I 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
00:50:46and she can't even afford it.
00:50:48Enough. Get out of the way.
00:50:50We're here to buy.
00:50:51Show me Yorick's most expensive property.
00:50:54Absolutely.
00:50:57Don't tell you the kind of money.
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,
00:51:16then why did you even marry my son?
00:51:18Ashley, you know Mother's right, as always.
00:51:20Of 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 cart.
00:51:56Come on.
00:51:57Are you kidding me?
00:51:58The cart 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
00:52:09back to your little farm?
00:52:10You're getting in the way of your betters.
00:52:13She's not buying the house.
00:52:15We are.
00:52:16But I have one condition.
00:52:19Of course.
00:52:20Whatever you need.
00:52:21She's polluting the air.
00:52:23And if you want our business,
00:52:26slap her.
00:52:27Twice.
00:52:28But Mother, isn't that...
00:52:30You dare defend her again?
00:52:33No.
00:52:34Of course not.
00:52:37Just a moment.
00:52:38Security!
00:52:41Slap this woman hard.
00:52:44Yes, sir.
00:52:45Oh, no, no, no, no.
00:52:46I meant for you to slap her,
00:52:48but watching these two men do it
00:52:50is quite delightful.
00:52:53I'll allow it.
00:52:54Get your hands off me!
00:53:01Stop!
00:53:04What is the meaning of this?
00:53:07Sorry.
00:53:08Sorry.
00:53:09Sorry.
00:53:10Look, it's the little tramp accomplice.
00:53:14It's the little trampolines.

00:53:21She's a con artist, like the old woman.
00:53:24Yeah.

00:53:28Exactly.

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