00:07Congratulations, Dr. Ivy Wright, a generational talent.
00:11At 18 years old, she earned her PhD in mathematics from Harvard.
00:17Five years ago, I went by my birth name, Ivy Wright, a celebrated mathematician.
00:30Ivy, this is for you. So what's next in life of a genius mathematician?
00:37Thanks, Lucas.
00:39Well, I met someone this past summer. It was so freeing, so different.
00:46He saw me as a normal woman. I didn't have to speak about my brains or the family I come
00:50from.
00:51Are you sure? You just got your PhD in mathematics from Harvard.
00:56You know, math has always been easy for me, but the life I've been living, it's quite empty.
01:01All this recognition feels like a burden.
01:05I want a family, Lucas. I am not sure I can ever have that if I am always living in
01:10the shadow of Ivy Wright.
01:12You're not in the shadow of Ivy Wright.
01:17You are Ivy Wright.
01:19I know. But I want to fall in love, get married, and live a simple happy day.
01:29Ironically, the life of academia I tried to leave behind has found me once more through my son.
01:34Ryder, at the age five, is ranked highest in International Math Olympiad.
01:41What's it like living with a generational genius?
01:44In everyone's eyes, I am just simple housewife.
01:47I just hope this pressure is easier on my son than it was on me.
01:50Ryder, who do you credit most for your incredible intellect?
01:58OUCH!
01:59Hey!
02:00The kid? He bit his mom? Did you see that?
02:06I want to thank my dad and my mentor, Miss Prynne.
02:10I have inherited my dad's incredible genes, and I am grateful for the guidance I got from Miss Scarlet Prynne.
02:21Everyone hungry?
02:28Ms. Prynne, you can join us too.
02:38Come on, Sophia. Let's not be selfish. This is Ryder's day. Let him sit with his father and tutor to
02:44enjoy the moment.
02:46You two can eat the leftovers after we are done.
02:52Why is everyone being mean?
02:56This is a special day for Ryder. They are just caught up in the excitement.
03:02More!
03:04You've worked up quite an appetite.
03:06Let his sister do it. Her brother is a genius and will change all of our fortunes.
03:12And it would be better for Mia to learn all this at a young age.
03:15Yes, Grandma.
03:19Ryder!
03:21Why are you yelling at Ryder?
03:23Mia is the kludds who dropped the bowl.
03:26This mess isn't going to clean itself.
03:29Ryder, I'm your mother.
03:31Who taught you to behave like this?
03:33It's a joke.
03:34Lighten up.
03:36Why are you always such a buzzkill?
03:38Why are you always such a buzzkill?
03:43Why are you always such a buzzkill?
03:54Why are you talking with her?
04:04It's an enthusiasm with your heart.
04:10You're as a pleasure.
04:12Why are you always such a buzzkill?
04:15You're such a good person.
04:17I don't know if you're such a good person.
04:19You're such a good person.
04:21I had no idea you spoke French.
04:24They prove the respect, Finn.
04:27Ryder, I am your mother.
04:30Do you really think it's okay to talk?
04:32Why does this thing talk so much?
04:34Can't it shut up?
04:36Come on. Ryder achieved something incredible today.
04:39Let him have his fun. Don't be so fragile.
04:42She's so annoying.
04:44If you are so determined to spoil Ryder's day,
04:46then perhaps you should leave.
04:50Fine. We are leaving.
04:54Tristan, your wife is leaving you.
04:57Aren't you gonna stop her?
04:59No need. They have nowhere to go.
05:02They'll be back.
05:06I gave up everything for a family,
05:08and this is what they gave me in return.
05:10How could they do this to me?
05:12How could they do this to Mia?
05:15Tristan, how did things change so quickly?
05:18You are not the same man I married.
05:20Mom, it's my fault.
05:22I ruined Ryder's special day.
05:27No, sweetheart. You aren't to blame for any of this.
05:30You were right. Your brother was being mean,
05:33and I should have done something about it.
05:47She's lost a lot of blood. She needs surgery immediately.
05:51Her blood type is AB negative, and without a donor, I fear the surgery will be too risky.
05:56Mommy?
05:58Mommy? Am I going to die?
06:00No, sweetheart. Mommy's here. Nothing will happen to you.
06:10Ryder, you're here. Your sister needs you. You have the same AB negative blood.
06:15I am busy. Leave me alone.
06:19Ryder.
06:21Enough. These are more than games. These are to keep his mind sharp.
06:26Tristan, this is his sister's life.
06:29You overreact for everything. She got hurt because you were careless.
06:33Why not offer your own blood?
06:35My blood isn't a match.
06:37Why is everything always about you?
06:41She doesn't have a lot of time. She might not make it.
06:49What did you say?
06:50She's lost a lot of blood, and she's fallen into a coma.
06:53We need to find a donor within an hour. It's our only hope.
06:56Tristan, Ryder listens to you. Please, you have to help.
07:01Alright, that's enough.
07:04After all, I am her father. Stop always trying to make me the bad guy.
07:09Your sister can't wait any longer. Go.
07:12Wait. Mia's in a coma because she's lost too much blood.
07:16Now you want me to lose mine too?
07:18What? That's not...
07:22I'm your mom.
07:28Hold on.
07:29My grandson is a genius.
07:32I won't allow any Tom, Dick, Harry to get his blood.
07:35It has his DNA in it.
07:36This isn't for anyone. This is for his sister.
07:39His blood has nothing to do with his intellect.
07:42So you're a doctor now?
07:43You know this for a fact.
07:45You coddle that poor girl and are always trying to have her piggyback off Ryder's accomplishments.
07:51But this? I can't forgive this.
07:54Please. She'll die without his blood.
07:56I can't forgive his blood.
07:57I can't forgive her.
08:13I can't forgive her.
08:13I can't forgive you.
08:16I do that!
08:16Ms. Prynne?
08:17Thank you for coming over. Ryder really likes you.
08:20I'd do anything for him.
08:22You're so nice.
08:24I wish you were my mom sometimes.
08:26I know.
08:40lucas do you want a break i can sit with mia no no the doctors told me you're responsible
08:47for tracking down a blood donor for mia turns out ab negative is super rare but it's something
08:54mia and i have in common how can i ever repay you don't be like that i am always happy
09:01to help
09:02i heard what happened with tristan and rider how could they leave like that without even caring
09:06about mia you deserve more does he even care maybe he still cares deep down after all lucas
09:20i need to take mia home after this of course i'll drive you home
09:40what are you doing
09:46what were you doing aren't you ashamed do you want to sleep with him enough
09:59tristan why did you call me home if you were only going to insult me with this i called you
10:05because
10:05the dishes aren't going to clean by themselves and tomorrow we are throwing rider a party
10:10and we invited some prestigious guests including dr wright who has apparently come out of her
10:18reclusive shell for this event it's important that we all play nice for rider's benefit and future
10:24if things go well who knows perhaps dr wright may even consider taking our son on as her student
10:31since you are so busy planning rider's party by sleeping with her you might not have found the
10:36time to ask about your daughter mia we were able to find a donor she is waiting downstairs in the
10:44car
10:44to see her father i knew she'd be all right you're always overreacting what makes you think dr wright
10:52would work with rider you don't even know dr wright trust me i know dr wright you do
11:00well i know her type believe me she'll want to work with rider but i am not sure how'd she
11:05feel
11:05about you on that we may agree i am not sure dr wright would even know who i am at
11:11all you were so
11:11different when we met as soon as we had kids you ignored me and they become your focus and once
11:18i
11:18focused more on the kids you became jealous and so bitchy kid kid you only focused on rider that too
11:28after i proved he had the intellect to become a genius you always acted like mia was never born
11:34did you ever really love us
11:40fine
11:43if that's how it is then i want a divorce
11:46a divorce how will you live everything you have everything you are is because of me
11:51there would be no sophia miller if it weren't for me
11:55you're right you are the reason sophie miller exists so let's relieve you and the world from this burden
12:02take back the things you gave to give her life
12:08this cheap cardigan i know it's a knockoff and these pearls
12:15you bought your mother gold and gave your own wife plastic
12:21are you finished no but we are
12:34i'm leaving you we're done my feelings for you made me blind to who you really are

14:02sophia's threats of divorce are going to completely steal focus from rider's party tomorrow
14:07perhaps there is another way to frame this
14:09the tragic devoted single father raising his genius child on his own
14:14maybe you'll become a bigger part of rider's story

16:55and rider has always had strong maternal guidance from his mentor
16:59and our dear friend scarlet prinin
17:04dear friend

17:24within three weeks

22:09your early work offered me the essential tools i needed for my article
22:13i continue to use your theories on implementing esperanto as a universal language for our space program

25:14leave this to me
25:17he is the director of mit dr. andrew roley
25:20do you know how big of a deal it is for us to have him here
25:24he must have come to scout rider for the national youth academic program
25:26if rider is selected for that program
25:29then he is set for life
25:31i'll make sure he is impressed by rider
25:35hello
25:36you are dr. andrew roley
25:39yes
25:39with your busy schedule
25:41we weren't sure if you could make it here

25:50look everyone here is happier
25:52and everything shines brighter with your presence
25:54thank you for coming director
26:03you must be thirsty after your journey here
26:05there's champagne over there
26:07may i pour you a glass
26:09get out of my way please go bother someone else
26:13dr. wright it is so great to see you
26:15thanks to you the national youth academics program at mit has produced many bona fide geniuses
26:20i'm i'm sorry do you two know each other
26:23they must have met at a parent meeting
26:25please dr. roley
26:27it is kind of you to assume the child's mother had something to do with the incredible accomplishments rider has
26:33achieved at such an early age but i assure you
26:36why are you still here
26:40i mean no disrespect
26:42director roley
26:45but you are only here because we invited you
26:47how dare you
26:48i am only here because of dr. wright
26:52without her there wouldn't even be a national youth academics program at mit
26:56this was created
26:59for her
27:01for her
27:04by her
27:06somebody please assure me this woman
27:08is not connected to this young man's development
27:13director roley
27:14writer was nurtured at every step
27:16by me
27:17we are all here today because of the work he and i did together
27:19you think you offered more to this day than the boy's own mother
27:24a woman with an academic reputation that has the sharpest minds in the country gathered to meet her child
27:30you have it all wrong
27:33she has spent all of her time trying to coddle and soft the boy
27:37i am the one who has honed in on his intellectual side
27:41that woman may be the world's greatest con artist but i can assure you she isn't an intellectual she's a
27:45moron
27:47why do sounds keep exploding from your mouth when you never offer anything valuable to a conversation
27:54and like that scarlet is speechless
27:58i didn't think it was possible
28:00you have already proven yourself to be a master of deception
28:04is this how you found favor with the director
28:08did you worm your way into his bed
28:12is that
28:13the only play in your playbook
28:18apologize
28:20now
28:20she looks like she's in good hands
28:24weird to see a man hold his child teacher
28:26closer and with more affection
28:28than he's ever held his own wife
28:30i must say that closeness feels a scooch more intimate than parent teacher
28:35are they having an affair
28:37nonsense
28:39i'm ryder's teacher
28:40true
28:41i care for the miller family like they are my own
28:44but these accusations are just rumors
28:46sure
28:47we'll all believe you more than what we just saw with our own eyes
28:51didn't you like messing around with him
28:53well
28:54he's all yours now
28:57here
29:01you want to embarrass me in front of everyone
29:03you embarrass yourself
29:05you say i've been living a lie
29:07look in the mirror you hypocrite
29:09stop pretending she's your girl
29:11and just go public with your relationship
29:14sure
29:15it's less scandalous
29:17but she's probably still fun all the same
29:18no
29:19i am ryder's teacher
29:20he is my focus
29:21your problems with keeping your husband happy
29:24are your problems alone
29:26why don't you let me focus on ryder
29:29and you can try focusing on your husband
29:31for five minutes in this life
29:33ryder is my son
29:36you don't need to worry about him
29:38do you think he'd come to you or me
29:40if we both held out our hand right now
29:42it's normal for a boy to want to impress his father
29:46tristan has taken advantage of that for his own selfish needs
29:50but i can help ryder
29:52get back on the right path
29:54ryder
29:55would you like to live with me
29:58with mia
29:59i only want the best for you
30:00you are my son
30:04i hate being your son
30:06i don't want to live with you
30:09i want miss prin to be my mother
30:10not you
30:12you are a liar
30:13and poor
30:14and
30:15ryder i'm not poor
30:16i come from a very wealthy family
30:18i just didn't want you to have to face the pressures i faced with that name
30:21if you are rich
30:22then i hate you for keeping this from me and living a lie
30:25if you are poor
30:25you are lying to me now
30:28either way your wish i came from anyone else but you
30:30if you did love me
30:32you'd die and disappear
30:33so i could move on to a better life
30:35did you hear that
30:38ivy
30:38if you truly love ryder
30:40then leave him the hell alone
30:41i hate you
30:43i hate you
30:45my own son
30:48sees me as his enemy
30:54fine then
30:56ryder as per your wishes
30:58i will no longer consider you my son
31:00oh no
31:01how will ryder ever survive without you
31:05once upon a time
31:06these people may have looked at your intellect as something to be admired
31:10but i assure you
31:11everyone will forget who you are when they see what i am capable of
31:14you may have my brain for mathematics
31:17languages and music
31:19but you are definitely your father's son when it comes to empty bluster and spiteful verbal diarrhea
31:26my apologies andrew
31:27i fear we've wasted your time
31:29while ryder has shown great promise in certain areas
31:32i fear he's a product of both his mother and father
31:35and he doesn't have the social skills or humanity worthy of this program
31:39i believe it would be best for the program to choose another prodigy
31:43as you wish
31:45what the actual pho
31:48director roley you must be mistaken
31:51sophia ivy
31:52i don't know what to call her anymore
31:54is deceptive and has been misleading people all of her life
31:58you claim to value academia above all else
32:02and yet you never realized you were married to the smartest woman of our time
32:07and that she is also the only child of isaac and diana wright
32:10are you talking about wright industries
32:15isaac and diana wright
32:17who do you think sponsors our program
32:20you are hosting an event for the smartest and wealthiest people in the nation
32:24and you don't even know who any of them are
32:27miss prinin
32:29you have accused me numerous times of living a life of lies
32:33and yet
32:34you're not actually a prinny are you
32:37is this true
32:41so you knew
32:43i wasn't who i was all along
32:45i'm literally one of the smartest people in the world
32:48wasn't hard to figure it out
32:51sign the divorce papers
32:53let's end this
32:55i'll need time
32:56of course to review these and ensure the proper elements are all in order
33:01property and asset division
33:02debts and liabilities
33:04spousal support
33:06what are you saying
33:07you're rich right
33:09i forgive you for everything
33:11we can work through this
33:13for the children
33:15you really had everyone fooled
33:17the secret to a great relationship
33:19is maintaining curiosity
33:20and i'll be damned if i am not curious
33:23as to where this is all going
33:25i agree
33:26i am curious too
33:28what kind of a mentor to your son would i be
33:30if i didn't help his parents find a way to stay together
33:33what are you doing this isn't right
33:37you said you wanted this too
33:38if you insist
33:41i guess we'll just have to split your assets in half
33:44you're not getting a single cent from my family
33:46i don't make the laws
33:49i just follow them
33:51you cheated
33:52legally you leave with nothing
33:55cheated?
33:56i've always been upfront and honest
33:58you're the one with the secret family and different names
34:02do you really want to play this out in court?
34:04you're lucky i'm only asking for half
34:07fine
34:09you want evidence?
34:15are you sure you want to do this?
34:21this medical report proves that scarlet is pregnant
34:24five weeks six days
34:26you two are about to have a child
34:28and you're still pretending to be strangers
34:33fake news
34:35this is clearly ai
34:37that doesn't even look like me
34:39feels pretty real to me
34:41you've always wanted to be famous scarlet
34:44how do you like it now?
34:45ugh
34:47can't believe he did it with his son's mentor
34:50sign the divorce papers
34:52now
34:56you are despicable
34:57i won't sign this
34:59oh
35:00so you are willing to let scarlet's baby
35:04grow up as a bastard?
35:06Tristan
35:07maybe we should sign
35:09rider is our future
35:12we have a
35:13a lot to think about here
35:15rider's mind is worth more than her inheritance
35:18she's right
35:20i can't keep begging her like this
35:21rider can make twice more money than what her family has
35:26we'll see
35:31i didn't know sofia could be so ruthless
35:34how did she even find out about you embezzling money from your company?
35:37i don't know
35:39i had to give my lawyer everything i own
35:42to just stay out of jail
35:44what about rider now?
35:46who will take care of him?
35:48where's your mother?
35:49she left the moment we moved to this house
35:53rider's violin is worth at least 300,000
35:56we can buy him a new one once we're back on our feet
36:00sell it
36:01sell it yourself
36:08do you like this piano mia?
36:10i love it mom
36:12but it's too costly
36:14i want to be the world's best pianist
36:16i won't let you down
36:18but i don't need fancy things
36:21rider
36:22do you want to play your latest consorto for your sister?
36:25i think she may prefer songs played on a kazoo
36:28i'd hate to overstimulate her fragile body or
36:31risk upsetting the delicate blood type of hers
36:34with anything too sophisticated
36:38that's the violin i bought for rider
36:39it was imported from germany and is considered one of the finest violins ever made
36:48are you crazy?
36:49do you even know how much it costs?
36:51it doesn't matter
36:52you better compensate me for this
36:55or i'll call the police
36:57did you forget that i bought it?
36:59i have the receipt to prove it
37:00what about you?
37:01you can see it clearly now don't you?
37:04without me you can't even survive
37:15your new boyfriend is quite the violent man
37:17i'd be careful if i were you
37:18remember you are setting an example for that young daughter of yours
37:24thank you lucas
37:27mr lucas
37:27you are a smart man

37:32my brother is smart
37:33very smart
37:34do you think if i work hard i could be that smart too?

37:47i have every confidence your mother will give you everything you need to be happy in this life
37:55i am not sure this is a good idea
37:57do you have a better idea?
37:59rider is her son
38:03why are you sneaking around in front of my house?
38:05your son can't afford his schooling and needs money so he can continue on his path
38:09so that's why you're here?
38:11you need me?
38:13are you that desperate?
38:15you must be
38:16else why would you come here begging?
38:18come on
38:19it's for your kid
38:20i am pretty sure wider made it clear he'd prefer it if scarlet was his mother
38:25scarlet?
38:25can you pre his loan visit your money for their schooling?
38:29heartless bitch
38:31once rider completes his dissertation he'll have offers from all the biggest companies in the world
38:35we don't need you or your money
38:37nothing would bring me greater joy and to see my children happy and successful

40:51and confess you are deeply in love with you and only you
40:56ivy
41:02i have found a way to love myself again
41:04and in doing so i finally opened up to having others love me for who i really am
41:12you gotta be careful around men looking for sloppy seconds
41:15and women who do the same
41:17you bitch
41:18the ink isn't even dry on our divorce papers and you're already seeing someone else?
41:22you are such an ignorant hypocrite
41:27ivy
41:28i know these ecuadorian roses are your favorite
41:31i had them shipped in from paris
41:33that is so thoughtful
41:35i do like occasionally like to indulge in the finer things in life
41:41do you really think this whatever he is supposed to be can make you happy?
41:44i guess he'll have an easier time now that i've loosened you up for him
41:50nobody speaks to her like that
41:52ow see i told you he was violent
41:55stop it stop fighting
42:04ah i'm bleeding
42:21how is she?
42:22she's going to be okay
42:25but i'm very sorry we couldn't save the baby
42:34you killed our child
42:45scarlet
42:46i'm heartbroken too
42:48it was an accident
42:50it doesn't matter if you did it on purpose or not
42:53it's all your fault
42:57scarlet the one who should really be blamed is ivy
42:59if she hadn't pushed me would things have turned physical?
43:01stop blaming her for everything
43:03this is a hundred percent on you
43:04you are always running from responsibility
43:08how did i not see you were a terrible father?
43:11how you've already abandoned your daughter and now our baby?
43:13the baby didn't even have a name
43:14you weren't even in your second trimester
43:16i am sad too but we can make another one
43:19and the child we need to focus on most is still rider
43:24i swear you love that child more than you've loved any woman
43:30i apologize if i've ever given anyone the impression otherwise
43:33rider is your child with ivy i wanted one that was our own
43:38so you've never considered rider your son at all
43:42i have always loved that child like my own
43:44but no matter what you do he'll always be a reminder of her
43:55why do i feel like you didn't have running into tristan and scarlet
43:58on your bingo card when you were planning this night
44:02i feel like you've always been there for me when i need you most
44:07ivy i want to always be there for you when you need me most
44:10you really went all out with the flowers tonight
44:15ivy i want us to be together
44:19i have two children with a knightner of a father
44:21i've been dismissive of my potential
44:23i think you've always been exactly who you needed to be at the time
44:27nothing about what i've done the choices i've made the life i've created should appeal to you
44:32ivy every ounce of your essence appeals to me
44:36that wouldn't be fair to you hiding my feelings and not asserting myself earlier is what has been
44:41unfair to me and you lucas i've been so focused on being a mother being a wife
44:47i've stopped focusing on what it also means to be me i'm not sure i am ready to start a
44:51new
44:51relationship i wouldn't want to lose myself again i wouldn't ever want any version of you
44:54that wasn't the most truthful and self-loving version of yourself i'm not worthy of you right now
45:01right now i'm in a place where i've needed you to save me countless times
45:04i like being there for you and for this to ever work i need to know i can be there
45:09for you and my
45:09children too ivy i've waited for this for a long time and i'd spend the rest of my days waiting
45:15if
45:15that's what it takes i want us to be together but when you're ready and never sooner nor a minute
45:19later
45:24you lost our house you lost our baby and now can't even find the remote control
45:29pristan are you here just to make my life even harder i've given up everything for you
45:33in fact your pregnancy fast-tracked my divorce to idy you were gonna leave her anyway
45:39why do you keep bringing her up do you want her back is that it shut up both of you
45:49stop fighting
45:51all right we'll stop fighting as you can see we are all willing to invest everything we have in you
45:57my son you are our future you are the future for all of us writer sweetheart we are all counting
46:05on
46:05you this upcoming american scholarship program is a chance to show that ungrateful mother of yours
46:09how great you truly are do well there and we will live a life that none of us have even
46:13imagined
46:20today is the day we announce the results of the qualifying tests
46:24for the american scholarship program welcome everyone
46:33if you will turn your attention to the main aisle you will see one of this year's top participants
46:37ryder miller he is always impressive and we all predict him to be at the top when the results are
46:42announced i could get used to this
46:48this is just the beginning once ryder's results are announced this will be our daily life
46:54today we are also honored to welcome a very special guest she is the founder of this amazing
47:00program and one of the sharpest minds of our time dr ivy wright
47:17an interesting development in recent weeks is that dr wright has both of her children her son
47:23ryder and her daughter miya compete in the exams one week ago miya really this is why dei
47:32programs don't work what a joke is she gonna fill out her forms in crayon unbelievable is this some
47:41make-a-wish thing everyone is here for ryder why do you insist on embarrassing yourself and our children
47:52wrong everyone is here to see the new candidates who are selected in the american scholarship program
47:58i just hope your ryder can keep up with all this pressure
48:02i think ryder is going to be fine once the results confirm ryder as the top candidate
48:09do not try to steal his spotlight with all of the i'm his mommy nonsense this is his day not
48:14yours
48:15if your intellect matched your overconfidence you might actually be dangerous
48:20i love how you never let facts or reality get in the way of your opinions it's actually quite
48:25fascinating ladies and gentlemen if everyone could please take their seats we will shortly be
48:31announcing the results of this year's competition should ryder sit with us or up there with you
48:39what makes more sense so it is easiest for him to make his speech
48:48the results for ryder miller
48:56in the math event five points in the literature event five points and five points in the languages event
49:12together with the remaining events ryder has scored a total of 20 points ryder would
49:17unfortunately be disqualified from the program that's impossible you must have the wrong name
49:24on the forms ryder is a child prodigy ouch feels a little low even for ryder you've been a distraction
49:34and likely the reason he couldn't focus and now the results from mia miller she has scored 150 points
49:39in the next event a perfect score 150 points in literature and 150 points in languages
49:49that is a record which will never be broken i'm not sure her own mother would have scored that high
49:57dr wright mia's results were off the charts mr miller you must be so proud of your daughter
50:06sure sure ryder didn't fare as well as anyone thought but i can't let this end like this
50:14you you have all been kept in the dark i can't believe it there have been things clearly kept from
50:22you
50:25mr miller what exactly is it that you are trying to say is there a reason why ryder scored so
50:30low
50:30ryder miller the biological son of dr ivy wright was so traumatized by his mother's
50:35infidelities and abandonment he was competing in these events under incredible duress she has taunted
50:42him in recent weeks parading around with her scandalous boyfriend and routinely abandoning him no you left me
50:50you cheated on me i did nothing wrong you never have taken any accountability for anything have you
50:58you even pretended to be someone else to trick me into marrying you my son
51:06deserves another chance she took everything from us ryder and i were left with nothing
51:14he's just a child what kind of kid could survive that level of humiliation these are all lies is that
51:21right right sophia or is it ivy are you even able to keep it straight you have convinced ryder i
51:30am
51:31his enemy for years now you give me too much credit is there any child who doesn't want his mother
51:39tristan miller i thought i warned you about this already
51:45right on schedule this is the man who has destroyed our family and helped ryder's mother to crush his
51:52future and what is your connection to the miller family how do you know dr right are you really her
51:59lover yes but this is all recent after ivy divorced her husband after we found him cheating on her with
52:06miss scarlet here liar we've all seen the video tristan your lies end today you did everything in your
52:15power to make me leave and every time i tried to protect our children from our lies you turned them
52:21against me you made my own child my son wish he could be raised by another woman
52:32rider how do you feel about all of this do you feel your mother abandoned you i don't like that
52:38woman i prefer miss prinin she's been more of a mother to me than anyone else in this world she's
52:45always been more like a mother than a tutor to me when my father would take me to academic camps
52:50she'd find a way to be there even when my own mother wasn't there she would even save my family
52:55money on these trips by sleeping in the same bed as my father so we didn't need a second room
53:03the boy is confused i did not sleep in the same bed as his father why would you say that
53:09my son is a
53:11genius but his road has not been easy he was raised by a mother who spins webs of lies and
53:17can't always
53:17tell fact from fiction as you can see her deceptive ways continue to haunt the poor boy she's
53:25jealous of her son she tried to hide who she was and now she's trying to hide who he can
53:30be
53:31this is a pattern nobody is buying any of this tristan good because i am not selling anything
53:38i am just stating facts in some parts of this world things like the truth and honesty still
53:43mean something i couldn't agree more
53:49isn't that mr baker writer's sponsor didn't he fund the kids training and examination charges
53:55i am glad you are here mr baker are you sure there have been some concerns raised about ethics and
54:02trust of this program sir really you are the one to talk about ethics i didn't catch it at first
54:10in
54:11fact i didn't catch it at all it was professors seaton myers and durden who brought it to my
54:16attention i don't understand while you are undoubtedly one of the least intelligent people in this room
54:22i highly suspect this is something you do actually understand do you remember why i agreed to sponsor
54:27your son it was because of his scores in the last three qualifying exams there were three qualifying
