00:31This is for you.
00:32So what's next in life of a genius mathematician?
00:37Thanks, Lucas.
00:39Well, I met someone this past summer. It was so...
00:44Freeing. So different.
00:46He saw me as a normal woman.
00:48I didn't have to speak about my brains or the family I came from.
00:51Are you sure?
00:53You just got your PhD in mathematics from Harvard.
00:56You know, math has always been easy for me.
00:57But the life I've been living, it's quite empty.
01:01All this recognition feels like a burden.
01:05I want a family, Lucas.
01:07I am not sure I can ever have that if I am always living in the shadow of Ivy Wright.
01:12You're not in the shadow of Ivy Wright.
01:17You are Ivy Wright.
01:19I know.
01:20But I want to fall in love, get married, and live a simple happy life.
01:29Ironically, the life of academia I tried to leave behind has found me once more through my son.
01:35Ryder, at the age of 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 a simple housewife.
01:47I just hope this pressure is easier on my son than it was on me.
01:51Ryder, who do you credit most for your incredible intellect?
02:06I want to thank my dad and my mentor, Miss Printing.
02:10I have inherited my dad's incredible genes, and I am grateful for the guidance I got from the scarlet print.
02:21Is everyone hungry?
02:28Miss Printing, you can join us too.
02:38Come on, Sophia, let's not be selfish.
02:41This is Ryder's Day.
02:43Let him sit with his father and tutor to enjoy the moment.
02:45You too can eat the leftovers after we are done.
02:52Why is everyone being mean?
02:56This is a special day for Ryder.
02:59They are just caught up in the excitement.
03:02More!
03:04You've worked up quite an appetite.
03:06Let his sister do it.
03:07Her 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 Kluds 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.
03:35Lighten up.
03:36Why are you always such a buzzkill?
03:38Why are you always such a buzzkill?
03:52An exciting episode.
04:22I have no idea that you speak French.
04:25I ask for your respect, Finn.
04:27Ryder, I am my 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.
04:40Don'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 going to stop her?
04:58No need.
05:00They 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.
05:28You aren't to blame for any of this.
05:30You were right.
05:31Your brother was being mean.
05:33and I should have done something about it.
05:41You are dead.
05:42Meera!
05:47She's lost a lot of blood.
05:49She needs surgery immediately.
05:51Her blood type is AB negative.
05:52And without a donor,
05:53I fear the surgery will be too risky.
05:57Mommy.
05:58Am I going to die?
06:00No, sweethearts. Mommy's here. There's nothing we can do for you.
06:10Ryder, you're here. Your care. Your care. You share the same blood of alcohol.
06:15I am doing this. Your self.
06:19Ryder.
06:20Enough. These are more than just games. They're for keeping your sanity.
06:26Tristan, your care is his life.
06:28It's her life. You overreact to everything.
06:31She was hurt because you weren't there.
06:33Why not offer your own blood?
06:35My blood is not a match.
06:37Why is everything always for you?
06:41She doesn't have much time. She can't do it.
06:48What are you saying?
06:50She lost a lot of blood. She fell into a coma.
06:53We need to find a donor. In an hour, it's our only hope.
06:56Tristan, Ryder listen to you.
06:59Please, you have to help.
07:01All right. That's enough.
07:04After all, I am her father.
07:07Stop always trying to make me the bad guy.
07:09Your sister can't wait any longer. Go.
07:11Wait. 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.
07:23I can't quite accept that you sacrificed your daughter.
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?
07:44You know this for a fact.
07:45You coddle that poor girl and are always trying to have her piggyback off Ryder's accomplishments.
07:50But this?
07:52I can't forgive this.
07:54Please.
07:54She'll die without his blood.
08:15Miss Prynne, thank 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.
08:39Lucas?
08:41Do you want a break?
08:42I can sit with Mia.
08:44No, no.
08:45The doctors told me you're responsible for tracking down a blood donor for Mia.
08:49Turns out AB negative is super rare.
08:53But it's something Mia and I have in common.
08:55How can I ever repay you?
08:58Don't be like that.
09:00I am always happy to help.
09:02I heard what happened with Tristan and Ryder.
09:04How could they leave like that without even caring about Mia?
09:08You deserve more.
09:09Does he even care?
09:16Maybe he still cares deep down after all.
09:20Lucas, I need to take Mia home after this.
09:23Of course.
09:25I'll drive you home.
09:38I'll drive you home.
09:40What are you doing?
09:46What were you doing?
09:48Aren't you ashamed?
09:50Do you want to sleep with him?
09:53Enough!
09:59Tristan, why did you call me home?
10:02If you were only going to insult me with this?
10:04I called you because the dishes aren't going to clean by themselves.
10:08And tomorrow we are throwing Ryder at a party.
10:10And we invited some prestigious guests including Dr. Wright.
10:15Who has apparently come out of her reclusive shell for this event.
10:20It's important that we all play nice.
10:22For Ryder's benefit and future.
10:25If things go well, who knows?
10:28Perhaps Dr. Wright may even consider taking our son on as her student.
10:31Since you are so busy planning Ryder's party by sleeping with her,
10:35you might not have found the time to ask about your daughter.
10:40Mia, we were able to find a donor.
10:42She is waiting downstairs in the car to see her father.
10:46I knew she'd be alright.
10:48You're always overreacting.
10:50What makes you think Dr. Wright would work with Ryder?
10:53You don't even know Dr. Wright.
10:55Trust me, I know Dr. Wright.
10:58You do?
11:00Well, I know her type.
11:01Believe me, she'll want to work with Ryder.
11:04But I am not sure how'd she feel about you.
11:06On that we may agree.
11:08I am not sure Dr. Wright would even know who I am at all.
11:11You were so different when we met.
11:14As soon as we had kids, you ignored me and they became your focus.
11:18And once I focused more on the kids, you became jealous and so bitchy.
11:22Kid.
11:24Kid?
11:25You only focused on Ryder.
11:27That too after I proved he had the intellect to become a genius.
11:31You always acted like Mia was never born.
11:35Did you ever really love us?
11:41Fine.
11:43If that's how it is, then I want a divorce.
11:46A divorce?
11:47How will you live?
11:49Everything you have, everything you are, is because of me.
11:52There would be no Sophia Miller if it weren't for me.
11:55You're right.
11:56You are the reason Sophie Miller exists.
12:00So let's relieve you and the world from this burden.
12:03Take back the things you gave to give her life.
12:09This cheap cardigan.
12:11I know it's a knockoff.
12:12And these pearls.
12:15You bought your mother gold and gave your own wife plastic.
12:21Are you finished?
12:23No, but we are.
12:34I'm leaving you.
12:36We're done.
12:37My feelings for you made me blind to who you really are.
12:40They made me blind to who I really am.
12:52Ah, now I get it.
12:54You found yourself a new man.
12:56And all of a sudden you want to divorce me.
13:00Mind your words.
13:02God, Tristan, not everyone is a cheater like you.
13:05We are done here.
13:07My lawyers will contact you for the proceedings.
13:16Look, Ryder.
13:17Your mom is leaving you.
13:18Since when are you so concerned about me?
13:20Enough with this nonsense.
13:22Get lost already.
13:24Where are you going?
13:25Are you abandoning your family?
13:27Ryder, you are welcome to join us.
13:30What kind of life would that be?
13:32Do you really think you are everything you are without what I've shared with you?
13:35Miss Prynne has been more than a mother to me than you ever were.
13:39Who are you?
13:41You're nothing.
13:42Do you know about the things I sacrificed to have you?
13:46Who knows, in another life I may have been a Dr. Ivy Wright.
13:52More like Dr. Wrong than Dr. Wright.
13:54So true.
13:56We are done here.
13:58I'll have the divorce papers drawn up tomorrow.
14:03Sophia's threats of divorce are going to completely steal focus from Ryder's party tomorrow.
14:07Perhaps there is another way to frame this.
14:10The tragic, devoted single father raising his genius child on his own.
14:14Maybe you'll become a bigger part of Ryder's story.
14:22Smart and sexy.
14:25Perhaps we don't need to play the single father a bit longer than we have to.
14:41Welcome home, Ms. Wright.
14:50Welcome home, Ms. Wright.
14:52Your parents are in a major project meeting with investors.
14:56I know they are excited to see you.
14:58They just need a moment.
15:00No project is more important than my daughter.
15:10I'm sorry.
15:13We're just glad you're back, Ivy.
15:16Or do you prefer Sophia?
15:17Either way, it's good to have you home.
15:20We've respectfully kept our distance as per your requests.
15:24But I am not sure we can let these recent transactions by your soon-to-be ex-husband go unnoticed.
15:30It looks like Lucas has stood by you whenever you had trouble.
15:34And Sophia?
15:36I will always be here for you.
15:38I am not even sure who I am anymore.
15:43Am I still the same Ivy Wright?
15:46Do I still have that within me?
15:48You have always been Ivy Wright.
15:50Even when others called you by another name.
15:53My children, my community, nobody knows me as Ivy Wright.
15:59Then perhaps it's time we reintroduced Dr. Ivy Wright to the world.
16:14I've been someone else for too long.
16:16Welcome back, Ivy Wright.
16:21Thank you honored guests, members of the press, and all of Ryder's friends and champions.
16:27I'm just a single father who worked hard to raise my child.
16:31Mr. Miller, you mentioned you're a single father.
16:34May we ask what happened to Ryder's mother?
16:36The invitation to today's event mentioned Ryder's parents.
16:40My son grew up without a mother's love.
16:43She was never really there for us.
16:45But let's not focus on her.
16:47Today is Ryder's day and a day of celebration.
16:55And Ryder has always had strong maternal guidance from his mentor.
16:59And our dear friend, Scarlet Printing.
17:04Dear friend, hardly feels descriptive enough.
17:07As Scarlet has been more like a mother to Ryder.
17:10We've always considered her a member of the family.
17:19Ryder has completed his early education and will be able to officially graduate high school
17:24within three weeks.
17:26He will immediately engage in the process of his university entrance exams.
17:31Anything you wish to share with those watching on our live stream now?
17:35Does Ryder intend on signing endorsement deals?
17:38In good times, my friends.
17:40Ryder's intend obtaining numerous offers.
17:42He is on pace to enter university as the youngest student since Dr. Ivy Wright.
17:47How does that make you feel?
17:49Yes, Dr. Wright earned her Harvard PhD at 18, an IQ over 230.
17:53She holds three Guinness Book of World Records.
17:56A living legend.
17:58Assuming she's still alive.
18:00Nobody has heard from her in years.
18:01It's like she disappeared off the face of the earth.
18:03Everyone, please calm down.
18:05As a surprise, we've been in contact with some of Dr. Wright's associates.
18:09And she is going to be making a surprise appearance today at Ryder's event.
18:17I've just received a word she'll be here shortly to congratulate my son.
18:22Ryder is excited to meet this incredible woman.
18:27Any discussions on Dr. Wright potentially mentoring the young boy?
18:34Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
18:36Ryder and Dr. Wright haven't even met yet.
18:39And I am sure their intellics will be too much for us to understand.
18:42In terms of what connection they will make.
18:45Dr. Wright?
18:56Sofia?
19:02What are you doing here?
19:05It's my son's big day.
19:07Did you think I'd miss it?
19:09This is embarrassing.
19:10Get out now, before anyone realizes who you really are.
19:14Why are you here?
19:16I'm your mother.
19:18Dad says you're getting divorced.
19:20And I'll have a new mother.
19:21I thought Dr. Ivy Wright was a special guest today.
19:25You need to leave before Dr. Ivy Wright does arrive.
19:28I am here already, my dear.
19:30Are you delusional?
19:32You're out of your freaking mind.
19:35Stop embarrassing yourself.
19:37I've already told everyone Ryder doesn't have a mother.
19:40Doesn't have a mother?
19:41What exactly did you tell everyone?
19:44What have you ever given me?
19:46Dad and Miss Prinin have been my everything.
19:49Do you really believe that?
19:51You are the bitter stone of the world.
19:53The only stain in my life.
19:55I'm ashamed of you!
19:57Respect isn't annoying, you've hurt me.
19:59Because I am your mother.
20:01It's without any chance that you grow because it's on the ground in Mero.
20:04Congrats on your Duotaco app purchase.
20:07Anyone can learn basic French now.
20:10Get out now!
20:13Look, Professor Seton Myers and Durden have arrived to meet Ryder.
20:17See? These three real academic giants came all for Ryder.
20:23Leave now, before you are exposed for who you really are.
20:33Sophia, the three academic giants all came for Ryder.
20:38As a direct result of my invitation.
20:41Really? They all came because of you?
20:45Quiet woman!
20:46The men are talking business here.
20:48Unless you're going to start trick-or-treating,
20:51I suggest you get out of that ridiculous costume
20:53and disappear before you ruin Ryder's event.
20:57You're the one parading around as a reputable academic,
21:00when we can all see through your facade and know
21:03you're just an opportunistic parasite
21:06looking to piggyback off of a child.
21:08Who do you think you are?
21:10I finally know exactly who I am.
21:12Who the hell are you?
21:13You're dressed up as someone else on the day of your son's big event?
21:17Do you think those professors would spare you a glance?
21:20You know what? You're right.
21:21This is Ryder's big day and the important guests you've invited
21:24are clearly here out of respect for you.
21:27Please don't let me keep you.
21:29Hello professors. Welcome to my son's party.
21:33Is it really you?
21:34We heard you had disappeared without a trace.
21:39We've been worried.
21:40We are so incredibly honored to be here with you.
21:48You are all too kind.
21:50I've missed you.
21:52The concerto you composed as a child is still the core focus of my advanced teachings.
21:56It's beautiful beyond words.
21:58That is far too generous.
21:59Your article on fractals and their implications on modern theories and quantum physics
22:04helped me discover a theory that has created technological advancements
22:07I never thought I'd see it in my lifetime.
22:09Your early work offered me the essential tools I needed for my article.
22:14I continue to use your theories on implementing Esperanto as a universal language for our space
22:18program as the most logical form of communication should we ever make first contact.
22:23Wouldn't that be a lovely thing?
22:26Dad, what on earth could they be talking about with mom?
22:31What is this madness?
22:33How is she fooling three of the leading minds of our time?
22:36She is cunning.
22:38She has some dirt on all of you, right?
22:45Everything I am in the academic world is thanks to her research.
22:48She is the epitome of authenticity.
22:50If you question Dr. Wright, you question all of us.
22:55Apologize.
22:56Apologize?
22:57To whom?
22:58The woman you are chatting with is a fraud.
23:01I've known her for years and she is not worthy of your praise or time.
23:04I've lived with you all these years.
23:06I know you better than anyone.
23:08Why is everyone believing this lie?
23:10After years together, you never really knew me, did you?
23:13I can't believe I was so blind.
23:15You never took the time to know me.
23:17Stop this charade.
23:19Apologize now.
23:20You've insulted these intellectual elites and our family with your disappointments.
23:24What gives you the right?
23:27No.
23:29The audacity to try and discredit Dr. Wright.
23:33Wait, what?
23:34Are you saying my mother is Dr. Ivy Wright?
23:38This is insane.
23:40How is she, Dr. Wright?
23:42You've met her.
23:43She's not smart.
23:44If she really is Dr. Wright,
23:47Ryder's opportunities will skyrocket.
23:50Make use of it.
23:52You're right.
23:54Clever.
23:55All right, everyone.
23:57The secret is out.
23:59Everyone, look over here.
24:01The real reason behind this special event, and yes,
24:04our playful games of misdirection are over.
24:06It's time the world knew.
24:09Ryder is the son of the academic wonder child herself.
24:12The mother of my children.
24:15Dr. Ivy Wright.
24:20Wow.
24:21Do you have children?
24:23Please let us know what we can do to ensure he has all of the opportunities
24:26in the world to achieve its potential.
24:28If you think my son is smart, you should meet his sister.
24:32This is my party.
24:34Why are you making this about you?
24:36Miss Prynne is smart and successful.
24:39She's a thousand times better than you.
24:41So what if you have a PhD?
24:43What did you ever do with it?
24:45What a waste.
24:46You really don't know your place.
24:48You have no idea who she is, do you?
24:50I know exactly who she is.
24:52She's been our cook and has washed our laundry and kept our home clean.
24:55She's used her PhD to become the world's best nanny.
24:59Is that who I am to you?
25:02Look, the director of MIT, Dr. Andrew Rowley is here.
25:07This day is supposed to be about Ryder.
25:10Perhaps Director Rowley can help us all get back to where our focus should be.
25:18Do you know how big of a deal it is for us to have him here?
25:24He must have come to scout Ryder for the National Youth Academic Program.
25:27If Ryder is selected for that program, then he is set for life.
25:31I'll make sure he is impressed by Ryder.
25:35Hello, are you Dr. Andrew Rowley?
25:39Yes.
25:40With your busy schedule, we weren't sure if you could make it here.
25:43Are you saying you were hoping I wouldn't come?
25:48No, no, no, that's not what I meant.
25:50Look, everyone here is happier and everything shines brighter with your presence.
25:55Thank you for coming, Director.
26:03You must be thirsty after your journey here.
26:06There's champagne over there.
26:08May I pour you a glass?
26:09Get out of my way.
26:10Please 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 sorry, do you two know each other?
26:23They must have met at a parent meeting.
26:26Please, Dr. Rowley, it is kind of you to assume
26:29the child's mother had something to do with the incredible accomplishments
26:32Ryder has achieved at such an early age, but I assure you...
26:36Why are you still here?
26:40I mean no disrespect, Director Rowley, but you are only here because we invited you.
26:48How dare you?
26:49I 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 is not connected to this young man's development.
27:13Director Rowley, Ryder was nurtured at every step by 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?
27:31You have it all wrong.
27:33She spent all of her time trying to coddle and soft the boy.
27:38I am the one who has honested 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.
27:45She's a moron.
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 disappointment.
28:04Is this how you found favor with the director?
28:08Did you worm your way into his bed?
28:12Is that the only play in your playbook?
28:18Apologize.
28:20Now.
28:21She looks like she's in good hands.
28:24Weird to see a man hold his child teacher closer and with more affection than he's ever held his own
28:30wife.
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.
28:41True.
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 messaging around with him?
28:53Well, he's all yours now.
28:57Here.
29:01You want to embarrass me in front of everyone?
29:03You're embarrassing yourself.
29:06You say I've been living a lie?
29:07Look in the mirror, you hypocrite.
29:10Stop pretending she's your girl and just go public with your relationship.
29:14Sure.
29:15It's less scandalous, but she's probably still fun all the same.
29:19No?
29:19I am Ryder's teacher.
29:20He is my focus.
29:21Your problems with keeping your husband happy are your problems alone.
29:27Why don't you let me focus on Ryder?
29:29And you can try focusing on your husband for 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 both me if we held out our hand right now?
29:43It's normal for a boy to want to impress his father.
29:45Tristan has taken advantage of that for his own selfish needs.
29:50But I can help Ryder get back on the right path.
29:55Ryder, would you like to live with me?
29:58With Mia, I only want the best for you.
30:01You are my son.
30:04I hate being your son.
30:06I don't want to live with you.
30:09I want Miss Prynne to be my mother, not you.
30:12You are a liar and poor and-
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, then I hate you for keeping this from me and living a lie.
30:25If you are poor, you are lying to me now.
30:28Either way, your wish I came from anyone else but you.
30:31If you did love me, you'd die and disappear so I could move on to a better life.
30:36Did you hear that?
30:38Ivy, if you truly love Ryder, then leave him the hell alone.
30:41I hate you!
30:43I hate you!
30:45My own son sees me as his enemy.
30:54Fine then.
30:56Ryder, as per your wishes, I will no longer consider you my son.
31:00Oh no.
31:02How will Ryder ever survive without you?
31:05Once upon a time, these people may have looked at your intellect as something to be admired.
31:10But I assure you, everyone will forget who you are when they see what I am capable of.
31:15You may have my brain for mathematics, languages, 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.
31:28I fear we've wasted your time.
31:30While Ryder has shown great promise in certain areas, I 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.
31:46What the actual pho?
31:48Director Rowley, you must be mistaken.
31:51Sophia, Ivy, I 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?
32:14Isaac 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.
32:25And you don't even know who any of them are?
32:27Ms. Prennan.
32:29You have accused me numerous times of living a life of lies.
32:33And yet, you're not actually a Prenny, are you?
32:37Is this true?
32:41So you knew I wasn't who I was all along?
32:45I'm literally one of the smartest people in the world.
32:48It wasn't hard to figure it out.
32:51Sign the divorce papers.
32:54Let's end this.
32:55I'll need time, of course, to review these and ensure the proper elements are all in order.
33:01Property and asset division, debts and liabilities, spousal support.
33:06What are you saying?
33:08You'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 is maintaining curiosity.
33:21And I'll be damned if I am not curious as 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 if I didn't help his parents find a way
33:33to stay together?
33:33What are you doing?
33:35This isn't right.
33:37You said you wanted this too.
33:39If you insist, I guess we'll just have to split your assets in half.
33:44You're not getting a single cent from my family.
33:47I don't make the laws.
33:50I 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.
34:09Do you want evidence?
34:15Are you sure you want to do this?
34:21This medical report proves that Scarlett 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.
34:40Feels pretty real to me.
34:42You've always wanted to be famous, Scarlett.
34:44How do you like it now?
34:47Can't believe he did it with his son's mentor.
34:51Sign the divorce papers.
34:53Now.
34:56You are despicable.
34:58I won't sign this.
34:59Oh.
35:01So you are willing to let Scarlett's baby grow up as a bastard?
35:06Tristan, maybe we should sign.
35:09Ryder is our future.
35:12We have a... a lot to think about here.
35:15Ryder's mind is worth more than her inheritance.
35:19She's right.
35:20I can't keep begging her like this.
35:22Ryder can make twice more money than what her family has.
35:26We'll see.
35:31I didn't know Sophia 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 owned to just stay out of jail.
35:44What about Ryder now?
35:46Who will take care of him?
35:48Where's your mother?
35:49She left the moment we moved to this house.
35:53Ryder'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.
36:07Do 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, but I don't need fancy things.
36:21Ryder, do you want to play your latest consortium for your sister?
36:25I think she may prefer songs played on a kazoo.
36:28I'd hate to overstimulate her fragile body or risk upsetting the delicate blood type of hers
36:34with anything too sophisticated.
36:38That's the violin I bought for Ryder.
36:40It 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.
36:53You better compensate me for this or 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.
37:19Remember, you are setting an example for that young daughter of yours.
37:24Thank you, Lucas.
37:27Mr. Lucas, you are a smart man.
37:29May I ask you a question?
37:31Of course, Mia.
37:32What is it?
37:32My brother is smart.
37:34Very smart.
37:35Do you think if I work hard, I could be that smart too?
37:37You are already a smart girl, darling.
37:40In many ways, smarter than your brother already.
37:42But more importantly than being a smart girl, I want you to be a happy girl.
37:46Mia, you're amazing.
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?
37:59Ryder is her son.
38:03Why are you sneaking around in front of my house?
38:05Your son can't afford his school and he needs money so he can continue on his path.
38:09So that's why you're here?
38:11Do you need me?
38:13Are you that desperate?
38:15You must be.
38:17Else, why would you come here begging?
38:18Come on.
38:19It's for your kid.
38:21I am pretty sure Ryder made it clear he'd prefer it if Scarlet was his mother.
38:25Scarlet, can you prepay your money for their schooling?
38:29Heartless, bitch.
38:31Once Ryder completes his dissertation, he'll have offers from all the biggest companies in the world.
38:36We don't need you or your money.
38:38Nothing would bring me greater joy and to see my children happy and successful.
38:42Let's go.
38:53Mom, look.
38:55Straight A's again.
38:56She's remarkable.
38:57She's almost finished the high school curriculum.
38:59This would be three full weeks earlier than her brother did it.
39:02Mia, you are doing so well.
39:04Would you want to take the university entrance exams and consider some bigger paths?
39:08Yes.
39:08I want to be like mommy.
39:10I want to make her proud.
39:12You already do my darling every day.
39:15How shall we celebrate your straight A's today?
39:19I want both of you to kiss me at the same time and maybe some ice cream.
39:36I knew it. I knew you both liked each other.
39:40You little rascal.
39:43Hey, Mia, be careful.
39:45I adore our little girl.
39:47What did you say?
39:48Ah, nothing.
39:50Just saying what a great kid she is.
39:52I overheard you talking to your father on the phone earlier.
39:54Is everything okay?
39:55He is getting old. He wants me to take over the company.
39:58I'm just not sure where to start. I've been focused on my family and children for so long.
40:02This phone contains the numbers of venture capitalist strategists.
40:05They will all be more than happy to guide you.
40:08Lucas, thank you.
40:10Your happiness will always be what is most important to me.
40:12Why have I rejected him all of these years?
40:15He's always been the one person who truly cared about me.
40:18After Mia goes to bed, would you walk with me tonight?
40:21I'd love to get some fresh air and see the stars.
40:24I'd like that too.
40:30These aren't so bad, are they?
40:32Pretty cheap and fresh.
40:35Look, is that Ivy?
40:36Let's go check it out.
40:40Well, well.
40:41Out all alone celebrating yourself with candles and flowers?
40:44No, you're not batshit crazy at all.
40:47I knew it.
40:48You love yourself so much you've decided to make it official
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've 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 lost you up for him.
41:50Nobody speaks to her like that.
41:52Wow! See, I told you he was violent!
41:56Stop it! Stop fighting!
42:05I'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!
42:44Scarlet.
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 100% on you.
43:05You are always running from responsibility.
43:09How 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 Ryder.
43:24I swear you love that child more than you've loved any woman.
43:30I apologize if I've never given anyone the impression otherwise.
43:33Ryder is your child with Ivy.
43:35I wanted one that was our own!
43:38So you've never considered Ryder your son at all?
43:42I have always loved that child like my own.
43:55Why do I feel like you didn't have running into Tristan and Scarlet on your bingo card when you were
43:59planning 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 knight 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.
44:37Hiding my feelings and not asserting myself earlier is what has been unfair to me.
44:42And you.
44:43Lucas, 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.
44:49I'm not sure I'm ready to start a new relationship.
44:52I wouldn't want to lose myself again.
44:53I wouldn't ever want any version of you that wasn't the most truthful and self-loving version of yourself.
44:58I'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.
45:06And for this to ever work, I need to know I can be there for you and my children too.
45:11Ivy, I've waited for this for a long time.
45:14And I'd spend the rest of my days waiting if that's what it takes.
45:16I want us to be together, but when you're ready, and never sooner nor a minute later.
45:24You lost our house.
45:26You lost our baby.
45:27And now you can't even find the remote control.
45:29Kristen, are you here just to make my life even harder?
45:32I've given up everything for you.
45:34In fact, your pregnancy fast-tracked my divorce to Ivy.
45:36You were going to leave her anyway.
45:39Why do you keep bringing her up?
45:40Do you want her back?
45:42Is that it?
45:43No!
45:44No!
45:45No!
45:45No!
45:47Shut up, both of you.
45:49Stop fighting!
45:52All right.
45:53We'll stop fighting.
45:54As you can see, we are all willing to invest everything we have in you, my son.
45:58You are our future.
46:00You are the future for all of us.
46:03Ryder, sweetheart, we are all counting on you.
46:05This upcoming American Scholarship Program is a chance to show that ungrateful mother of yours
46:09How great you truly are.
46:11Do well there, and we will live a life that none of us have even imagined.
46:20Today is the day we announce the results of the qualifying tests for the American Scholarship Program.
46:28Welcome, everyone.
46:33If you will turn your attention to the main aisle,
46:35you will see one of this year's top participants, Ryder Miller.
46:38He is always impressive, and we all predict him to be at the top when the results are announced.
46:44I could get used to this.
46:48This is just the beginning.
46:50Once Ryder's results are announced, this will be our daily life.
46:54Today, we are also honored to welcome a very special guest.
46:58She is the founder of this amazing program and one of the sharpest minds of our time, Dr. Ivy Wright.
47:18An interesting development in recent weeks is that Dr. Wright has both of her children,
47:22her son, Ryder, and her daughter, Mia, compete in the exams one week ago.
47:28Mia?
47:30Really?
47:31This is why DEI programs don't work.
47:34What a joke.
47:35Is she going to fill out her forms in pencil?
47:38How unbelievable.
47:40Is this some make-a-wish thing?
47:43Everyone is here for Ryder.
47:46Why do you insist on embarrassing yourself and our children?
47:50Wrong.
47:52Everyone 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.
48:05Once 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.
48:13This is his day, not yours.
48:16If 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.
48:24It's actually quite fascinating.
48:27Ladies and gentlemen, if everyone could please take their seats.
48:30We will shortly be announcing the results of this year's competition.
48:35Should 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
48:57In the math event, five points.
49:02In the literature event, five points.
49:05And five points in the languages event.
49:12Together with the remaining events, Ryder has scored a total of 20 points.
49:17Ryder would unfortunately be disqualified from the program.
49:21That's impossible.
49:22You must have the wrong name on the forms.
49:26Ryder is a child prodigy.
49:28Ouch.
49:30Feels a little low.
49:32Even for Ryder.
49:33You've been a distraction and likely the reason he couldn't focus.
49:36And now the results for Mia Miller.
49:38She scored 150 points in the next event.
49:40A perfect score.
49:43150 points in literature and 150 points in languages.
49:50That is a record which will never be broken.
49:52I'm not sure her own mother would have scored that high.
49:58Dr. Wright! Mia's results were off the charts.
50:02Mr. Miller, you must be so proud of your daughter.
50:06Sure, Ryder didn't fare as much as anyone thought, but I can't let this end like this.
50:14You, you have all been kept in the dark!
50:18I can't believe it.
50:20There have been things clearly kept from you.
50:25Mr. Miller, what exactly is it that you are trying to say?
50:28Is there a reason why Ryder scored so low?
50:30Ryder Miller, the biological son of Dr. Ivy Wright, was so traumatized by his mother's infidelities and abandonment, he was
50:37competing in these events under incredible duress.
50:41She has taunted him in recent weeks, parading around with her scandalous boyfriend and routinely abandoning him.
50:48No, you left me.
50:51You cheated on me. I didn't do anything wrong.
50:54You have never taken any accountability for anything, have you?
50:58You even pretended to be someone else.
51:01To trick me into marrying you?
51:04My son deserves another chance.
51:08She took everything from us.
51:12Ryder and I were left with nothing.
51:14He's just a child. What kind of kid could survive that level of humiliation?
51:19These are all lies!
51:21Is that right?
51:23Sophia?
51:24Or is it Ivy?
51:26Are you even able to keep it straight?
51:28You have convinced Ryder I am his enemy for years now.
51:33You give me too much credit.
51:36Is there any child who doesn't want his mother?
51:39Tristan Miller.
51:41I thought I warned you about this already.
51:45Right on schedule.
51:48This is the man who destroyed our family and helped Ryder's mother to crush his future.
51:53And what is your connection to the Miller family?
51:56How do you know Dr. Right?
51:58Are you really her lover?
51:59Yes.
52:00But this is all recent.
52:03After Ivy divorced her husband after we found him cheating on her with Miss Scarlet here.
52:08Liar!
52:10We've all seen the video, Tristan.
52:12Your lies end today.
52:14You did everything in your power to make me leave.
52:17And every time I tried to protect our children from our lies, you turned them against me.
52:22You made my own child.
52:25My son wished he could be raised by another woman.
52:31Ryder?
52:32How do you feel about all of this?
52:35Do you feel your abandoned mother?
52:37I don't like that woman.
52:39I prefer Miss Prynne.
52:41She's been more of a mother to me than anyone else in this world.
52:44She's always been more like a mother than a tutor to me.
52:47When my father would take me to academic camps, she'd find a way to be there.
52:52Even when my own mother wasn't there.
52:54She would even save my family money on these trips by sleeping in the same bed as my father, so
53:00We didn't need a second room.
53:03The boy is confused I did not sleep in the same bed as his father.
53:08Why would you say that?
53:10My son is a genius, but his road has not been easy.
53:14He was raised by a mother who spins webs of lies and can't always tell fact from fiction.
53:19As you can see, her deceptive ways continue to haunt the poor boy.
53:25She's jealous of her son.
53:27She tried to hide who she was and now she's trying to hide who he can be.
53:31This is a pattern.
53:33Nobody is buying any of this, Tristan.
53:35Good.
53:36Because I am not selling anything.
53:38I am just stating facts.
53:40In some parts of this world, things like the truth and honesty still mean something.
53:44I couldn't agree more.
53:50Isn't that Mr. Baker?
53:52Ryder's sponsor?
53:53Didn't he fund the kids' training and examination charges?
53:55I am glad you are here, Mr. Baker.
53:58Are you sure?
53:59There have been some concerns raised about ethics and trust of this program, sir.
54:04Really?
54:05Are you the one to talk about ethics?
54:08I didn't catch it at first.
54:10In fact, I didn't catch it at all.
54:12It was Professors Seton, Myers, and Durden who brought it to my attention.
54:17I don't understand.
54:18While you are undoubtedly one of the least intelligent people in this room,
54:22I highly suspect this is something you do actually understand.
54:26Do you remember why I agreed to sponsor your son?
54:29It was because of his scores in the last three qualifying exams.
54:33There were three qualifying tests in the last month
54:36that your son passed with flying colors
54:40before he could appear for this exam.
54:42Turns out you faked your son's grades in all the three exams.
54:47And did a convincing job that even fooled me.
54:50Are you saying Ryder's test results were faked?
54:53So this has all been a deceptive ploy.
54:55I poured a lot of money into your son.
54:58You had convinced me.
55:00This young man was a path to a promising future for all of us.
55:05Mr. Baker, this is all a misunderstanding.
55:09This is the contract you signed.
55:12I think you know where this is going.
55:19What is it?
55:21According to this contract,
55:23if you were to breach its terms, or in other words, if you were to commit fraud,
55:29you would owe me a compensation of 40 million dollars.
55:32I don't have that kind of money.
55:35You better find it, as the alternative is much worse.
55:38How did you let this happen?
55:41Me?
55:42You're the one who said nobody would ever find out.
55:45That's the problem with trying to outsmart people smarter than you.
55:48If either of you were smarter, you'd have realized how stupid your plan was.
55:51I hate you.
55:53Don't be angry, Mom.
55:55I am not your mom.
55:57Get lost.
55:58I hate you too.
56:00I hate all of you.
56:04If you don't give me an answer here, Mr. Miller,
56:07I am afraid I will have to call the authorities and make this a criminal matter.
56:15Ivy.
56:17Please.
56:18For the boy.
56:20This isn't Ryder's debt or fault.
56:22This is on you.
56:24What you have done has violated not only our vows,
56:28but your responsibility to your children.
56:31And quite simply, the law.
56:34I am so, so sorry.
56:40You are going to jail for a long time, Tristan.
56:44And without you, Ryder will go to a foster home.
56:48I hope this is the last time I am ever seeing you.
56:52Goodbye, forever, to both of you.
56:58Stop filming me!
57:03The first prize in today's piano competition goes to Mia Wright.
57:09It's hard to believe such a big, powerful, and beautiful sound came from the small and delicate
57:15little body.
57:16You know her mother is Dr. Ivy Wright, yes?
57:20I want to invite my mom onto the stage.
57:23This honor, I want to give it to her.
57:30Thank you, my sweetheart.
57:32I love you, mommy.
57:35And I love you, sweetie.
57:37I am so proud of you.
57:39Look at the screen!
57:47I've waited all these years, and I agree with Mia.
57:51You do take good care of all of us.
57:55Ivy, will you marry me?
58:03What do you think, honey?
58:22That's what I think.
58:28I will.
