Short filmTranscript
00:09Congratulations, Dr. Ivy Wright, a generational talent.
00:13At 18 years old, she earned her Ph.D. in mathematics from Harvard.
00:19Five years ago, I went by my birth name, Ivy Wright, a celebrated mathematician.
00:32Ivy, this is for you.
00:35So what's next in life of a genius mathematician?
00:39Thanks, Lucas.
00:41Well, I met someone this past summer.
00:43It was so freeing, so different.
00:48He saw me as a normal woman.
00:50I didn't have to speak about my brains or the family I come from.
00:53Are you sure?
00:55You just got your Ph.D. in mathematics from Harvard.
00:57You know, math has always been easy for me, but the life I've been living, it's quite empty.
01:03All this recognition feels like a burden.
01:08I want a family, Lucas.
01:09I am not sure I can ever have that if I am always living in the shadow of Ivy Wright.
01:14You're not in the shadow of Ivy Wright.
01:19You are Ivy Wright.
01:20I know, but I want to fall in love, get married, and live a simple happy day.
01:31Ironically, the life of academia I tried to leave behind has found me once more through my son.
01:37Ryder, at the age five, is ranked highest in International Math Olympiad.
01:43What's it like living with a generational genius?
01:46In everyone's eyes, I am just simple housewife.
01:49I just hope this pressure is easier on my son than it was on me.
01:53Ryder, who do you credit most for your incredible intellect?
02:00Ouch!
02:01Hey!
02:02The kid?
02:04He bit his mom?
02:05Did you see that?
02:09I want to thank my dad and my mentor, Miss Prennan.
02:12I have inherited my dad's incredible genes, and I am grateful for the guidance I got from the scarlet print.
02:23Everyone hungry?
02:31Miss Prennan, you can join us, too.
02:41Come on, Sophia, let's not be selfish.
02:43This is Ryder's Day.
02:45Let him sit with his father and tutor to enjoy the moment.
02:48You, too, can eat the leftovers after we are done.
02:54Why is everyone being mean?
02:58This is a special day for Ryder.
03:01They are just caught up in the excitement.
03:04More!
03:06You've worked up quite an appetite.
03:08Let his sister do it.
03:10Her brother is a genius and will change all of our fortunes.
03:14And it would be better for Mia to learn all this at a young age.
03:18Yes, Grandma.
03:21Ryder!
03:23Why are you yelling at Ryder?
03:25Mia is the Cluds who dropped the bowl.
03:28This mess isn't going to clean itself.
03:31Ryder, I'm your mother.
03:33Who taught you to behave like this?
03:35It's a joke.
03:37Lighten up.
03:38Why are you always such a buzzkill?
03:40Why are you talking about this?
03:43Why are you talking about it?
03:44That's why I'm always so glad.
03:46Why are you talking about it?
03:49Why are you talking about it?
03:49This was a fan's voice.
03:52Try every morning, I'm talking about it.
03:53For a minute, I just think it's a genius.
03:54It's a great week.
04:06I'm still looking at it.
04:10Your first woman is like your first woman. It's great to have you. I just want to see you when
04:16you use SWS.
04:17That's why no one doesn't keep her first woman.
04:21And it's for me what you say.
04:23I had no idea you spoke French.
04:26Faye proof of respect, Finn.
04:29Ryder, I am your mother.
04:32Do you really think it's okay to talk?
04:34Why does this thing talk so much?
04:37Can't it shut up?
04:38Come on. Ryder achieved something incredible today. Let him have his fun. Don't be so fragile.
04:44She's so annoying. If you are so determined to spoil Ryder's day, then perhaps you should leave.
04:52Fine. We are leaving.
04:56Tristan, your wife is leaving you. Aren't you gonna stop her?
05:01No need. They have nowhere to go. They'll be back.
05:08I gave up everything for a family and this is what they gave me in return.
05:12How could they do this to me?
05:14How could they do this to Mia?
05:17Tristan, how did things change so quickly?
05:20You are not the same man I married.
05:22Mom, it's my fault. I ruined Ryder's special day.
05:29No, sweetheart. You aren't to blame for any of this.
05:32You were right. Your brother was being mean and I should have done something about it.
05:48She's lost a lot of blood. She needs surgery immediately. Her blood type is AB negative and without a donor
05:55I fear the surgery will be too risky.
05:59Mommy?
06:00Mommy? Am I going to die?
06:02No, sweetheart. Mommy's here. Nothing will happen to you.
06:12Ryder, you're here. Your sister needs you. You have the same AB negative blood.
06:17I am busy. Leave me alone. Ryder.
06:23Enough. These are more than games. These are to keep his mind sharp.
06:28Tristan, this is his sister's life.
06:31You overreact for everything. She got hurt because you were careless. Why not offer your own blood?
06:37My blood isn't a match. Why is everything always about you?
06:43She doesn't have a lot of time. She might not make it.
06:51What did you say?
06:52She's lost a lot of blood. She's fallen into a coma. We need to find a donor. Within an hour,
06:57it's our only hope.
06:59Tristan, Ryder listens to you. Please, you have to help.
07:03All right. That's enough. After all, I am her father. Stop always trying to make me the bad guy.
07:11Your sister can't wait any longer. Go.
07:14Wait. Mia's in a coma because she's lost too much blood. Now you want me to lose mine too?
07:20What? That's not... I'm your mom.
07:25I can't believe that you have sacrificed your daughter and me.
07:30Hold on. My grandson is a genius. I won't allow any Tom, Dick, Harry to get his blood. It has
07:37his DNA in it.
07:39This isn't for anyone. This is for his sister. His blood has nothing to do with his intellect.
07:44So you're a doctor now? You know this for a fact. You coddle that poor girl and are always trying
07:50to have her piggyback off Ryder's accomplishments.
07:52But this? I can't forgive this. Please. She'll die without his blood.
08:07Please. She'll die without his blood.
08:13Please. She'll die without his blood.
08:15We'll die without your blood.
08:17Bye.
08:18Miss Prinn?
08:19Thank you for coming over. Ryder really likes you.
08:22I'd do anything for him.
08:24You're so nice. I wish you were my mom sometimes.
08:28Yes.
08:42lucas do you want a break i can sit with mia no no the doctors told me you're responsible
08:49for tracking down a blood donor for mia turns out ab negative is super rare but it's something
08:57mia and i have in common how can i ever repay you don't be like that i am always happy
09:03to help
09:04i heard what happened with tristan and rider how could they leave like that without even caring
09:09about mia you deserve more does he even care maybe he still cares deep down after all lucas
09:22i need to take mia home after this of course i'll drive you home
09:42what are you doing
09:48what were you doing aren't you ashamed do you want to sleep with him enough
10:02tristan why did you call me home if you were only going to insult me with this i called you
10:07because
10:08the dishes aren't going to clean by themselves and tomorrow we are throwing rider a party
10:12and we invited some prestigious guests including dr wright who has apparently come out of her
10:20reclusive shell for this event it's important that we all play nice for riders benefit and future if
10:28things go well who knows perhaps dr wright may even consider taking our son on as her student
10:33since you are so busy planning rider's party by sleeping with her you might not have found the
10:39time to ask about your daughter mia we were able to find a donor she is waiting downstairs in the
10:46car
10:47to see her father i knew she'd be all right you're always overreacting what makes you think dr wright
10:54would work with rider you don't even know dr wright trust me i know dr wright you do
11:02well i know her type believe me she'll want to work with rider but i am not sure how'd she
11:07feel
11:08about you on that we may agree i am not sure dr wright would even know who i am at
11:13all you were so
11:14different when we met as soon as we had kids you ignored me and they become your focus and once
11:20i
11:20focused more on the kids you became jealous and so bitchy kid kid you only focused on rider
11:29that too after i proved he had the intellect to become a genius you always acted like mia was
11:36never born did you ever really love us
11:45fine if that's how it is then i want a divorce a divorce how will you live everything you have
11:52everything you are is because of me there would be no sophia miller if it weren't for me you're right
11:58you are the reason sophie miller exists so let's relieve you and the world from this burden
12:05take back the things you gave to give her life
12:11this cheap cardigan i know it's a knockoff and these pearls
12:17you bought your mother gold and gave your own wife plastic
12:23are you finished no but we are
12:36i'm leaving you we're done my feelings for you made me blind to who you really are
12:42they made me blind to who i really am
12:55ah now i get it you found yourself a new man and all of a sudden you want to divorce
13:00me
13:03mind your words god tristan not everyone is a cheater like you

14:00i'll have the divorce papers drawn up tomorrow
14:05sophia's threats of divorce are going to completely steal focus from rider's party tomorrow
14:09perhaps there is another way to frame this the tragic devoted single father raising his
14:15genius child on his own maybe you'll become a bigger part of rider's story
14:24smart and sexy
14:27perhaps we don't need to play the single father bit longer than we have to

15:18or do you prefer sophia
15:19either way it's good to have you home

16:51and a day of celebration
16:57and rider has always had strong maternal guidance from his mentor

22:07that has created technological advancements
22:10i never thought i'd see in my lifetime
22:12your early work offered me the essential tools i needed for my article
22:15i continue to use your theories on implementing esperanto as a universal language for our space program
22:21as the most logical form of communication should we ever make first contact
22:25wouldn't that be a lovely thing
22:28dad what on earth could they be talking about with mom

25:16leave this to me
25:20he is the director of mit dr. andrew roley
25:23do you know how big of a deal it is for us to have him here
25:26he must have come to scout rider for the national youth academic program
25:29if rider is selected for that program
25:31then he is set for life
25:33i'll make sure he is impressed by rider
25:38hello
25:38hello you are dr. andrew roley
25:41yes
25:41with your busy schedule
25:43we weren't sure if you could make it here

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

40:53and confess you are deeply in love with you
40:56and only you
40:59ivy
41:05i have found a way to love myself again
41:07and in doing so i finally opened up to having others love me for who i really am
41:15you gotta be careful around men looking for sloppy seconds
41:17and women who do the same
41:19you bitch
41:21the ink isn't even dry on our divorce papers and you're already seeing someone else
41:24you are such an ignorant hypocrite
41:30ivy
41:31i know these ecuadorian roses are your favorite
41:33i had them shipped in from paris
41:35that is so thoughtful
41:37i do like occasionally like to indulge in the finer things in life
41:44do you really think this whatever he is supposed to be can make you happy
41:47i guess he'll have an easier time now that i've loosened you up for him
41:53nobody speaks to her like that
41:54ow see i told you he was violent
41:58stop it
41:59stop fighting
42:07ah i'm bleeding
42:23how is she
42:25she's going to be okay
42:27but i'm very sorry we couldn't save the baby
42:37you killed our child
42:47scarlet
42:49i'm heartbroken too
42:51it was an accident
42:53it doesn't matter if you did it on purpose or not
42:56it's all your fault
43:00scarlet the one who should really be blamed is ivy
43:02if she hadn't pushed me would things have turned physical
43:04stop blaming her for everything
43:05this is a hundred percent on you
43:07you are always running from responsibility
43:11how did i not see you were a terrible father
43:13how you've already abandoned your daughter and now our baby
43:15the baby didn't even have a name you weren't even in your second trimester
43:19i am sad too but we can make another one
43:21and the child we need to focus on most is still rider
43:27i swear you love that child more than you've loved any woman
43:33i apologize if i've ever given anyone the impression otherwise
43:36rider is your child with ivy i wanted one that was our own
43:40so you've never considered rider your son at all
43:44i have always loved that child like my own
43:47but no matter what you do
43:48he'll always be a reminder of her
43:58why do i feel like you didn't have running into tristan and scarlet
44:01on your bingo card when you were planning this night
44:05i feel like you've always been there for me when i need you most
44:08ivy
44:10i want to always be there for you when you need me most
44:13you really went all out with the flowers tonight
44:16ivy
44:18i want us to be together
44:21i have two children with a knightner of a father
44:24i've been dismissive of my potential
44:26i think you've always been exactly who you needed to be at the time
44:29nothing about what i've done
44:31the choices i've made
44:32the life i've created should appeal to you
44:35ivy
44:36every ounce of your essence appeals to me
44:38that wouldn't be fair to you
44:40hiding my feelings and not asserting myself earlier is what has been unfair to me
44:44and you
44:45lucas
44:46i've been so focused on being a mother being a wife
44:49i've stopped focusing on what it also means to be me
44:52i'm not sure i'm ready to start a new relationship
44:54i wouldn't want to lose myself again
44:55i wouldn't ever want any version of you
44:57that wasn't the most truthful and self-loving version of yourself
45:01i'm not worthy of you right now
45:03right now i'm in a place where i've needed you to save me countless times
45:07i like being there for you
45:08and for this to ever work
45:10i need to know i can be there for you and my children too
45:13ivy
45:14i've waited for this for a long time
45:16and i'd spend the rest of my days waiting if that's what it takes
45:19i want us to be together but when you're ready
45:21and never sooner nor a minute later
45:27you lost our house
45:28you lost our baby
45:29and now you can't even find the remote control
45:31pristan
45:32are you here just to make my life even harder
45:34i've given up everything for you
45:36in fact your pregnancy fast-tracked my divorce to idy
45:39you were gonna leave her anyway
45:41why do you keep bringing her up
45:43do you want her back
45:44is that it
45:45no
45:50shut up
45:51both of you
45:52stop fighting
45:54all right
45:55we'll stop fighting
45:56as you can see we are all willing to invest everything we have in you my son
46:01you are our future
46:02you are the future for all of us
46:06rider sweetheart we are all counting on you
46:08this upcoming american scholarship program is a chance to show that ungrateful mother of yours
46:12how great you truly are
46:13do well there and we will live a life that none of us have even imagined
46:22today is the day we announce the results of the qualifying tests for the american scholarship program
46:31welcome everyone
46:36if you will turn your attention to the main aisle you will see one of this year's top participants
46:40rider miller
46:41he is always impressive and we all predict him to be at the top when the results are announced
46:47i could get used to this
46:51this is just the beginning
46:53once rider's results are announced this will be our daily life
46:57today we are also honored to welcome a very special guest
47:00she is the founder of this amazing program and one of the sharpest minds of our time
47:05dr ivy wright
47:20an interesting development in recent weeks is that dr wright has both of her children
47:25her son rider and her daughter mia compete in the exams one week ago
47:32mea really this is why dei programs don't work what a joke is she gonna fill out her forms in
47:40crayon
47:42unbelievable is this some make-a-wish thing everyone is here for rider why do you insist on embarrassing yourself
47:51and our children
47:53wrong wrong everyone is here to see the new candidates who are selected in the american scholarship program
48:01i just hope your rider can keep up with all this pressure
48:05i think rider is going to be fine
48:07once the results confirm rider as the top candidate
48:12do not try to steal his spotlight with all of the i'm his mommy nonsense
48:16this is his day not yours
48:18if your intellect matched your overconfidence you might actually be dangerous
48:23i love how you never let facts or reality get in the way of your opinions
48:27it's actually quite fascinating
48:29ladies and gentlemen if everyone could please take their seats
48:32we will shortly be announcing the results of this year's competition
48:37should rider sit with us or up there with you
48:42what makes more sense so it is easiest for him to make his speech
48:51the results for rider miller
48:59in the math event
49:01five points
49:03in the literature event
49:06five points
49:08and five points in the languages event
49:14together with the remaining events
49:16rider has scored a total of 20 points
49:19rider would unfortunately be disqualified from the program
49:23that's impossible
49:24you must have the wrong name on the forms
49:28rider is a child prodigy
49:31ouch
49:32feels a little low
49:34even for rider
49:35you've been a distraction and likely the reason he couldn't focus
49:39and now the results from mia miller she has scored 150 points in the next event
49:43a perfect score
49:45150 points in literature and 150 points in languages
49:52that is a record which will never be broken
49:55i'm not sure her own mother would have scored that high
50:00dr. wright
50:01mia's results were off the charts
50:05mr. miller you must be so proud of your daughter
50:08sure rider didn't fare as well as anyone thought but
50:13i can't let this end like this
50:16you
50:18you have all been kept in the dark
50:21i can't believe it
50:22there have been things clearly kept from you
50:27mr. miller what exactly is it that you are trying to say
50:30is there a reason why rider scored so low
50:33rider miller the biological son of dr. ivy wright
50:36was so traumatized by his mother's infidelities and abandonment
50:39he was competing in these events under incredible duress
50:43she has taunted him in recent weeks
50:45parading around with her scandalous boyfriend
50:48and routinely abandoning him
50:50no you left me
50:53you cheated on me
50:55i did nothing wrong
50:56you never have taken any accountability for anything have you
51:01you even pretended to be someone else
51:04to trick me into marrying you
51:06my son deserves another chance
51:11she took everything from us
51:14rider and i were left with nothing
51:17he's just a child
51:18what kind of kid could survive that level of humiliation
51:21these are all lies
51:23is that right
51:26sophia
51:27or is it ivy
51:28are you even able to keep it straight
51:31you have convinced rider i am his enemy
51:34for years now
51:36you give me too much credit
51:39is there any child who doesn't want his mother
51:42tristan miller
51:44i thought i warned you about this already
51:48right on schedule
51:50this is the man who has destroyed our family
51:53and helped rider's mother to crush his future
51:55and what is your connection to the miller family
51:58how do you know dr right
52:00are you really her lover
52:02yes
52:03but this is all recent
52:05after ivy divorced her husband
52:07after we found him cheating on her with miss scarlet here
52:11liar
52:12we've all seen the video tristan
52:14your lies end today
52:16you did everything in your power to make me leave
52:19and every time i tried to protect our children from our lies
52:23you turned them against me
52:25you made my own child
52:27my son wish he could be raised by another woman
52:34rider
52:35how do you feel about all of this
52:37do you feel your mother abandoned you
52:39i don't like that woman
52:41i prefer miss prinin
52:44she's been more of a mother to me than anyone else in this world
52:47she's always been more like a mother than a tutor to me
52:50when my father would take me to academic camps
52:53she'd find a way to be there
52:54even when my own mother wasn't there
52:56she would even save my family money on these trips
53:00by sleeping in the same bed as my father
53:02so we didn't need a second room
53:05the boy is confused i did not sleep in the same bed as his father
53:10why would you say that
53:12my son is a genius
53:14but his road has not been easy
53:17he was raised by a mother who spins webs of lies
53:19and can't always tell fact from fiction
53:21as you can see
53:24her deceptive ways continue to haunt the poor boy
53:28she's jealous of her son
53:30she tried to hide who she was
53:32and now she's trying to hide who he can be
53:34this is a pattern
53:35nobody is buying any of this tristan
53:37good
53:39because i am not selling anything
53:40i am just stating facts
53:42in some parts of this world
53:44things like the truth and honesty still mean something
53:46i couldn't agree more
53:52isn't that mr baker
53:54writer's sponsor
53:55didn't he fund the kids training and examination charges
53:58i am glad you are here mr baker
54:00are you sure
54:01there have been some concerns raised about ethics and trust of this program sir
54:06really
54:08you are the one to talk about ethics
54:11i didn't catch it at first
54:13in fact i didn't catch it at all
54:15it was professors seaton myers and durden who brought it to my attention
54:19i don't understand
54:21while you are undoubtedly one of the least intelligent people in this room
54:24i highly suspect this is something you do actually understand
54:28do you remember why i agreed to sponsor your son
54:32it was because of his scores in the last three qualifying exams
54:35there were three qualifying tests in the last month
54:39that your son passed with flying colors
54:43before he could appear for this exam
54:45turns out you faked your son's grades in all the three exams
54:50and did a convincing job that even fooled me
54:53are you saying writer's test results were faked
54:55so this has all been a deceptive ploy
54:58i poured a lot of money into your son
55:01you had me convinced
55:03this young man was a path to a promising future for all of us
55:07mr baker this is all a misunderstanding
55:11this is the contract you signed
55:15i think you know where this is going
55:22what is it according to this contract
55:26if you were to breach its terms
55:28or in other words
55:29if you were to commit fraud
55:31you would owe me a compensation of 40 million dollars
55:34i don't have that kind of money
55:37you better find it
55:39as the alternative is much worse
55:41how did you let this happen
55:44me?
55:45you're the one who said nobody would ever find out
55:47that's the problem with trying to outsmart people smarter than you
55:51if either of you were smarter
55:52you'd have realized how dumb your plan was
55:54i hate you
55:55don't be angry mom
55:57i am not your mom
55:59get lost
56:01i hate you too
56:02i hate all of you
56:06if you don't give me an answer here mr miller

56:12and make this a criminal matter
