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. It was so freeing, so different.
00:48He saw me as a normal woman. I didn't have to speak about my brains or the family I come
00:53from.
00:53Are you sure? You 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. I am not sure I can ever have that if I am always living in
01:13the 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 life.
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.
01:42What'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!
02:03The kid? He bit his mom? Did you see that?
02:09I want to thank my dad and my mentor, Ms. Prennan.
02:13I have inherited my dad's incredible genes, and I am grateful for the guidance I got from the scarlet print.
02:24Everyone hungry?
02:31Ms. Prennan, you can join us too.
02:41Come on, Sophia, let's not be selfish.
02:44This is Ryder's day.
02:45Let him sit with his father and tutor to enjoy the moment.
02:48You two can eat the leftovers after we are done.
03:00This is a special day for Ryder.
03:03They are just caught up in the excitement.
03:06More!
03:08You've worked up quite an appetite.
03:10Let his sister do it.
03:12Her brother is a genius and will change all of our fortunes.
03:16And it would be better for Mia to learn all this at a young age.
03:20Yes, Grandma.
03:23Ryder!
03:25Why are you yelling at Ryder?
03:27Mia is the Kluds who dropped the bowl.
03:30This mess isn't going to clean itself.
03:33Ryder, I'm your mother.
03:35Who taught you to behave like this?
03:37It's a joke.
03:39Lighten up.
03:40Why are you always such a buzzkill?
03:42Poor Koi as 2-8-Pau-si-Qual-Q-un-Jossy-Simple.
03:46Sae-ves-viuli as Kwa-ji-Fas-Ryar.
03:49Vas-Ari as Pumi-lur-un-Clown.
03:51To fund a family, we don't have a genius.
03:56We don't have a genius.
03:57We don't have a enthusiasm.
04:25I had no idea you spoke French.
04:28They proved to respect him.
04:32Ryder, I am your mother.
04:34Do you really think it's okay to talk?
04:37Why does this thing talk so much?
04:39Can't it shut up?
04:40Come on.
04:41Ryder achieved something incredible today.
04:44Let him have his fun.
04:45Don't be so fragile.
04:47She's so annoying.
04:48If you are so determined to spoil Ryder's Day,
04:51then perhaps you should leave.
04:55Fine.
04:56We are leaving.
04:59Tristan, your wife is leaving you.
05:02Aren't you going to stop her?
05:03No need.
05:04They have nowhere to go.
05:07They'll be back.
05:12I gave up everything for a family,
05:14and this is what they gave me in return.
05:16How could they do this to me?
05:18How could they do this to Mia?
05:21Tristan, how did things change so quickly?
05:24You are not the same man I married.
05:26Mom, it's my fault.
05:28I ruined Ryder's special day.
05:33No, sweetheart.
05:34You aren't to blame for any of this.
05:36You were right.
05:37Your brother was being mean,
05:39and I should have done something about it.
05:52She's lost a lot of blood.
05:55She needs surgery immediately.
05:57Her blood type is AB negative,
05:58and without a donor,
05:59I fear the surgery will be too risky.
06:03Mommy?
06:04Am I going to die?
06:06No, sweetheart.
06:07Mommy's here.
06:09Nothing will happen to you.
06:16Ryder,
06:17you're here.
06:18Your sister needs you.
06:20You have the same AB negative blood.
06:21I am busy.
06:23Leave me alone.
06:25Ryder.
06:26Enough.
06:28These are more than games.
06:30These are to keep his mind sharp.
06:32Tristan,
06:33this is his sister's life.
06:35You overreact for everything.
06:37She got hurt because you were careless.
06:40Why not offer your own blood?
06:41My blood isn't a match.
06:44Why is everything always about you?
06:47She doesn't have a lot of time.
06:49She might not make it.
06:56What did you say?
06:57She's lost a lot of blood,
06:59and she's fallen into a coma.
07:00We need to find a donor.
07:02Within an hour,
07:02it's our only hope.
07:03Tristan,
07:04Ryder listens to you.
07:06Please,
07:07you have to help.
07:08All right.
07:09That's enough.
07:11After all,
07:12I am her father.
07:14Stop always trying to make me the bad guy.
07:16Your sister can't wait any longer.
07:18Go.
07:19Wait.
07:20Mia's in a coma
07:21because she's lost too much blood.
07:23Now you want me to lose mine too?
07:25What?
07:26That's not me.
07:29I'm your mom.
07:31I can't believe that you have sacrificed your daughter.
07:35Hold on.
07:37My grandson is a genius.
07:39I won't allow any Tom,
07:41Dick,
07:41Harry to get his blood.
07:42It has his DNA in it.
07:44This isn't for anyone.
07:45This is for his sister.
07:47His blood has nothing to do with his intellect.
07:49So you're a doctor now?
07:51You know this for a fact.
07:53You coddle that poor girl
07:55and are always trying to have her piggyback off Ryder's accomplishments.
07:58But this?
08:00I can't forgive this.
08:01Please.
08:02She'll die without his blood.
08:04She'll die without her.
08:24Ms. Prinn?
08:26Thank you for coming over.
08:27Ryder really likes you.
08:28i'd do anything for him you're so nice i wish you were my mom sometimes
08:49lucas do you want a break i can sit with mia no no the doctors told me you're responsible
08:56for tracking down a blood donor from mia turns out ab negative is super rare but it's something
09:03me and i have in common how can i ever repay you don't be like that i am always happy
09:10to help
09:10i heard what happened with tristan and rider how could they leave like that without even
09:15caring about mia you deserve more does he even care
09:25maybe he still cares deep down after all lucas i need to take mia home after this
09:32of course i'll drive you home
09:49what are you doing
09:56what were you doing aren't you ashamed do you want to sleep with him enough
10:09tristan why did you call me home if you were only going to insult me with this
10:14i called you because the dishes aren't going to clean by themselves and tomorrow we are
10:19throwing rider a party and we invited some prestigious guests including dr right who has
10:26apparently come out of her reclusive shell for this event it's important that we all play nice
10:32for rider's benefit and future if things go well who knows perhaps dr right may even consider
10:40taking our son on as her student since you are so busy planning rider's party by sleeping with her
10:45you might not have found the time to ask about your daughter mia we were able to find a donor
10:53she is waiting downstairs in the car to see her father i knew she'd be all right you're always
10:59overreacting what makes you think dr right would work with rider you don't even know dr right trust me
11:07i know dr right you do well i know her type believe me she'll want to work with rider but
11:14i am
11:15not sure how'd she feel about you on that we may agree i am not sure dr right would even
11:20know who i am
11:21at all you were so different when we met as soon as we had kids you ignored me and they
11:26become
11:26your focus and once i focused more on the kids you became jealous and so bitchy kid kid
11:35you only focused on rider that too after i proved he had the intellect to become a genius
11:42you always acted like mia was never born did you ever really love us
11:51fine
11:53if that's how it is then i want a divorce
11:56a divorce a divorce how will you live everything you have everything you are is because of me
12:02there would be no sophia miller if it weren't for me you're right you are the reason sophie miller
12:09exists so let's relieve you and the world from this burden take back the things you gave to give her
12:16life
12:19this cheap cardigan i know it's a knockoff and these pearls
12:25you bought your mother gold and gave your own wife plastic
12:31are you finished no but we are
12:45i'm leaving you we're done my feelings for you made me blind to who you really are

14:11i'll have the divorce papers drawn up tomorrow
14:16sophia's threats of divorce are going to completely steal focus from rider's party tomorrow
14:20perhaps there is another way to frame this the tragic devoted single father raising his genius child
14:27on his own maybe you'll become a bigger part of rider's story

17:14and our dear friend scarlet printing

17:42he will immediately engage in the process of his university entrance exams

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

40:26i overheard you talking to your father on the phone earlier
40:28is everything okay?
40:29he is getting old
40:30he wants me to take over the company
40:33i am just not sure where to start
40:34i've been focused on my family and children for so long
40:37this phone contains the numbers of venture capitalists strategists
40:40they will all be more than happy to guide you
40:42Lucas
40:44thank you
40:44your happiness will always be what is most important to me
40:47why have i rejected him all of these years?
40:50he's always been the one person who truly cared about me
40:52after mia goes to bed would you walk with me tonight?
40:56i'd love to get some fresh air and see the stars
40:58i'd like that too
41:05these aren't so bad are they?
41:07pretty cheap and fresh
41:10look
41:10is that ivy?
41:12let's go check it out
41:15well well
41:16out all alone celebrating yourself with candles and flowers?
41:19no you're not batshit crazy at all
41:21i knew it
41:23you love yourself so much you've decided to make it official
41:26and confess you are deeply in love with you and only you
41:31ivy
41:38i have found a way to love myself again
41:39and in doing so i've finally opened up to having others love me for who i really am
41:48you've got to be careful around men looking for sloppy seconds
41:50and women who do the same?
41:53you bitch!
41:54the ink isn't even dry on our divorce papers and you're already seeing someone else?
41:58you are such an ignorant hypocrite
42:03ivy
42:04i know these ecuadorian roses are your favorite
42:06i had them shipped in from paris
42:08that is so thoughtful
42:10i do like occasionally like to indulge in the finer things in life
42:17do you really think this whatever he is supposed to be can make you happy?
42:21i guess he'll have an easier time now that i've loosened you up for him
42:27nobody speaks to her like that
42:28ow! see i told you he was violent
42:32stop it! stop fighting!
42:34lives
42:41ahh! i'm bleeding
42:47ah! digga
42:58ah.. how is she?
43:00i think she is going to be okay
43:02but i'm very sorry we couldn't save her
43:04the baby. You killed our child! Scarlet, I'm heartbroken too. It was an accident. It doesn't
43:28matter if you did it on purpose or not. It's all your fault! Scarlet, the one who should
43:35really be blamed is Ivy. If she hadn't pushed me, would things have turned physical? Stop blaming
43:40her for everything. This is 100% on you. You are always running from responsibility.
43:46How did I not see you were a terrible father? How you've already abandoned your daughter and
43:50now our baby. The baby didn't even have a name. You weren't even in your second trimester.
43:54I am sad too, but we can make another one. And the child we need to focus on most is
43:58still Ryder. I swear you love that child more than you've loved any woman. I apologize
44:08if I've ever given anyone the impression otherwise. Ryder is your child with Ivy. I wanted one
44:13that was our own! So you've never considered Ryder your son at all? I have always loved that
44:21child like my own. But no matter what you do, he'll always be a reminder of her.
44:33Why do I feel like you didn't have running into Tristan and Scarlet on your bingo card
44:37when you were planning this night? I feel like you've always been there for me when I need
44:41you most. Ivy. I want to always be there for you when you need me most. You really went
44:49all out with the flowers tonight. Ivy, I want us to be together.
44:57I have two children with a nightmare of a father. I've been dismissive of my potential.
45:02I think you've always been exactly who you needed to be at the time.
45:06Nothing about what I've done, the choices I've made, the life I've created should appeal to you.
45:11Ivy, every ounce of your essence appeals to me.
45:14that wouldn't be fair to you. Hiding my feelings and not asserting myself earlier is what has been
45:19unfair to me and you. Lucas, I've been so focused on being a mother, being a wife.
45:25I've stopped focusing on what it also means to be me. I'm not sure I'm ready to start a new
45:29relationship. I wouldn't want to lose myself again. I wouldn't ever want any version of you
45:33that wasn't the most truthful and self-loving version of yourself. I'm not worthy of you right now.
45:39Right now, I'm in a place where I've needed you to save me countless times.
45:43I like being there for you.
45:45And for this to ever work, I need to know I can be there for you and my children too.
45:50Ivy, I've waited for this for a long time and I'd spend the rest of my days waiting if that's
45:54what
45:54it takes. I want us to be together, but when you're ready, and never sooner nor a minute later.
46:03You lost our house. You lost our baby. And now you can't even find the remote control.
46:08Kristen, are you here just to make my life even harder?
46:11I've given up everything for you. In fact, your pregnancy fast-tracked my divorce to Ivy.
46:15You were going to leave her anyway. Why do you keep bringing her up? Do you want her back? Is
46:20that it?
46:22No! No! No!
46:26Shut up, both of you. Stop fighting.
46:30All right. We'll stop fighting.
46:33As you can see, we are all willing to invest everything we have in you, my son.
46:37You are our future. You are the future for all of us.
46:42Ryder, sweetheart, we are all counting on you.
46:44This upcoming American Scholarship Program is a chance to show that ungrateful mother of yours
46:48how great you truly are.
46:50Do well there and we will live a life that none of us have even imagined.
46:59Today is the day we announce the results of the qualifying tests for the American Scholarship Program.
47:07Welcome, everyone.
47:12If you will turn your attention to the main aisle, you will see one of this year's top participants, Ryder
47:17Miller.
47:18He is always impressive and we all predict him to be at the top when the results are announced.
47:24I could get used to this.
47:28This is just the beginning.
47:30Once Ryder's results are announced, this will be our daily life.
47:34Today, we are also honored to welcome a very special guest.
47:38She is the founder of this amazing program and one of the sharpest minds of our time, Dr. Ivy Wright.
47:57An interesting development in recent weeks is that Dr. Wright has both of her children, her son Ryder and her
48:04daughter Mia, compete in the exams one week ago.
48:07So, Mia?
48:09Mia?
48:10Really?
48:11This is why DEI programs don't work.
48:14What a joke.
48:15Is she going to fill out her forms in crayon?
48:18Unbelievable.
48:20Is this some make-a-wish thing?
48:22Everyone is here for Ryder.
48:25Why do you insist on embarrassing yourself and our children?
48:30Wrong.
48:32Everyone is here to see the new candidates who are selected in the American Scholarship Program.
48:39I just hope your Ryder can keep up with all this pressure.
48:42I think Ryder is going to be fine.
48:45Once the results confirm Ryder as the top candidate,
48:49do not try to steal his spotlight with all of the I'm-his-mommy nonsense.
48:54This is his day, not yours.
48:56If your intellect matched your overconfidence, you might actually be dangerous.
49:01I love how you never let facts or reality get in the way of your opinions.
49:05It's actually quite fascinating.
49:07Ladies and gentlemen, if everyone could please take their seats.
49:10We will shortly be announcing the results of this year's competition.
49:15Should Ryder sit with us or up there with you?
49:19What makes more sense so it is easiest for him to make his speech?
49:27The results for Ryder Miller
49:35In the math event, five points.
49:40In the literature event, five points.
49:44And five points in the languages event.
49:50Together with the remaining events, Ryder has scored a total of 20 points.
49:55Ryder would unfortunately be disqualified from the program.
49:59That's impossible!
50:01You must have the wrong name on the forms.
50:05Ryder is a child prodigy!
50:07Ouch!
50:08Feels a little low.
50:10Even for Ryder.
50:12You've been a distraction and likely the reason he couldn't focus.
50:15And now the results for Mia Miller, she has scored 150 points in the max event.
50:19A perfect score.
50:21150 points in literature and 150 points in languages.
50:29That is a record which will never be broken.
50:31I'm not sure her own mother would have scored that high.
50:37Dr. Wright!
50:38Mia's results were off the charts.
50:41Mr. Miller, you must be so proud of your daughter.
50:45Sure, Ryder didn't fare as well as anyone thought, but...
50:50I can't let this end like this.
50:53You...
50:54You have all been kept in the dark!
50:58I can't believe it.
50:59There have been things clearly kept from you!
51:05Mr. Miller, what exactly is it that you are trying to say?
51:08Is there a reason why Ryder scored so low?
51:11Ryder Miller, the biological son of Dr. Ivy Wright, was so traumatized by his mother's infidelities and abandonment, he was
51:18competing in these events under incredible duress.
51:21She has taunted him in recent weeks, parading around with her scandalous boyfriend and routinely abandoning him.
51:28No, you left me.
51:31You cheated on me.
51:33You cheated on me.
51:33I did nothing wrong.
51:34You never have taken any accountability for anything, have you?
51:39You even pretended to be someone else.
51:42To trick me?
51:43Into marrying you?
51:44My son...
51:46Deserves another chance.
51:48She took everything from us.
51:52Ryder and I were left with nothing.
51:55He's just a child.
51:57What kind of kid could survive that level of humiliation?
52:00These are all lies!
52:01Is that right?
52:04Sophia?
52:05Or is it Ivy?
52:07Are you even able to keep it straight?
52:09You have convinced Ryder I am his enemy for years now.
52:14You give me too much credit.
52:17Is there any child who doesn't want his mother?
52:20Tristan Miller.
52:22I thought I warned you about this already.
52:27Right on schedule.
52:29This is the man who has destroyed our family and helped Ryder's mother to crush his future.
52:34And what is your connection to the Miller family?
52:37How do you know Dr. Wright?
52:39Are you really her lover?
52:41Yes.
52:42But this is all recent.
52:44After Ivy divorced her husband, after we found him cheating on her with Miss Scarlet here.
52:50Liar!
52:51We've all seen the video, Tristan.
52:53Your lies end today.
52:56You did everything in your power to make me leave.
52:59And every time I tried to protect our children from our lies, you turned them against me.
53:04You made my own child.
53:07My son wished he could be raised by another woman.
53:13Ryder?
53:14How do you feel about all of this?
53:16Do you feel your mother abandoned you?
53:19I don't like that woman.
53:21I prefer Miss Prinnan.
53:23She's been more of a mother to me than anyone else in this world.
53:27She's always been more like a mother than a tutor to me.
53:29When my father would take me to academic camps, she'd find a way to be there.
53:34Even when my own mother wasn't there.
53:36She would even save my family money on these trips.
53:40By sleeping in the same bed as my father.
53:42So we didn't need a second room.
53:46The boy is confused.
53:47I did not sleep in the same bed as his father.
53:50Why would you say that?
53:53My son is a genius.
53:55But his road has not been easy.
53:57He was raised by a mother who spins webs of lies and can't always tell fact from fiction.
54:02As you can see, her deceptive ways continue to haunt the poor boy.
54:07She's jealous of her son.
54:10She tried to hide who she was and now she's trying to hide who he can be.
54:14This is a pattern.
54:16Nobody is buying any of this, Tristan.
54:18Good.
54:19Because I am not selling anything.
54:21I am just stating facts.
54:23In some parts of this world, things like the truth and honesty still mean something.
54:26I couldn't agree more.
54:33Isn't that Mr. Baker?
54:35Ryder's sponsor?
54:36Didn't he fund the kids' training and examination charges?
54:39I am glad you are here, Mr. Baker.
54:41Are you sure?
54:43There have been some concerns raised about ethics and trust of this program, sir.
54:47Really?
54:48You are the one to talk about ethics?
54:52I didn't catch it at first.
54:54In fact, I didn't catch it at all.
54:56It was Professors Seton, Myers, and Durden who brought it to my attention.
55:01I don't understand.
55:02While you are undoubtedly one of the least intelligent people in this room,
55:06I highly suspect this is something you do actually understand.
55:09Do you remember why I agreed to sponsor your son?
55:13It was because of his scores in the last three qualifying exams.
55:16There were three qualifying tests in the last month
55:20that your son passed with flying colors
55:24before he could appear for this exam.
55:26Turns out you faked your son's grades in all the three exams.
55:31And did a convincing job that even fooled me.
55:34Are you saying Ryder's test results were faked?
55:37So this has all been a deceptive ploy.
55:39I poured a lot of money into your son.
55:42You had me convinced.
55:44This young man was a path to a promising future for all of us.
55:49Mr. Baker, this is all a misunderstanding.
55:52This is the contract you signed.
55:56I think you know where this is going.
56:04What is it?
56:06According to this contract,
56:08if you were to breach its terms,
56:11or in other words,
56:12if you were to commit fraud,
56:14you would owe me a compensation of $40 million.
56:18I don't have that kind of money.
56:20You better find it,
56:21as the alternative is much worse.
56:24How did you let this happen?
56:26Me?
56:27You're the one who said nobody would ever find out.
56:30That's the problem with trying to outsmart people smarter than you.
56:33If either of you were smarter,
56:35you'd have realized how dumb your plan was.
56:37I hate you.
56:38Don't be angry, Mom.
56:40I am not your mom.
56:43Get lost.
56:44I hate you too.
56:45I hate all of you.
56:49If you don't give me an answer here, Mr. Miller,
56:52I am afraid I will have to call the authorities
56:55and make this a criminal matter.
57:00Ivy.
57:02Please.
57:04For the boy.
57:05This isn't Ryder's debt or fault.
57:08This is on you.
57:09What you have done has violated not only our vows,
57:13but your responsibility to your children.
57:16And quite simply, the law.
57:20I am so, so sorry.
57:26You are going to jail for a long time, Tristan.
57:30And without you,
57:31Ryder will go to a foster home.
57:34I hope this is the last time I am ever seeing you.
57:38Goodbye forever to both of you.
57:49The first prize in today's piano competition goes to Mia Wright.
57:55It's hard to believe such a big, powerful, and beautiful sound came from the small and delicate little body.
58:02You know her mother is Dr. Ivy Wright, yes?
58:06I want to invite my mom on to the stage.
58:09This honor, I want to give it to her.
58:18Thank you, my sweetheart.
58:19I love you, mommy.
58:22And I love you, sweetie.
58:24I am so proud of you.
58:26Look at the screen.
58:34I've waited all these years, and I agree with Mia.
58:38You do take good care of all of us.
58:40Ivy,
58:43will you marry me?
58:44Say yes!
58:46Say yes!
58:47Say yes!
58:50What do you think, honey?
59:09That's what I think.
59:15I will.
59:21I will.
59:22I will.
