00:00:03Eight years. It's been eight long years since I last saw my little Ashley.
00:00:10Today's the day I finally get to see my daughter get married.
00:00:15Happy birthday, sweetheart.
00:00:18Thanks, Mom. Your presents are always my favorite.
00:00:22Anyway, today is Ashley's big day and Mom is here with your favorite gifts.
00:00:34Whoa! Ladies, stop! Stop!
00:00:36You don't want to try panhandling here and no loitering neither.
00:00:40Do yourself a favor. This is a high-end joint and you clearly don't belong here.
00:00:45So get out before I drag you out.
00:00:49Wait, stop. Hold on a second.
00:00:52Miss Anderson.
00:00:55Ashley.
00:01:00Mom. Can we talk over there?
00:01:07What are you doing here? I told you not to come.
00:01:10Well, I...
00:01:12Every mother wants to see their little girl walk down the aisle.
00:01:16I brought you some of your favorites from home.
00:01:20Strawberry jam.
00:01:23Turkey jerky.
00:01:26And...
00:01:26I needed you the scarf.
00:01:31Are you serious right now? What am I supposed to do with all of these?
00:01:34Do you have any idea who I'm marrying?
00:01:36Oh, my God. It smells like a barn.
00:01:42Ashley.
00:01:43I can see you don't want me here.
00:01:46But can I just watch?
00:01:48No, Mom.
00:01:50I told everyone that you were traveling abroad.
00:01:52And you just couldn't make it.
00:01:54I mean, now you just show up out of the blue.
00:01:56How am I even gonna explain that?
00:02:00I'm sorry.
00:02:01I didn't know.
00:02:04I thought it would be a nice surprise.
00:02:07Mom.
00:02:08You work too hard.
00:02:10When I grow up,
00:02:11I will take you to the fanciest restaurant
00:02:13and go on a beach vacation.
00:02:16Thank you, sweetheart.
00:02:19I thought you would be happy to see me.
00:02:22Ashley.
00:02:27Who's this?
00:02:30Uh...
00:02:32Uh...
00:02:33This...
00:02:33This is my, uh...
00:02:35My Aunt Nancy.
00:02:36She just...
00:02:37dropped in.
00:02:38Got it. Welcome.
00:02:40Why don't you just invite your aunt in?
00:02:42Okay, yeah, yeah, of course.
00:02:46Okay.
00:02:47Fine.
00:02:48But don't embarrass me.
00:02:50Remember...
00:02:51Your Aunt Nancy...
00:03:05It's magnificent.
00:03:07My little girl is marrying into a whole other world.
00:03:12I hear she has no family attending the wedding.
00:03:15That's so sus.
00:03:16They say she comes from poor's.
00:03:18She's probably some country hick who somehow clued her way into the Anderson family.
00:03:27Well...
00:03:28What are you talking about?
00:03:30Who else?
00:03:31The bride, of course.
00:03:35You can tell by her posture alone that she comes from broke trash.
00:03:39But she acts like she's a goddamn princess.
00:03:41Yeah.
00:03:42Even her mother didn't show up.
00:03:44Either...
00:03:45Ashley...
00:03:46is ashamed.
00:03:47Or Mom abandoned her.
00:03:49Either way...
00:03:50Is alone...
00:03:52Plus...
00:03:52Shit.
00:03:53Shit.
00:03:54None of what you're saying is true.
00:03:58Ashley is kind and thoughtful.
00:04:00And she may have a humble background, but she's rich in character.
00:04:06Who are you, anyway?
00:04:07You know, usually the janitors don't show up until after the wedding.
00:04:13Look at her clothes.
00:04:15My socks cost more than half a clothes set.
00:04:20Wait, wait.
00:04:21Don't tell me she's related to the bride.
00:04:24That would be...
00:04:25Yikes.
00:04:26As a matter of fact...
00:04:28Yes, I'm here for Ashley.
00:04:31Ha!
00:04:31I knew it.
00:04:35I almost feel sorry for Ashley.
00:04:37She worked so hard to hide people like you from us.
00:04:44Little princess must be mortified.
00:04:46You're here.
00:04:50Mortified?
00:04:52What am I doing to embarrass her?
00:04:55And what would you know about my bank account?
00:04:58Oh my god, lady.
00:04:59Do I really have to spell it out for you?
00:05:01That sad little outfit of yours wouldn't even hit 50 bucks.
00:05:05What the hell is going on in here?!
00:05:09You!
00:05:10What the hell is going on in here?!
00:05:14You!
00:05:15You just standing there.
00:05:17Get back to work.
00:05:18Setting tables or whatever it is that you people do.
00:05:22I'm having a word with a manager about hiring better staff.
00:05:26Look at you.
00:05:27Filthy.
00:05:28Ma'am, I'm not part of the staff.
00:05:31Please, you don't expect me to believe that you're on my list.
00:05:34Lucy, actually, yes.
00:05:36She's here to support Miss Ashley, apparently.
00:05:39I'm with you, Lucy.
00:05:40It doesn't look like she belongs here.
00:05:45Well, someone's obviously mistaken.
00:05:48Because I went through the guest list myself and Ashley never mentioned somebody like her.
00:05:54Well, maybe you missed it.
00:05:57I don't think so.
00:05:59Who are you really?
00:06:01I think you should leave before I call security.
00:06:06I'm not leaving.
00:06:08I'm here to see Ashley.
00:06:10But Ashley didn't put you on the list, did she?
00:06:15Or are you here hoping for a handout?
00:06:18I mean, these gifts of the bride and groom, they're not for guests.
00:06:26All I wanted was to be here for Ashley.
00:06:29Fine.
00:06:30If you want to continue with this madness, then you've just pulled this off yourself, haven't you?
00:06:42Lucy, maybe just let it go.
00:06:44It's your son's big day.
00:06:45You shouldn't be getting your hands dirty.
00:06:47No way.
00:06:49That lady deserved it.
00:06:50Somebody had to teach her a lesson.
00:06:52I'm not here to cause trouble.
00:06:55I'm just here for the ceremony and to bring some gifts for the bride.
00:07:01Really?
00:07:03Let's see what delightful little treasures that you've dragged in here.
00:07:11Incredible.
00:07:14Preserves.
00:07:21Dried meat.
00:07:24Oh, and a scarf that smells like the bottom of a stable.
00:07:38Shall I show you what we do with the trash?
00:07:43No!
00:07:45What are you doing?
00:07:47Stop!
00:07:48Somebody help me!
00:07:49Please!
00:07:51I told you.
00:07:53But I can do all the fuck I love.
00:07:59I'm Ashley.
00:08:02Mother!
00:08:09Ashley's mother is vacationing in Switzerland.
00:08:13Although my daughter-in-law's family may not be at our level, they are very respectable.
00:08:20And what the hell are you?
00:08:23Did she really say that?
00:08:25Of course.
00:08:26Did you really think you could come waltzing in here and ruin my son's wedding?
00:08:34You're not the first freeloading fraud that I've encountered.
00:08:40Don't worry everyone.
00:08:42This old bag lady, she won't be troubling us much longer.
00:08:47Yeah, kick her ass out.
00:08:48I'm sick of help from the little face.
00:09:01Why are you crazy? Are you gonna murder me in public?
00:09:06Why not? Who'd even notice if you were gone?
00:09:16Mother?
00:09:20Mother?
00:09:25Mother?
00:09:27Ashley, do you know this woman?
00:09:30So why wasn't she on the guest list?
00:09:33That's my...
00:09:34A distant relative.
00:09:37Aunt Nancy.
00:09:39She dropped by last minute.
00:09:41Yes, we met her at the entrance.
00:09:44I'm...
00:09:46I'm her Aunt Nancy.
00:09:50Your mother's in Switzerland, that's right, isn't it?
00:09:54Yes, of course.
00:09:56Lying's not going to get you very far in my world.
00:09:59Your niece, my daughter-in-law, isn't going to follow your tall tales.
00:10:08Okay, Auntie?
00:10:21I...
00:10:21I never wanted any of this. I just wanted... to see Ashley happy.
00:10:28Happy? With you here?
00:10:33Well...
00:10:38Maybe this will cheer everybody up.
00:10:43You're not going to be a girl.
00:10:45I'm sorry.
00:10:54You're not going to get married.
00:11:01I'm sorry.
00:11:02You're not going to be a girl.
00:11:03I'm sorry.
00:11:03I'm sorry.
00:11:07She's been a girl.
00:11:11I'm sorry.
00:11:11I'm sorry.
00:11:11I'm sorry.
00:11:11Defending this marmalade woman.
00:11:17You know, I call you my daughter-in-law,
00:11:20but it's not official yet.
00:11:23Do you still want to marry my son?
00:11:25Yes, of course, Mother.
00:11:28Good.
00:11:29Then I'll give you one more chance.
00:11:31Sure, Mother. I'll upper leave now.
00:11:34Nancy, I'm sorry, but you have to...
00:11:37Oh, no, no, no, dear.
00:11:39That's not enough.
00:11:41Go over and slap her in her ugly peasant face.
00:11:47It's that, or you can forget about joining our family.
00:11:51Come on, Ashley. Everything's ready.
00:11:53Stop wasting time.
00:11:54Give her a quick slap and let's move on.
00:11:57Ashley.
00:12:00Look at me.
00:12:03What has happened to you?
00:12:05Look.
00:12:08Look at who I am.
00:12:10Shut up. That's enough.
00:12:13I know who you are.
00:12:16Sorry, Mom.
00:12:17This is my future.
00:12:19You wanted me to have everything.
00:12:22So, you just have to forgive me.
00:12:46I can't believe you'd hit me.
00:12:51I can't believe you'd hit me.
00:12:53I knew you're her what.
00:12:56You're just some hillbilly distant relative from the middle of nowhere.
00:13:02Just look at you.
00:13:03That outfit.
00:13:05Standing amongst your betters.
00:13:08If you're not ashamed, we are on your behalf.
00:13:11Amen to that, Mrs. Anderson.
00:13:14You know, if the press catches on to this, it will be all over the feeds tomorrow.
00:13:18A total tabloid scandal.
00:13:21Ashley.
00:13:23How could you treat me like this after all these years?
00:13:26It's so pathetic.
00:13:29She's still acting like she matters.
00:13:37Say something.
00:13:40Tell them.
00:13:42Tell them who I am.
00:13:46Mom, I...
00:13:48Yes, Ashley.
00:13:49Yes, I'm here.
00:13:59I'm sorry, Mom.
00:14:01I...
00:14:01I can't admit it.
00:14:05I'm getting weary with this charade.
00:14:08Is there going to be a wedding or not?
00:14:10Or shall we just cool this whole thing off?
00:14:13Ashley, come on.
00:14:15This is our big day.
00:14:16Are you siding with my mother or this...
00:14:18This vagabond?
00:14:19Do you even want to marry me?
00:14:22Of course.
00:14:24I...
00:14:24I didn't mean that at all.
00:14:29Please, just stop.
00:14:32Just tell them you were wrong.
00:14:34And leave quietly.
00:14:36For me.
00:14:38But what...
00:14:39What did I do wrong?
00:14:41I...
00:14:41I just came to see you get married.
00:14:45She's a persistent little bumpkin.
00:14:47I'll give her that.
00:14:48I guess you have to be persistent to survive out in the wilderness.
00:14:53Okay.
00:14:53Enough.
00:14:54Just go.
00:14:56I don't want you here.
00:14:58Leave now.
00:15:01I'm sorry.
00:15:04I'm sorry.
00:15:05I'm just a poor woman from the countryside.
00:15:09I shouldn't have called.
00:15:13I don't know.
00:15:14Not bad.
00:15:14Well, since you came all this way, all by uninvited, let me offer you some dessert.
00:15:28I bet you've never seen anything quite this exquisite in your whole miserable life.
00:15:35Bon Appetit!
00:16:12Oh, another pear tainted.
00:16:23All right, now get out before you taint this wedding any further.
00:16:31All right, I'll go.
00:16:36Congratulations, Ashley. I hope you have a happy marriage.
00:16:42Of course she'll be happy. She's marrying my son. How could she not?
00:16:49And don't forget your gifts.
00:16:52Yeah, I don't need them.
00:17:27Ashley, I only wanted to see you happy. I still hope you will be.
00:17:49Miss Brooks, our client is waiting up to you.
00:18:12Ma? It really is you? It's me! Lauren!
00:18:24Lauren? Is it really you?
00:18:28Ma was always so kind to me. I mean, she adopted me and raised me as her own.
00:18:34Now you're both my precious girls.
00:18:38Then in college, my birth parents reached out after the hurricane.
00:18:42Everything was so confusing and I was so lost.
00:18:46Now I've got all this money and a new life, but God, I still miss Ma so much.
00:18:51I searched for you for years. I didn't know if you survived the hurricane.
00:19:00What happened?
00:19:02Mom, I reconnected with my birth parents.
00:19:10So much has happened.
00:19:12I thought you'd all forgotten about me.
00:19:17Never! Never!
00:19:25Mom.
00:19:27Let's go, Mom.
00:19:42Oh, Lauren. I can't go inside. I don't belong here. I should go.
00:19:48Mom! What are you saying? You're family. My home is your home.
00:19:55Lauren! Who's this?
00:20:01This is my adopted mother. The woman who raised me.
00:20:07Mom. This is William. He is my-
00:20:10Another mother.
00:20:11Lauren, this is a lot to drop on somebody. How am I supposed to process this?
00:20:16Lauren, what other secrets are you hiding? What else is there?
00:20:20I'm sorry, Lauren. I should go. I'll only be on the way here.
00:20:26No! No, please. Stay.
00:20:29Lauren, I don't want to come between you and your boyfriend.
00:20:33Ma, you are not just some outsider.
00:20:36Okay?
00:20:37Forget him. Let's just go inside.
00:20:42Babe, I wish you told me your mother was coming in advance.
00:20:45Could have gotten a nicer gift.
00:20:47Nancy, I'm William. I'm Lauren's fiance.
00:20:50Please excuse my behavior from earlier.
00:20:52Sometimes I can get a little bit anxious, but no excuse, okay?
00:20:56Come inside. Take your shoes off. Let's get comfortable.
00:20:58Hopefully you can accept this gift from me as well.
00:21:05Thank you, William. Did you say Lauren's fiance?
00:21:13Yes, Mom. I'm doing well.
00:21:16You don't have to worry about me anymore.
00:21:19No, that's more like it.
00:21:23Come on. Let's go inside.
00:21:26And chill.
00:21:30What a disaster of a wedding you've pulled off.
00:21:34Embarrassing.
00:21:36Chaotic.
00:21:37You're pulling up on your own and you bring in this distant aunt to humiliate me.
00:21:43Mother, I'm sorry. I...
00:21:45Sorry doesn't cut it.
00:21:47You barely earn anything and you can't even afford a goddamn housekeeper.
00:21:52I could have asked my witness to help her around the house.
00:21:56She'll do it for real cheap and she'll do whatever you want.
00:22:00Right?
00:22:00But if she doesn't make this place sparkle, she will not get a penny.
00:22:17My shoes are dirty. My socks have holes in them. I should... I should just stay here.
00:22:32Hey, don't worry about it. This floor, it was made for you to walk on.
00:22:41Mom, you've worked your whole life. You gave me everything. You shouldn't have to feel like a stranger in your
00:22:48own daughter's home.
00:23:02Mom, you don't need to be nervous. This is your home now. You can retire. Enjoy life.
00:23:12Exactly.
00:23:13Thank you. I never thought I'd be able to quit working or much less live like this.
00:23:21It's all a little overwhelming to be honest.
00:23:24By the way, Mom, what brought you to the city?
00:23:26I came for Ashley's wedding.
00:23:28Oh my God, really? Ashley married? That's Mom's biological daughter. We grew up together.
00:23:36I remember you said you had a sister, but you didn't really say much about her.
00:23:40We haven't been in touch in forever. We lost contact after college.
00:23:45Who did she marry?
00:23:47Steven Anderson.
00:23:49Oh, the Andersons. I like them. They have a company with great growing potential. Good for Ashley.
00:23:57Yeah. You seem like a good match.
00:24:10Hello? Hey Mom, it's me.
00:24:13Ashley, about earlier. Yeah, forget it.
00:24:17Hey, can you come to my house tomorrow?
00:24:20Don't get the wrong idea. We're just really busy with the baby and we need an extra hand.
00:24:24I assume you're not busy, right?
00:24:25Yes. Yeah, no problem. I'm glad I can help.
00:24:30I can see my grandchild, right? Willow?
00:24:34Yeah, sure. But just so you know, we can't pay you a lot. My finances are really tied up right
00:24:40now.
00:24:40I don't need money. Seeing you and my grandchild is more than enough.
00:24:46This means the world to me.
00:24:48Cool. I'll text you the address.
00:24:54Okay, Mom. It's done. She has to start work tomorrow.
00:24:58Well, she better do a good job or she'll answer to me.
00:25:06Lauren, I think I have to leave. Ashley needs me.
00:25:11Oh. Is she okay?
00:25:12Well, yes. I'm busy, you know. And I'm gonna go help out over there.
00:25:20Okay. I understand.
00:25:24Please come back soon.
00:25:28I'll send Ashley a gift. Something to help her with her career.
00:25:32We may not be close anymore, but we're still sisters and I want you both to have the best life
00:25:38possible.
00:25:39Thank you, Lauren.
00:25:51Ashley.
00:25:52Ashley, can you not do one thing right for a change?
00:25:56Ashley, Mother's right.
00:25:58This wedding costs a fortune.
00:26:00I called it Nancy. She will cook, clean, whatever. It'll save us a lot of time and energy.
00:26:07A bargain bin relative. Is that the single thing that you can bring to this marriage?
00:26:14Sad.
00:26:16Sorry.
00:26:20Hello?
00:26:21The Brooks Group wants to partner with me?
00:26:26I'd give a $5 million commission?
00:26:29What?
00:26:32Mom!
00:26:33Stephen!
00:26:35The Brooks Group, they want to work with me and I'd give $5 million!
00:26:39It's a miracle!
00:26:41Well...
00:26:44Well, well, Ashley.
00:26:46I always knew you were a good girl, deep down.
00:26:52The Brooks Group, they are the biggest corporation in the city.
00:26:57And this is going to triple our business value.
00:27:02Ashley, baby, I knew you could do it.
00:27:05How in the world did you land a deal with the Brooks Group?
00:27:10Honestly, I don't know.
00:27:12They said there's going to be a banquet next week and we're going to sign the contract there.
00:27:16Oh!
00:27:17I am so proud of you, darling!
00:27:22Oh, Aunt Nancy.
00:27:24I'm coming!
00:27:29Hey, so...
00:27:30Remember, you're my Aunt Nancy.
00:27:32If you want to stay here, don't forget that. Got it?
00:27:35Shh!
00:27:45Stop right there!
00:27:47Look at your shoes.
00:27:49Covered in mud.
00:27:51You dare to walk in like that?
00:27:58Sorry.
00:28:00So sorry.
00:28:01Now.
00:28:03Take off your shoes.
00:28:05Kneel down.
00:28:08And clean every inch that you step.
00:28:13Then you can enter.
00:28:19Mom's right, Aunt Nancy.
00:28:20Just hurry up and clean the floor.
00:28:44That's much more like it.
00:28:53That's much more like it.
00:28:56There's my itty bitty baby.
00:29:00I'll go prepare the formula.
00:29:24I'll go prepare the formula.
00:29:32That must be my granddaughter.
00:29:36Oh, sweet child, I'd stay here forever just for her.
00:29:47Hello, Willow.
00:29:49Don't touch my granddaughter.
00:29:52She's my granddaughter too.
00:29:58Ashley insists you know how to cook.
00:30:02We'll see about that.
00:30:04You know, we keep a very strict inventory around here.
00:30:08What is that?
00:30:10Supposed to mean you.
00:30:11You think I'd steal something?
00:30:13Of course.
00:30:15It's in your nature.
00:30:17I almost don't blame you.
00:30:19But if anything goes missing,
00:30:23I will blame you.
00:30:30If just one
00:30:34is unaccounted for,
00:30:38you will regret it.
00:30:56I don't understand.
00:30:59How many times do I need to explain it to you, dullard?
00:31:05Look at you.
00:31:06Dressed like a beggar.
00:31:09Don't eat somewhere out of my sight.
00:31:11But what is etiquette to sit here?
00:31:15She is a professional nanny.
00:31:18An entirely other breed.
00:31:20We pay top dollar.
00:31:22To have her take care of our children.
00:31:24Do you think you're in the same league?
00:31:25I just...
00:31:26Aunt Nancy, just go eat in the kitchen.
00:31:28I see.
00:31:43I see.
00:31:45I see.
00:31:45I see.
00:31:51I see.
00:31:53I see.
00:31:54I see.
00:31:55Ashley?
00:31:56This is...
00:31:57This is a toilet.
00:31:59Is that a dog bowl?
00:32:00Sorry.
00:32:01Yeah, there's another guest room.
00:32:02You'll just have to make do.
00:32:03We used to have a puppy in here, but we got rid of it.
00:32:06Mom hated the smell that it shed too much.
00:32:09Really?
00:32:10It make me sleep in a toilet room.
00:32:13Curled it next to it.
00:32:16Toilet bowl?
00:32:18Look, there's really no other room, okay?
00:32:20I mean, if you want to clear more space,
00:32:22you can get rid of the trash.
00:32:24There's some old towels.
00:32:25You can lay those out.
00:32:26There's even water.
00:32:27A dog could survive in here.
00:32:28I don't know what else you need.
00:32:32Ashley, bring me some grapes.
00:32:34Now!
00:32:35Coming, Mother!
00:32:39Oh, and don't forget to close the door.
00:32:41Mom hates the smell.
00:32:46Ashley, what happened to you?
00:32:49How can you do this to me?
00:32:58What are you talking about, Billy?
00:33:02You can't break up with me!
00:33:05Well...
00:33:06I don't consent!
00:33:10Loser!
00:33:17Drug you, you piece of shit!
00:33:21What's happening?
00:33:22I heard Willow crying.
00:33:23She sounds scared.
00:33:25It's nothing!
00:33:27What's that?
00:33:31Sleeping pills!
00:33:33Are you drugging Willow?
00:33:34She's just a baby!
00:33:36Give a crap!
00:33:38No!
00:33:38I wasn't doing anything!
00:33:39You stupid bitch!
00:33:49What's going on in here?
00:33:52Ma'am, she was trying to give sleeping pills to Willow!
00:33:56I didn't, I swear!
00:33:58I walked in and...
00:34:01You trying to hurt my grandchild?
00:34:04What's going on in here?
00:34:07Ashley, your aunt has tried to poison Willow!
00:34:10She's giving sleeping pills to her baby!
00:34:14I didn't!
00:34:15I swear, please listen to me!
00:34:18I...
00:34:21I didn't...
00:34:23It was her!
00:34:25I was trying to protect Willow!
00:34:27Mr. and Mrs. Anderson!
00:34:30You know my credentials!
00:34:31Why would I do this?
00:34:34You disgusting creature!
00:34:36I scold you a few times!
00:34:39Did you take it out of my grandchild?
00:34:42No!
00:34:42No!
00:34:46Mother!
00:34:47Her arm is bruised!
00:34:49My poor Willow!
00:34:51How could somebody do something like this to you?
00:34:54Call the police!
00:34:55Now!
00:34:57This lady must have done it while I was in the kitchen!
00:35:00That's why Willow started crying!
00:35:02I came in here because I heard her crying!
00:35:05You have to believe me!
00:35:07You liar!
00:35:08I'll strip you down myself and find the evidence!
00:35:11And then I'll hand you over to the police personally!
00:35:16I didn't do it!
00:35:18Leave me alone!
00:35:20You just pushed me!
00:35:23You dare lay a finger on me!
00:35:26Unlike a baby!
00:35:28I can fight back you filthy cunt!
00:35:33Actually, you know I can never do something like this even!
00:35:39Maybe we should just...
00:35:40Just what?
00:35:41She's fucking trying to murder our child!
00:35:43Are you seriously sliding with her right now?
00:35:45No, of course not!
00:35:47Aunt Nancy?
00:35:49Just tell the truth!
00:35:50Was it you?
00:35:54Ashley...
00:35:55You don't believe me either!
00:35:58How could I do something like this?
00:36:01I'm Lewis Graves!
00:36:03Shut up!
00:36:04You hurt her!
00:36:06Shut up!
00:36:08Now take all your clothes off!
00:36:15Fine!
00:36:18I'll do it myself!
00:36:25I'll do it myself!
00:36:43I'll do it myself!
00:36:45I'm happy now!
00:36:47I'm happy now!
00:36:47Can I stop?
00:36:48No!
00:36:50Take everything off!
00:36:51Do you need some help?
00:36:52No!
00:36:54No!
00:36:56No!
00:36:58No!
00:37:00I would never hurt a child!
00:37:04It's a real!
00:37:05Aunt Nancy, if you didn't do it...
00:37:07Just prove it already!
00:37:08Just take your clothes off!
00:37:09What?
00:37:12You'd have me strip completely...
00:37:18Your own!
00:37:22Okay, I'll do it!
00:37:26Oh, do it, Ashley.
00:37:40Now, turn around.
00:37:46Definitely not my dog.
00:37:50Now do you believe me?
00:37:52This proves nothing, although it is rather amusing.
00:37:58Now, admit it.
00:38:00Did you abuse Willow?
00:38:02I don't know.
00:38:04Mother, maybe she really didn't do anything.
00:38:07Ashley, why do you even defend her? She hurt her child.
00:38:10Exactly. You take the side of a would-be murderer?
00:38:14You can choose.
00:38:16Either her or this family.
00:38:22Aunt Nancy?
00:38:25Please leave now.
00:38:32Ashley.
00:38:38Get out, you vile vagabond.
00:38:48What's this?
00:38:50You think you could steal from us as well?
00:38:58Give that back.
00:38:59Look, only a few measly bills, only a broke woman like you, would treat this like treasure.
00:39:07Mr. and Mrs. Anderson wouldn't even bother to pick this amount up off the ground.
00:39:11I used such measly bucks to raise two daughters.
00:39:15I was able to give my children a better life out of the country and in the city.
00:39:20I am sure they are glad to be away from you, hillbilly.
00:39:24I earned every cent I made through hard work.
00:39:29You think you're better than me?
00:39:31You think my money is worthless?
00:39:33I made a happy home.
00:39:36Earning this much every month.
00:39:38This is a month's income.
00:39:41Beautiful.
00:39:43No one here wants your paltry earnings.
00:39:47So get out, you delusional, impoverished bitch.
00:40:03Mum?
00:40:09What is going on here?
00:40:13Who are you people?
00:40:15Dare you treat her like this?
00:40:18Who are you people?
00:40:20Dare you treat her like this?
00:40:23Forget it, Lauren.
00:40:24I just want to leave.
00:40:26Ma, did they hurt you?
00:40:29No, no.
00:40:31They're my employers.
00:40:33That's right.
00:40:34She works for us.
00:40:36Who cares if we gave her a little lesson?
00:40:39And who the hell are you?
00:40:40I'm her daughter.
00:40:42What?
00:40:43Mom only had me.
00:40:45Well, and Lauren.
00:40:47But who knows what happened to that poor foster girl.
00:40:51You liar!
00:40:53She's just a kind woman I met in the city.
00:40:56She's been helping me.
00:40:58I told her she reminded me of my daughter.
00:41:07No children of your own to scam or did you run them off.
00:41:11Do not speak to her that way.
00:41:14Nancy is my family.
00:41:16She's still trash.
00:41:18The two of you deserve each other.
00:41:20A couple of lying beggars.
00:41:25Beggars!
00:41:26Do you know who I am?
00:41:28We don't care who you are.
00:41:30Ever heard of Brooks Group?
00:41:32The Brooks Group?
00:41:33What?
00:41:34Do you clean their toilets or something?
00:41:37You really have no clue, do you?
00:41:41Sweetheart, I don't feel well.
00:41:43Can we just go home?
00:41:45Of course, Ma.
00:41:46I'll take you home.
00:41:47Hugh, you pathetic little bums.
00:42:03Ma, I'm here.
00:42:09Are you feeling all right?
00:42:11What did they do to you?
00:42:14Just say the word and I'll make them pay.
00:42:16I'm okay.
00:42:18Ma, you said you were going to Ashley's to help out.
00:42:22What happened?
00:42:24They hired a nanny for Willow, so they didn't need me and I found another job.
00:42:32But they don't need me either.
00:42:35Why are you putting yourself through this?
00:42:37Why won't you just stay with us?
00:42:39I mean, I've already caused you enough trouble.
00:42:43No, you haven't.
00:42:45We would be honoured to have you live with us.
00:42:58I want you to treat yourself.
00:43:01I mean it.
00:43:04Spend as much as you want.
00:43:06There's no limit.
00:43:09Lauren, why are you so good to me?
00:43:12I...
00:43:14I'm just your adoptive mother.
00:43:17What are you talking about?
00:43:19You're at Brooks now and you belong with your kind.
00:43:25Listen.
00:43:26If you hadn't taken me in back then, I probably would have starved or frozen to death on the streets.
00:43:34And you gave everything, everything you had to me and Ashley.
00:43:40You have no idea how much I've missed you.
00:43:44I love you, Ma.
00:43:46Always.
00:43:48I love you too, Lauren.
00:43:51Good.
00:43:52I'm glad we agreed.
00:43:55Oh, I meant to tell you.
00:43:58Next week, I'm taking you to a banquet.
00:44:01A banquet?
00:44:03No, I don't know about that kind of thing.
00:44:06And I'd only embarrass you.
00:44:11That's impossible.
00:44:12Because the banquet is for you.
00:44:15And if you don't want to stay here, I won't force you.
00:44:19I'm buying you a new house anyway.
00:44:29Lauren.
00:44:30I don't know about this whole house idea.
00:44:33I could just go back to where I'm staying.
00:44:36Ma, it's a gift I'm happy to give.
00:44:39If the roles were reversed, you would do the same.
00:44:43Please accept it.
00:44:49I'm sorry, Ma.
00:44:50I gotta take this call.
00:44:52Don't worry.
00:44:52I have someone waiting to assist you.
00:45:02My manager said Miss Brooke's mother would be coming today.
00:45:06Could this be her?
00:45:07If it is, I have to make a good impression.
00:45:15Good day, Miss.
00:45:16May I help you?
00:45:18I don't really know how to do this.
00:45:21I'd be happy to show you everything on offer.
00:45:23Care to sit?
00:45:24Please, this way.
00:45:26Yeah, please.
00:45:27Yeah, have a sit.
00:45:28Yes, yes.
00:45:29Here's some water.
00:45:33Oh, here's our brochure.
00:45:35All our properties are developed by Brooke's group.
00:45:39So, platinum to your quality.
00:45:50Ashley, I am so proud of you.
00:45:54This is the finest collection in the city.
00:45:59After the Brooke's group deal closes, I'll be able to afford the best of the best.
00:46:07Ashley, is that your Aunt Nancy?
00:46:11What is she doing here?
00:46:13I think it's about time I stopped being so nice to her.
00:46:18How much is that one?
00:46:20It's only for 1.5 million.
00:46:251.5 million dollars?
00:46:27Yes, and a great value at that.
00:46:30Oh, if you're planning to live with your family, I'd recommend Augustine model.
00:46:377,500 square feet, 6 baths, 6 bedrooms at $18 million.
00:46:42Oh, that's far more than I need.
00:46:45$18 million?
00:46:46That old hag couldn't afford that much in 18 lifetimes.
00:46:52Excuse me, who are you?
00:46:55Lucy Anderson, one of your top clientele.
00:46:59And that woman.
00:47:01Regrettably, she was our maid, and we had to fire her for misconduct.
00:47:06She's a liar.
00:47:07Don't waste any more time on her.
00:47:09That's right.
00:47:09She's a Brooke nobody.
00:47:11A grifter, cosplaying affluence.
00:47:13Wait, this isn't Miss Brooke's mother?
00:47:16Shit.
00:47:16I've been wasting my time with her.
00:47:19Auntie, what are you doing?
00:47:20Just leave town and go home already.
00:47:23Ashley, do you really hate me so much?
00:47:27Am I such a disgrace to you?
00:47:30What happened to that sweet little girl I used to know?
00:47:37So what?
00:47:38I'm not good enough to even exist in this city?
00:47:41Ashley, why does she care so much about what you think?
00:47:44It's not like she's your mom or something.
00:47:49I don't know what you want from me.
00:47:51I was just being nice to you because you came all the way from the countryside.
00:47:55That's all.
00:47:57Some people, they just walk into the city and they think they belong in the city.
00:48:02The truth is, you're just a country bumkin and you'll never be like us.
00:48:11You know what?
00:48:13That's right.
00:48:14I'll never be like you.
00:48:16I scrimped and saved my whole life so my family could have something better.
00:48:23You all think I'm poor, but I'm rich in good memories of my...
00:48:31of Ashley, even if she's forgotten.
00:48:39You think I can't afford a home?
00:48:47That three-bedroom, two-bath model?
00:48:50Uh, Rivera model, yes.
00:48:52I'll take it.
00:48:53Full payment, now.
00:48:55Of course.
00:48:57I'll grab the weed card and the contract will be right away, okay?
00:49:03Now, I'm wondering where you found this obviously fake card.
00:49:06Well, maybe you stole it.
00:49:08Give it back!
00:49:08No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:49:09You want it now?
00:49:11You beg me.
00:49:12No, I never...
00:49:13Whatever you're doing, stop it, okay?
00:49:15But just embarrass yourself further.
00:49:17I know you don't have that kind of money.
00:49:19You do realize that these properties were developed by the Brooks Group?
00:49:23Elite only begins to describe their clientele.
00:49:27And this fake card isn't going to work.
00:49:29Shall we now add fraud to your list of crimes?
00:49:34Sorry, Lauren.
00:49:36Just this once, I want to be selfish to prove myself.
00:49:43Sir?
00:49:45Please rent the card.
00:49:48Of course, miss.
00:49:49Right away.
00:49:50Ashley, there's no way she has that kind of money, right?
00:49:53All set.
00:49:54Please swipe a card.
00:49:56That would be 1.5 million dollars.
00:49:59Go ahead, darling.
00:50:01Swipe it.
00:50:03Mom probably doesn't even have 10 grand, let alone a mil five.
00:50:09What am I doing?
00:50:10This is crazy.
00:50:12No matter what these people say, I can't spend Lauren's money like this.
00:50:171.5 million dollars?
00:50:19I must be out of my mind.
00:50:23Actually, I'm sorry.
00:50:25I can't buy this yet.
00:50:27Seriously?
00:50:28Sorry, my friend.
00:50:30But what the fuck, lady?
00:50:31I knew she was bluffing.
00:50:32It's probably the cheapest listing and she can't even afford it.
00:50:36Enough!
00:50:37Get out of the way!
00:50:38We're here to buy.
00:50:39Show me your most expensive property.
00:50:42Absolutely.
00:50:45Don't have it.
00:50:46Can I buy it?
00:50:48Ashley's about to get a huge payout, aren't you?
00:50:52And we can leverage some funds.
00:50:55Show me the most expensive listing.
00:50:58But that's 18 million.
00:51:00Your point?
00:51:01If you're not willing to contribute to this family, then why did you even marry my son?
00:51:06Ashley, you know Mother's right, as always.
00:51:09Of course, I'm sorry.
00:51:13I'm sorry, Lauren.
00:51:14I can't give up on Ashley.
00:51:17Please forgive me.
00:51:19Pardon me, sir.
00:51:20I was here first.
00:51:22The Augustine model, I believe you called it.
00:51:26I'll take it.
00:51:28Charge the card.
00:51:43Come on.
00:51:44Are you kidding me?
00:51:45The card even doesn't work.
00:51:47No, no.
00:51:48That's impossible.
00:51:50There must be money on it.
00:51:51I told you.
00:51:52She has no money.
00:51:54Lady, why don't you just hitchhike your way back to your little farm?
00:51:58You're getting in the way of your betters.
00:52:01She's not buying the house.
00:52:03We are.
00:52:04But I have one condition.
00:52:07Of course.
00:52:08Whatever you need.
00:52:09She's polluting the air.
00:52:11And if you want our business, slap her.
00:52:15Twice.
00:52:15But Mother, isn't that...
00:52:18You dare defend her again?
00:52:21No.
00:52:22Of course not.
00:52:24Just a moment.
00:52:26Security!
00:52:29Slap this woman hard.
00:52:32Yes, sir.
00:52:33Oh, no, no.
00:52:34I meant for you to slap her, but...
00:52:36Watching these two men do it is quite delightful.
00:52:40I'll allow it.
00:52:42Get your hands off me!
00:52:48Stop!
00:52:51What is the meaning of this?
00:52:55Sorry.
00:52:56Sorry.
00:52:57Look.
00:52:58It's the little tramp accomplice.
00:53:01Excuse me.
00:53:02We're in the middle of the situation here.
00:53:04You can make an appointment if you want to.
00:53:07Don't bother with her.
00:53:08She's a con artist, like the old woman.
00:53:11Yeah.
00:53:12They're both loser nobodies.
00:53:15Exactly.
00:53:17Or are you about to claim you're some long-lost heir of the Rockefellers?
00:53:20Or perhaps a Brooks family's second cousin twice removed?
00:53:24Get rid of them now!
00:53:27Just a moment.
00:53:51Just a moment.
00:53:56Hello?
00:53:56Out now!
00:53:58Ouch!
00:53:59Ouch!
00:54:00My arm!
00:54:00Hey, Stormtrooper!
00:54:02Let her go!
00:54:03If you harm her, there'll be hell to pay.
00:54:08What on earth is going on in here?
00:54:11Who's creating such a ruckus?
00:54:16Oh, black card.
00:54:19I can't believe that I almost didn't recognize our most VIP-y clientele.
00:54:25VIP or not, no one should be treated this way.
00:54:40You idiot!
00:54:43How did you not see the black card?
00:54:46Sir, please don't be fooled.
00:54:49The card was fake.
00:54:51The card didn't respond.
00:54:52It's a fake.
00:54:53You're a fool!
00:54:54That is a black prestige card.
00:54:56There's no pen.
00:54:57There's no limit.
00:54:58Regular machines can't even read it.
00:55:01You.
00:55:02You have managed to insult our most VIP clientele.
00:55:06You are fired!
00:55:10Oh, please.
00:55:11Just, just, just, just.
00:55:15Um, man.
00:55:21Huh?
00:55:23Uh, madam.
00:55:25Everything has gone through perfectly.
00:55:28The property now officially belongs to you,
00:55:31and we can begin processing your paperwork.
00:55:34Congratulations.
00:55:38I don't know what to say.
00:55:41I don't have to say anything.
00:55:50What just happened?
00:55:52Oh, my God.
00:55:53Are they part of the Brooks group?
00:56:00This can't be real.
00:56:02No way Mom knows anyone in the Brooks family.
00:56:05But that woman she met,
00:56:07she's clearly loaded.
00:56:09Who is she?
00:56:11Listen, everybody.
00:56:13My Aunt Nancy has never left the countryside before.
00:56:16There is no way she has any connection to the Brooks group.
00:56:20This woman was sleeping on our floor,
00:56:22begging to be our maid, and...
00:56:25No, she'll lie about anything.
00:56:27Yeah.
00:56:28Truly, utterly, pathetic.
00:56:30You absolutely have zero clue.
00:56:34I try to be patient, but...
00:56:37Shut your bitch mouth.
00:56:41I just know who you are.
00:56:43A low-class whore.
00:56:45Pretending to be part of this Brooks circle.
00:56:49We're the ones that have signed with the Brooks group.
00:56:52You don't say.
00:56:53Mm-hmm.
00:56:54You're really working with the Brooks group?
00:56:57Of course.
00:56:59I know you wouldn't know what it means to partner with them,
00:57:03but we're going to be the richest people in the city.
00:57:08Yeah.
00:57:08Even if you somehow could afford this place,
00:57:12you're still much lower than we are.
00:57:15Stephen, show them.
00:57:16We're going to buy the second most expensive property on your list.
00:57:21Mother, let's not be hasty.
00:57:23Until I sign, can we really afford to...
00:57:26Silence, child!
00:57:28This old bitch has bought the most expensive property on the list,
00:57:31and now you're telling us that we can't buy the second?
00:57:35Sorry.
00:57:37Let's just...
00:57:38Swipe the card.
00:57:47Yes, sir.
00:57:48Yes, sir.
00:57:49Understood, sir.
00:57:50I'm afraid I'm unable to sell you this property,
00:57:53or any other property for that matter.
00:58:00Wait, what?
00:58:01Why?
00:58:02You're refusing to sell to us.
00:58:05You can't do that.
00:58:06Well, sue.
00:58:07Well, we are a private business,
00:58:09and therefore we have the power to choose our own clients.
00:58:12Perhaps you should be asking yourself,
00:58:14who was it that I pissed off?
00:58:18That doesn't make any sense.
00:58:20We didn't do anything wrong.
00:58:21My mom is a nobody.
00:58:23Pissing her off doesn't count.
00:58:25Well, that's something that you can contemplate on your own time,
00:58:29and somewhere else.
00:58:30Now, get the hell out of here,
00:58:33before I have security throw you out.
00:58:35Sell or don't sell,
00:58:37we don't care.
00:58:39But you'll regret it.
00:58:40Once this Brooks Group deal has gone through,
00:58:43you're going to come begging back to us.
00:58:46Yeah, you all just wait.
00:58:48Come on.
00:58:49Let's go.
00:58:50I'm looking forward to seeing how things go with the Brooks Group.
00:58:53And I look forward to shoving the deal down your fucking throat.
00:58:58Wherever you are,
00:59:00I'll find you.
00:59:03I'm seeing you.
00:59:15Hey, what's wrong?
00:59:18I don't know.
00:59:20I feel like mom's hiding something from me.
00:59:24She's probably just overwhelmed.
00:59:26This is all new to her.
00:59:29And she has been through a lot.
00:59:32You know, maybe when she gets to the banquet,
00:59:33and she sees Ashley,
00:59:35and sees the surprise that you planned for her,
00:59:38she'll realize that everything's going to be okay.
00:59:40Yeah.
00:59:42Maybe you're right.
00:59:58If it's not, Mr. and Mrs. Anderson,
01:00:00I hear you are working with the Brooks Group now.
01:00:03It's quite impressive.
01:00:04They say this whole banquet isn't your owner, Miss Anderson.
01:00:08Our little Ashley is quite exquisite.
01:00:11No, no, not at all.
01:00:13I am just so grateful to have the opportunity
01:00:16to show the world who the Anderson family is
01:00:18and what we're capable of.
01:00:20Miss Anderson, we hope you'll remember us
01:00:22and we won't forget you.
01:00:24Oh, thank you.
01:00:25Of course.
01:00:41Oh, Lauren, I really shouldn't be here.
01:00:44I'm not dressed right.
01:00:46I don't belong in a place like this.
01:00:49Mom, you belong here more than anyone else.
01:00:54This banquet is for you.
01:00:59Damn it.
01:01:00It's the office.
01:01:02I have to take this.
01:01:04Mom, go on inside without me, okay?
01:01:07William will be right here.
01:01:09No, no, no, no.
01:01:10I can't go in alone.
01:01:12You'll be fine.
01:01:13You deserve this.
01:01:15You deserve to be seen.
01:01:22I'll be right back.
01:01:35Who's that?
01:01:37Dunno.
01:01:38Never saw her before.
01:01:40She's here?

01:11:27You. You're the guest I invited. You're Ashley.
01:11:32You're that woman in the sales office.
01:11:35Were you stalking us too?
01:11:37You see, I told you. These three, they're in it together. The washed up old hag, the wild
01:11:44little slut and that disgusting gimp. All here to stir up trouble.
01:11:49Uh oh. That's Lorim Brooks.
01:11:52Oh my god. And you heard what that woman just called her?
01:11:56I don't think they actually know Ms. Brooks.
01:12:01What is wrong with you people? They're all fake. Call the police, Steven.
01:12:17How dare you publicly humiliate Ms. Brooks.
01:12:20Ms. Brooks?
01:12:25Ashley Morgan?
01:12:26Yeah, that's me.
01:12:29I can't believe it. You really don't recognize me?
01:12:34Shhh.
01:12:35I don't know.
01:12:37Look at me.
01:12:37You stand here mocking her.
01:12:41Humiliating her.
01:12:42Shoving her around in public.
01:12:45And yet, you feel nothing.
01:12:48I know you really want this contract, Ashley, but I don't want to give it to you anymore.
01:12:54No, you can't do that, Ms. Brooks.
01:12:59I am so stupid.
01:13:02I mean, Ms. Brooks, of course they recognize you.
01:13:04I mean, everyone knows your family.
01:13:08Enough!
01:13:09Ms. Brooks, we were wrong.
01:13:11We see that now.
01:13:12Please have some mercy.
01:13:14We didn't mean any harm.
01:13:15Let us make it up to you, alright?
01:13:20Don't play innocent with me.
01:13:23I heard every word you said to Nancy.
01:13:26And I'm sure you all said and did worse when you were alone with her.
01:13:30Ms. Brooks, I'm sorry.
01:13:31I can see we got off on the wrong foot.
01:13:33Look, we know we messed up, but the project, that's business, right?
01:13:38Forget the contract.
01:13:40Forget business.
01:13:42What about family?
01:13:44Why are you saying this to me?
01:13:46I'll tell you.
01:13:48But first, answer me this.
01:13:54Who is she?
01:14:00Who is that woman?
01:14:04Say it, Ashley Morgan.
01:14:06Right here, in front of everyone.
01:14:10Tell everyone who this woman really is.
01:14:16Say it, Ashley.
01:14:18Who is she?
01:14:22Ms. Brooks, I don't know what you're talking about.
01:14:29But it should have nothing to do with our contract.
01:14:33We're professionals.
01:14:38I...
01:14:38I...
01:14:39I can't handle this anymore.
01:14:42I shouldn't be here.
01:14:43I wasn't made for this...
01:14:46big city life.
01:14:48I've never been anything but worthless.
01:14:52You can't let them treat you like this.
01:14:54You're not what they say.
01:14:57You're the most precious person I've ever known.
01:15:01Ms. Brooks, please just let her leave.
01:15:03Don't allow her to ruin the evening.
01:15:08Our evening?
01:15:09Is that all you care about?
01:15:11The contract?
01:15:12Money?
01:15:13I'm sorry, but I...
01:15:16Ashley...
01:15:17You kicked Nancy out of your wedding.
01:15:20You humiliated her while buying a house.
01:15:24And now you just stand here watching as your mother-in-law bullies and abuses her.
01:15:30Not even a stranger deserves to be treated like this.
01:15:34But she's not a stranger, is she?
01:15:38Tell me.
01:15:40Who took care of you when you were sick?
01:15:44Who stayed up with you when you had a nightmare?
01:15:47Who gave up everything?
01:15:51Everything!
01:15:52To give you a better life.
01:15:56She's not some random woman.
01:15:58She's not even your aunt.
01:16:01She's the reason you exist.
01:16:03So why is it so hard to admit that she is your mother?
01:16:10She's Mrs. Anderson's mother?
01:16:13She's Mrs. Anderson's mother?
01:16:13Her mother was right there.
01:16:15And she refused to acknowledge her.
01:16:18And she even humiliated her in public.
01:16:22How terrible.
01:16:23How do you know that?
01:16:28Wait.
01:16:35Oh my god.
01:16:38You're Lauren.
01:16:41She's your mother, Ashley?
01:16:43You told me that she was traveling the world.
01:16:46That she wasn't even in the country.
01:16:49You told me that she was just a distant aunt.
01:16:53Ashley, you lied to us.
01:16:54Your mother is just a dirty old woman.
01:16:57Ashley, this woman raised you.
01:17:01Gave her all for you.
01:17:05Provided a home full of love.
01:17:08And you denied her.
01:17:11Like she was nothing.
01:17:14Ungrateful brat.
01:17:15If she would betray her mother like that,
01:17:18how could anyone ever trust her?
01:17:20Honestly, I feel bad for that poor woman.
01:17:24Alright.
01:17:25You all asked for this.
01:17:44I am so sorry
01:17:47Please, please give me another chance
01:17:52We were wrong
01:17:54We were very wrong
01:17:56We were decent people, really
01:18:00I promise, from now on, I'm gonna treat Nancy with the most utter respect
01:18:07I'm not the one you should be kneeling to
01:18:23Oops, accidents
01:18:40But you did ask for this, you son of a bitch
01:18:58Oh, mommy
01:19:04I know I fucked up
01:19:08I just got caught up in all of this
01:19:11And it's been so hard
01:19:16I don't know
01:19:17I didn't, I see that now, I was just awful
01:19:22It could change for you
01:19:24And for Willow, don't forget your granddaughter
01:19:29Mother
01:19:31I didn't know it was yours
01:19:34I promise, I promise, from now on, I'll treat you, I'll treat you like my own mother
01:19:40Nancy, what a wild ride
01:19:47You know what it's like for women of our age
01:19:51We have to keep our appearances
01:19:53Keep a couple of, let's not dwell past
01:19:57Let's be friends, dear
01:20:01Whatever you just say, mom
01:20:02I'm with you
01:20:28Ashley
01:20:32I can see I've been a source of shame for you
01:20:37And that's a hard thing for a mother to accept
01:20:49Yes, I come from the countryside
01:20:54And yes, I've led a humble life
01:21:00Which some might consider poor
01:21:04Since I've come to town
01:21:07I've been harassed
01:21:09And mistreated
01:21:11Lied to
01:21:12And lied about
01:21:18Ashley
01:21:21I can see how I've embarrassed you
01:21:24I'm not the kind of mother you want
01:21:27She is
01:21:28I've made peace with that
01:21:30And I'll be okay
01:21:32Really
01:21:34But from now on
01:21:40You are not

01:22:14No one works with you ever again
01:22:18Furthermore
01:22:19I will have my lawyer investigate
01:22:21All that you did to my mother
01:22:24And you will be held accountable to the full extent of the law

01:24:25Of course not. My mom's on vacation in Europe.
01:24:28No, I'm not Willow. I'm right here.
01:24:31You're mistaken, ma'am. I've never seen you before in my life.
01:24:34Okay, let's go in this case. Let's go to the coffee shop. Just have some break.
01:24:43Madam, isn't that your daughter Miss Anderson? Would you like to go say hello?
