00:00:02Carter and Nora, my husband and daughter, my whole world.
00:00:06I grabbed all this stuff to whip up a special dinner for our wedding anniversary.
00:00:14Daddy, was she like my present?
00:00:17She'll love anything you make her.
00:00:21It's almost time.
00:00:24Let's go get the cake.
00:00:33They remembered.
00:00:38This must be my anniversary gift from Nora.
00:00:41Mommy?
00:00:44Hey, baby.
00:00:46Carter, I got you your favorite lobster and I got Nora her favorite apple pie.
00:00:51I'm going to make a feast for our anniversary.
00:00:52Mommy, why are you wearing the brooch I made for Miss Ashley?
00:00:56Miss Ashley? Your teacher?
00:01:08Why are you wearing my clothes in my bedroom?
00:01:12Oh, these little things?
00:01:14No wonder the top is a little snug and the waist is loose.
00:01:17Ashley got soaked bathing Nora.
00:01:19Your closet was convenient.
00:01:21You never liked me wearing bright colors, but I guess you're fine with the colors.
00:01:25You just don't like me wearing them.
00:01:27Mommy, give the brooch back to Miss Ashley.
00:01:29I spent all day making it special for her birthday.
00:01:49You threw her a birthday party in my house?
00:01:52On our wedding anniversary?
00:01:57You threw her a birthday party in my house?
00:02:00On our wedding anniversary?
00:02:02Our anniversary?
00:02:03Big deal.
00:02:04Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:02:06I had no idea it was your anniversary.
00:02:08Carter didn't mention it.
00:02:10Nora, it's your mother's special day.
00:02:12If she wants the brooch so badly, she can keep it.
00:02:15I already know how much you love me.
00:02:17No, it's for you.
00:02:18Mommy can't have it.
00:02:20Give it back.
00:02:21It looked ugly on you.
00:02:25Yes, I got it.
00:02:27Here you go, Miss Ashley.
00:02:28It'll look way better on you than Mommy.
00:02:31Nora, I'm your mother.
00:02:32Why are you doing this to me?
00:02:34That's my sweet girl.
00:02:35Thank you, Nora.
00:02:36And thank you for the party, Carter.
00:02:40Carter, I've waited years for that smile, but now it's for another woman.
00:02:50Carter, why don't we go and check and see if my clothes are dry?
00:02:54They look perfect, like a family, and I'm just a ghost in my own home.
00:03:03Nine years ago, I finally gathered up the courage to ask out Carter, who I'd had a crush on for
00:03:08years.
00:03:09Carter, I've had feelings for you for so long.
00:03:14Love me.
00:03:17Love me.
00:03:31After that insane night, I married the love of my life.
00:03:35Don't think drugging me and trapping me with a baby makes you my wife.
00:03:39You're just another gold digger.
00:03:41I did it.
00:03:42Even though I was never his.
00:03:46Mr. Collins, your wife and baby are in critical condition.
00:03:50We need you to decide, save the mother or the baby.
00:03:53The baby.
00:03:54That's all I care about, save the baby.
00:03:57I survived, only to be crippled by duty and guilt.
00:04:01Your daughter's premature and very fragile.
00:04:05Look how weak she is.
00:04:06She will always need to be on a strict diet for her health.
00:04:09This is all your fault!
00:04:12I put a promising career on hold.
00:04:16Dedicated myself to becoming the perfect Mrs. Collins.
00:04:21I became the whole package.
00:04:22The perfect homemaker, a nutritionist.
00:04:25Old Mule again?
00:04:26I hate it!
00:04:27I want french fries!
00:04:28I gave it my all.
00:04:30Everything I had for your happiness.
00:04:32But where it was mine.
00:04:38Nora, the restaurant we're going to has those french fries you love.
00:04:42Yes!
00:04:42Miss Ashley, I want you to be my mommy.
00:04:46My husband doesn't love me.
00:04:48My child doesn't want me.
00:04:51I have no reason to stay home anymore.
00:04:56Carter.
00:04:58Carter.
00:05:01Sign this.
00:05:08Carter.
00:05:11Sign this.
00:05:14Carter, could you help me with my coat, please?
00:05:17Of course.
00:05:20You didn't even read it.
00:05:21Just signed our marriage away like it was nothing.
00:05:25With the prenup?
00:05:27You scrutinized every comma.
00:05:30All right, come on.
00:05:31Our reservation's almost done.
00:05:32Do you even know what you just signed?
00:05:35Nora's insurance paperwork.
00:05:37You worry too much.
00:05:42Can't you see I'm busy?
00:05:44Don't bother me with trivial matters.
00:05:52This is the last time I'll ever bother you with trivial matters.
00:06:05I'm taking what's left of me and burning the rest.
00:06:10Goodbye, Carter.
00:06:12Goodbye, Nora.
00:06:29Daddy, where's mommy?
00:06:32I want my strawberry milkshake.
00:06:33Probably tired and went to bed early.
00:06:35Daddy, mommy doesn't let me eat snacks, but her strawberry milkshake is so good.
00:06:40I want one now.
00:06:43You can go wake her up if you want to.
00:06:47Sir, I know it's not my place, but Mrs. Collins has been so devoted to this family.
00:06:56Today, today broke her.
00:06:59What are you talking about?
00:07:00Mr. Collins, you know how much she cares for you.
00:07:27Don't touch me.
00:07:28Are you trying to drug me again?
00:07:31You're burning up.
00:07:35Where are you taking me?
00:07:37The hospital.
00:07:39Oh, dear.
00:07:43She asked me to give you this before she left tonight.
00:07:47It's your signed copy.
00:07:48What do you mean she left?
00:08:06Ashley.
00:08:07Carter, I think I left my favorite earrings in your bedroom.
00:08:10I'll go check.
00:08:15Yep, found them.
00:08:16They'll be waiting for you when you get back.
00:08:20Sir, the documents.
00:08:24Put them in my office.
00:08:26I'll look at them later.
00:08:27Yes, sir.
00:08:28And don't be fooled, Helen.
00:08:29She may love me, but she loves being Mrs. Collins more than anything.
00:08:36Daddy, Mommy left?
00:08:38Where is she?
00:08:40I want my strawberry milkshake.
00:08:41Don't worry, baby.
00:08:43She'll be back.
00:08:44She's got nowhere else to go.
00:08:46No.
00:09:02Welcome back, Dr. Zoe.
00:09:08Welcome back, Dr. Zoe.
00:09:11Zoe, you're finally back.
00:09:15Director, it's been too long.
00:09:18You know, if you hadn't left for marriage, you'd be running this place by now.
00:09:21Thank God you're back.
00:09:23I thought you'd be locked in that house forever.
00:09:25Well, I'm getting a divorce.
00:09:26I filed the papers, and in a month, I'll be free.
00:09:30Divorced?
00:09:41I'd say congratulations.
00:09:43And welcome back, Zoe.
00:09:46Ethan, it's been a while.
00:09:53My research, my notes.
00:09:55The only things from this house still worth taking.
00:10:02Mommy?
00:10:03Who are you expecting?
00:10:12Nora.
00:10:13You shouldn't watch the iPad for so long.
00:10:16It's bad for your eyes.
00:10:21Miss Ashley, that's me.
00:10:22You're always ruining everything.
00:10:24Nora!
00:10:25Get out.
00:10:26I don't want to hear you anymore.
00:10:31Nora!
00:10:32Nora, it's been three hours.
00:10:33Open the door.
00:10:34No, you're annoying.
00:10:36Miss Ashley will come play with me.
00:10:37Nora!
00:10:40Miss Ashley, I missed you.
00:10:43Why is this annoying brat always here?
00:10:47Fine.
00:10:47At least I could use her to get closer to Carter.
00:10:51Nora, let Mommy in.
00:10:53It's so cold.
00:10:55Daddy, Miss Ashley, let's play Lego.
00:10:58When did Nora start hating me?
00:11:02Mommy!
00:11:03Hugs!
00:11:06I love you, Mommy.
00:11:08Nora, let's go.
00:11:11Your grandparents are waiting.
00:11:12Mommy comes too?
00:11:14No.
00:11:17She can't.
00:11:20The doctor said Nora needs more protein at this stage.
00:11:23I'll make her favorite fish today.
00:11:25Promise me you won't grow up to be like your mom.
00:11:28She's just a housewife.
00:11:29She cooks and cleans all day and is totally dependent on your dad.
00:11:33It's sad.
00:11:34Mommy is sad?
00:11:53Miss Ashley, I wish you were my mommy.
00:11:55Miss Ashley, I wish you were my mommy.
00:12:11Miss Ashley, I wish you were my mommy.
00:12:16Your body temperature dropped dangerously low.
00:12:19And if it weren't for your nanny finding you, you wouldn't have made it.
00:12:23Now you just need plenty of rest and to stay warm.
00:12:26My own child almost killed me.
00:12:35Thanks.
00:12:37Zoe?
00:12:38What are you doing here?
00:12:40God, you're pale.
00:12:42Is everything okay?
00:12:44I'm okay.
00:12:45Miss Zoe!
00:12:48You're Mia.
00:12:50Yeah.
00:12:51Yeah.
00:12:52Remember this little one?
00:12:53In the car accident.
00:12:54Took my sister and brother-in-law three years ago.
00:12:57And I was too busy and overwhelmed.
00:12:59So I asked you to help me look after her for a few days.
00:13:03She hasn't stopped talking about you since.
00:13:05I missed you so much, Miss Zoe.
00:13:07You gave me this bunny.
00:13:09I mean her bun bun.
00:13:10I sleep with her every single night.
00:13:13I really, really like you, Miss Zoe.
00:13:18I watched this kid for a week.
00:13:20Just a week.
00:13:21And she never forgot me.
00:13:26Do you want to have fun bun, Miss Zoe?
00:13:29But my own daughter?
00:13:30The one I gave everything to?
00:13:32She locked me out on that freezing balcony just to get away from me.
00:13:36You're always ruining everything!
00:13:38No!
00:13:40No!
00:13:41No!
00:13:41No!
00:13:42No!
00:13:42No!
00:13:42No!
00:13:43No!
00:13:43No!
00:13:45No!
00:13:48Ethan, take me back to the Collins house.
00:13:50I want to get my research.
00:13:52I'm cutting ties with that house.
00:13:54With that life.
00:13:55For good.
00:14:01Mommy?
00:14:02Mrs. Collins!
00:14:04Thank goodness you're alright!
00:14:06Mr. Collins is in his office.
00:14:08I'll let him know that you're back.
00:14:09Don't bother.
00:14:10I won't be staying long.
00:14:14It was just a goof last night.
00:14:17Mommy's fine now.
00:14:22Mommy, where are you going?
00:14:24I'm leaving this house.
00:14:28Nora, try to eat something healthy.
00:14:30Not just snacks.
00:14:32And don't watch the screen all day.
00:14:35Your health is the only thing I was concerned about.
00:14:37And, maybe, whatever happens, just take care of yourself.
00:14:48Mommy?
00:14:54Goodbye, Carter and Nora.
00:14:57Let's go.
00:15:02Okay, I'm going to shoot the paperwork over in the morning and seal the deal.
00:15:09Wait, is this the document Zoe had me signed before?
00:15:13Daddy!
00:15:14Mom!
00:15:14Mommy's leaving!
00:15:19Mommy's leaving!
00:15:22She didn't stay, huh?
00:15:24Maybe she went to see Grandma in Europe.
00:15:26Relax.
00:15:27She'll be back.
00:15:29Weird.
00:15:30Zoe didn't tell me this time.
00:15:33Whatever.
00:15:36Whatever.
00:15:37Can we go see Grandma too?
00:15:38You want to go?
00:15:40Oh!
00:15:41Miss Ashley is inviting us skiing tomorrow!
00:15:50Zoe, if you need a place to stay, I have an extra apartment by the lab.
00:15:54And don't worry about imposing.
00:15:56It's just sitting empty.
00:15:58Thank you, Ethan.
00:16:00I owe you.
00:16:06A whole week?
00:16:07Mommy didn't call me.
00:16:08She used to call me every day.
00:16:13Hi!
00:16:18Good morning, Miss Zoe!
00:16:20Good morning, Mia!
00:16:26Good morning, Miss Zoe!
00:16:29Good morning, Mia.
00:16:32Hi, Zoe.
00:16:33You look well.
00:16:34You settling in all right?
00:16:36Yeah, absolutely.
00:16:37Well, Mia and I were thinking about going to the grocery store.
00:16:40Yeah.
00:16:41Figured you were still unpacking and could use a little trip.
00:16:44You want to join us?
00:16:45Pretty please, Miss Zoe.
00:16:48Okay.
00:16:49I just have to get changed really quick.
00:16:52We'll wait outside.
00:16:55It must be Mommy!
00:16:56Mommy!
00:16:57Mommy!
00:16:58Mommy!
00:16:59Mommy?
00:17:00Hey, sweetie.
00:17:00It's Ashley.
00:17:02Oh.
00:17:03It's Ashley.
00:17:04Your dad told me you love picnic.
00:17:05So, we're going tomorrow.
00:17:07Just you, me, and him.
00:17:09Yeah.
00:17:10Yeah, I love picnic.
00:17:11Great.
00:17:12Let's go to the supermarket today to get some supplies.
00:17:14Okay.
00:17:22Oh.
00:17:24Are they okay?
00:17:25I think I got something in my eye.
00:17:27Hey, girl, let me take a look.
00:17:30Hold the cell?
00:17:31I'm sorry.
00:17:31I'm not sure.
00:17:39Why is Mommy holding that other kid's hand?
00:17:41And why is she kissing that other uncle?
00:17:44Does she have a new family now?
00:17:45Does she have a new family now?
00:17:49Zoe, what the hell are you doing?
00:17:59So, did Mommy, like, disappear?
00:18:02What's wrong?
00:18:04Nothing.
00:18:04It's a trick of the light.
00:18:06Probably.
00:18:08Zoe couldn't be here.
00:18:10That woman lives for Nora and me.
00:18:12She'd never be with another man and child.
00:18:14I'm just over-tired.
00:18:17Come on.
00:18:18Let's get out of here.
00:18:21You can set those there.
00:18:30Thank you for everything.
00:18:33You don't have to thank me.
00:18:35You were here for Mia when I couldn't be.
00:18:37But the rent, I...
00:18:39Just be here for Mia when you can.
00:18:43That's...
00:18:43I'll ask.
00:18:45She misses you.
00:18:46And honestly, so do I.
00:18:50Please, Ms. Zoe.
00:18:51You'll play with me and bun bun?
00:18:54Of course I'll play with you.
00:18:56But you swear.
00:18:59Is that a wound on your finger?
00:19:01Does it hurt?
00:19:03Does it hurt?
00:19:10It was kind of a wound, but it's fading.
00:19:14And soon it'll be gone forever.
00:19:25It's Zoe's wedding ring.
00:19:29Ellen, when was Zoe here last?
00:19:32Uh, about a week ago, Mr. Collins.
00:19:35She ditched her ring.
00:19:37What game is she playing now?
00:19:43What's wrong with the coffee?
00:19:45I'm sorry, Mr. Collins.
00:19:46I...
00:19:47I can't make it right the way Mrs. Collins did.
00:19:51She always knew how long to steep the coffee.
00:19:54Perfect every time.
00:20:00Ew.
00:20:02This cake tastes weird.
00:20:03Not like before.
00:20:04Your mother used to bake the cakes.
00:20:08She worked so hard to make it healthy and taste right.
00:20:14I'll do my best.
00:20:15But it's not the same.
00:20:18Daddy, will you call Mommy?
00:20:24I'm making this call for you, Nora.
00:20:28Not for myself.
00:20:36Mommy never misses your calls.
00:20:39What's this, Zoe?
00:20:40Playing hard to get.
00:20:49Everyone, this is Zoe.
00:20:51The sharpest mind I have ever met.
00:20:53Published in nature before even graduating high school.
00:20:57Absolute genius.
00:20:59We used to call her the prodigy back in college.
00:21:02They're overselling it, really.
00:21:04The prodigy?
00:21:05Seriously?
00:21:06We all have credentials here.
00:21:08What makes her so special?
00:21:09Watch your tone, Mike.
00:21:10With all respect, Mr. West.
00:21:12Just because you two go way back doesn't mean she walks right in.
00:21:14She's been out of research for years.
00:21:15How's that fair?
00:21:17Shouldn't you be baking cookies at home or something?
00:21:23What, are you going to hit me now because you can't argue?
00:21:25Seriously?
00:21:27Your data's wrong.
00:21:30What?
00:21:32Your data's wrong.
00:21:34What?
00:21:36How dare you come here?
00:21:37The data spike between days three and four?
00:21:39Too clean.
00:21:41Looks manufactured.
00:21:43Basic error.
00:21:43What?
00:21:44Bullshit.
00:21:45It can't be true.
00:21:50Responded it in ten seconds.
00:21:52Still got it, prodigy.
00:21:54Anyone else want to question Dr. Zoe's place here?
00:22:01Great.
00:22:02Everyone back to work.
00:22:04Mr. Collins, here's the file on the nation's leading biotech institute.
00:22:08They've brought on a brilliant researcher.
00:22:11Her drug breakthrough has serious novella potential.
00:22:14If they greenlight our collab,
00:22:16Ethan West himself will handle the signing.
00:22:19Get her locked down.
00:22:24Two weeks.
00:22:25No calls.
00:22:27No return.
00:22:28Is this her petty revenge?
00:22:34Is that we here?
00:22:35Yeah.
00:22:36Something can do that.
00:22:37It's great.
00:22:40Not taking it?
00:22:46We're getting a divorce.
00:22:48There's nothing left to say.
00:22:50Well, you've ghosted him for weeks.
00:22:53Seems like you've truly moved on.
00:22:59Looks like he really wants to talk.
00:23:01Maybe he wants to talk about the details of the divorce.
00:23:11You want to talk about the agreement?
00:23:13Hi, Zoe.
00:23:14It's James.
00:23:18Oh.
00:23:19Hi, James.
00:23:20That's Carter's father.
00:23:22The only one in that family who ever treated me like a person.
00:23:25I'm calling about dinner tonight.
00:23:27Bring Carter and Nora, will you?
00:23:29Uh, James, Carter and I were, um...
00:23:33I know.
00:23:34Heard you haven't been home in weeks.
00:23:36Don't you worry, dear.
00:23:38I'll add Carter.
00:23:40I at least owe James a goodbye.
00:23:43Okay.
00:23:45I'll be there.
00:23:48Zoe, you did it.
00:23:49The trials were a huge success.
00:23:52Wait.
00:23:52Are you saying...
00:23:53I'm saying you're gonna win the Nobel Prize!
00:23:57Ha-ha!
00:24:00Oh, Zoe, this is huge.
00:24:03Nobel-worthy.
00:24:04Oh, I'm taking us to dinner tonight.
00:24:06We're gonna celebrate big time.
00:24:09Thank you, Selena, but...
00:24:11Can I take a rain shake?
00:24:13I have something I can't miss tonight.
00:24:16The Collins family farewell dinner.
00:24:21Just please, I can't help you.
00:24:23Grandma, who was your mom?
00:24:25Really?
00:24:26Very good choice.
00:24:35Good to see you, James.
00:24:37You too, dear.
00:24:39Where are, uh...

00:38:01hello
00:38:02thank you very much
00:38:05so
00:38:10Zoey.
00:38:15Carter, what's wrong?
00:38:17What are you looking at?
00:38:17I thought I just saw Zoey.
00:38:19Zoey?
00:38:20Here, no way.
00:38:22Besides us, it's the bio-institute's shindig tonight.
00:38:25Mommy's just a housewife.
00:38:26Could never be a scientist.
00:38:29Yeah.
00:38:30Let's sit down.
00:38:35Carter, this Michelin star place is so great.
00:38:40Let's just call it an apology for Zoey pushing in the water.
00:38:42I understand Mrs. Collins is just upset.
00:38:46But honestly, what kind of woman leaves her family for a month?
00:38:50What kind of wife?
00:38:52What kind of mother does that?
00:38:55It's just painfully selfish.
00:38:58She'll be back.
00:38:59It's not a question of if, but when.
00:39:02Thank goodness Zoey dumped that loser and came back to us.
00:39:07This breakthrough is all you.
00:39:09Well, cheers.
00:39:11To the Nobel Prize.
00:39:16I'll be right back.
00:39:19It's so good to finally celebrate, honestly.
00:39:21Oh, yeah.
00:39:22Zoey, what the hell are you doing here?
00:39:24Why don't you come back home?
00:39:29Your home seems crowded enough, don't you think?
00:39:32You pushed Ashley in the water, didn't even apologize, and now you're throwing a tantrum
00:39:35and refusing to come home?
00:39:36Do you even care about this family at all?
00:39:38Come with me now.
00:39:40We are getting a divorce.
00:39:41I'm not going anywhere with you.
00:39:44Are you threatening me?
00:39:46Come home with me or I will make that divorce real.
00:39:48She said no.
00:39:49Get the message.
00:39:50And who the hell are you?
00:39:52I'm her best friend.
00:39:55So, you're hanging out with your little friends from the BioGenius Squad?
00:39:59Don't you feel a bit too ordinary?
00:40:02Ordinary?
00:40:03Zoey?
00:40:04Are you blind?
00:40:05Selina, don't even waste your breath.
00:40:07Carter, Laura wants to go home.
00:40:11I expect to see you at home tonight.
00:40:13Is that clear?
00:40:17What happened?
00:40:18Nothing.
00:40:19How dare she ignore what I said and still not come home?
00:40:23What the hell is she doing out there?
00:40:25In a historic move, Dr. Zoey and her team at the Bio Research Institute have been nominated
00:40:31for the Nobel Prize in Medicine for their pioneering drug therapy.
00:40:34Dr. Zoey Winters could become the first woman from her country in nearly a decade to receive
00:40:40the honor.
00:40:42Zoey?
00:40:43The Nobel Prize?
00:40:47Is that Mrs. Collins?
00:40:49Total coincidence.
00:40:51Zoey was too busy helping Nora and me.
00:40:53And she's no scientist.
00:40:54Well, if she didn't run herself ragged keeping this family afloat, she might have actually
00:41:01won the Nobel Prize.
00:41:02Stop imagining things.
00:41:05It's not her.
00:41:07Maybe I pushed too far.
00:41:09No.
00:41:10She's just being dramatic.
00:41:16Yeah.
00:41:17Mr. Collins, the meeting with the Research Institute is set up at 10 a.m. this Thursday.
00:41:21Good.
00:41:22I'll be there.
00:41:27Wait.
00:41:28Didn't you have a doctor's appointment today?
00:41:30Why are you here?
00:41:31The doctor gave me the all-clear.
00:41:32And I was going stir-crazy at home, so I figured I'd come in.
00:41:36Well, I see you're already on to the next big thing.
00:41:40Couldn't sit still, could you, Miss Hotshot Biologist?
00:41:44Don't mind me.
00:41:45You guys go ahead.
00:41:47I've got a meeting with the CEO who's pretty keen on the drug you developed.
00:41:51He wants to collaborate.
00:41:52You want to sit in?
00:41:54No, I'll pass.
00:41:55I'm not big on business deals, and I'm still getting my strength back.
00:41:59Of course.
00:42:00Wait for me.
00:42:01We'll get lunch after.
00:42:32This time, you just vanished.
00:42:34None of your business.
00:42:37You're my wife.
00:42:38Everything you do is my business.
00:42:40Like I still am?
00:42:42Looks like you've already found my replacement.
00:42:44Enough with your little digs.
00:42:46I'm running out of patience.
00:42:49Oh, no!
00:42:50What a mess.
00:42:51I'm so sorry.
00:42:53I guess the janitor better get on that.
00:42:55This is a research institute, not your little playground.
00:42:58Cut the crap.
00:42:58How dare a janitor talk to me like that?
00:43:01Stop!
00:43:02Stop!
00:43:06Mr. Collins, this is Ethan West from the institute.
00:43:09He's the one handling the collaboration.
00:43:11Mr. West, I've heard so much about you.
00:43:14Nice to meet you, Mr. West.
00:43:15I'm Ashley.
00:43:20So, do you know all these people?
00:43:26No.
00:43:28Good.
00:43:29At least she knows when to keep her mouth shut.
00:43:31The last thing I need is anyone thinking my wife is some pathetic janitor.
00:43:35Wouldn't that be a stain on my reputation?
00:43:38Take a rest.
00:43:40I'll handle this.
00:43:42Oh, weird.
00:43:43Why is the boss going to bat over a janitor?
00:43:48Let's go to the conference room.
00:43:54I hear you're interested in collaboration.
00:43:58Let's hear.
00:43:59Yes, Mr. West.
00:44:01Our CEO is deeply impressed with the recent breakthrough, especially the new drug.
00:44:04We want to establish a long-term partnership.
00:44:06We're prepared to offer full financial backing and technical resources to support the project.
00:44:11It's a win-win.
00:44:13Carter Collins, CEO of Collins Group.
00:44:15Carter Collins?
00:44:17Zoe's ex-husband?
00:44:18No wonder.
00:44:21Mr. West.
00:44:27I'm confident our proposal speaks for itself.
00:44:31What do you think?
00:44:32We're not interested.
00:44:34What?
00:44:36We're not interested.
00:44:38What?
00:44:40You didn't even read the proposal.
00:44:42I have my reasons, and that's all you need to know.
00:44:44Mr. West, if you would just look at our proposal.
00:44:46I made my decision.
00:44:49I'll let you two see yourself so.
00:45:04So, how'd it go?
00:45:06Did we pop the champagne?
00:45:07Tea.
00:45:09He turned us down.
00:45:11What?
00:45:12How could he say no?
00:45:17Look, Carter.
00:45:18Is that Mrs. Collins dating Ethan West?
00:45:23Look, Carter.
00:45:25Is that Mrs. Collins dating Ethan West?
00:45:28Is that why she hasn't come home to you?
00:45:31Zoe.
00:45:32How dare you?
00:45:40Ms. Zoe!
00:45:46This little one talks about you all the time.
00:45:49I miss you so much, Miss Ellie.
00:45:53I tried to come visit you, but Uncle Ethan told me I had a school nap, so I couldn't.
00:46:01I miss you too, sweetheart.
00:46:02But look, I'm all better now.
00:46:04And you have to keep going to school.
00:46:05It's important.
00:46:06Keep learning.
00:46:08Okay.
00:46:10Zoe, we have a little favor to ask.
00:46:13Sweetie, you want to ask?
00:46:14Yes.
00:46:17Tomorrow is parent day, and all the other kids will have their moms and their dads.
00:46:25Uncle Ethan has to go on a trip from work tomorrow, so could you call us my mom?
00:46:35No.
00:46:37Could you call us my mom?
00:46:44Her mom passed away in the accident.
00:46:46That's why she asked me.
00:46:48She really needs a mom figure there.
00:46:51Of course.
00:46:53I would be honored to be your mom that day.
00:46:56Really?
00:46:57Mm-hmm.
00:46:58Mm-hmm.
00:47:00Mm-hmm.
00:47:11My favorite auntie is coming to the open house this afternoon.
00:47:14The same one who got you the bell and the bunny?
00:47:17Yeah.
00:47:17She's so pretty and so nice.
00:47:21I invited her, and she said yes right away.
00:47:24So?
00:47:24My mommy's coming too.
00:47:26She's spending the whole afternoon with me.
00:47:29I'll call her right now.
00:47:44It's parent day.
00:47:45When are you going to come play with me?
00:47:51Daddy, save Miss Ashley first.
00:47:53She can't swim.
00:47:57I'm not coming.
00:48:00I'm not coming.
00:48:02But why?
00:48:03I need you there.
00:48:05I want you to come.
00:48:06Just take Ashley with you.
00:48:09Fine.
00:48:10Don't come then.
00:48:11I hate you.
00:48:19Are you upset?
00:48:22How's your mom?
00:48:23Well, I changed my mind.
00:48:25I'll invite Miss Ashley to come.
00:48:27But it's parent day.
00:48:29Why didn't you invite your mom?
00:48:31Did you fight with your mommy?
00:48:33No.
00:48:33Mommy would never fight with me.
00:48:36Oh, so you made her mad.
00:48:40I didn't.
00:48:40Whatever.
00:48:41She's my mommy.
00:48:42She'll forgive me.
00:48:46Nora, even if she's your mommy,
00:48:48if you keep making her mad,
00:48:50she'll be very upset.
00:48:52And if you're not nice to her,
00:48:55she doesn't have to stay your mommy.
00:48:57She could go be someone else's mommy.
00:48:59No.
00:49:01She wouldn't.
00:49:02She's my mommy.
00:49:13Nora, you've called ten times.
00:49:15Parents' day is about to start.
00:49:16Come on, let's go.
00:49:17I...
00:49:18Nora, come on.
00:49:27I hate her.
00:49:32I hate her.
00:49:33Come on.
00:49:35I never want to go to that student school again.
00:49:38I want to go home now.
00:49:40Come here.
00:49:41Oh, such a pain.
00:49:43If she weren't Carter's daughter,
00:49:45I'd dump her in a trash can.
00:49:46Let's call your father.
00:49:51Hey, Carter.
00:49:53Nora isn't feeling well,
00:49:54and she wants to head home.
00:49:55Okay.
00:49:56We'll head back right away.
00:50:07So, Mia,
00:50:08did you have fun today?
00:50:09Yes.
00:50:09All my friends were so jealous
00:50:12because you have the coolest
00:50:13and the most beautiful list.
00:50:16Thank you so much, Ms. Zoe.
00:50:22I can tell you Uncle Ethan's secret
00:50:25as a thank you.
00:50:27Okay.
00:50:28I'm all ears.
00:50:30Uncle Ethan had a crush on you
00:50:31for a long time.
00:50:34He still does.
00:50:37Uncle Ethan had a crush on you
00:50:39for a long time.
00:50:41He still does.
00:50:48Um,
00:50:50Uncle Ethan's adopting me,
00:50:52and
00:50:54this only
00:50:55was going to ask you
00:50:56to be my real mom.
00:50:59Because
00:51:00I really love you like a mom.
00:51:03And
00:51:03if you don't like Uncle Ethan,
00:51:05that's okay.
00:51:06Um,
00:51:07I don't need him.
00:51:07I only need you.
00:51:10You're everything.
00:51:11Oh.
00:51:12Spilling your uncle's tea
00:51:14and then throwing him
00:51:15under the bus.
00:51:16You little rascal.
00:51:17I'm sorry,
00:51:18but
00:51:19is that a yes or no,
00:51:21Ms. Zoe?
00:51:24Yes, Mia.
00:51:25I'll be your mom.
00:51:27But you have to promise me
00:51:29something, too.
00:51:30Yes?
00:51:31You cannot tell Uncle Ethan.
00:51:33Why?
00:51:34Because
00:51:35that's Uncle Ethan's secret.
00:51:36Okay,
00:51:37we have to pretend
00:51:37that we don't know it.
00:51:39That's the respectful thing to do.
00:51:41Okay,
00:51:42Ms. Zoe.
00:51:43And besides,
00:51:44I trust Ethan.
00:51:46If he really likes me,
00:51:47I know he'll tell me.
00:51:48Okay.
00:51:57Ashley said you came home upset.
00:51:59What happened?
00:52:01Daddy,
00:52:01today was Parents' Day,
00:52:03and I called Mom and Vector to come,
00:52:05but she said no.
00:52:09Nora,
00:52:11even if she's your mommy,
00:52:12if you're not nice to her,
00:52:14she doesn't have to stay your mommy.
00:52:16She could go be someone else's mommy.
00:52:21Daddy,
00:52:22is mommy still mad at me?
00:52:24Does she want to be someone else's mommy?
00:52:26Does she don't want me anymore?
00:52:27No.
00:52:29Your mom would never,
00:52:31ever leave you.
00:52:32I've been so mean to her.
00:52:34I didn't want to fight.
00:52:34I really didn't.
00:52:36I,
00:52:37and I didn't need to lock her on the balcony all night.
00:52:39I just forgot.
00:52:41What?
00:52:42You locked her on the balcony
00:52:44all night?
00:52:47Nora,
00:52:47what the heck happened?
00:52:50You locked her on the balcony
00:52:51all night?
00:52:54Nora,
00:52:55what the heck happened?
00:52:58Mr. Collins.
00:52:59It's true.
00:53:01I found Mrs. Collins
00:53:02locked out on the balcony
00:53:04all night.
00:53:06You're always ruining everything.
00:53:07Nora!
00:53:08Get out.
00:53:09I don't want to hear you anymore.
00:53:11Nora!
00:53:12She was unconscious from the cold,
00:53:14so I took her to the hospital.
00:53:20What do you have to say to yourself?
00:53:22I didn't mean to.
00:53:23Mommy was nagging me,
00:53:24so I pushed her all up to the balcony
00:53:26and locked the door.
00:53:28I just need her to be quiet.
00:53:29Look, Nora,
00:53:31your mom nags
00:53:32because she loves you.
00:53:34But locking her out is dangerous.
00:53:36Look what happened.
00:53:37She ended up in the hospital.
00:53:39I'm really sorry.
00:53:41I messed up.
00:53:42That's why Zoe wouldn't come home.
00:53:44She must have been holding a grudge all along.
00:53:47We're apologizing to your mother.
00:53:48Do you understand?
00:53:50If I apologize to her,
00:53:52will she come back?
00:53:56She will.
00:53:58What's with the panic?
00:54:00This isn't me.
00:54:01Zoe loves us.
00:54:02She'll come around.
00:54:06So is this where Mommy's staying now?
00:54:09According to Luke's intelligence.
00:54:14You're here.
00:54:16Mommy.
00:54:17Zoe.
00:54:19Cut this out.
00:54:21Come home with us.
00:54:28Mommy, open the door.
00:54:31Don't be mad at me anymore.
00:54:32Zoe, stop being petty.
00:54:34I know you're mad
00:54:35Nora locked you out all night,
00:54:36but she's just a kid.
00:54:37It was an accident.
00:54:38Are you seriously this upset?
00:54:44Carter.
00:54:46Unbelievable.
00:54:48Still so arrogant after all these years.
00:54:50Just like now,
00:54:51you don't know what I've been through.
00:54:53And you don't know half the pain
00:54:55that you've caused me.
00:54:57Do not come back here.
00:54:58Ever.
00:55:04What does she mean by that?
00:55:06Has she been hurt again?
00:55:10Mr. Collins,
00:55:10I found Mrs. Collins' record.
00:55:12Turns out,
00:55:12besides the hypothermia,
00:55:14she also had a drowning incident.
00:55:17Here's everything on Mrs. Collins.
00:55:18She showed up a month ago
00:55:19with hypothermia,
00:55:20and then more recently,
00:55:21a near drowning.
00:55:23Docs say she'd been in the water for hours.
00:55:25She's still recovering from it all.
00:55:34No way.
00:55:36She knows how to swim.
00:55:38And she's the one
00:55:38who pushed Ashley in.
00:55:40For a damn necklace.
00:55:43Mr. Collins,
00:55:43if she really could swim,
00:55:44she wouldn't have been out there that long.
00:55:45Docs say that if Ethan West
00:55:46hadn't gotten there in time,
00:55:48she wouldn't have made it.
00:55:50Does that mean Ashley's lying?
00:55:52Find out everything you can
00:55:53about Ashley Grant.
00:55:55Now.
00:56:11What's wrong?
00:56:13Everything okay?
00:56:15It's...
00:56:16It's nothing.
00:56:18Carter and Nora
00:56:20came by yesterday.
00:56:22I don't know how they found out
00:56:23that I live here.
00:56:25What'd they want?
00:56:26Begging for me to come home,
00:56:28as usual.
00:56:35Don't.
00:56:37Zoe,
00:56:39please,
00:56:39do not listen to them.
00:56:42I can't lose you again,
00:56:45because...
00:56:48I love you.
00:56:53I know you're going through
00:56:57a bit of a rough patch right now,
00:56:58and maybe you're not ready to date,
00:57:02but...
00:57:03I needed to tell you this.
00:57:05You have my heart.
00:57:14Ethan.
00:57:16I promise,
00:57:18once the divorce is final
00:57:20between Carter and I,
00:57:21I'll think about this.
00:57:23About us.
00:57:33Thanks, Zoe.
00:57:35I'm not going anywhere.
00:57:37Take as much time as you need.
00:57:40I'll be right here when you're ready.
00:57:47Mr. Collins,
00:57:49found some dirt on Ashley.
00:57:50Turns out she worked at the same hotel
00:57:52where you got drugged years ago.
00:57:55Nine years ago,
00:57:56she was in college,
00:57:57and she spotted you
00:57:58sitting alone at the bar.
00:57:59When you stepped away,
00:58:00she spiked your drink
00:58:01to make a move on you.
00:58:02Good thing you ran into
00:58:02Mrs. Collins instead.
00:58:03It didn't go down
00:58:04like she planned.
00:58:05What?
00:58:06The owner spilled everything.
00:58:08Nine years back,
00:58:08I actually paid them off
00:58:09to keep quiet,
00:58:10to stop their offer.
00:58:12She's the real creep here,
00:58:13Mr. Collins.
00:58:14She was the one plotting
00:58:15to get you into bed.
00:58:19This can't be real.
00:58:21All this time,
00:58:21I was hating the wrong person.
00:58:23Nine years.
00:58:24I never gave her a second glance.
00:58:27And all along,
00:58:28I was blaming the wrong person.
00:58:34Ashley,
00:58:35this is all your fault.
00:58:37Luke,
00:58:38bring her to me.
00:58:40Time to settle this once and for all.
00:58:54Hmm.
00:58:56Having Luke drag me over this late?
00:58:58Is Carter looking for
00:58:59some late-night action?
00:59:02Too bad I didn't slip
00:59:02into my sexiest lingerie.
00:59:06Explain this.
00:59:07Now.
00:59:10Carter,
00:59:11where did you get this picture?
00:59:13I, uh,
00:59:15this is some kind of misunderstanding.
00:59:17This is,
00:59:18I,
00:59:19I,
00:59:20Bullshit.
00:59:21Luke dug up the whole story.
00:59:24Ashley Grant,
00:59:25it was you who drug me
00:59:26nine years ago.
00:59:28It was you who drug me
00:59:29nine years ago.
00:59:31No,
00:59:32no,
00:59:32no.
00:59:33You know how much
00:59:34I love you.
00:59:37All these years,
00:59:37I hated Zoe for nothing.
00:59:39All my rage.
00:59:41All because I got played
00:59:42to think
00:59:44the whole time
00:59:45that the real comfort
00:59:47was right under my nose.
00:59:49I can't wrap my head around it.
00:59:54keep up the lies.
00:59:56I'll make you talk.
00:59:58The Collins family
00:59:58has ways of getting answers.
01:00:02Yeah.
01:00:03The big bad
01:00:04Collins heir.
01:00:06Such a big shot.
01:00:07I was hooked
01:00:08the minute I laid eyes on you.
01:00:10So I drugged you.
01:00:11And I set the whole thing up.
01:00:14And all of it,
01:00:15all of it just gift wrapped you
01:00:16for that bitch Zoe.
01:00:18Why did she get to marry you?
01:00:19I loved you the most.
01:00:21But no,
01:00:21no,
01:00:21she,
01:00:22she got your bed.
01:00:23She got your kid,
01:00:24a damn daughter
01:00:24who ties you down.
01:00:26That,
01:00:26that should have been me.
01:00:27That's not fair.
01:00:27I should have been
01:00:28Mrs. Collins.
01:00:29You're insane.
01:00:30Yeah.
01:00:32I'm insane.
01:00:34I became Nora's teacher
01:00:35to get close to you.
01:00:37I used her.
01:00:39It's a piece of cake.
01:00:40You all despised Zoe so much.
01:00:43All I had to do
01:00:44were plant a couple of whispers
01:00:46and bam,
01:00:47you dumped her like trash.
01:00:50A day at the pool.
01:00:52She snatched the necklace
01:00:53and I just wanted the gift
01:00:54you gave me back.
01:00:55She tried to drown me.
01:00:57You did that on purpose
01:00:58to say Zoe up.
01:00:59Duh.
01:01:01I made a bet with her
01:01:02to see which one of us
01:01:03her family would save.
01:01:05I grabbed her hand
01:01:06and I acted like
01:01:08she was trying to take
01:01:08the necklace
01:01:09and then I pulled us
01:01:09both under.
01:01:12And you actually saved me.
01:01:15You didn't let me down.
01:01:16You should have seen
01:01:17the look on her face
01:01:18while she was stuck
01:01:19in that pool.
01:01:21Priceless.
01:01:25Shame you didn't catch it.
01:01:28I can't believe
01:01:28I let a snake
01:01:29like you near Nora.
01:01:31Near us.
01:01:33And I let you hurt Zoe.
01:01:34How hilarious.
01:01:36You and Nora
01:01:37let me get away
01:01:38with everything.
01:01:39Again and again.
01:01:41You let me take
01:01:42Zoe's place.
01:01:43Luke!
01:01:44Get her out of here.
01:01:46I don't want her
01:01:47stepping foot
01:01:47in this country again.
01:01:49Ever.
01:01:51Zoe will never
01:01:52come back to you.
01:01:53Never!
01:02:00No way.
01:02:03Zoe loved me.
01:02:05She put up
01:02:06with my bullshit
01:02:07for nine years.
01:02:08She's never even
01:02:09pushed for a divorce.
01:02:11If I just say sorry
01:02:13really mean it
01:02:15she'll come back
01:02:17if she has to.
01:02:20No.
01:02:21No.
01:02:21No.
01:02:23No.
01:02:27Zoe, please
01:02:28just listen to me.
01:02:29We're done.
01:02:30Get out now.
01:02:31I'm calling security.
01:02:33No, Zoe, listen.
01:02:41So this is what
01:02:42it felt like
01:02:42that night
01:02:43on the balcony.
01:02:46If I freeze out
01:02:47of here all night
01:02:47too
01:02:48maybe you'll
01:02:49have to forgive me.
01:02:53Now
01:02:54and then
01:02:54push the gate
01:02:55with me.
01:02:55Okay?
01:02:56Yeah.
01:02:56That was fun though, huh?
01:03:12Zoe.
01:03:12Wait, seriously?
01:03:14You that desperate
01:03:15for the next guy?
01:03:17What are you doing here?
01:03:18Why shouldn't I be here?
01:03:19I'm waiting for my wife.
01:03:23You.
01:03:24No wonder you
01:03:25would cooperate
01:03:25with me,
01:03:26Ethan West.
01:03:27You're trying to make
01:03:28a play for my wife?
01:03:29Tough luck.
01:03:30She's still mine.
01:03:32Carter,
01:03:33we're officially
01:03:34divorced as of today.
01:03:35Stop saying things
01:03:36just to piss me off.
01:03:37Seriously?
01:03:38You couldn't even
01:03:39bother to glance
01:03:39at what you signed
01:03:40over a month ago?
01:03:42See, that's
01:03:42your arrogance.
01:03:44You never
01:03:45appreciated anything
01:03:46that I gave you.
01:03:47Well, fine.
01:03:49That's the last thing
01:03:50you'll ever get
01:03:50from me.
01:04:04We're officially
01:04:05divorced as of today.
01:04:09What the hell is it?
01:04:13Come on.
01:04:14Come on.
01:04:29It was from that time when...
01:04:34Sign this.
01:04:35I screwed this up.
01:04:39Why didn't I even look at it?
01:04:41You can go and find a new wife now.
01:04:44Carter and I are done.
01:04:47Carter.
01:04:49Unbelievable.
01:04:50Still so arrogant after all these years.
01:04:52Just like now.
01:04:53You don't know what I've been through.
01:04:55And you don't know half the pain that you've caused me.
01:05:06I ended it.
01:05:08I ate the rest of the way and didn't even know it.
01:05:12No.
01:05:14I'm not the voice.
01:05:15You know, I'm going to go down there right now and pull the papers.
01:05:18I'm calling the whole thing off.
01:05:20It's tough time.
01:05:21Mr. Collins.
01:05:23This just came in from the courthouse.
01:05:27No.
01:05:29No.
01:05:31No.
01:05:36No.
01:05:40No.
01:05:42No.
01:05:42No.
01:05:43No.
01:05:52No.
01:06:05No.
01:06:05No, we're not.
01:06:09Nora, we'll go together.
01:06:11We'll apologize.
01:06:13Beg her to come back.
01:06:14She's too self-honored.
01:06:16She loves us too much to ever really leave.
01:06:29Ladies and gentlemen, the Nobel Prize ceremony will begin at this time.
01:06:33Well, our distinguished nominees, please, make your way down to your seats.
01:06:38Zoe, good luck.
01:06:40When I lose, we'll be right here cheering you on.
01:06:49Zoe, I've searched everywhere for you.
01:06:52I finally tracked you down here.
01:06:54I get it now.
01:06:55I know what you've been through.
01:06:58Everything.
01:06:59I'm so sorry.
01:07:02Please forgive me.
01:07:04Mommy, I'm sorry.
01:07:06Please, please come home.
01:07:08I swear I'll never play with Miss Ashley again.
01:07:11I promise.
01:07:14Please don't give up on us.
01:07:16Just give us one more chance.
01:07:20Just give us one more chance.
01:07:23You're blocking me from my prize.
01:07:26You?
01:07:27You're receiving a prize?
01:07:29And the Nobel Prize in Medicine goes to Dr. Zoe and her team.
01:07:45What an incredible honor.
01:07:47I'd like to thank the Institute Director and my dear friend, Selena.
01:07:51I'd also like to thank my family, Ethan and Mia.
01:07:56Without you, I wouldn't be here.
01:07:58The honor is ours.
01:07:59Thank you all so much.
01:08:07Aren't we mommy's family?
01:08:12Congratulations.
01:08:13I love you.
01:08:16It's too late to apologize.
01:08:19You've been durst.
01:08:29You're passed.
01:08:30You
