Short filmTranscript
00:00:01I'm Leonie, and I'm seven. The whole town of Oakhaven thinks I'm cursed. I haven't eaten all day. I just
00:00:11stared at the black bread in my aunt's hand.
00:00:21And she whipped me bloody with a thorn in vine. What are you looking at? I gave you a soup
00:00:28last, and you still steal food! You! Good-for-nothing leech! Aunt Grace slammed the heavy farm tool right onto
00:00:38me. Stop playing dead! If you don't finish before sunset, forget about dinner!
00:00:42My hands are covered in cuts, and the broken blisters sting interribly. But I have to work, or I'll be
00:00:50thrown out into the wild.
00:00:53Under the scorching sun, I starved and dragged myself to the field. Passing villagers just pointed and whispered.
00:01:00They said Aunt Grace kept all my dad's military pension from the war, but they only pitied me in secret.
00:01:06No one dared to help.
00:01:07Look at the poor thing. Grace is an absolute monster. She spreads rumors that Leonie is the cursed child who
00:01:14brought the dust storms. Good lord, it breaks my heart.
00:01:18Just then, Mrs. Hannon showed up. She's the meanest, greediest woman in town.
00:01:24Oh, look at this! She just snatched people's seeds. Dirt in Oak Haven is growing its own seeds! Since you
00:01:30don't want them, I'll take them.
00:01:31Ada! You wicked hag! Stealing our seeds? Have you no shame? You dropped them them yourself, and now you're framing
00:01:40me?
00:01:40Mrs. Hannon raised her tool looking so fierce. She scared them away. Mrs. Hanson looked like a wicked witch. Everyone
00:01:48was scared of her.
00:01:49Back off! Don't even think about stealing my seeds! And so was I.
00:01:52I'm sorry, Mrs. Hanson. I'll move over there.
00:01:56But I couldn't run. I had to finish Aunt Grace's work.
00:02:02The sun felt like it was burning a hole in my head. I couldn't hold on anymore.
00:02:08Everything went black, and I crashed into the mud.
00:02:15Hey! You wretched girl!
00:02:29Cold water trickled down my cracked lips. I thought I'd die in that dry mud.
00:02:35But the one who saved me was the meanest, scariest woman in town, Mrs. Hanson.
00:02:57We were so tired of putting this in the dark side.
00:02:58I thought I was the last one who did at the time.
00:02:59The sky was sometimes been Tuesday, we went to hell from the summer.
00:02:59I was so tired of the rain.
00:03:00I thought I was too tired of the rain.
00:03:01And I thought I was just right by the sun.
00:03:01That was the sun being here.
00:03:01This summer will be very successful.
00:03:01The dust would be very helpful.
00:03:02I thought I'm the sun for the sun.
00:03:06We were too late in the sun.
00:03:09But you didn't really know it.
00:03:10Mrs. Hansen, you dropped your bread.
00:03:13It fell on the ground. I don't want it. It's yours now.
00:03:17I knew she left it just to save me.
00:03:20I held on to that muddy bread tight and prayed,
00:03:22kind people like Mrs. Hansen deserve a reward from God.
00:03:26Right then, Mrs. Hansen accidentally kicked a pile of dead roots,
00:03:30and hidden inside was a massive, golden, dripping wild honeycomb.
00:03:40Mrs. Hansen took her lucky find home.
00:03:43She wanted to save the precious honey for her sick oldest son.
00:03:48Mother, this is too precious.
00:03:50You work so hard every day. You should have it.
00:03:55Are you trying to infuriate me?
00:03:57Arthur can barely breathe from his coughing.
00:04:00Do you want him to meet his mather early?
00:04:03Miss Ella, her second daughter-in-law, is super selfish.
00:04:08Her eyes lit up when she saw the honey, just like a hungry wolf.
00:04:16Arthur's minor lungs are already rotting. It's a waste to give it to him.
00:04:19I'm carrying your only grandson. He needs the nutrition way more.
00:04:27Stop!
00:04:28Mrs. Hansen and Miss Martha stormed out in a rage.
00:04:32But right as she crossed the threshold,
00:04:34Mrs. Hansen tripped over a dark figure in the corner.
00:04:38Curled up in the freezing corner was a ragged, bloody figure.
00:04:43It was me.
00:04:44My God, Leoneni!
00:04:46Why are you covered in blood out here?
00:04:51Since I didn't finish the work,
00:04:53my aunt whipped me bloody and threw me out.
00:04:56Turns out, under all that yelling,
00:04:58Mrs. Hansen's had the only kind heart in town.
00:05:03Grace is a wicked, heartless witch!
00:05:05What a bastard!
00:05:09Why did you come to my house anyway?
00:05:12Out of all the houses in the village,
00:05:13you were I and my honey, weren't you?
00:05:15No, Mrs. Hansen.
00:05:17It's because I know you're a good person.
00:05:26Don't be scared, Leonie.
00:05:28Stay with us tonight and I'll take you back in the morning.
00:05:30Oh my gosh!
00:05:31Mrs. Martha let me stay?
00:05:33Is this real?
00:05:34No!
00:05:35I don't agree!
00:05:36Get out!
00:05:37But Miss Ella called me a free loner.
00:05:40Grabbed me by the neck and tried to throw me out to the wolves.
00:05:43It hurts!
00:05:45Mrs. Hansen, help me!
00:05:46Please don't throw me out!
00:05:49I'll do anything!
00:05:50I struggled in despair, wanting so badly to live.
00:05:53Right then, a massive 200-pound wild boar charged like crazy
00:05:58and smashed itself to death against the courtyard wall.
00:06:06Because of the famine, everyone in town only ever ate hard black bread.
00:06:11But tonight we had delicious roast pork.
00:06:13Sweet Miss Martha gave me the best piece of meat.
00:06:16I didn't want to eat it.
00:06:18I wanted to repay Mrs. Hansen for keeping me warm.
00:06:21But just as she went to take her first bite,
00:06:25something weird happened.
00:06:27Get lost, you begging little stray!
00:06:29You don't belong here!
00:06:46Miss Ella, I'm sorry.
00:06:49I won't eat it.
00:06:50You can have it all.
00:06:51I don't know why, but Miss Ella bites into a bone and knocks her teeth out.
00:06:55Her mouth is full of blood.
00:06:59Miss Ella is furious she didn't get to eat the meat.
00:07:02But there's nothing she can do.
00:07:03She just leaves in a rage.
00:07:12Leon, you are a good girl.
00:07:16It's morning.
00:07:17Miss Martha takes me home.
00:07:19As soon as we reach the gate,
00:07:20I see Aunt Grace throwing all my things out.
00:07:23She's kicking me out right in front of all the neighbors.
00:07:25Flash out!
00:07:26Don't bring bad luck into our house!
00:07:28She says my dad is dead and the military won't send any more subsidies.
00:07:41Auntie, please don't kick me out.
00:07:43I'll work harder.
00:07:45I won't eat.
00:07:46I won't sleep.
00:07:47I'm begging you!
00:07:49Get lost!
00:07:50You cursed brat!
00:07:51You killed your own father!
00:07:53Stay away from us!
00:07:55Aunt Grace wants to kick me out.
00:07:57I cry and hug her leg,
00:07:59terrified that Dad won't find me when he comes back.
00:08:02She heartlessly kicks me away,
00:08:04grabs a thorny stick,
00:08:05and whips me hard on the back.
00:08:07I run out of the house into the cornfield,
00:08:09and I run and run.
00:08:16Miss Martha rushes over to protect,
00:08:18but Aunt Grace violently shoves her away.
00:08:20Back off!
00:08:21Mind your own business.
00:08:37Take this dead man's trash and go straight to hell!
00:08:45Dad!
00:08:48Even with the glass cutting my fingers and blood pouring out,
00:08:51I desperately gather the pieces.
00:08:53I have to put the photo back together.
00:08:58Stop it!
00:09:01Stop it!
00:09:02A thunderous roar really comes from the back of the crowd.
00:09:12Stop it!
00:09:14Stop it!
00:09:14The thunderous roar shocks everyone.
00:09:17The burly Sheriff Harry violently shoves my aunt away.
00:09:21He drops to one knee in the mud and lifts my bloody body.
00:09:25Mr. Carter, tell me my dad isn't dead.
00:09:27They're just lying to me, right?
00:09:29I beg him in despair,
00:09:31but looking at my mangled hands,
00:09:33Mr. Carter painfully closes his eyes.
00:09:36In that moment,
00:09:37the last bit of hope in my heart
00:09:39completely dies.
00:09:41Dad really isn't coming back.
00:09:46Leone is the child of a hero!
00:09:49How dare you treat her like this!
00:09:50She's a jinx!
00:09:52I won't let her pass her bad luck to my son!
00:09:54She's getting out of my house today!
00:09:56Aunt Grace doesn't just want to kick me out.
00:09:59She wants to steal the farm and house Dad left me.
00:10:02And my own Uncle Thomas just guiltily hides behind his wife,
00:10:06not even daring to look at me.
00:10:08My wife is right.
00:10:10We have a son to raise too.
00:10:12Mr. Carter takes off his hat and humbly begs the villagers
00:10:16to each chip in a little food to raise me together.
00:10:19But those neighbors,
00:10:21who once received favors from my dad,
00:10:24all make excuses about having no extra food.
00:10:27They even suggest sending me to the workhouse in the city.
00:10:31In that moment,
00:10:32I feel like a dirty rag tossed away by the world.
00:10:36With red eyes, Mr. Carter drags me toward his carriage.
00:10:40I click frantically,
00:10:42digging my nails deep into the dirt,
00:10:44her face covered in blood and tears.
00:10:46No! I don't want to go to the workhouse!
00:10:47I want to wait for Dad right here!
00:10:50Please don't send me away!
00:10:53Just as I'm about to be stuffed into the carriage,
00:10:56I see a skinny but determined figure burst through the crowd.
00:11:00It's Miss Martha.
00:11:01Enough!
00:11:03Nobody is taking her away!
00:11:04I'm going to adopt Leonie!
00:11:06She snatches me back,
00:11:08ignoring everything else,
00:11:10and holds me tight in her warm embrace.
00:11:18I hide in Miss Martha's warm arms like a drowning cat.
00:11:22Even though Mr. Carter sighs and says the workhouse will feed me,
00:11:26I still grip Miss Martha's clothes tightly.
00:11:29She's the last bit of light I can hold onto.
00:11:34Miss Martha,
00:11:36I'll be good.
00:11:37I'll eat less and work more from now on.
00:11:40I promise to treat Leonie like my own child.
00:11:43As long as I have a bite to eat, she won't starve.
00:11:46How bizarre.
00:11:47Someone actually wants to raise this jinx.
00:11:50Martha, I suggest you prepare a coffin for your sick husband first.
00:11:54Right then, Miss Ella, heavily pregnant, suddenly stormed out.
00:11:58Martha, are you insane?
00:12:00She's just a freeloading jinx.
00:12:03Where on earth do we have the money to raise a stray?
00:12:05Everyone is saying Mrs. Hanson will kick me out.
00:12:09Martha, your family has no extra money or food either.
00:12:12Your mother-in-law will probably just throw her out again tomorrow.
00:12:17You gutter rats!
00:12:19Is talking trash behind people's backs all you're good for in this life?
00:12:23Mrs. Hanson shows up with a dark scowl.
00:12:27Everyone expects her to throw me back into the wild.
00:12:29But the next second, a crisp slap echoes out and the whole yard falls dead silent.
00:12:42You idiot.
00:12:44Don't think being pregnant makes you untouchable.
00:12:46How dare you come out here spewing lies.
00:12:49Now, get your ass back home now.
00:12:58Taking Lee and Ian was my call.
00:13:01Anyone else got something to say?
00:13:03I'll shatter your bones with this pole.
00:13:07Mrs. Hanson's words hit like a bombshell.
00:13:10She's actually taking me.
00:13:12Turns out, even in this freezing world,
00:13:15someone is willing to face the backlash for a jinx like me.
00:13:19Ada, you've been a cheap shooter your whole life.
00:13:22You hoard rusty nails.
00:13:24But now you're raising a stray?
00:13:26They're dirt poor.
00:13:28Bet they'll trade her for rations.
00:13:30She's a hero's kid.
00:13:31You'll rot in jail for this.
00:13:33Cowards.
00:13:34When Officer Harry begged for food, it was crickets.
00:13:37Now I step up and suddenly you've all got an opinion.
00:13:40You want her?
00:13:41Take her.
00:13:42No?
00:13:42Then shut your mouths.
00:13:46Listen up, Leonie.
00:13:47You'll be cold, hungry, and working your fingers to the bone.
00:13:51Can you handle that?
00:13:53I can.
00:13:54I'll wash clothes, gather wood, and take care of Mr. Arthur.
00:13:58When I'm older, I swear I'll make it up to you.
00:14:01All right, then.
00:14:02From now on, I'm your grandma, and Martha is your mom.
00:14:07Grandma.
00:14:10Mom.
00:14:11Mom.
00:14:13Not so fast.
00:14:14You want the kid?
00:14:16You owe me rations for my trouble.
00:14:18Are you crazy, Grace?
00:14:19You just refused to take her.
00:14:21You can't shake Ada down for food now.
00:14:23The orphanage is free.
00:14:25But a private adoption?
00:14:29That's a deal.
00:14:30Five pounds of premium flour.
00:14:32Not an ounce less, and she stays put.
00:14:43I was terrified Mrs. Hanson would back out.
00:14:46Five pounds of flour just for me?
00:14:48That's a whole month's worth of bread for a family.
00:14:50Fine.
00:14:51Deal.
00:14:51What?
00:14:53Ada actually agreed?
00:14:55We're writing a contract to cut all ties right here.
00:14:58From this moment on, Leon has nothing to do with you two animals.
00:15:02Dead or alive, we go our separate ways.
00:15:06Fine by me.
00:15:07Who wants this jinx anyway?
00:15:08Thomas, go write up the contract.
00:15:14Just as Aunt Grace smugly carries the flour inside, she trips over nothing.
00:15:20The flour she traded me for is completely blown away by the wind.
00:15:50God is watching.
00:15:52God is watching.
00:15:53Leonie, let's go home.
00:15:54For the first time, the cramped cabin feels warm from the fire.
00:15:58Mrs. Hanson curses the whole time, calling the thick wool blanket Miss Martha spent three months
00:16:04knitting a piece of junk, but she toss it right into my arms.
00:16:08This junk is stiff and stinky.
00:16:10Hurry up and make a bed for this unlucky brat, and don't get my floor dirty.
00:16:16Grandma Ada calls that beautiful wool blanket junk, but she has sick Mr. Arthur tuck me in with it.
00:16:24In this moment, I finally have a home.
00:16:28Mr. Arthur tells me to call him dad.
00:16:38He says until my real dad comes back, he'll protect me with his life.
00:16:42I'm finally not an unwanted kid anymore.
00:16:50Good lord.
00:16:53How could that wicked woman do this?
00:16:55Martha, go sell my wool coat.
00:16:59Use the money to build up her strength.
00:17:01To buy me meat.
00:17:02Dad even wants to sell his winter coat.
00:17:05Grandma slams the table and stops him.
00:17:07Because without it, dad won't survive the winter.
00:17:10Mom cries and says the doctor told them a natural hot spring could turn dad's health around.
00:17:15But in Oak Haven, where it hasn't rained in three years, that's impossible.
00:17:20Don't be scared, dad.
00:17:21I'll pray to the angels.
00:17:22You're going to get better.
00:17:26I pray to the angels with all my heart.
00:17:29I'd give up ten years of my life for dad's health.
00:17:32I run to the back hill, wanting to do more chores for the family.
00:17:37With a loud pop, I easily pull a deep-rooted stump right out of the ground.
00:17:43Then, a blast of hot, wet steam shoots into the sky like a giant dragon.
00:17:49Grandma! Mom! Come out quick! I broke the ground!
00:17:55Hearing my scream, Grandma Ad rushes over first.
00:17:59I think I broke the earth and caused a huge disaster.
00:18:04But when she touches the boiling water with trembling hands, she laughs and cries like a kid.
00:18:11It's hot! The water is hot! It's a natural hot spring!
00:18:37A hot spring!
00:18:38A hot spring! It's a real hot spring!
00:18:42Arthur, my son
00:18:44The doctor said a hot spring could save your lungs
00:18:47You're saved
00:18:48Mom hugs me tight and kisses my face in excitement
00:18:52She says I'm an angel sent by God
00:18:55It turns out I'm not unwanted trash
00:18:57I can be someone's salvation too
00:19:01But when I happily return to the yard
00:19:04I'm greeted by two icy faces
00:19:06Miss Ella and Aunt Grace are whispering together
00:19:10Their glares pierce my heart like poison swords
00:19:14What rotten luck
00:19:15We're already too poor to eat
00:19:17And now we have to share food with her
00:19:19Ella, I'm telling you
00:19:21Stay away from them
00:19:22That Leonae brings nothing but bad luck
00:19:30But remembering bad
00:19:32Spent all his money on medicine
00:19:34I can't bear to see this family tear itself apart over me
00:19:38Miss Ella
00:19:39Ella, please don't be mad
00:19:41I won't fight for anything
00:19:43I'll help take care of the baby
00:19:46And I won't eat the good food
00:19:49Liar!
00:19:50Are you gonna let her pass her bad luck to your son?
00:19:53Her curse will kill your son!
00:19:56Pete!
00:19:57Ah!
00:20:03Get lost!
00:20:04Don't touch me with your dirty hands!
00:20:16Aunt Grace screams that I'm a monster who kills families
00:20:21Pushing Miss Ella to attack me
00:20:23Just as I try to beg again
00:20:25Ella winds up and slaps me hard across the face
00:20:32My face burns like it's on fire
00:20:34But I don't cry
00:20:36Grandma Ada told me if I'm bullied and oppressed
00:20:40I have to fight back
00:20:41I have to fight back
00:20:42Leonae, you are a child of this house
00:20:44When you get bullied, you fight back
00:20:47Grandma helps me raise my hand and aim at Aunt Grace
00:20:50Who's waiting for a laugh
00:20:52The stone hits her shoulder dead on
00:20:55Ouch!
00:20:55My shoulder's hurt!
00:20:57Help!
00:20:57I watch Aunt Grace run away
00:20:59She used to seem like a giant fence to me
00:21:03But now, she looks like a panicked grey rat scurrying around
00:21:07Grandma Ada is like a massive tree shielding me from the storm
00:21:11She publicly announces she's cutting ties with Miss Ella
00:21:15Leona is my chosen granddaughter!
00:21:17She's no jinx!
00:21:18Mother!
00:21:19Your real grandson is right here!
00:21:20Arthur is a cripple, and Martha can't have kids!
00:21:23If you insist on keeping this jinx, we're cutting ties
00:21:26Fine, I agree
00:21:28Mom and Dad pull Grandma's sleeves
00:21:30Begging her not to act rashly
00:21:33But she firmly refuses
00:21:35As long as this toxic woman, Ella, is around
00:21:39Our family will never have a normal life
00:21:42I'm kicking this wicked woman out today
00:21:45Cutting ties is no big deal
00:21:48But get the best house, and the biggest part of the farm
00:21:52Done!
00:21:54You can have it!
00:21:55Just get out of my sight!
00:21:58Ella?
00:22:00Don't hesitate!
00:22:01Cut ties with them!
00:22:03And your husband's money will be all yours!
00:22:06Do you want Leonise to bring bad luck to you and your baby?
00:22:11Don't forget, her unlucky dad just died in the war
00:22:16My dad isn't dead
00:22:18He's coming back!
00:22:20He'll come back and make you pay!
00:22:22Stop dreaming!
00:22:24He was blown to ashes long ago
00:22:26You won't even find his bones!
00:22:29Leonise's bad luck will drag the whole town down!
00:22:32Just watch!
00:22:34Soon you won't even have mud to eat!
00:22:36I'm not a jinx!
00:22:38Grandma Ada says I brought good luck!
00:22:41You're a bad person!
00:22:43Get out of my house!
00:22:49Aunt Grace's laughter suddenly stops as the roar of an engine
00:22:53Where the steel monster
00:22:56Shatters the silence of the wasteland
00:22:58And traces backwards of us
00:23:00A car door opens
00:23:01And a tall man covered in metal steps out
00:23:04I don't even need to see his face
00:23:07The pounding in my blood give
00:23:09Gives me the answer
00:23:10Dad!
00:23:19The majestic maid decorated with metals
00:23:22Gives me a solemn salute
00:23:24I thought God heard my prayers
00:23:27And brought dad back
00:23:28But that cold purple heart
00:23:31Tells me
00:23:32I'll never feel his hug again
00:23:40Captain Leo protected our country with his life
00:23:42This honor belongs to him
00:23:44And to his only daughter, Leonie
00:23:47The major pulls out a thick paper bag
00:23:49Inside is $5,000 from my dad's military pension
00:23:54I don't know how much that is
00:23:56But I hear the adults saying
00:23:58It could buy a mountain of bread
00:24:00Covered in sugar and jam
00:24:03Aunt Grace and Uncle Thomas pop out of nowhere
00:24:06One second they want to throw me into the wild
00:24:08And the next they put on fake smiles
00:24:10Inside a dragging home
00:24:11Uncle Thomas grips my arm like an iron vis
00:24:15I know he doesn't want me
00:24:16He wants that blood money
00:24:20Grandma Ada acts like a lioness
00:24:23Protecting her cub
00:24:24And rips up my sleeve
00:24:25Those rotting frostbites and bruises
00:24:28Look so layering in the sunlight
00:24:29Look sir, living with these two heartless scumbags
00:24:32Leonie starves, freezes and gets beaten every single day
00:24:36It's absolutely heartbreaking
00:24:44You
00:24:46How dare you treat a hero's only daughter like an animal
00:24:52Aunt Grace is still lying
00:24:53She points at my bloody wounds
00:24:55And lies with a straight face that I fell while playing
00:24:58But I see the neighbors shaking their heads
00:25:00They all know it's not true
00:25:03Bullshit!
00:25:04I saw you buy new leather boots in the city with the military pay
00:25:07While you made this poor kid gnaw on spoiled potato peels in the snow
00:25:10Yeah!
00:25:11She even locked the kid in the barn to beat her
00:25:13We all heard the scream!
00:25:15The Major's face is as dark as a stormy sky
00:25:18He waves his white-gloved hand and orders their arrest
00:25:21Uncle Thomas is taken away
00:25:23But Aunt Grace avoids arrest because she has a baby to take care of
00:25:29Watching the jeep drive away
00:25:30I don't feel the thrill of revenge
00:25:33I just think that maybe justice really does come to this desolate life
00:25:39I thought with $5,000
00:25:41My new home would be safe
00:25:43I never expected trouble to come so fast
00:25:46Miss Ella bursts through the door
00:25:47And her stare at that pile of cash
00:25:49Is even scarier than Aunt Grace's
00:25:53I'm carrying the only heir to this family
00:25:56We should get half of that $5,000
00:25:58James keeps his head down
00:26:00For money
00:26:02He doesn't even dare look at his sick brother
00:26:05They aren't trying to steal money
00:26:06They're trying to steal my last memory of my dad
00:26:10Nobody is touching this money
00:26:12Including you
00:26:14From now on we live our own lives
00:26:16Get out of my house
00:26:18For me
00:26:19Grandma kicks her own son out of the house
00:26:22She rubs my head and says
00:26:25As long as she's here
00:26:27No one will touch a single hair on my head
00:26:35Grandma Ada locks the money in an iron box under the bed
00:26:39She tells me that money could buy lots of pretty clothes and candy
00:26:44But my dad traded his life for it
00:26:47So we can't waste a single penny
00:26:51Dad's gut-ranking coughs come from the back room
00:26:56He begs mom from his sickbed
00:26:58To stop worrying about him
00:27:00And to save the last bite of food for me
00:27:19The cracked earth in the blackwood forest looks like countless mouths laughing at our poverty
00:27:25Starving people have stripped away every chewable piece of tree bark in this hell hole
00:27:30Mom leans on her stick
00:27:32Wandering the wasteland in despair
00:27:34Just as mom is about to collapse
00:27:38I trip hard over a tree root
00:27:40In the flying dust
00:27:46I actually find a few heavy, dirty, weird-looking stones
00:27:53Mom says they're useless rocks
00:27:56And tells me to throw them away
00:27:58But right as she reaches out
00:28:00Something weird happens again
00:28:05The festwick dies on the spot
00:28:08And rolls right to mom's feet
00:28:10Aunt Grace called me a jinx
00:28:13But now
00:28:15God himself has delivered dinner to me
00:28:27Mom is finally smiling
00:28:29When she smiles
00:28:31The wrinkles around her eyes look like pretty flowers
00:28:34If good luck is real
00:28:37I want to give it all to the people who treat me well
00:28:42But this is just the beginning
00:28:44I actually dig up some lumpy white roots from the dirt that smell amazing
00:28:51Mom says they're wild mushrooms
00:28:53They smell so good
00:28:55I don't know what they are
00:28:58But mom says we can sell them for money
00:29:00So they must be good
00:29:03Golden grease bubbles in the pan
00:29:06The white mushrooms mom sliced
00:29:09Release an incredible mind-blowing smell in the heat
00:29:14Even bed-roan Papa Arthur can't help but sit up
00:29:23You're clearly an angel bringing good luck
00:29:26Yet they call you a witch-bringing disaster
00:29:28What a bunch of blind idiots
00:29:30But the smell brings trouble too
00:29:32Miss Ella bursts in
00:29:35Drooling so much it almost drips into our pot
00:29:38She points to the air in her belly
00:29:41And demands the biggest bowl of meat
00:29:45This time, Grandma Ada doesn't even look back
00:29:49The heavy, bloody meat-crawber in her hand
00:29:52Just flies across the room
00:29:53With Grandma here, no one can bully us
00:29:56Take one more step into my yard and I'll chop your feet off
00:29:59Get lost!
00:30:04This is the first time I've ever had a full stomach
00:30:06I don't have to shiver in a freezing haystack
00:30:09And no one is pulling my hair
00:30:11I eat the delicious chicken
00:30:14And the air smells like pure happiness
00:30:33Papa Arthur says
00:30:35His lungs feel warm and he can finally breathe easier
00:30:39Mom says those white mushrooms we found
00:30:42Will definitely sell for a good price
00:30:44If we can buy medicine
00:30:47Papa will be saved!
00:30:50The blowing yellow sand can't hide how run down the market is
00:30:54Mom and I huddle in a corner
00:30:56Carefully laying out those lumpy white roots
00:30:59I don't know it yet
00:31:00But these wild mushrooms are called white gold on the tables of rich city folks
00:31:05And then she started begging her cousin Mark
00:31:09She kept pulling on his sleeve and crying
00:31:13I'm sorry
00:31:14She wanted Mark Uncle to get Thomas out of jail
00:31:25Mark is impatiently trying to push her away
00:31:27Then he notices us in the corner
00:31:32A Aunt Grace blames me for all her tragedies
00:31:39Leone! You're the reason my life is ruined!
00:31:46Aunt Grace's face is uglier than dead bark in the Blackwood forest
00:31:52For the $5,000 she brought her bully cousin Mark
00:31:56Who works at the town hall
00:31:58They stare at Mom and me like starving wolves
00:32:04Mom and I guard our stall
00:32:06It's our only hope to buy Papa's medicine
00:32:14But Mark comes right up and kicks our basket over
00:32:19Mark yells like crazy in the market
00:32:21Framing us for selling deadly poisonous mushrooms
00:32:24Right in front of everyone
00:32:26He crushes the white mushrooms we worked so hard to find
00:32:29Just like stepping on trash
00:32:31Mark grabs the gray stones I found
00:32:33Calling us money hungry scammers
00:32:35With a loud bang he smashes the rocks onto the ground
00:32:39The sound of them breaking is the sound of my heart breaking
00:32:43The crowd believes Mark
00:32:45They point at us calling us shameless
00:32:48Their insults almost drown Mom and me
00:32:50We're not scamming anyone
00:32:54These really aren't poisonous mushrooms
00:32:56That's not true
00:32:58We're not lying
00:33:02Mark doesn't care about poisonous mushrooms at all
00:33:05He just wants the $5,000 Papa left us
00:33:09He threatens Mom like a snake
00:33:11Saying if we don't pay protection money
00:33:14He'll make us disappear from Oak Haven for good
00:33:17To protect my life-saving money
00:33:19Mom firmly rejects this hungry wolf
00:33:22But it brings devastating revenge
00:33:25Mark goes crazy
00:33:27He flips our stall and crushes the white mushrooms
00:33:30That could save Papa Arthur into mud
00:33:32I scream and pray for God to punish these bad people
00:33:36But all I get is Aunt Grace's piercing cacker
00:33:39You bad people
00:33:41God is watching
00:33:42He will definitely punish you
00:33:44She points at my nose
00:33:47Calling me a naive little idiot
00:33:49Saying even Jesus couldn't save us now
00:33:52Stop
00:33:57I follow everyone's gaze
00:33:59And see two men walking in from the crowd
00:34:02They dress completely differently from the townsfolk
00:34:05And they look incredibly distinguished
00:34:14What the hell are you blind idiots doing?
00:34:20The old man with glasses kneels in the mud
00:34:22Holding the crushed pieces
00:34:24His hands are shaking worse than dead leaves in autumn
00:34:27I can feel how angry and heartbroken he is
00:34:29At the time, I still didn't know
00:34:31Just how precious those crushed white mushrooms were
00:34:38You fool!
00:34:40These are top-grade white struffles
00:34:42That even the royal family pays a fortune to find
00:34:45And you crush them?
00:34:47Mark's face instantly drained of color
00:34:49Too terrified to speak
00:34:51Meanwhile, Mr. Sterling, with his leopard cane
00:34:54Slowly walks toward the gray stones Aunt Grace smashed
00:34:58In that moment, I think the sun fell into the stone
00:35:02Beneath the dull gray surface
00:35:04A dreamy, deep purple light shines out
00:35:07Mr. Sterling says
00:35:09It's an extremely rare, natural amethyst geog
00:35:12Mr. Sterling goes crazy
00:35:14He pulls out a thick stack of hundred-dollar bills
00:35:17Enough to buy half the town
00:35:19And shoves it into Mom's hands
00:35:20He says he'd give his entire fortune
00:35:23To buy all the trash stones I found
00:35:25Seeing things go bad
00:35:30Mark and Aunt Grace try to sneak away into the crowd like cowards
00:35:34But the two men in black suits grab them by the collars
00:35:38And throw them hard into a filthy, stinking mud puddle
00:35:46Mom's hands are shaking so much
00:35:49She can barely hold the heavy stack of cash
00:35:51She can't believe the rotten mushrooms and broken stones
00:35:55I casually picked up in the Blackwood Forest
00:35:58Are actually worth more than gold
00:36:00Mr. Sterling takes off his expensive top hat
00:36:04He says, I'm an angel blessed by God
00:36:07The villagers who used to point and gloss up
00:36:10Are all shocked silent by this massive fortune
00:36:14You just found these lying around?
00:36:17Good Lord, this child is absolutely a reincarnated angel
00:36:22Only someone blessed by God could have such unbelievable luck
00:36:25Mr. Sterling, I think we have an obligation
00:36:28To help this child get the compensation she deserves
00:36:31And make these scumbags face their punishment
00:36:34The well-dressed lawyer steps forward
00:36:37He calculates our damages at $3,500
00:36:41That's an astrosnomical price
00:36:43Enough to buy the whole town of Oakhaven
00:36:47Mark doesn't want to pay the compensation
00:36:50He tries to run towards a speeding coal train to hop on
00:36:54And escape
00:36:58The bodyguard quickly drags him back from the train
00:37:00And pins him in the mud
00:37:01He can't run anymore
00:37:03The sheriff arrives and tells Aunt Grace
00:37:05That if she doesn't get the money together in 48 hours
00:37:08She'll not only hand over Papa's farm that she stole
00:37:10But she'll also rot in jail for the rest of her life
00:37:20Late at night in Oakhaven
00:37:21The wind tears at the ground like a mad beast
00:37:23The old roof shakes
00:37:24The drafty windows creep
00:37:26But in the flickering light of the kerosene lamp
00:37:27Aunt Grace is scarier than the storm
00:37:29I found a picture today
00:37:30A man in a uniform
00:37:31I asked who he was
00:37:32She said it was nothing
00:37:34Just someone who used to live with
00:37:35The old roof shakes
00:37:36The drafty windows crank
00:37:39The $3,500 collection notice
00:37:43Chokes her like a noose
00:37:44Instead of repenting
00:37:46Aunt Grace just stares at the document with the red thumbprint
00:37:50Plotting to steal the blood-soaked duching money under Grandma Ada's bed
00:37:55Lightning flashes
00:37:56Lighting up Aunt Grace's soaked face
00:37:59She raises cold plizers
00:38:01Snips the wire fence
00:38:03And sneaks onto our farm
00:38:22It rains so hard that night
00:38:24The noise keeps me awake
00:38:26I get up for a drink of water
00:38:29Having no idea danger is so close
00:38:40The wind is so strong outside
00:38:44I'm afraid the rain will ruin the wood floor
00:38:46So I drag a big iron bucket over
00:38:49And force the window shut tight
00:38:51I think closing the window will keep the storm out
00:38:54But I don't notice the old frame is rotten
00:38:58The second I turn around
00:39:00Aunt Grace pries it open
00:39:10I don't know the window is broken
00:39:13And might fall if opened again
00:39:15Aunt Grace risks her life for that money
00:39:18She squeezes inside
00:39:20Scraping the skin right off her waist
00:39:25The metal clangs loudly in the dead of night
00:39:29Aunt Grace flails like a funny puppet
00:39:31Desperately trying to grab something to steady herself
00:39:35Please don't fall
00:39:36But she grabs a wobbly shell
00:39:46Grandma Ada taught me that quick live boils like a kettle when it hits water
00:39:52Aunt Grace screams so miserably
00:39:55But
00:39:57She wouldn't be hurt if she didn't sneak in through the window at midnight
00:40:05Aunt Grace screams
00:40:06Smashes through the back door
00:40:08And plunges into the terrestrial rain
00:40:10The quick line boils on her face
00:40:13The burning blinds her
00:40:14Making her stumble through the mud
00:40:19Even the farm dog avoids that stinky pit
00:40:23Aunt Grace used to call me a smelly beggar
00:40:26But now
00:40:27Even the skunk living in the pit is disgusted by her
00:40:31Aunt Grace crawls out of the cesspool
00:40:34Her mind still obsessed with the money
00:40:36When she finds the heavy, locked metal box in the junk pile
00:40:41Her burned eyes gleam scarier than the demons
00:40:44A locked box!
00:40:46The money must be inside!
00:40:57The smell of gunpowder overpowers the rain
00:41:01And Grandma Ada's furious shout
00:41:03Steve!
00:41:04Tears through the night
00:41:04Aunt Grace actually hits the gas through a hail of bullets
00:41:08In the pouring rain
00:41:11Aunt Grace laughs like a dying maniac in a speeding truck
00:41:20This 5,000s is all mine
00:41:22She hugs the metal box to her chest
00:41:24Thinking she holds all the wealth in the world
00:41:27And has finally beaten everyone
00:41:32Grandma Ada holds her shotgun
00:41:34Anxious to chase her
00:41:35I stand barefoot in the mud
00:41:38And gently tug her wet shirt to remind her
00:41:41Uncle Thomas told me before
00:41:42That whenever it storms
00:41:44The wooden bridge over there floods completely
00:41:54The truck in the storm is like a wild beast out of control
00:41:58I.E. Grace screams madly in the cab
00:42:01When she sees the river completely swallowing the bridge
00:42:04No! The bridge!
00:42:04She falls into total despair
00:42:05No! The bridge! Where's my bridge?
00:42:06Ah! Stop! Stop right now!
00:42:11The crash shatters the rain
00:42:13Aunt Grace doesn't die
00:42:15But she lands somewhere worse than hell
00:42:18Major Evans' military restricted zone
00:42:23Money
00:42:25My money
00:42:26A dozen black Thompson submachine guns
00:42:29Aim right at her head
00:42:31Major steps forward
00:42:33In his raincoat
00:42:34With a cold face
00:42:36I told you not to flee
00:42:38Where do you think you're driving, Ms. Grace?
00:42:47It's over
00:42:49It's all over
00:42:52The stench from the truck is more nauseating
00:42:55Than a rotting corpse in the black forest
00:42:57It's the smell of cesspooled water
00:43:00Mixed with Aunt Grace's weed
00:43:03Even as the MPs drag her into the mud
00:43:05She clings to the heavy metal box
00:43:08While Aunt Grace dreams of being rich
00:43:10Grandma Ada arrives with me on her roaring tractor
00:43:14Grandma looks at Aunt Grace in the mud
00:43:16And laughs with sheer contempt
00:43:18Because the real pension money rests safely under the Hanson family's bed
00:43:27Grandma Ada tells Major Evans the truth
00:43:30And he pries open the heavy padlock with a dagger
00:43:33With a loud clang
00:43:35Aunt Grace's dream shatters completely
00:43:48Stealing private property
00:43:50Go join your husband in prison
00:43:52Take her away
00:44:04My once arrogant aunt and uncle
00:44:07Now look like two cornered rabbits
00:44:10Facing their final judgment
00:44:14Grandma doesn't carry her scary shotgun today
00:44:18She puts me in a new lace dress
00:44:20And holds my hand
00:44:22Stepping into the light like a guardian angel
00:44:25Uncle Thomas' mental defenses completely break down
00:44:29And he roars at Aunt Grace
00:44:31Facing 20 years in prison
00:44:33He doesn't hesitate to sign his name
00:44:44The gavel bangs down hard
00:44:46The judge declares that the farm
00:44:49And all the wealth Dad left me
00:44:51Are finally back in my hands
00:44:53Now
00:45:00The judge usually looks so mean
00:45:03And everyone is scared of him
00:45:06But today
00:45:07He bends down and smiles at us
00:45:10Just like the chubby man in town
00:45:12Who loves giving kids candy
00:45:17Aunt Grace used to plug her nose
00:45:19Disgusted by the moldy barn smell on me
00:45:23But now
00:45:24She stinks so bad
00:45:26That even I have to turn my head
00:45:28And pinch my nose
00:45:30Remember that freezing barn
00:45:32You kicked Leonie into on that stormy day
00:45:35From today on
00:45:36That broken barn is yours
00:45:39The guards can't stand
00:45:40Aunt Grace's sour stench
00:45:42They drag her out
00:45:43And her screams echo through the hall
00:45:47The adults surround me
00:45:48Smiling and calling me
00:45:50A lucky little angel
00:45:51But I don't care
00:45:53All I know is that Grandma's hand
00:45:56Holding mine is big and warm
00:45:58And no one will ever force me
00:46:00Into a freezing barn again
00:46:04I used to think this dirt
00:46:06Could only grow hard rocks
00:46:07And starved bugs
00:46:09Only today do I realize
00:46:11It can grow so much wheat
00:46:13That looks like pure gold
00:46:17Grandma laughed so loudly today
00:46:23Good girl, look
00:46:24These are all gifts from God
00:46:26That neither of us notices
00:46:28Miss Ella staring at me
00:46:30She looks exactly like
00:46:32Aunt Grace used to
00:46:33When she wanted to hit me
00:46:34Miss Ella yells at James
00:46:36They want this most fertile land in town
00:46:39Miss Ella looks at me so fiercely
00:46:42As if she wants to rush over
00:46:44And eat me alive
00:46:52If that damn old hack
00:46:54Won't give it to us
00:46:55We'll just take it ourselves
00:46:57Take it?
00:46:57How?
00:46:58That land is in the name
00:46:59Of that little bastard Leonie
00:47:05Then we'll find a way
00:47:06To switch the deeds
00:47:08Greedy snakes can never fill
00:47:10Their bottomless pit of desire
00:47:12Blood ties don't bring family love
00:47:15They just become an excuse to steal
00:47:22Greedy James brings his dark secrets
00:47:25And knocks on the back door of power
00:47:27Just like a sewer rat
00:47:34I only learn later
00:47:35That there's a scary magic in the adult world
00:47:39If you secretly give the mayor a special gift
00:47:42Your wishes come true
00:47:47James uses tobacco and money to trade
00:47:50For the Fertilile farm under my name
00:48:04James
00:48:06Your appetite is way bigger than your dying brothers
00:48:23Power completely surrenders to money
00:48:28The mayor accepts James' gift
00:48:49Take it James
00:48:50With this requisition order
00:48:52That Fertile land is yours by sunrise tomorrow
00:49:12This morning a lot of people suddenly come to our farm
00:49:18It's James, Miss Ella, and the mayor
00:49:21They look really mean
00:49:23They use big adult words I don't understand
00:49:26I just see Grandma Ada shaking with anger
00:49:29Because they want to trade a barren wasteland
00:49:32For our golden wheat field
00:49:37Trade?
00:49:38James, do you think I'm an idiot?
00:49:40Not even weeds can grow on that land
00:49:42Don't waste your breath on her
00:49:44Quick, pull up the boundary markers
00:49:46And put ours in
00:49:47This is our land now
00:49:48Grandma nailed that marker herself
00:49:50When it falls
00:49:51My heart hurts so much
00:49:53You robbers!
00:49:55I'll fight you to the death!
00:49:58Those two guns are so, so close to Grandma's head
00:50:01For the first time
00:50:03I realize a hunting rifle isn't scary at all
00:50:05Mrs. Hanson, calm down
00:50:07Or we'll arrest you for obstructing justice
00:50:10No!
00:50:11Don't kill my Grandma!
00:50:12No!
00:50:13What's really scary
00:50:14Is when others point guns at us
00:50:23Just sign it, Mrs. Hanson
00:50:25You don't want this little girl watching you get taken away, do you?
00:50:28Grandma Ada looks at me crying in fear
00:50:32She closes her eyes
00:50:34And agrees to sign the contract
00:50:38I grip Grandma's clothes tight
00:50:40I'm worried she's in danger
00:50:42I see her eyes turn red
00:50:45And my heart aches
00:50:46But I don't know what to do
00:50:56You old hag!
00:50:58Take this unlucky little stray
00:51:00And get all my property right now!
00:51:02Go eat dirt in that rocky wasteland!
00:51:09We move to the place they call the rocky land
00:51:13There's nothing here but bare rocks
00:51:15And cold wind
00:51:19Grandma Ada is frowning so hard
00:51:28This year's harvest is totally ruined, sweetie
00:51:32We might starve
00:51:34I see how sad Grandma is
00:51:37And my heart feels like it's crushed by a rock
00:51:40But I don't want to make her sadder
00:51:42I remember Grandma Ada said
00:51:44As long as there is hope
00:51:45There's nothing to fear
00:51:47Don't worry, Grandma
00:51:48I can grow pretty flowers even in the rocks
00:51:50I just want to do something
00:51:52Even if it's just digging a little hole
00:51:55I believe my luck will definitely help us
00:51:59Right then, something weird happens
00:52:02The ground starts shaking violently
00:52:05I feel the rocks under my feet jumping like they're alive
00:52:08Danger!
00:52:09Leonis!
00:52:10Get out of the way!
00:52:16The ground shakes like a thousand wild horses running under my feet
00:52:21My feet go numb
00:52:23I shut my eyes tight thinking I really messed up
00:52:26And dug up a sleeping demon with my rusty little shovel
00:52:29I've never seen such a scary and awesome sight
00:52:33The black liquid shoots up so high and rains down
00:52:37Splashing all over me and Grandma
00:52:39This weird rain is black and stinky
00:52:42It sticks to my face and ruins my only clean dress
00:52:46I look at Grandma nervously
00:52:48Terrified she's going to blow up over this awful prank
00:52:52But I notice Grandma Ada isn't mad at all
00:52:55Her weathered face instantly twists into this extreme, almost crazy joy
00:53:01This isn't muddy water, it's crude oil!
00:53:03It's oil!
00:53:04Thank God we struck oil!
00:53:07I don't know what oil is, but I can taste Grandma's happy tears
00:53:12In this black rain, we hug each other so tight
00:53:19Not long after that black rain, a bunch of big shoots come to town
00:53:24They head straight for this rocky wasteland
00:53:27That even the devil wouldn't look twice at
00:53:42Congratulations, Mrs. Hanson
00:53:44Your granddaughter is a true lucky angel
00:53:48A bunch of guys in expensive suits step out of the cars
00:53:51They use weird gadgets to dig and measure all over the place
00:53:58Mr. Sterling!
00:53:59Initial surveys show the most massive, shallow oil field in the entire state
00:54:05Is hidden right under here!
00:54:07The value is immeasurable!
00:54:09I don't understand what they're saying
00:54:11But I see Mr. Sterling pull out a really big piece of paper
00:54:15With lots and lots of zeros on it
00:54:18Starting today, an oil company named after you is officially founded
00:54:22Congratulations, my little black gold Tycara
00:54:24In that moment, I feel like I'm dreaming
00:54:27Mr. Sterling calls me a black gold Tycoon
00:54:30I don't really get what that means
00:54:32But he tells me we'll never go hungry again
00:54:37Mr. Sterling tells me
00:54:39God rewards the good
00:54:41But also punishes the bad guys
00:54:43Who bully us without mercy
00:54:44Once I use this money to buy off the state senator
00:54:47I'll get out of this hell hole
00:54:50And be a real big shot in Washington
00:54:52And he sends the toughest lawyers and cops to find that evil mayor
00:54:57Those gentlemen in black suits burst right into that room full of lies
00:55:02Mr. Mayor, this is all the evidence of your corruption, bribery, and abuse of power
00:55:06You're under arrest
00:55:07Just like superheroes dropping from the sky in movies
00:55:11Seeing the bad guy get punished makes me feel so good
00:55:14This can't be happening
00:55:16Let go of me
00:55:16I can give you money
00:55:18Turns out, there really is justice in this world
00:55:25Aunt Ella and Uncle James stand on the fertile farm they stole
00:55:29They look at the rocky land they tossed away like trash
00:55:32Now swarming with rich people
00:55:34And they are going absolutely crazy with jealousy
00:55:37Damn it!
00:55:39That land was ours!
00:55:41We threw it away!
00:55:43At least we still have the best wheat field in town
00:55:45We'll strike it rich in the fall anyway
00:55:47That little bit of oil they have will probably dry up real soon
00:55:51Miss Ella is still dreaming of getting rich
00:55:54But she doesn't know that God's judgment never spares a greedy soul
00:55:59I see a huge dark cloud flying in
00:56:04As it gets closer, I realize it's not a cloud at all
00:56:08It's millions of gross bugs
00:56:21No!
00:56:24My wheat field!
00:56:25James' screams echo across the empty farm
00:56:28That golden wheat field is just completely eaten up by the bugs
00:56:36The bugs eat all the crops
00:56:38Miss Ellie kneels in the messy mud without a shred of dignity
00:56:42Like a soulless corpse
00:56:43Miss Ella cries so hard
00:56:46She probably doesn't get why God's bugs only ate the fertile wheat field they stole from us
00:56:51It's all gone!
00:56:53It's all gone!
00:56:55It's all gone!
00:56:55We're bankrupt!
00:56:56A lot of big machines I've never seen before arrive on this rocky land
00:57:07Mr. Sterling says they'll make us so much money I won't be able to spend it all in a lifetime
00:57:20So many people are here today and they're all cheering
00:57:24I'm so happy because Grandma Ida and I have new clothes on
00:57:28She takes my hand and we cut the red ribbon
00:57:34Grandma said flowers planted in rocks bloom brighter than any other
00:57:39Now, our harsh winter is finally over completely
00:57:48On this land, we live a peaceful and wealthy life
00:57:55But I don't know that while we smile in the sun
00:57:58A venomous snake in the dark is already eyeing us
00:58:03The news of the oil field attracts someone even greedier than a wild wolf
00:58:09Forced my downs are too low class
00:58:11All I need is to snatch Leone's custody
00:58:14And this oil field is mine
00:58:18For money and revenge, they sell Grandma Ada and me out
00:58:23Ada is vulgar and mentally unstable
00:58:30She carries a hunting rifle everywhere, has violent tendencies, and constantly abuses Leone
00:58:38Excellent! She's unfit to raise Leone. I'll be taking over her custody
00:58:45McClain files a petition to change guardianship at the court
00:58:50Shattering my peaceful life with Grandma Ada
00:58:55It's a rare, sweet moment
00:58:57But the screech of brakes shatters the peace
00:59:00Two bailiffs step out of the car and walk straight up to Grandma Ada
00:59:05Hello, Mrs. Hanson. We're from the city court
00:59:07Someone reported you for child abuse and is demanding you hand over Leone's custody
00:59:11Grandma Ada is stunned
00:59:13Once she snaps out of it, she loudly protests and swears she never abused any child
00:59:20I swear on my life, Grandma Ada is the best person in the world
00:59:24She has never abused me
00:59:27Sorry, we're just here to notify you
00:59:29Direct any questions to the hearing next Wednesday
00:59:31Until then, you are forbidden from transferring any assets under the girl's name
00:59:35But my promise is useless
00:59:37Because everything will be decided in court
00:59:41The hearing proceeds as scheduled
00:59:44For Grandma Ada and me, this isn't a fair trial at all
00:59:47It's a brutal, one-sided execution
00:59:49McClain hired top-turt lawyer Barry with serious cash
00:59:53While we could only find Mr. Sterling
00:59:55Mrs. Hanson, do you have any idea how to raise a multi-million dollar girl?
01:00:01Or is your only skill abusing people and feeding pigs?
01:00:04You!
01:00:05Lawyer Barry, you should know that you need to present evidence for your claims
01:00:09Of course, don't you worry about that
01:00:11Lawyer Barry uses fancy legal talk to paint Grandma Ada as a violent, ignorant village woman
01:00:18What's worse, the devil's accomplices take the stand
01:00:22Your Honor, I saw with my own eyes how Ada forced Leonie to sleep in the barn and eat scraps
01:00:30You two animals, shut up!
01:00:33Ella, you're crossing the line
01:00:35James, is this how you treat your own mother?
01:00:37They take every single horrific thing they did to me
01:00:41And pin it all on Grandma Ada, who loves me
01:00:44Order!
01:00:46If you dare to show contempt of court again
01:00:49I'll have the bailiffs throw you all in jail instantly!
01:00:52The judge has already been bought off by McClain
01:00:55He doesn't listen to a word you say
01:00:57The court leans towards revoking Ada's guardianship
01:01:01Transferring it to McClain's foundation
01:01:04And sending Leonine to a closed boarding school on the east coast
01:01:09A closed school means I'll be totally at McClain's mercy
01:01:13And our oil wealth will be completely swallowed up
01:01:16I won't go to school, I don't want to leave Grandma Ada
01:01:23Everyone holds their breath
01:01:25The judge is about to strip Grandma Ada of my custody
01:01:29Whatever is on that paper decides my fate
01:01:33The bad guy's wicked laughs drill into my ears
01:01:37Their dirty revenge is about to succeed
01:01:41Grandma Ada hugs me tight
01:01:43Completely desperate
01:01:45I glare at those monsters through my tears
01:01:48I absolutely can't let them take everything from me
01:01:54I see the massive chandelier crash down
01:01:57Smashing the briefcase next to the judge
01:02:02Countless papers fly everywhere
01:02:04Mr. Sterling grabs some key documents
01:02:07He announces to the courtroom
01:02:09That it's evidence of the judge taking bribes from the sickling
01:02:13The proof is solid
01:02:15All their dirty deals are exposed
01:02:18Despicable!
01:02:19They ganged up to take Leonie away
01:02:20But now it's all out in the open
01:02:22Their plot failed
01:02:23We're done for
01:02:24Mr. Sterling calls the police
01:02:27McClain's plot is completely ruined
01:02:30And Miss Ella and the others forget what they deserve
01:02:33McClain
01:02:36Your dirty money can buy a judge
01:02:38But it can't buy real justice
01:02:44The bribe judge is taken away by the police
01:02:48I finally return to Grandma Ada
01:02:50And the greedy James and Ella
01:02:52Become abandoned pawns
01:03:07Damn you Ada
01:03:09This isn't over
01:03:11McClain doesn't just let it go
01:03:13He finds the local mafia
01:03:15Ready to use violence
01:03:23Just when we think everything is peaceful again
01:03:26McClain's revenge hits fast
01:03:29Way beyond what any of us expected
01:03:32I'll go check it out
01:03:34I walk out with Grandma Ada and the others
01:03:37We see several cars without license cards
01:03:41Smash through the farm gate like mad bulls
01:03:44Completely blocking our escape
01:03:51They claim McClain sent them
01:03:53They threaten Grandma Ada to sell the oil field to them dirt cheap
01:03:56But she refuses to give in
01:03:58They only give us 10 minutes
01:04:00After 10 minutes
01:04:01They'll make their move
01:04:18Grandma Ada chooses to let Mom Martha hide me in the cellar
01:04:23While she faces the mafia head on
01:04:47Give me 10 minutes to think about it
01:04:54Give me 10 minutes to think about it
01:04:55Grandma pretends to give in
01:04:57Just to keep me safe
01:05:07Grandma Ada has already decided
01:05:11To fight the mafia to the end
01:05:13And Dad Arthur asks Sheriff Harry for backup
01:05:24The mobsters get ready to strike
01:05:28But Grandma Ada
01:05:32Is faster
01:05:36Dammit!
01:05:37They have guns!
01:05:38You scumbags want to steal my granddaughter's land?
01:05:42Get off my property right now
01:05:44Or I'll send you to hell!
01:05:51To protect me and our home
01:05:54Grandma Odd and Dad Arthur
01:05:56Get into a shootout with the mob
01:06:02But nobody knows that two greedy coyotes
01:06:06Are sneaking into our
01:06:08Defenseless backyard
01:06:23That bitch Martha took the little bastard in there
01:06:26This is our best chance
01:06:28Whether the mob or mother wins
01:06:30We're dead either way
01:06:32Catching Leonel is our only leverage
01:06:42The constant gunshots outside
01:06:44Make me super anxious
01:06:46Just then
01:06:47The cellar door suddenly opens
01:06:49Is it Grandma Ada
01:06:50And the others coming back?
01:06:52Grandma Ada
01:06:58It's you!
01:06:59Get out of here right now!
01:07:01My dear sister Martha
01:07:03That old hag Ada
01:07:05Is busy fighting the mob
01:07:06Let's see who comes to save you this time
01:07:08They'll want to kidnap me
01:07:10But Mom Martha
01:07:11Stands in front of me
01:07:12To protect me
01:07:18Stop fighting you little brat!
01:07:21You're our cash cow!
01:07:22Ella grabs me
01:07:23Clamping a towel
01:07:24Soaked in pungent chemicals
01:07:25Tightly over my nose and mouth
01:07:27Intense busyness
01:07:29Instantly pierces my brain
01:07:30Hurry up!
01:07:31Get her in the sack!
01:07:32We don't have much time!
01:07:33Grandma Ada and the others
01:07:35Hide in the cellar
01:07:36To dodge the mob
01:07:37But
01:07:41Martha, wake up!
01:07:46Mother Arthur
01:07:48James and Ella
01:07:50Took Leonese
01:07:53I wake up to find my hands tied to a rotting wooden post
01:07:56Ella and James are like wolves ready to devour me
01:07:59Once we get the money
01:08:00We'll throw you down an abandoned mineshaft to feed the rats!
01:08:04Let's go
01:08:05We should check the situation outside
01:08:08They leave
01:08:09And I'm all alone in the abandoned mine
01:08:11I'm so scared
01:08:13But I can't just do nothing
01:08:14They'll use me to threaten Grandma Ada
01:08:16I can't let them get away with him
01:08:18Thank God
01:08:19The lalt rope falls off on its own
01:08:23Is that firefly leading the way for me?
01:08:35The little bitch escaped!
01:08:37Miss Ella quickly notices I'm gone
01:08:39She and James are searching for me
01:08:45The harsh light flashes right past my feet
01:08:48I'm gonna be found
01:08:50What do I do?
01:08:51Save me, Grandma Ada
01:08:53Dad
01:08:56Grandma Ada and the others are trapped
01:08:59The mob is searching for us
01:09:02Grandma Ada and Dad Arthur
01:09:04Wait for Sheriff Harry
01:09:06But he doesn't show up
01:09:07Because the mob has him pinned down too
01:09:11It's all my fault
01:09:13I didn't protect Leonese
01:09:16Mom lost me
01:09:18And she feels incredibly guilty
01:09:24Let's take them down with us
01:09:30The mob finds Mom Martha
01:09:32And the others
01:09:42You're out of bullets, right?
01:09:46Say your prayers
01:09:48But right then
01:09:49A deafening roar interrupts Victor
01:09:58Who's this nosy bastard?
01:10:00You got a death wish?
01:10:08You got a death wish?
01:10:18Where is my daughter?
01:10:20Leo!
01:10:22Leonese real father!
01:10:27That tall man
01:10:28Like a god of war
01:10:30My father Leo
01:10:32Rushes to Grandma anxiously
01:10:34Asking where I am
01:10:37Grandma Ada blasts the venomous McLean's plant
01:10:40And Ella's shameless kidnapping
01:10:43Luckily
01:10:43Sheriff Harry arrives at the scene
01:10:45And quickly takes down the rest of the mobsters
01:10:51Mrs. Hanson
01:10:52Please forgive me for being late
01:10:53That mob sent people to block us
01:10:55Seeing my father alive
01:10:57Sheriff Harry is so shocked
01:10:59He can barely hold his gun
01:11:01My father explains
01:11:02He faked his death
01:11:03To carry out a top secret mission
01:11:05By the way
01:11:06My men saw Ella and James
01:11:08Heading toward the abandoned mine out west
01:11:10Thank you Harry
01:11:18But right now
01:11:19The blinding flashlight beam
01:11:22Pins me down like a viper's tongue
01:11:24Catch her!
01:11:25She can't get far!
01:11:26I can't let them catch me
01:11:28That'll just cause more trouble
01:11:30For Grandma Ada
01:11:31Save me dad
01:11:44I run through the tunnel for my life
01:11:47But those heavy footsteps
01:11:49Follow me like a death sentence
01:11:52James catches up to me quickly
01:11:54He grabs my hair tight
01:11:56Slams me hard onto the cold rocky ground
01:11:59And talks with Miss Ella
01:12:00About breaking my legs
01:12:02The huge rock is about to smash my legs
01:12:05I can almost hear my bones breaking
01:12:07Someone please save me
01:12:10Who? Who is it?
01:12:11Do you have any idea who you're messing with?
01:12:16No!
01:12:17Don't kill me!
01:12:18You can take the girl
01:12:18She's worth an oil field
01:12:19You'll be rich!
01:12:21I hear Ella's terrified voice in the dark
01:12:23Did someone save me?
01:12:25No!
01:12:41Dad?
01:12:46Dad?
01:12:47It's dad
01:12:48He saves me
01:12:49I knew he wasn't dead
01:12:51My daughter
01:12:51Leonith
01:12:52Dad's embrace is as warm as the midday sun
01:12:56It instantly drives away all the cold and fear in the mine
01:13:01Dad carefully checks me for injuries
01:13:03Luckily, Miss Ella and the others haven't hurt me yet
01:13:07Dad takes me out of the pitch black mine
01:13:10Grandma Ada and the others find us too
01:13:13Grandma Ada checks every inch of me
01:13:16She only relaxes after making sure I'm not hurt
01:13:19Leone
01:13:20My sweet baby
01:13:22Are you okay?
01:13:25Grandma Ada furiously scolds Miss Ella and James
01:13:29Sheriff Harry arrives and arrests them
01:13:32The bad guys are taken away
01:13:34No!
01:13:35Mother, please forgive me!
01:13:36It's over
01:13:37It's all over
01:13:39No!
01:13:40And dad is finally back
01:13:42I hold grandma's hand tightly with one hand
01:13:45And grip dad broad, warm hand with the other
01:13:52Dad promises me he will come back
01:13:54Grandma Ada tells me
01:13:56Dad is going to catch the bad guy
01:13:59The one behind this whole conspiracy
01:14:03Dad tells me to stay here and be good
01:14:06He has to go take care of something
01:14:21Glane messes everything up
01:14:23After finding out dad's identity
01:14:26He decides to flee immediately
01:14:30Dammit!
01:14:31Why does he have a military background?
01:14:40McLean jumps into his car in a panic
01:14:43But they don't even make it out of the estate gates
01:14:46Get us out of here
01:14:47As fast as you can
01:14:49Now!
01:14:55My dad blocks their way
01:14:57McLean gives the order
01:14:59And the car doesn't slow down
01:15:02They want to run my dad over
01:15:04Facing the speeding beast
01:15:06Dad doesn't panic
01:15:07He calmly pulls out his gun and shoots
01:15:16Dad's perfect breakthrough marksmanship flips the bad guy's car
01:15:21McLean can't escape
01:15:22Don't kill me!
01:15:23I'll give you 10 million!
01:15:25Keep your money
01:15:26You'll need it to buy your way into hell
01:15:31McLean stands in the dock in a prison uniform
01:15:34Totally stripped of his former arrogance
01:15:39Dad not only catches McLean himself
01:15:41But also gathers all the evidence of his crimes
01:15:45No elite lawyer can save him now
01:15:49McLean
01:15:52Do you have anything to say?
01:15:54No
01:15:55I confess to my crimes
01:15:58In the end
01:15:59McLean is sentenced to life in prison
01:16:02And stripped of all his assets
01:16:14As for Miss Ella and James
01:16:17They get their due punishment too
01:16:2030 years in prison
01:16:22They deserve it
01:16:23All the bad guys are locked up
01:16:26And I finally have my dad back
01:16:28A much better life is waiting for us
01:16:33Dad's hand is so warm
01:16:35And I feel so comfortable right now
01:16:38He promises he'll never leave my side again
01:16:41Tomorrow is Thanksgiving
01:16:43Our family must have a proper celebration
01:16:53The fire cracklers
01:16:54And the smell of roast turkey and pumpkin pie
01:16:58Fills the whole house
01:17:00This is a Thanksgiving dinner
01:17:02I couldn't even dare to dream of
01:17:06Grandma Ada and the family call me their little angel
01:17:09They say they have this life now because of me
01:17:11My dad also thanks Grandma Ada
01:17:14Because she took me in
01:17:16If it weren't for her
01:17:18I wouldn't be here today
01:17:26Even without blood ties
01:17:27I've considered them my real family for a long time
01:17:38This is the only thing your mom left behind
01:17:40She got separated from her family in a dust storm
01:17:43Her wish was to find them
01:17:44Now I'm passing it on to you
01:17:46Mom
01:17:47I take my mom's belonging
01:17:49And beside me
01:17:50Grandma Ada suddenly freezes
01:17:52As if she's been electrocuted
01:17:57Oh my god
01:17:58Leonie
01:17:59Your mother is my biological daughter
01:18:02Who went missing 30 years ago
01:18:04I gave her this pocket watch
01:18:06You are Margaret's child
01:18:08Nobody saw this coming
01:18:09My mom is actually
01:18:11Aide Grandma Ada's daughter
01:18:16I hug Grandma Aide tight
01:18:18No she's my real grandma
01:18:20She's my actual family
01:18:22Grandma Ada
01:18:23You're my real grandma
01:18:25Yes my sweet girl
01:18:27I'm your grandma
01:18:28Forever
01:18:29Thank god
01:18:30We truly are family
01:18:32Not only do I have my dad back
01:18:34But Grandma Ada is my biological grandmother
01:18:37I'm so lucky and so happy
01:18:39Happy Thanksgivings everyone
01:18:40Let's eat
01:18:41Woooo
01:18:46The nightmare is over
01:18:48Thanks to the oil field
01:18:50Everyone in the village can afford to eat
01:18:52And wear warm clothes
01:18:55Dad plays with me every day
01:18:57I feel like the happiest kid in the world
01:19:02And my grandma Ada
01:19:04She no longer needs her mean disguise
01:19:07She is now the most generous old lady in the whole village
01:19:11Take a break if you're tired
01:19:16Grandma Ada
01:19:20Hi
01:19:21Grandma Ada
01:19:24Oh my
01:19:26My little Leona looks so pretty today
01:19:31Leona needs to go to school in the city
01:19:33I'm taking her there myself
01:19:34Dad, will the city people bully me?
01:19:38Don't worry
01:19:39Dad will protect you
01:19:40I am so incredibly happy now
01:19:43All the misfortunes of the past are gone
01:19:45I feel so blessed
01:19:47Because I finally have a home
