00:00:00Make us small, but we were made to rise above it all.
00:00:05Where everything they couldn't see,
00:00:09now they're watching you and me.
00:00:13All the dreams we held onto are finally breaking through.
00:00:22Gold Queen!
00:00:24Gold Queen!
00:00:26Gold Queen!
00:00:27Encore in two.
00:00:28Not today. I have my high school reunion, remember?
00:00:32But...
00:00:33I'm finally gonna see my best friend.
00:00:40Wait, the exit's swollen with fans. Your identity.
00:00:48Hmm, I have an idea.
00:00:51No, hold up!
00:00:53Hey, back up!
00:00:56It's not her.
00:00:57It's not her.
00:00:58It's not her.
00:00:58Where is she?
00:00:59Gold Queen!
00:01:12Hey!
00:01:14Go on, get back inside and make sure it's spotless.
00:01:15Oh no!
00:01:17I forgot to bring my bag with my dress.
00:01:20Ruth?
00:01:22Ruth Davenport?
00:01:23Barry.
00:01:24Not you.
00:01:25Hi, Barry.
00:01:26Wow!
00:01:27You became a cleaner!
00:01:30How sad.
00:01:32Yeah.
00:01:32It's great to see you too.
00:01:34Bye.
00:01:34Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:01:35Hey, hey!
00:01:37You are not going in there.
00:01:39So just walk away with what little dignity you have left.
00:01:43As far as I know, this is our class reunion, which means I have every right to be here.
00:01:50Well, I was the one who organized it, so I decide who gets to come in.
00:01:53This isn't high school anymore, Barry, so I'm going to go inside where I'm going to have fun with my
00:01:59best friend Mona, and you're not going to stop me.
00:02:02Mona?
00:02:04Mona?
00:02:05You think the future heiress of Psychus, a company worth millions, wants to talk to you.
00:02:10A cleaner.
00:02:13You know what, boys?
00:02:14Let's go.
00:02:14Get her out of here.
00:02:16Hey!
00:02:17Let go of me!
00:02:18You, Ruth, are not getting in there.
00:02:21Let go of me, you jerks!
00:02:33Let me go, you jerk!
00:02:35Ruth?
00:02:37Let go of her!
00:02:39Right now!
00:02:41Sorry, son.
00:02:42Sorry about that.
00:02:42I bet.
00:02:44All right, go get him.
00:02:47Betsy!
00:02:49Ah!
00:02:50What?
00:02:51Hi!
00:02:53Hi!
00:02:53Hi!
00:02:53I can't believe you're actually here!
00:02:55It's been so long.
00:02:57Honestly, I just came to see you.
00:02:59I missed you so much, Mona.
00:03:04And I see you have met my fiancé.
00:03:11She's engaged to that scumbag?
00:03:15Um, congratulations.
00:03:17I know you remember Barry as, well, not the nicest kid in school, but I promise he has changed so
00:03:23much.
00:03:24No, he hasn't.
00:03:25Look, if you just give him a chance, you'll see it for yourself.
00:03:28Right?
00:03:29Uh, sweetie, um, I think with your new social status, you don't have to bother explaining yourself to losers like
00:03:37her, so...
00:03:38What did you just say?
00:03:41Ruth is my best friend.
00:03:43She is a cleaner, Mona.
00:03:44Stop getting so emotional.
00:03:47It is embarrassing just being seen talking to her.
00:03:49She does not have a place at our table.
00:03:51You have no idea how right you are, Barry.
00:03:54I don't belong at your table.
00:03:56I belong at the head of it.
00:03:57So, Ruth, get out of here before you cause more drama.
00:04:02Barry!
00:04:03Ruth is my soulmate.
00:04:06I honestly don't know if I would have survived high school without her.
00:04:15Seriously, Mona?
00:04:19Taken, freak.
00:04:23Hey, there's a spot over here.
00:04:28Thanks.
00:04:31I'm Mona.
00:04:33I'm Ruth.
00:04:36Mona, you're the freakin' heiress of Psychus, okay?
00:04:39You and I, baby, we are going to run this town.
00:04:42We can't waste our time on losers like her.
00:04:47But, Barry...
00:04:48If you really want to start your life with me,
00:04:50you get Ruth to leave now.
00:04:57Tell Ruth to leave now.
00:05:00You cannot really be considering letting her in.
00:05:03Our whole class is going to be there, including Jonathan Peters.
00:05:06Do you really think the governor is going to take you seriously when he sees that your best friend is
00:05:11a cleaner?
00:05:11Please, stop.
00:05:13I think Jonathan will be thrilled to see me.
00:05:16Oh.
00:05:17Barry, remember our one condition for our marriage and the merger?
00:05:22Don't.
00:05:23Our company's motto is people before profit.
00:05:28Sure.
00:05:30Ruth is clearly not rich and is a cleaner.
00:05:33But not everyone is born with a silver spoon.
00:05:36She only had a single mother to raise her.
00:05:39And what's most important is that she is a good person.
00:05:42The best person I know.
00:05:46Mona, you don't have to defend me.
00:05:49As for you, Barry, you need to accept the fact that Mona and I are best friends.
00:05:53And that you have no idea who I really am.
00:05:57Who you really are?
00:06:00You're a pathetic cleaner. That's who you really are.
00:06:02Maybe I should just tell Mona who I really am.
00:06:05Then she won't have to deal with all this bullshit anymore.
00:06:08Hey, Mila, come here.
00:06:10I think it's about time that you know something about me.
00:06:17No, Ruth, look.
00:06:19You don't need to explain yourself.
00:06:21There is nothing wrong with being a cleaner.
00:06:25Treat Ruth with respect.
00:06:27That is, if you still want to marry me.
00:06:31Okay.
00:06:36So, what do you say, Barry?
00:06:41Oh, uh...
00:06:41Oh!
00:06:43You know, you're going to have to hold that thought,
00:06:44because this is Jonathan's assistant.
00:06:46I have to take this.
00:06:47Hello?
00:06:49Hello?
00:06:49Hello, Barry.
00:06:50Yes, thank you for returning my call.
00:06:52I just wanted to confirm that Governor Peters is able to join us today.
00:06:55It would be such an honor to have him with us.
00:06:57I know he's busy, but...
00:06:59Unfortunately, Mr. Peters had another arrangement pop up.
00:07:01He won't be able to make it to the high school reunion tonight.
00:07:05Mm-hmm.
00:07:06He sends his deepest regrets.
00:07:11Okay, Barry, it's okay.
00:07:13It's okay.
00:07:16I...
00:07:17I am really sorry about him.
00:07:18I know he seems really aggressive, but he does care about me.
00:07:22He's just nervous about the merger.
00:07:24I have to say something.
00:07:25She cannot marry this man.
00:07:27Mona, are you actually happy with him?
00:07:34You know how many women would love to be in my position?
00:07:37And do you know how many men would love to switch places with Barry?
00:07:42Jonathan Peters, for example?
00:07:45Jonathan?
00:07:46No, no.
00:07:47He is one of the richest, most powerful sought-after people in the country.
00:07:50There is no way.
00:07:51He is so out of my league.
00:07:53I highly doubt that.
00:07:54Don't you remember when he was head over heels in love with you?
00:07:59Okay, I know this one.
00:08:00This one I know.
00:08:02This one I don't.
00:08:04Oh, no.
00:08:05Ruth, we have to study if we fail this debate final because of you.
00:08:09Just one more verse.
00:08:12And when the lights were gone, we found a way to carry on.
00:08:23And if the world turns cold tonight, I'll be your fire, I'll be your light.
00:08:29For God's sake, just kiss already.
00:08:36He was so into you.
00:08:38That was high school.
00:08:39Well, Jonathan can't make it.
00:08:41This, this is, I cannot believe this.
00:08:44I'll handle it.
00:08:46You know, I think the cleaning fumes have rotted your brain cells, Ruth.
00:08:54Get the governor, please.
00:08:56Grace, you know, you don't have to do this.
00:08:58It's no problem at all.
00:09:05Sir, it's the Gold Queen.
00:09:07Ruth.
00:09:10Hey, Jonathan.
00:09:12Whatever else you're doing can wait.
00:09:14Come to the event hall immediately.
00:09:15Of course I'll be there.
00:09:16Great.
00:09:17See you soon.
00:09:19Well, Jonathan said he's on his way.
00:09:22Oh.
00:09:22Yeah, right.
00:09:23He said he had plans.
00:09:24Okay.
00:09:24Right.
00:09:25And he canceled them for me.
00:09:28He owes me.
00:09:30Owes you.
00:09:31The only person he owes is the Gold Queen.
00:09:33He would have lost that election if she hadn't publicly posted her support for him.
00:09:36I left the Gold Queen.
00:09:37She was amazing.
00:09:38Just stop.
00:09:39Okay?
00:09:40Just stop acting like you're some kind of big shot.
00:09:42We see right through it.
00:09:44Well, no, come on.
00:09:44Let's go inside.
00:09:45Hey, Barry.
00:09:46What?
00:09:46You're going to be receiving a call in three, two, one.
00:09:56Oh.
00:09:59Bill?
00:10:00Yes.
00:10:00Governor Peterson.
00:10:02Oh, wonderful.
00:10:02We are so thrilled that he'll be joining us.
00:10:05Thank you so much.
00:10:06Oh, thank God.
00:10:09How did you?
00:10:10She didn't do shit.
00:10:11Okay?
00:10:12All right.
00:10:12Don't buy into this.
00:10:14Important thing is, he's going to show up.
00:10:17So you, me, and him will get a picture together and everyone will invest in our company.
00:10:21Yeah.
00:10:22Um.
00:10:24How did you do that?
00:10:26Or everything they couldn't see.
00:10:28Now they're watching you and me.
00:10:38That's a Gold Queen lyric.
00:10:40No.
00:10:42You can't be.
00:10:45You're the Gold Queen?
00:10:48There's no way.
00:10:49Oh, come on, Mona.
00:10:51She didn't have anything to do with this.
00:10:53It is purely a coincidence.
00:10:54I mean, Ruth does have the most beautiful voice I know.
00:10:57She's a cleaner.
00:10:58Enough with this nonsense.
00:11:00There's no chance that's her.
00:11:01We need to go inside to get ready for the future president.
00:11:06You stay out here.
00:11:07Wait!
00:11:09I'm not going in without Ruth.
00:11:12Either you let her in, or I'm leaving.
00:11:23Oh, come on in.
00:11:25Have a drink.
00:11:27But you keep your distance.
00:11:29And under no circumstances.
00:11:30No circumstances.
00:11:31No circumstances, Mona. Does she talk with Jonathan Peters?
00:11:35No circumstances.
00:11:37Oh, Barry. You're in for a very big surprise.
00:11:44I'll see you inside in a bit.
00:11:46Hey, get us a drink.
00:11:47Okay.
00:11:56I can't believe I spent my high school years trying to fit in with them.
00:11:59If only they know who I am now.
00:12:01Hey, throw this away and get me another glass of wine.
00:12:05Libby Hathaway.
00:12:06Some witches never change.
00:12:08Do it yourself.
00:12:10Wait, where do you think you're going?
00:12:13Just like, do your fucking job.
00:12:19I'm a guest here, not the help.
00:12:22Or are you too drunk to remember your own classmate?
00:12:24I think I would recognize someone I went to high school with.
00:12:27She doesn't even remember me.
00:12:29Well, I remember you perfectly.
00:12:32Sadly, you haven't changed a bit.
00:12:35Excuse me?
00:12:36Whatever.
00:12:37I'm gonna go find Mona.
00:12:39I think that Mona wouldn't want to be seen with someone like you.
00:12:44Okay?
00:12:44So now, just toss this and grab me a drink.
00:12:55You know, she thinks she's gonna be like a drink.
00:12:58And, you know.
00:13:00Come on.
00:13:00Will Jonathan arise?
00:13:01We have to get photos with him immediately so we can leave them to the press.
00:13:04Sir, can you hold still, please?
00:13:10Ruth?
00:13:11Hey, hey, hey, do not get involved in that high school nonsense, okay?
00:13:15Now, pull yourself together and smile.
00:13:19My friendship with Ruth isn't some high school nonsense.
00:13:23She's like family to me.
00:13:25What do you not understand?
00:13:39All right, that's it. I'm done with this.
00:13:44Are you on your way?
00:13:46Okay.
00:13:48I think it's time we told Mona everything.
00:13:54How dare you spread lies.
00:13:57Just look at yourself.
00:13:59Same laugh, same bully.
00:14:02Libby, only this time I'm the one with the crowd.
00:14:08Aw, it's the little genius gonna cry.
00:14:11Stop!
00:14:13Leave her alone.
00:14:16You're going to regret this, Libby.
00:14:18No, you're going to regret this.
00:14:21Mona is my friend, and I won't let you cheapen her name
00:14:25just so you can get some free food you wannabe.
00:14:28Security, take this trash out of my sight.
00:14:31Stop!
00:14:34Don't you dare touch her.
00:14:37Don't you dare touch her.
00:14:40Okay.
00:14:41Thanks.
00:14:43How dare you treat my best friend like this?
00:14:47And why didn't anyone step in to stop this?
00:14:50Your best friend?
00:14:52What the hell?
00:14:54Always has been.
00:14:56And always will be.
00:14:58Isn't Mona crazy?
00:14:59Why would she be friends with a cleaner?
00:15:01Maybe she's doing it out of pity.
00:15:04Look, I was just trying to protect your reputation.
00:15:07Okay?
00:15:07I didn't even know that you knew her.
00:15:09Of course I know her.
00:15:11And you also know her.
00:15:15She went to school with us?
00:15:17Look, if I knew that you knew her, I wouldn't have behaved this way.
00:15:21Truly.
00:15:23So you're saying it's only okay to bully people without powerful friends?
00:15:27Just like I thought.
00:15:30You're still the same bully you were back then.
00:15:33You're right, Ruth.
00:15:34And I don't have room for people like her in my life anymore.
00:15:40Security?
00:15:41Are you guys here?
00:15:42Please escort Ms. Hathaway out.
00:15:44Hey!
00:15:45Hey, no, no, no.
00:15:47You can't do this, okay?
00:15:55Oh my God, it's Daisy!
00:15:57Oh my God, is that Daisy?
00:15:59Have you heard her music?
00:15:59She's seriously on the road to stardom.
00:16:01Oh my God.
00:16:11Get your hands off of her, now.
00:16:14Livy's not going anywhere.
00:16:17Wow!
00:16:18Mona and Ruth.
00:16:19Elville High's resident freaks.
00:16:22Just like the good old days, huh?
00:16:24Wow, Daisy.
00:16:25I see you're still stuck in your mean Queen Bee face.
00:16:28It's a bit pathetic, don't you think?
00:16:30You're calling me pathetic.
00:16:32Little Miss Maid?
00:16:33You know, you have gotten funny.
00:16:36That's enough.
00:16:37Barry, stop her.
00:16:39Oh, stop me.
00:16:40I think our little Mona might be confused.
00:16:43Isn't that right, my love?
00:16:50Barry?
00:16:51What's going on here?
00:16:52Barry and Daisy were a couple in high school.
00:16:54I bet they're still in love.
00:16:56I gave you so many chances to prove that you were worthy.
00:17:00Of someone like me.
00:17:02But you continued to disappoint.
00:17:04And you choosing your disgusting friend was the last straw.
00:17:07How could you do this?
00:17:09How can you be so cruel?
00:17:11Oh, move on, Mona.
00:17:13We're getting married.
00:17:15To think I believe we could build an empire,
00:17:17but you are still just a little loser.
00:17:20I need someone who understands my world.
00:17:24With someone like Daisy.
00:17:27But we already signed the merger.
00:17:29Exactly.
00:17:30I now have control over Psykis' assets,
00:17:33and I don't need to pretend that I like you anymore.
00:17:36No, you can't do this.
00:17:38I'll just cancel the merger.
00:17:40The moment you signed those documents,
00:17:42I took control of everything,
00:17:43including your family's assets.
00:17:46You, Mona, have nothing.
00:17:56Dad!
00:17:57You have to stop the merger
00:17:58and freeze all movement from our bank accounts.
00:18:01No, no, no.
00:18:02Do it now!
00:18:03Sweetie, the funds were already withdrawn
00:18:05and transferred to Barry's name bank account.
00:18:08What?
00:18:11What's going on?
00:18:14You have nothing.
00:18:16I can't believe you actually fell for it.
00:18:19Come on, Mona.
00:18:21You didn't actually believe
00:18:22Barry would marry someone like you.
00:18:24I would be just too sad.
00:18:26Everyone here knows that he's been in love with me
00:18:28since the sixth grade.
00:18:30Were you always with Daisy?
00:18:35Was this all your plan?
00:18:37And this whole time
00:18:38to take over my family's company?
00:18:42Don't worry, Mona.
00:18:44Hey, I'm gonna fix this, okay?
00:18:46You can't fix this!
00:18:48I have lost everything!
00:18:51My family is gonna kill me!
00:18:53Now that Barry's no longer your fiancé,
00:18:55y'all aren't welcome here anymore.
00:18:57This reunion is for successful people only.
00:19:01And you guys are losers.
00:19:03So you need to leave now
00:19:05before I call security.
00:19:10What's so funny?
00:19:13I just think it's funny
00:19:14that two women who rely only on a man's help
00:19:16would dare criticize two self-sufficient women.
00:19:19That's all.
00:19:20How dare you even open your mouth, you loser!
00:19:23Do you have any idea who Daisy is?
00:19:25She is the best singer
00:19:26to come out of this high school.
00:19:28Hell,
00:19:28she is the best singer
00:19:29to come out of Alville.
00:19:30And not to boast,
00:19:32but I actually have a little announcement.
00:19:35I've just signed a deal
00:19:36with the Gold Queen's record company.
00:19:38She's gonna make me an international star.
00:19:42So this is the rich brat my label mentioned.
00:19:45Um, that is amazing.
00:19:48And I'm gonna get a free ticket.
00:19:50Oh, you know it.
00:19:52Additionally,
00:19:53I'll be doing my first performance
00:19:55very, very soon.
00:19:57You all will get to witness
00:19:58the display of my first single.
00:20:00Ha, ha, ha.
00:20:01I wouldn't get too attached
00:20:03to that contract, Daisy.
00:20:04No, no.
00:20:05The Gold Queen has zero tolerance
00:20:06for those fake talent.
00:20:08One call from me
00:20:10and she'll make sure
00:20:10you're officially blacklisted
00:20:11before you even hit the first note.
00:20:13Ha, ha.
00:20:14Well, you asked for it.
00:20:17She's gone.
00:20:20Maybe it's better if we just leave.
00:20:22I wouldn't have already lost everything.
00:20:25Hey, we're not going anywhere.
00:20:28Trust me, okay?
00:20:30If we don't stand up to them now,
00:20:31when will we ever?
00:20:32Yeah, but I do.
00:20:34Just forget about Barry.
00:20:36Besides,
00:20:37I have someone coming any moment now.
00:20:39Jonathan Peters.
00:20:41And I'm sure he'll be very happy to see you.
00:20:43Oh, my God.
00:20:44On what planet is the governor
00:20:46going to be happy to meet your loser friend?
00:20:48Or you, for that matter?
00:20:50Let's just say Jonathan and I kept in touch
00:20:52and he actually knows who I am.
00:20:54Oh, I'm sure.
00:20:56I mean,
00:20:57how much is he paying you
00:20:58to scrub his toilets?
00:20:59Ha, ha, ha.
00:21:01Of the act, Ruff,
00:21:02we see right through you.
00:21:03This name dropping
00:21:04is not going to protect
00:21:05your pathetic reputation.
00:21:07Don't worry about mine.
00:21:09Worry about yours.
00:21:24Let's do a sweep of the hall
00:21:25before the governor's arrival.
00:21:26Yes, sir.
00:21:37Check over there.
00:21:39Make sure all side rooms are empty.
00:21:41Check all cell phones
00:21:42and make sure no bottles are in court.
00:21:49Bill, it is so nice
00:21:51to meet you
00:21:52and we are so honored
00:21:53that Governor Peters
00:21:54is going to be able to come to you.
00:21:55I don't have time for this.
00:21:57I'm looking for the gold.
00:22:00I believe I'm the one
00:22:01you're looking for.
00:22:07Ruth, what are you talking about?
00:22:09Please ignore them.
00:22:10She was supposed to be gone
00:22:11a long time ago
00:22:12because she's just a poor cleaner.
00:22:14Quite unfortunate, really.
00:22:16Ignore this eyesore.
00:22:18I'm sorry,
00:22:19who are you referring to?
00:22:20This cheap toilet scrubbing cleaner.
00:22:24She wreaks budget
00:22:25and honestly,
00:22:26it's giving me like
00:22:27an allergic reaction.
00:22:29So, you're telling me
00:22:30that she is a cleaner?
00:22:32Yes, but do not worry.
00:22:34This discount version of a woman
00:22:36will not ruin our night.
00:22:39Guards, stand down.
00:22:42Ma'am,
00:22:43so good to see you again.
00:22:46Wait, what the hell is going on here?
00:22:48Did he just call her ma'am?
00:22:50Bill, have your men
00:22:51clear the perimeter
00:22:52and wait at the front entrance.
00:22:53I don't want any distractions
00:22:54while I finish my business
00:22:55with these.
00:22:58People.
00:22:59Understood.
00:23:01You heard her.
00:23:02Fall back to the main entrance,
00:23:03don't let anyone in
00:23:04until she gives the word.
00:23:07Why is the governor's team
00:23:08listening to you?
00:23:10He'll do whatever I tell him.
00:23:14I told you both
00:23:15you're making a mistake.
00:23:17Baby, do something.
00:23:18This street rat
00:23:19is going to ruin my moment.
00:23:25She's going to ruin my performance.
00:23:27Please, please, please.
00:23:27I'm going to handle it.
00:23:28I promise.
00:23:29Bill, I think there's been
00:23:31a little bit of a misunderstanding.
00:23:33You see, I'm in charge here.
00:23:34And in fact,
00:23:36I was Jonathan's best friend
00:23:37in high school.
00:23:39Best friend?
00:23:41You boycotted him
00:23:42because he was nice
00:23:42to me and Mona.
00:23:43Would you shut the hell up?
00:23:45I apologize for her behavior.
00:23:47She's not the brightest bulb.
00:23:49But don't worry,
00:23:49I'm going to kick her out
00:23:50before the governor comes.
00:23:52Kick her out?
00:23:53Are you out of your mind?
00:23:54We knew each other
00:23:55in high school
00:23:56and she grew up
00:23:56to be such a loser.
00:23:58And between you and I,
00:24:00it is quite embarrassing
00:24:01for all of us
00:24:02that she showed her face here.
00:24:04Oh!
00:24:05Oh!
00:24:05Oh, God!
00:24:06You insolent fool.
00:24:08How dare you speak
00:24:09of her like that?
00:24:12What the hell are you doing?
00:24:14Baby, are you okay?
00:24:15Not really.
00:24:16You're all idiots.
00:24:17The governor wouldn't have even agreed
00:24:19to come to this little party
00:24:20if she didn't invite him.
00:24:21What is going on?
00:24:23Why are you showing her respect?
00:24:25She is nothing
00:24:25but a walking track,
00:24:26game man.
00:24:30Shut your mouth
00:24:31while you're ahead.
00:24:32What's going on?
00:24:35Do you even know who she is?
00:24:37Check the fit.
00:24:38She's the cleaning lady.
00:24:40You're really all idiots.
00:24:41Mr. Peters was right about you.
00:24:43Then who the hell is she?
00:24:44Okay, why bother
00:24:46to give her so much respect?
00:24:47You don't deserve
00:24:48an explanation.
00:24:49Just trust that
00:24:50she's more successful.
00:24:51and more important
00:24:52than all of you.
00:24:53Okay, enough.
00:24:53Are you going to offer up
00:24:55an explanation
00:24:55or are you going to leave
00:24:56like you should have
00:24:57ten minutes ago?
00:24:57Yeah, you coward!
00:24:59Baby,
00:25:00please do not let these people
00:25:02ruin my night.
00:25:04Mona,
00:25:05you both need to leave
00:25:06now!
00:25:10Then I'll leave
00:25:11in the next ten seconds.
00:25:13Ruth,
00:25:13please,
00:25:14let's just go
00:25:14before something bad happens.
00:25:16I don't want to be around him.
00:25:18Please.
00:25:19I can't.
00:25:19I can't.
00:25:20I can't.
00:25:21Fine.
00:25:22I'll tell you.
00:25:24Just to see the look
00:25:25on their faces,
00:25:26it's going to be worth it.
00:25:28Not that there's anything
00:25:29wrong with being a cleaner,
00:25:31but it's not exactly
00:25:32my profession.
00:25:33And to be honest,
00:25:35you all have heard
00:25:36and seen me multiple times
00:25:37over the last five years.
00:25:40Yeah,
00:25:40have you been cleaning houses
00:25:41in my neighborhood?
00:25:44No, Libby.
00:25:45I'm a singer.
00:25:47You didn't give up
00:25:48on your dream to sing?
00:25:50No.
00:25:51And to be honest,
00:25:52I've actually done quite well
00:25:53for myself.
00:25:55Well,
00:25:56if you're such a famous singer,
00:25:57why have none of us
00:25:58ever heard of you?
00:25:59You have.
00:26:05I am.
00:26:07Attention, attention.
00:26:08Everyone,
00:26:09if you could gather
00:26:10around the stage,
00:26:12we have a very special surprise.
00:26:14One of the most talented
00:26:16and successful singers
00:26:17that has made their way
00:26:19out of Elville High
00:26:20is here tonight.
00:26:22What?
00:26:23But I haven't even
00:26:24told them yet.
00:26:26Daisy,
00:26:26please make your way
00:26:28to the stage.
00:26:28Everybody give it up
00:26:29for Daisy.
00:26:30Woo!
00:26:33Prepare to see
00:26:34a real star.
00:26:40Ruth, let's just leave.
00:26:42I'm tired of these bullies.
00:26:45Leave now and miss out
00:26:46on Daisy humiliating herself?
00:26:48I've heard her sing.
00:26:49She's terrible.
00:26:51Really?
00:26:52Yeah.
00:27:10Maybe it's a trending new style.
00:27:12Otherwise,
00:27:13why would the gold queen
00:27:13sign her to a record company?
00:27:15Sneeze because he
00:27:16hears all mine.
00:27:18Mirror, mirror
00:27:19on the wall.
00:27:20Who's the prettiest
00:27:22of them all?
00:27:25It's me.
00:27:26It's me.
00:27:27It's always been me.
00:27:29The girl that the whole world
00:27:31was dying to see.
00:27:33He chose me.
00:27:34He loved me.
00:27:35He gave me his heart
00:27:36She can't be a part
00:27:37of my record company.
00:27:38I don't care how much
00:27:39she's willing to pay.
00:27:41Born to shine.
00:27:42Born to glow.
00:27:45Everyone loves me.
00:27:47They told me so.
00:27:50Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:27:57That was great, babe.
00:27:59That's my woman up there, huh?
00:28:00Wow, that was amazing.
00:28:02I actually have one more
00:28:04small surprise for all of you.
00:28:06Our very own
00:28:07Toilet Cleaning Ruth
00:28:08has confided in me
00:28:09that she's an excellent singer,
00:28:11so I thought we would
00:28:12take this opportunity
00:28:13to allow her to prove herself.
00:28:17What are you waiting for?
00:28:18We want to hear
00:28:19your Toilet Cleaning song.
00:28:25Well, come on, Ruth.
00:28:27Don't be shy.
00:28:27I mean, you're a famous singer, right?
00:28:30Toilet Ruth.
00:28:31Toilet Ruth.
00:28:33Toilet Ruth.
00:28:35Toilet Ruth.
00:28:39You don't have to do this.
00:28:41Daisy isn't worth it.
00:28:45As we do every Friday,
00:28:47someone will share their talent.
00:28:49Ruth, the floor is yours.
00:29:02Stars in your eyes,
00:29:05a silent burn.
00:29:08I saw a world
00:29:10we never dared.
00:29:13And if the world
00:29:15turns cold at night,
00:29:16I'll be your fire,
00:29:18I'll be your light.
00:29:19and we were never
00:29:20meant to fall.
00:29:22We were the loudest
00:29:23stopper.
00:29:31Daisy and Barry
00:29:32will do whatever they can
00:29:33to make you look terrible.
00:29:35Trust me.
00:29:37Okay?
00:29:38Okay?
00:29:39For your listening pleasure,
00:29:41the singing rag.
00:29:58Come on.
00:30:00We want to know
00:30:00if you sound like a broom
00:30:01or only look like one, too.
00:30:03I'll be your Leo.
00:30:09Do you?
00:30:17Stars in your eyes,
00:30:20a silent prayer,
00:30:23I saw a world
00:30:26nobody did,
00:30:29Two broken hearts in empty halls
00:30:33We were invisible to them all
00:30:41Stars in your eyes, don't let them fade
00:30:47Hold on to every dream we made
00:30:52When no one hears you, I still do
00:30:56The world will turn and look at you
00:30:59Her voice is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard.
00:31:10Go, Bestie!
00:31:13She sounds exactly like the Gold Queen.
00:31:15That was the most beautiful thing I have ever heard in my entire life.
00:31:21Daisy, Ruth sounds exactly like the Gold Queen.
00:31:25Is that really what you want to have just said to me?
00:31:30Wow, she is really good.
00:31:33Well, I don't know what that was, but she just sounds exactly like the Gold Queen.
00:31:38Surely you're not all gullible enough to think that she's the Gold Queen.
00:31:42Be honest.
00:31:43You used a playback, right?
00:31:45Nope.
00:31:46All me.
00:31:46So I'm meant to believe that Ruth the Weirdo turned Ruth the Toilet Scrubber is actually a world-famous singer?
00:31:54DJ, if you wouldn't mind playing that last track back.
00:32:02Wait, isn't this a song that you just sung on stage?
00:32:05Watch.
00:32:05Cut it.
00:32:06Kill it.
00:32:07Well, you definitely killed it, Daisy.
00:32:11Unfortunately, you can't sing.
00:32:12And my record company isn't going to risk its reputation for someone like you.
00:32:21Hi.
00:32:22Please cancel our meeting with Daisy Vaughn.
00:32:25I've changed my mind.
00:32:30How can that be?
00:32:33That means...
00:32:34Just when I thought that you'd hit rock bottom, you sank lower.
00:32:39Faking a phone call with someone who wouldn't even give you the time of day?
00:32:43You're a fraud and a liar, and I'm going to make sure the Gold Queen hears about it.
00:32:47Are you out of your...
00:32:48Hey.
00:32:49That's okay.
00:32:51If I'm bluffing, then why don't you explain the phone call you're about to receive?
00:32:55Oh, come on.
00:32:57Just stop pretending, okay?
00:32:59Aren't you tired?
00:33:07What?
00:33:08No, that can't be.
00:33:12You can't do that.
00:33:14I will sue you.
00:33:15No, please don't cancel.
00:33:17I'm begging you.
00:33:17I...
00:33:19I bet this is the most embarrassing thing she has ever experienced.
00:33:25How did she do that?
00:33:26You guys can't honestly be falling for this.
00:33:29It's obviously a trick.
00:33:30Uh, yeah.
00:33:31How would you explain the phone call?
00:33:33Obviously, it was a fake call.
00:33:35And the contract still stands.
00:33:37Oh, my God.
00:33:38You know, along with paying the DJ and these gentlemen to pretend to be Jonathan's entourage.
00:33:45She's just planning ahead to make sure that we don't know that she's a pathetic cleaning lady.
00:33:51Yeah.
00:33:51You staged this whole thing.
00:33:55You are so ashamed that you grew up a loser that you take it out on us.
00:34:00You're pathetic.
00:34:02I think it's time you freaks leave.
00:34:05Mm-hmm.
00:34:06Come on.
00:34:07This is our reunion, too.
00:34:10Well, then let's put it to a vote.
00:34:12Ask the class.
00:34:14Anyone who'd like these freaks to leave, go ahead and raise your hands.
00:34:19Come on.
00:34:21Don't be shy.
00:34:24Oh, yeah.
00:34:25You, you.
00:34:35Lifelong friendship hand in hand.
00:34:37Our shared destiny is planned.
00:34:40I think it's...
00:34:40Yeah.
00:34:41It's...
00:34:43Sometimes a friend is stronger than family.
00:34:46Blah, blah, blah.
00:34:48How stupid.
00:34:49Give that back.
00:34:50That's private.
00:34:52Who's in favor of me not returning her notebook and reading what the freak wrote?
00:35:04You all are going to regret this.
00:35:06You're just a pathetic, sad, mopping Ruth.
00:35:10You got nothing.
00:35:11I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:14Nobody wants you here.
00:35:19I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:21I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:21I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:26I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:29I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:32I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:34I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:34I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:35I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:36I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:39I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:43I think it's time you get out now.
00:35:45Oh, my God. He is so hot.
00:35:58Thank you for the invitation. It is lovely to see you all.
00:36:01Of course. We are so honored you decided to come.
00:36:05I came as fast as I could.
00:36:06Hello, Johnny.
00:36:09Johnny?
00:36:11Johnny, this isn't high school anymore, okay?
00:36:13He is the governor, in case you haven't noticed.
00:36:16So show him some respect.
00:36:18Governor Peters, I am so sorry about her.
00:36:21As you can see, the years since high school have not been kind to her.
00:36:24Now she feels all this rage because she is no better than a pathetic floor rag.
00:36:30Ruth, a floor rag.
00:36:32Actually, floor rag is too beautiful of a description.
00:36:35I'd say she's more like a walking, stinking trash can.
00:36:39That's more appropriate.
00:36:40I suggest you choose your next words very carefully, Mary.
00:36:43You're right about one thing.
00:36:44We aren't in high school anymore.
00:36:46And I won't let you talk to her like that any longer.
00:36:50But, Johnny, I...
00:36:53Governor Peters, when I invited you here...
00:36:56I only came here tonight because of her invitation.
00:37:05Johnny, surely you remember my best friend Mona?
00:37:10Wow.
00:37:12Mona, I...
00:37:13I...
00:37:14I didn't recognize you.
00:37:15You...
00:37:16You look incredible.
00:37:20So, Johnny, how about that favor you owe me?
00:37:23What do you think about paying it back by taking this beautiful lady on a date?
00:37:29Ruth, stop.
00:37:31You're embarrassing me right now.
00:37:33It wouldn't be a favor.
00:37:36It would be my honor, Mona.
00:37:38I would love to take you out.
00:37:40Oh.
00:37:41If you'll have me.
00:37:42Uh, okay.
00:37:43Is somebody gonna explain to me why we're sucking up to the cleaning lady?
00:37:49Your call, Ruth.
00:37:51Ruth is the most powerful woman in the world, controlling industries that you could only dream of.
00:37:57In fact, there's not a single person on this planet that doesn't know her or her voice.
00:38:03What?
00:38:04If...
00:38:05You wanna tell them?
00:38:07I am the gold queen.
00:38:09Huh?
00:38:10Ruth's the gold queen?
00:38:11Huh?
00:38:12I mean, I-I can't say I'm surprised.
00:38:14You have always been the most talented person I have ever known.
00:38:19They thought their bullying would bring me down.
00:38:22But it only became my fuel.
00:38:25Every laugh, every insult only made me stronger and made me dream even bigger.
00:38:30You see, all you did was make me unstoppable.
00:38:34So thank you for the motivation.
00:38:37Ruth, baby girl, you know we were just teasing you, right?
00:38:41Something kids do?
00:38:42I feel like we all agree that the best course of action is just close that chapter and preserve those
00:38:48precious childhood memories for all of us.
00:38:50Well, Daisy, I'm not interested in those memories.
00:38:54Especially if you were in them.
00:38:58Barry, you have 24 hours to give back everything you took from Mona.
00:39:03Otherwise, the governor here is going to make sure you get arrested for fraud.
00:39:06I...
00:39:06You heard the lady.
00:39:10Tomorrow, a special performance will be held at the City Theatre in honor of my visit to Elville and me
00:39:16finally reuniting with my bestie.
00:39:21That is, only those who didn't vote against us leaving or behave like a bully in high school will be
00:39:26invited.
00:39:28I gotta get a drink.
00:39:35I can't believe you're the gold queen!
00:39:37This is amazing!
00:39:39I know, it's wild.
00:39:41I've been wanting to tell you for so long.
00:39:44And I've been wanting to hear everything that's been going on with you too.
00:39:47But first we have to go get dresses.
00:39:49Yes.
00:39:50And I won't let you two miss out on each other again.
00:39:55Thank you, bestie.
00:40:05So, you like Thai food?
00:40:08How did you know?
00:40:10Mutual acquaintance, Tolbert.
00:40:12Finally!
00:40:22Eww, take your filthy hands off that dress.
00:40:26Ruth?
00:40:27Shirley, right?
00:40:29You were on the debate team with Mona.
00:40:31I was.
00:40:33What are you doing here?
00:40:34This is my mother's store.
00:40:36We specialize in super luxurious dresses.
00:40:39So you shouldn't touch them with your disgusting hands.
00:40:42They cost more than what you'll probably make in a lifetime.
00:40:46I suggest you not discriminate against me based on what I'm wearing.
00:40:50Mom?
00:40:51Yes, honey?
00:40:53Mom, remember the state debates?
00:40:55That girl who spent the whole final round crying in a locked bathroom stall?
00:41:00How could I forget?
00:41:01She basically handed you that trophy on a silver platter.
00:41:04It was you who locked her in the bathroom that day.
00:41:07She didn't get accepted to the college she wanted because of your stupid prank.
00:41:11Yup, it was me.
00:41:13Such a fun memory.
00:41:16Why would you do that?
00:41:18Because that's how winners behave.
00:41:20That's exactly what my daughter is.
00:41:22A winner.
00:41:23Some are winners like me, and some are losers like you and Mona.
00:41:28It's just how the world works.
00:41:30Mona is not a loser.
00:41:32She's actually an insanely successful businesswoman.
00:41:35In fact, I'm here to buy her a dress for the Gold Queen's concert.
00:41:40Sure, yeah.
00:41:42And I'm the Queen of England.
00:41:43You know, I heard Jonathan Peters was invited to the VIP section of the concert tomorrow.
00:41:48I'm sure as soon as he sees you, you will conquer his heart and become the richest woman in the
00:41:54country.
00:41:56I promise you, you're not getting into that concert.
00:41:58Oh, did you hear that, Shirley?
00:42:00The cleaner says she won't let you in.
00:42:03Oh, I'm trembling.
00:42:04What's she gonna do, block the door with her duster?
00:42:08I'm just saying, save yourselves the embarrassment and don't even show up.
00:42:12Who the fuck do you think you are, huh?
00:42:15Don't believe me?
00:42:17Go ahead.
00:42:18Enjoy the show.
00:42:19I know I will.
00:42:20And I don't intend to buy a dress here anymore.
00:42:24Not so fast.
00:42:25You already touched the dresses with your dirty hands.
00:42:29You'll have to pay for every single dress you touched.
00:42:32Otherwise, I'll be forced to call the police.
00:42:35Have you lost your mind?
00:42:37Security!
00:42:39Get that thief.
00:42:43You're making a big mistake.
00:42:45Boo hoo, I'm shaking.
00:42:48You know, it's ironic that you sell luxury goods when you're both so cheap yourselves.
00:42:56You and your mother are gonna pay for what you did to Mona and how you treated me today.
00:43:00Mom, help.
00:43:03Mom, help the cleaners after me with her dustpans.
00:43:08Last chance, loser.
00:43:11Pay up.
00:43:12You won't receive a single cent from me.
00:43:15Not now and not ever.
00:43:16You've asked for it.
00:43:18Take her out.
00:43:19I'm calling the cops.
00:43:22What are you doing?
00:43:26Oh, I'm sorry.
00:43:27Did I drop your Windex or...
00:43:32Oh, no.
00:43:33I forgot to take it out of my bag after the concert.
00:43:39I can't believe this.
00:43:41You're not just any loser.
00:43:43You're a professional thief.
00:43:45Get her now.
00:43:46Don't touch me.
00:43:50Back off.
00:43:53Why aren't you grabbing her?
00:43:54Because she stole the mask.
00:43:56I bet you snuck into her room at the hotel you're working in and you stole it so you could
00:44:02sell it for a couple dollars.
00:44:04Surely, you could give that to the Gold Queen yourself.
00:44:07And who knows, maybe thanks to you she'll come and buy some dresses.
00:44:11Oh my God, Mom.
00:44:12You really think that could happen?
00:44:13I'm sure of it, sweetheart.
00:44:17What exactly are you laughing about?
00:44:19You're one step away from prison.
00:44:21There's just one small problem with your plan.
00:44:23What is that exactly?
00:44:25The Gold Queen would never come near this door ever again.
00:44:30Again?
00:44:31Considering you just kicked her out, I am the Gold Queen.
00:44:39This woman is crazy.
00:44:41We run the most elite boutique in the district.
00:44:45We don't just sell dresses.
00:44:46We sell status.
00:44:48You know what?
00:44:49I should share your world-class service with my followers.
00:44:53Go ahead.
00:44:55I'd love to see the three likes you get from your fellow janitors.
00:45:00Okay.
00:45:01Let's see what the world thinks of your so-called status.
00:45:05This should be fun to watch.
00:45:10Hey, my dear Gold fans.
00:45:12I wanted to warn you about this boutique store where quality is low and standards are even lower.
00:45:20And done.
00:45:22You're absolutely pathetic.
00:45:24We all know nothing's gonna happen.
00:45:32What the fuck?
00:45:36What?
00:45:37Fashion Week just cancelled our partnership.
00:45:43Mom, what's going on?
00:45:45Another stylist just cancelled fittings for the Oscars.
00:45:48Check our app for all of our scheduled fittings.
00:45:52Oh, fuck!
00:45:54We're ruined.
00:45:56Everyone's cancelled.
00:45:58Oh, my God.
00:46:00You are the Gold Queen.
00:46:02No, Mom.
00:46:03No way, it can't be.
00:46:04Shut up, Shirley.
00:46:04It's her.
00:46:06Please forgive my daughter.
00:46:07She didn't know who she was talking to.
00:46:09You'll get no pity from me.
00:46:11Especially after how you treated my bestie.
00:46:15What did she do to me?
00:46:17Oh, my God.
00:46:18That's Governor Jonathan Peters.
00:46:20Oh, shit.
00:46:21That's Mona.
00:46:22What is going on here?
00:46:23Mona, Mona, please forgive me.
00:46:25Okay?
00:46:25I knew if I let you compete in that debate, I'd never win.
00:46:28I had to get that scholarship.
00:46:29What?
00:46:30Do you remember the bathroom door that wouldn't open that day?
00:46:33She's the reason you were locked in the bathroom.
00:46:35That's why you never made it.
00:46:36I always wondered why.
00:46:38You were the best, and yet you never made it to the finals.
00:46:41It was you.
00:46:43You locked me in.
00:46:46That day changed my entire life.
00:46:49Everything that I planned, every dream I had of leaving this city vanished because of you.
00:46:56And now, it's her turn to see her world crumble.
00:47:00I've already made the post.
00:47:02No one's gonna set foot in this boutique ever again.
00:47:04Please, Gold Queen.
00:47:07I'm begging you, delete that post.
00:47:09This store is all we have.
00:47:11And Shirley is a loser.
00:47:13She can't find work anywhere else.
00:47:15We'll be out on the street.
00:47:17I'm begging you, please have mercy.
00:47:23Ruth, delete the post.
00:47:25Let them keep their store.
00:47:28Having to live with themselves is enough punishment.
00:47:31Wow.
00:47:32You have an incredible heart, Mona.
00:47:35Most people would have chosen revenge, and yet...
00:47:38You chose grace.
00:47:41It's done.
00:47:43You both are lucky she has more mercy than I do.
00:47:50Let's go, guys.
00:48:00Ruth?
00:48:01Um, about the concert tomorrow.
00:48:03There's something I need to ask you, and I know it's a lot, so...
00:48:07Feel free to say no.
00:48:09But...
00:48:09Would you mind inviting my parents to the concert?
00:48:15Ruth, I know that they didn't accept you back then, and...
00:48:18They tried to keep us apart, but...
00:48:20If you could just give them another chance, it would mean everything to me.
00:48:26I...
00:48:26I want them to see you the way I always have.
00:48:30Of course, Mona.
00:48:32What's important to you is important to me.
00:48:37I really, really appreciate it.
00:48:43But...
00:48:43Don't tell them who I am just yet.
00:48:45Leave that to me.
00:48:47When we finally meet, I want them to see for themselves that...
00:48:50I was never the bad influence they thought I was.
00:48:53Of course.
00:48:59I'm just so happy that you both are going to be there tomorrow.
00:49:02Two of my favorite people.
00:49:04Right in the front row.
00:49:06All right.
00:49:07Let's go shopping.
00:49:09Yay!
00:49:10I know how this ends.
00:49:11Come on!
00:49:17So...
00:49:18How was your date?
00:49:21He's perfect, Ruth.
00:49:23And he gives me butterflies.
00:49:25I can't believe I wasted so much time on that idiot Barry.
00:49:29Yeah.
00:49:30Barry sucks.
00:49:31He always has.
00:49:32Yeah.
00:49:33But look at how Jonathan, the quiet, gentle guy from high school, turned out to be the successful, beloved governor.
00:49:39And what about you, Ruth?
00:49:41I mean, look at you.
00:49:43I am so proud of you.
00:49:46I mean, who would have believed that you would become the most successful singer in the world?
00:49:50I can hardly believe it myself.
00:49:53It's like I'm two different people.
00:49:56First, there's Ruth.
00:49:57The freak or invisible girl that has to fight just to get noticed.
00:50:01And then, there's the gold queen.
00:50:04So dazzling, she blinds everyone.
00:50:08I honestly can't believe the scale it's reached.
00:50:10It's crazy.
00:50:11It's amazing.
00:50:15But, I am curious.
00:50:17Why do you wear that mask when you go on stage?
00:50:25I created the gold queen for myself.
00:50:28Because, I thought deep down that if I went out there just the way I am, I'd still be invisible.
00:50:36But, you are so beautiful and powerful, Ruth.
00:50:40If you went out on stage just like that, the audience would go wild.
00:50:45In jeans and a t-shirt.
00:50:47Yes!
00:50:49You know what, I am dying for my parents to see you.
00:50:51To just realize how wrong they were about you all those years.
00:50:56I wouldn't get your hopes up.
00:50:58They never liked me.
00:50:59And, I never interested why.
00:51:01Yeah, but that was a long time ago.
00:51:04And, like we said, we're not in high school anymore.
00:51:11There they are.
00:51:13They are in the VIP room.
00:51:16Should we go say hi?
00:51:17Are you sure about this?
00:51:19I'm sure.
00:51:22Fine.
00:51:23Let's do this.
00:51:24Let's do this.
00:51:25I just hope this goes smoothly.
00:51:29Hey, Mom!
00:51:32Dad?
00:51:35You look wonderful.
00:51:37You look incredible, Mona.
00:51:38Where did you get that outfit?
00:51:40Um, actually, Ruth gave it to me.
00:51:43Say hello to Ruth.
00:51:47You remember her?
00:51:48What is she doing here?
00:51:50She's here because she...
00:51:51We made it clear a long time ago we don't approve of this relationship between you two.
00:51:55Dad, wait.
00:51:57She isn't here for no reason.
00:51:59She's obvious why she's here.
00:52:00As usual, she's looking for a way to exploit your status.
00:52:04But to show up at a Gold Queen event with you?
00:52:07The nerve!
00:52:08You don't understand.
00:52:09Just let me explain.
00:52:11No explanation is necessary.
00:52:12She needs to leave now.
00:52:15You didn't listen to us in high school?
00:52:18And look where it got you.
00:52:19You were lonely.
00:52:20Friendless.
00:52:21You better listen to us now.
00:52:23No.
00:52:24It's the exact opposite.
00:52:26I wasn't lonely because of Ruth.
00:52:29She's my friend.
00:52:30They haven't changed a bit.
00:52:32It's hopeless.
00:52:33Friend?
00:52:34Come on.
00:52:35You were from a respectable family.
00:52:38Well, she was just the daughter of a struggling single mother.
00:52:42She was always pulling you down.
00:52:44You were just too naive to see it.
00:52:46My mother may have raised me by herself, but she gave me everything I needed.
00:52:51She made me feel worthy.
00:52:53Look at what you're wearing to the biggest concert Elville has ever seen.
00:52:58Mom, you are so wrong.
00:53:00You don't understand who Ruth is.
00:53:03I understand perfectly.
00:53:05Mom, please don't.
00:53:06Just look at her.
00:53:07I mean, she looks disheveled and pathetic.
00:53:10The bottom of the barrel.
00:53:13I don't understand why, after all these years, she came popping back into your life.
00:53:19Because, Mom, we had our class reunion yesterday.
00:53:22She actually traveled a long way just to see me.
00:53:25She was at the reunion?
00:53:26Let me guess.
00:53:28She's the reason the merger didn't go through with Barry.
00:53:30You should be happy that the wedding is off.
00:53:33Happy?
00:53:33We were on our way to becoming the most successful company in this city.
00:53:36And you destroyed everything.
00:53:38No, Jack.
00:53:39It was Barry who destroyed everything.
00:53:42He's a despicable cheater who treated your daughter like trash.
00:53:46Hm.
00:53:46There you go again.
00:53:47Once again, making her believe that you are the only one good enough for her.
00:53:52Doing what?
00:53:53It's exactly what you did back in high school.
00:53:56You ruined every chance Mona ever had of having good high school memories.
00:54:01Mom!
00:54:03It's true.
00:54:04Everyone stayed away from Mona because of you.
00:54:07I may be the daughter of the wealthy, respectable Robbins family, but you know what?
00:54:12To everyone else, I was just a freak.
00:54:14That's because you kept hanging out with her.
00:54:15If you'd listened to us and cut her off like we said, everything would have been fine.
00:54:20You know what?
00:54:21As a young girl, I wanted so badly for you to accept me.
00:54:26I was actually jealous of Mona for having a real family.
00:54:29For having everything.
00:54:31But then I quickly realized who you really are.
00:54:35Self-centered parents who never truly saw their own daughter.
00:54:39All you ever cared about was your money and status.
00:54:42How dare you, you insolent rat!
00:54:44My mother may have struggled, but she never struggled to see me.
00:54:49To support me, to be there for me.
00:54:52Somehow, the house that seemed to have nothing like you all said,
00:54:56actually had everything I needed.
00:55:02Don't you dare touch her.
00:55:04Dad.
00:55:06It's okay.
00:55:10I invited you here because you're Mona's parents.
00:55:13And because she's my best friend.
00:55:16I clearly, I made a mistake.
00:55:19Invited us?
00:55:20Who do you think you are?
00:55:22I'm many things.
00:55:23But above all, I am a human being that deserves to be treated with respect.
00:55:28You don't deserve our respect.
00:55:30We are the guests of honor of the Gold Queen and Jonathan Peters.
00:55:35You don't even belong here.
00:55:37Get out now.
00:55:39I had hoped I could forgive you both for trying to tear me away from my best friend.
00:55:44But you know what?
00:55:45You've run out of chances.
00:55:47You have no idea how big a mistake you just made.
00:55:51I think it's time you knew.
00:55:53You're only here because I invited you.
00:56:01I am the Gold Queen.
00:56:03What?
00:56:06You are completely out of your mind.
00:56:08Do you expect us to believe that this poor girl is the most successful singer in the world?
00:56:14Impossible.
00:56:15It's true, Mom.
00:56:17Ruth proved that talent and drive are so much stronger than any status.
00:56:22She climbed to the top all on her own.
00:56:25While everyone else was too busy looking down on her.
00:56:31Thank you, Mona.
00:56:33But look at you.
00:56:34The girl the kids tried to break back then.
00:56:37The one they laughed at.
00:56:38You proved just how brilliant and powerful you really are.
00:56:43I guess the two losers from high school ended up leaving everyone else in the dust.
00:56:48Yep.
00:56:50Make that three losers.
00:56:54Oh my God, it's Jonathan Peters!
00:56:56Ain't you beautiful?
00:56:57Yeah.
00:56:58I missed you.
00:56:59I missed you too.
00:57:02Um, am I late?
00:57:04Not at all.
00:57:05You're right on time.
00:57:07Governor Peters, it's an honor.
00:57:09My name is Jack and this is my wife Linda.
00:57:11We're Ramona's parents and special guests of the Gold Queen.
00:57:15I would love to sit and talk with you later, maybe about some business.
00:57:18Absolutely not, Dad.
00:57:20Jonathan and I are here to enjoy a concert together.
00:57:24No business.
00:57:27Ruth, the crowd's getting impatient. Let's go.
00:57:30One second.
00:57:34I don't understand what's going on here.
00:57:36What is there to understand, Dad?
00:57:38Ruth, the friend that you humiliated, shamed and insulted over and over again.
00:57:44Oh, and the only person who ever believed in me when no one else did?
00:57:47Yeah, she is the Gold Queen.
00:57:50The most successful singer on the planet.
00:57:53I'm so sorry.
00:57:55We didn't know.
00:57:58We tried to tell you, but your arrogance, your vanity,
00:58:03the shallow way that you judge people made you blind.
00:58:07You didn't only miss out on a massive opportunity with the Gold Queen.
00:58:11You lost me too.
00:58:18God.
00:58:24Gold Queen, Gold Queen, Gold Queen, Gold Queen, Gold Queen.
00:58:29Good evening, Alville.
00:58:33this is my first and hopefully not my last concert here in my hometown but you know
00:58:39yesterday afternoon i did something i thought i'd never have the courage to do
00:58:45i performed at my high school reunion but without this mask it was just me
00:58:53i was just ruth it was a strange and yet incredible feeling to finally be seen
00:58:59but then i realized i was never actually invisible i always had my best friend mona by my side
00:59:08she saw me truly saw me all along sometimes all you need is one true friend to finally believe in
00:59:16you so mona thank you i love you i couldn't have asked for a better best friend
00:59:26and i think it's about time to finally say goodbye to my golden mask
00:59:30no freaking way what do you guys think
00:59:59i'm still a queen right
01:00:21stars in your eyes a silent prayer
01:00:27i saw a world nobody dared
01:00:33two broken hearts and empty halls
01:00:37we were invisible
01:00:41to them all
01:00:45they laughed out loud
01:00:48we stayed quiet we stayed quiet we built a place they couldn't find
01:00:56and every tear and every scar we swore we'd make it who we are if they don't see us now
01:01:05they will someday they will someday stars in your eyes
01:01:11don't let them fade
01:01:13hold on to every dream we made
01:01:19hold on to every dream we made
01:01:32when we make it
