00:00:04Roger, I've secured you a spot in this math competition.
00:00:07With your talent, I'm sure you'll win.
00:00:09Just have your mom pay the $400 registration fee by the deadline.
00:00:22Have some breakfast before school, honey.
00:00:24Mom, where's yours?
00:00:26I already ate earlier, sweetheart.
00:00:47I'm heading to school. Love you, Mom.
00:00:49Goodbye, sweetheart.
00:01:15Linda, please. I just need $400. I'll pay you back next month.
00:01:20I swear.
00:01:21Jesus, Susan. You've got some nerve.
00:01:24Didn't I already tell you not to come begging at my door again?
00:01:27Yeah, Roger's my nephew. But I ain't your personal ATM.
00:01:31Roger's smart, Linda. Really smart.
00:01:33I just... I don't want him growing up with regrets.
00:01:38I got no money. Now get lost!
00:01:41You're pathetic.
00:01:43Got me looking so crazy right now. Your love's got me looking so crazy right now.
00:01:52Got me looking so crazy right now.
00:01:54This is ridiculous.
00:01:57I asked for two guys, not one. I've got customers waiting.
00:02:03Sir, if you're paying, I can do the work.
00:02:06You? This isn't like work. Even men struggle with these crates.
00:02:11I'm stronger than I look. Let me prove it.
00:02:14You're good.
00:03:02Mom, I'm home.
00:03:04Hey, baby.
00:03:05Come here.
00:03:06I got a surprise for you.
00:03:14Where'd you get the money?
00:03:15I got lucky.
00:03:16Big tips at the restaurant today.
00:03:18Mom, your shoulder.
00:03:19You're lying.
00:03:21It's just a little scrape.
00:03:23I'm fine, baby.
00:03:24Really.
00:03:25Now be a good boy.
00:03:26Take the money and go sign up tomorrow, yeah?
00:03:29I swear, Mom.
00:03:31I'm going to make so much money one day.
00:03:33You'll never have to work like this again.
00:03:39I know you will, baby.
00:03:41I know you will.
00:03:42What's the first thing you do once you are the richest person in the world?
00:03:47I want to see Mom.
00:03:58Yo, check this out.
00:04:00Susan's boy, Roger, is on the news.
00:04:03West Dream Corporation just broke the trillion-dollar mark.
00:04:07Young CEO Roger Brown is being hailed as the face of the future.
00:04:11But the real brain behind WD's empire remains a mystery.
00:04:16Roger's really killing it out there.
00:04:18Just a few years out of school and he's already running a major company.
00:04:20Right?
00:04:21Kid came from this little town and shot straight to the top.
00:04:23It's insane.
00:04:25Susan, you raised that boy all on your own after his father passed.
00:04:28That takes real strength.
00:04:29Now it's your turn to relax and enjoy the good life.
00:04:31I couldn't have done it without you guys.
00:04:33If you hadn't helped cover his tuition back then, Roger might have never made it to where
00:04:37he is now.
00:04:38Don't mention it.
00:04:39We've been grinding together for decades.
00:04:41You needed help?
00:04:42We showed up.
00:04:42That's what family's for.
00:04:43And Roger?
00:04:44He didn't waste it.
00:04:45He sure didn't.
00:04:46And I heard he's flying Susan out for his engagement party.
00:04:49An engagement party?
00:04:51That's amazing.
00:04:52I've dreamed about this for so long.
00:04:55It feels like I can finally look his daddy in the eye and say, we did it.
00:04:59Go and represent all of us and take our love with you.
00:05:02And don't forget to pack Roger's favorite hot sauce.
00:05:12Hey baby, can you believe it?
00:05:15Our boys getting engaged, you'd be so proud.
00:05:22You gave me this on our wedding day.
00:05:24It's my most precious thing.
00:05:25But I want to pass it on to Roger's girl.
00:05:28A blessing from both of us.
00:05:38Roger, sorry sweetheart.
00:05:40I should have listened to you.
00:05:42And have your car pick me up.
00:05:44Now I'm lost.
00:05:45It's okay mom.
00:05:46Don't worry.
00:05:48Just find a coffee shop and hang tight.
00:05:50I'm on my way.
00:05:51And hey, Vivian can't wait to meet you.
00:05:53I can't wait to meet her too.
00:06:00Hang tight.
00:06:01I'll be there in no time.
00:06:02Okay, sweetheart.
00:06:08Congrats boss.
00:06:09Land Westream and you're golden.
00:06:11Big raise, big win.
00:06:13Please.
00:06:14My cousin's dating Roger freaking Brown.
00:06:17CEO of Westream?
00:06:18This deal's already sealed.
00:06:26This is a high-end cafe, not a homeless shelter.
00:06:29What is she even doing here?
00:06:32I thought this street had a no homeless policy.
00:06:35Move it hobo.
00:06:36You're stinking up the whole shop.
00:06:44I'm not homeless.
00:06:45I'm just here waiting for my son.
00:06:47Then go sit in the bathroom.
00:06:52What?
00:06:53You need subtitles?
00:06:54I said move.
00:06:56I'm really not trying to cause trouble.
00:06:58There just aren't any other seats.
00:07:00People are literally losing their appetite.
00:07:03You should be grateful no one's tossed you out yet.
00:07:05You stink.
00:07:06All right, that's enough.
00:07:07This is a public place.
00:07:08She has every right to sit here.
00:07:09You don't get to treat people like that.
00:07:11Yeah, and we don't smell anything.
00:07:12She's fine.
00:07:13Oh, please.
00:07:14If you're feeling so generous, why don't you let her sit with you?
00:07:17I'm sure she'd love that.
00:07:18Look at her.
00:07:19Dragging around that filthy bag of who knows what.
00:07:21Wow.
00:07:22You look put together on the outside, but damn, what a rotten soul.
00:07:26Who the hell are you calling rotten?
00:07:27I'm just looking out for everyone.
00:07:29Nobody wants to sip a $20 latte with a side of dumpster fumes.
00:07:32It's fine.
00:07:33I'll go.
00:07:37Oh my God, you old hag!
00:07:38Did you see what you did?
00:07:40I'm so sorry.
00:07:41Get your filthy hands off me!
00:07:45I'm so sorry!
00:07:49Stop right there, you thieving bitch!
00:07:55Thief!
00:07:56Somebody get security.
00:07:57This old lady just stole my bracelet.
00:08:00No, no.
00:08:01You've got it all wrong.
00:08:03I didn't steal anything.
00:08:06Then what's that, huh?
00:08:08You're caught red-handed and still spewing lies?
00:08:10This is mine, I swear.
00:08:12You can't just accuse me like this.
00:08:14Please.
00:08:15That bracelet's custom-made.
00:08:17Limited edition.
00:08:18No offense, but she doesn't exactly scream luxury.
00:08:21Looks like a straight-up grab-and-go.
00:08:22You need a private invite just to see it, let alone buy it.
00:08:26And you look like you crawled in from the alley.
00:08:28No way in hell it's yours.
00:08:29Exactly.
00:08:30Even if you saved every dime your whole life, you still wouldn't afford that.
00:08:33Wow.
00:08:34And I actually felt sorry for her.
00:08:36I knew something was off.
00:08:37Bet she scoped out this place because she knew it's full of rich guys.
00:08:40Please don't say that.
00:08:41I didn't steal anything.
00:08:43I swear.
00:08:47Still lying?
00:08:48No.
00:08:49This is mine.
00:08:51My son gave it to me.
00:08:52Your son?
00:08:53What, did he rob a jewelry store?
00:08:55You're a hobo.
00:08:56Your son is probably a street criminal.
00:08:58Either way, that bracelet does not belong to you.
00:09:01Exactly.
00:09:02Probably raised a whole nest of pickpockets at home.
00:09:05Last chance, old hack.
00:09:07Admit it's mine or I'm calling the cops.
00:09:11No, you can't take what's mine.
00:09:15Still yapping?
00:09:17Stay down, you filthy hag.
00:09:23So that's it?
00:09:25Everyone just assumes I stole it?
00:09:27Did anyone actually see me take anything?
00:09:29Or is it just because I'm not walking around in designer heels and cacked in makeup?
00:09:33Since when does being poor make someone a criminal?
00:09:36You want proof?
00:09:37Cool.
00:09:38Let's do proof.
00:09:39Here.
00:09:39Take a good look.
00:09:41Official receipt from the boutique.
00:09:42Picture, serial number, date, price.
00:09:45Right there in black and white.
00:09:47You got yours, Grandma?
00:09:48I do.
00:09:49My son bought it.
00:09:50He has the receipt.
00:09:51I'll call him right now.
00:09:53No.
00:09:54No.
00:09:56It's dead.
00:09:57My phone's dead.
00:09:58This is getting sad.
00:09:59Just call the cops already.
00:10:01She's probably done this before.
00:10:02Good idea.
00:10:03And while we're at it, everyone, check your stuff.
00:10:06You think she only swiped from me?
00:10:07She's probably been picking pockets all morning.
00:10:09Who knows what's in that bag of hers?
00:10:15No.
00:10:16I'm just here to see my son.
00:10:18Oh, that's adorable.
00:10:20You missed your calling.
00:10:22You should be in Hollywood.
00:10:23You got a story for everything.
00:10:28That's for my son.
00:10:30It's his favorite.
00:10:31Why are you doing this?
00:10:34Well, that explains the smell.
00:10:35Jesus.
00:10:38Ugh.
00:10:39Who the hell eats that kind of junk?
00:10:43It kind of looks like she was just bringing stuff for her kid.
00:10:46I mean, if she came to steal, would she really be lugging around jars of hot sauce?
00:10:52Kind of doesn't add up, yeah?
00:11:02Well, well, well.
00:11:04What do we have here?
00:11:10No, please.
00:11:11Don't touch that.
00:11:17Oh, would you look at that?
00:11:20Still want to play innocent, you lying old hag?
00:11:23That's...
00:11:23Please.
00:11:24That's my wedding necklace.
00:11:26My husband gave it to me before he passed.
00:11:28Please, just give it back.
00:11:30Give me a break.
00:11:31That's the best you've got?
00:11:32A dead husband fairy tale?
00:11:34Try harder.
00:11:34First it's your son buying you designer bracelets.
00:11:37Now it's your dead husband dropping pearls from heaven?
00:11:39Lady, come on.
00:11:40You ain't fooling anybody.
00:11:41You're not some high society queen.
00:11:42You're just trash who can't even look in a mirror.
00:11:45Shit.
00:11:45Who keeps something that valuable next to jars of hot sauce?
00:11:48She's a total scam artist.
00:11:49No wonder your husband croaked.
00:11:51God probably got sick of your lying, thieving ass.
00:11:55Better kids at con, too.
00:11:57Gotta be real proud with a mom like that.
00:12:00I'm not a thief.
00:12:01The necklace, it's not stolen.
00:12:05The biggest pearl, it's engraved with my initial.
00:12:15Please, give it back.
00:12:18It's all I have left of him.
00:12:19So what?
00:12:20It's just an S.
00:12:22Could stand for anything.
00:12:23Sarah, Sophia, slut.
00:12:25Yeah, nice try.
00:12:27Anyone could memorize that detail after stealing it.
00:12:29You know what?
00:12:31Even if it is yours, I'm not giving it back.
00:12:34Ever.
00:12:37No!
00:12:38Give it back!
00:12:49Oh my god!
00:12:51The contract!
00:12:52Boss, that's the big one!
00:12:53It's ruined!
00:12:55It's ruined!
00:12:58It's ruined!
00:13:04You fucking bitch!
00:13:10Do you have any idea what you just destroyed?
00:13:13That deal's worth more than your whole fucking life.
00:13:18Get up!
00:13:20I didn't mean to.
00:13:23You shoved me.
00:13:24I said get up!
00:13:28Or I swear to god, I'll lose it.
00:13:32No!
00:13:33Please!
00:13:34Do it.
00:13:35After what she ruined, this is the least she deserves.
00:13:39No!
00:13:40No!
00:13:45No!
00:13:46No!
00:13:48No!
00:13:49No!
00:13:50No!
00:13:51No!
00:13:52No!
00:13:52No!
00:13:52No!
00:13:53No!
00:13:53No!
00:13:54No!
00:13:55No!
00:13:59We're sorry.
00:14:00The number you have dialed has been disconnected or is no longer in service.
00:14:06I can't reach my mom.
00:14:07Split up.
00:14:08She's nearby.
00:14:09Right away, boss.
00:14:13I can feel it.
00:14:20Please, just give me back the necklace.
00:14:23I swear, I'm not a thief.
00:14:25Aw, sweetie.
00:14:27You're not in a place to be asking for favors.
00:14:30Hand over the bracelet first.
00:14:34Now, please, can I have my necklace back?
00:14:45No!
00:14:53That's what you get for stealing, you nasty old bitch.
00:15:05Look at her, like some stray digging through trash.
00:15:08Next time, keep your filthy hands to yourself.
00:15:12You're lucky.
00:15:13We've got bigger fish to fry.
00:15:14We're heading to WD to seal a major deal.
00:15:17Otherwise, you'd be leaving in an ambulance.
00:15:22Wait, did you say WD?
00:15:23You're going to West Dream?
00:15:25You know Roger Brown?
00:15:28Wow.
00:15:29A filthy thief like you knows WD?
00:15:32And can even name their CEO?
00:15:33What are you, his laptop?
00:15:36Roger.
00:15:38Roger Brown's my son.
00:15:41I'm going with you to the office.
00:15:43My son will clear this out.
00:15:45That bracelet's mine.
00:15:47And I'm not going anywhere until my name's cleared.
00:15:52Vivian did say Mr. Brown's mom was flying in for the engagement.
00:15:55Could it really be her?
00:15:58You lying psycho.
00:16:00Now you're pretending to be the CEO's mom?
00:16:04Wait!
00:16:08Boss, seriously?
00:16:10You're not buying this, right?
00:16:13There's no way in hell Mr. Brown came from that.
00:16:16He runs a trillion dollar empire.
00:16:19You really think that mess is his mom?
00:16:21Some crusty thief off the street?
00:16:24Roger really is my son.
00:16:26We can go to WD right now.
00:16:28He'll tell you himself.
00:16:30Or just call him.
00:16:33He was supposed to pick me up.
00:16:36Roger Brown's on every magazine, every headline.
00:16:39She probably saw him on a damn billboard.
00:16:41She's bluffing.
00:16:42Trying to hustle me.
00:16:48Stealing wasn't enough?
00:16:49Now you're trying to pretend you're the CEO's mom?
00:16:51What kind of psycho-fantasy is that?
00:16:57You trash like you ought to know your place.
00:17:11Mom.
00:17:14Roger.
00:17:19Oh my god.
00:17:20It's him.
00:17:22That's really Roger Brown.
00:17:24And she...
00:17:25She's really his mom.
00:17:30Mom.
00:17:31What happened?
00:17:32Who did this to you?
00:17:43No.
00:17:44I can't let him know.
00:17:46If Roger finds out, he'll lose it.
00:17:48And tonight's his engagement party.
00:17:50I won't let him ruin something so important over me.
00:17:56I'm fine, honey.
00:17:57It's nothing.
00:17:59Someone in here messed with my mom.
00:18:01Who was it?
00:18:04Mom, tell me.
00:18:05You don't have to be scared.
00:18:07Just say the word and I'll make them pay.
00:18:09It's nothing.
00:18:10I slipped, that's all.
00:18:11The necklace, it broke.
00:18:12And the hot sauce I brought you.
00:18:16I'm sorry, sweetheart.
00:18:18Mom!
00:18:19I'm okay.
00:18:20Just tired.
00:18:22Can we go home?
00:18:23Mom!
00:18:26Mom!
00:18:27Mom!
00:18:32Mom!
00:18:33Mom!
00:18:33Mom!
00:18:36Mom!
00:18:37Mom!
00:18:38Mom!
00:18:43Boss!
00:18:44That old gribble she's getting into a Rolls Royce?
00:18:47Mom!
00:18:48Mom!
00:18:49Mom!
00:18:49You're seeing things.
00:18:50There's no way.
00:18:50Trash like her probably can't spell Rolls Royce.
00:19:02Let's go!
00:19:03We're on the clock!
00:19:09Mom!
00:19:15I've got an important meeting in a bit.
00:19:17Why don't you head up to my office and rest for a bit?
00:19:20Don't worry about me, sweetheart.
00:19:22Go do your thing.
00:19:23I'll be fine.
00:19:34Oh, no.
00:19:36Oh, no.
00:19:39Oh, no.
00:19:40Oh, no.
00:19:41Oh, no.
00:19:41Oh, no.
00:19:42Oh, no.
00:19:42Oh, no.
00:19:42Oh, no.
00:19:43Oh, no.
00:19:43Oh, no.
00:19:44Oh, no.
00:19:59Hello? You must be Miss Lisa?
00:20:03That's me. And you are?
00:20:07Name's Jimmy Davis, Assistant Director of Sales here at WD, and I've been dying to meet you.
00:20:11Sounds like someone did their homework. Dug up my family ties, too?
00:20:14Well, Assistant Director, technically. But hey, if this deal goes well, who knows?
00:20:18Maybe I finally get that corner office with a little help from someone as well-connected as you.
00:20:22Let's just say I like to know who I'm working with. Come on, Mr. Brown's expecting you.
00:20:51Damn, missed it. We'll just catch the next one.
00:20:54Wouldn't have missed it if that old hag hadn't slowed us down. Bet that contract would be signed by now,
00:20:59too.
00:21:00Ugh. This whole day's cursed.
00:21:02Old hag? What happened?
00:21:04Oh, we just ran into some filthy beaner at the coffee shop. Smelled like she hadn't showered in months.
00:21:10The old rat even had the nerve to steal my bracelet, but luckily I caught her.
00:21:16These bottom feeders really think the world owes them something. Always stealing shit right and left.
00:21:20We fired a janitor just yesterday. Caught her trying to make off with a company laptop.
00:21:26What this country needs is a real cleanup.
00:21:30Someone should be sending these low-class leeches as far away as possible.
00:21:35All they're good for is dragging down society and driving up crime rates.
00:21:41Right? I feel gross just breathing the same air as them.
00:21:47Alright, enough talk about those riffraff. Let's go close this deal.
00:22:01Mr. Brown, the meeting's about to start.
00:22:03Right. On my way.
00:22:06Just hang out here and relax, okay? I'll be back right after this meeting.
00:22:09Do what you need to do, sweetheart. Don't worry about me.
00:22:13By the way, where's Vivian? I thought I'd get to meet her today.
00:22:16Oh, she's drowning in last-minute prep for the engagement party.
00:22:19And she's got a meeting later, too.
00:22:21But as soon as we're both free, I'm bringing her up to meet you.
00:22:23Well, you two workaholics really are made for each other. Go on, then.
00:22:29My boy.
00:22:31Even on his engagement day, he's still working his tail off.
00:22:34And he found himself a fiancé who's just like him.
00:22:37I just know they'll build a beautiful life together.
00:22:46I know.
00:22:52Mr. Brown, your guests have arrived.
00:22:56Good morning, Mr. Brown.
00:22:58I'm Lisa Smith, sales manager at 3CF.
00:23:02Move it, hobo! You're stinking up the whole shop!
00:23:07Cease! Somebody get security!
00:23:08This old lady just stole my bracelet!
00:23:11I'm so sorry we're late, Mr. Brown.
00:23:14I hope we haven't upset you.
00:23:15Yes, sir, we...
00:23:20You two!
00:23:21This is Roger Brown's office.
00:23:23That's his chair.
00:23:25And she... she's sitting in it.
00:23:27Oh, God.
00:23:28Is she really his mother?
00:23:29I'm dead!
00:23:30I'm sorry, I didn't know.
00:23:31I had no idea you were telling the truth!
00:23:34Boss, why are you apologizing to her?
00:23:36She's just some filthy thief.
00:23:38Shh!
00:23:39That's Mr. Brown's mother, you idiot.
00:23:40How else would she be sitting in his office?
00:23:42No!
00:23:45Oh, my God.
00:23:47She wasn't lying.
00:23:52I'm sorry. I'm so sorry, ma'am.
00:23:59Ma'am, it was all just a misunderstanding.
00:24:02Really, this deal with WD, it means everything to me.
00:24:07I'll make it up to you however you want.
00:24:09Just please don't let this affect the contract.
00:24:12Yes, absolutely.
00:24:13We're very sorry for how we behaved earlier.
00:24:16It's fine.
00:24:17If you're working with Roger's partners, and I know he sees his partners as friends, I won't say anything to
00:24:24him.
00:24:25Oh, that's wonderful. Thank you, ma'am.
00:24:29Pardon me, Ms. Smith, but I think you've got the wrong person.
00:24:32This woman here isn't the CEO's mother.
00:24:34Mr. Brown's mom got lost on her way over. She's not even here yet.
00:24:37What? Really?
00:24:39Yes. And plus, just look at this broke, wrinkled woman. What a sorry sight. Roger Brown would never let his
00:24:48mother walk in here looking like a damn stray dog.
00:24:51That's right. Roger's mom is here to attend his engagement party.
00:24:55Sure, maybe she'd prefer to stay low-key, but there's no way she'd show up looking like some soggy gutter
00:25:00rat.
00:25:01Unbelievable. What's your deal? You crusty old leech. You stalking us now or something?
00:25:07Mr. Davis, this is her. That filthy thief who stole my bracelet at the cafe. And now she's snuck into
00:25:14the Westream headquarters.
00:25:16What?
00:25:19Nasty old bitch.
00:25:21Mrs. Smith here is the cousin of Westream's VP. You really thought you could mess with her and get away
00:25:27with it? Someone ought to put you in your place.
00:25:29I didn't steal anything, sir. And I really am Roger's mother.
00:25:36We're putting up a front, huh? You think you can just strut in here and slap a fake name on
00:25:41yourself? Who the hell are you anyways?
00:25:43Trash like you never should have gotten past security.
00:25:46No, no, no, no.
00:25:48I need it.
00:25:53See? Roger brought me here. I'm his mother, I swear.
00:25:58Again with the lies? I've never seen such a shameless bullshitter in my life.
00:26:03Answer me!
00:26:05What the fuck are you doing in Mr. Brown's office?
00:26:10I'm telling the truth. I didn't do anything wrong.
00:26:13Oh, I know.
00:26:15She's here to steal.
00:26:16What else would a serial thief be doing in the CEO's office?
00:26:19Oh!
00:26:20Exactly!
00:26:21She's just in here snooping around for his valuables.
00:26:25No, no.
00:26:26I'm not.
00:26:27I was just resting here while Roger's in a meeting.
00:26:30Wait, now I remember.
00:26:31You're the janitor we fired yesterday for stealing that laptop, aren't you?
00:26:35You're mad you got sacked.
00:26:37So now you're back to rob us blind!
00:26:39Don't go easy on her, Mr. Davis.
00:26:41Stealing my bracelet's one thing, but laying her hands on company property?
00:26:44That's on a whole different level.
00:26:46What a golden opportunity.
00:26:47If I catch her stealing from the CEO's office, that promotion's practically mine.
00:27:02Hand the stolen goods over.
00:27:04Now!
00:27:05I didn't steal anything.
00:27:08And I'm not that janitor you're talking about.
00:27:12Yeah, right.
00:27:12You poor folk are all the same.
00:27:14Get fired one day, come crawling back the next.
00:27:17Thought you'd make off with some loot?
00:27:19Not with me around, you won't.
00:27:20Please!
00:27:21Why don't you believe me?
00:27:23Stupid old cow.
00:27:24Really almost had me fooled earlier.
00:27:26And to think I fucking apologized to her.
00:27:29I'm not walking away until this bitch gets eviscerated.
00:27:33Mr. Davis, women like her aren't just shitty employees.
00:27:37They're treacherous scammers who lie and cheat their way to life.
00:27:42You need to knock her down a peg.
00:27:44Damn straight.
00:27:45People like her are rotten from birth.
00:27:48They're the lowest form of humanity.
00:27:50So we might as well treat them like it.
00:27:54I didn't...
00:27:55I didn't steal anything!
00:27:58And no one's born rotten.
00:28:00They just get corrupted by violent, immoral people like you!
00:28:06You think you're in a position to lecture us?
00:28:08You don't know shit about how the world works!
00:28:10I'm Roger's mother.
00:28:12I tried to tell you...
00:28:14Jesus, you're a broken fucking record!
00:28:16Fine!
00:28:16If you can't keep the CEO's name out that dirty mouth of yours,
00:28:19I'll just have to shut it!
00:28:37Disguising herself as the CEO's family just to get a free lunch?
00:28:41She should have known this could only end one way.
00:28:44Seriously, we're hip to your tricks, you pathetic liar.
00:28:49You still the boss's mom now?
00:28:52Yeah, that's what I thought you didn't fucking see.
00:28:57I'm finally meeting Roger's mom later today.
00:29:00What do you think would make the best gift?
00:29:02Well, I'm sure Mr. Brown's mother is a very distinguished, worldly woman.
00:29:07You should go with something high-end.
00:29:10Something befitting for a woman of her stature that also shows your sincerity.
00:29:13Good call.
00:29:16Ooh, these vintage earrings are nice.
00:29:19But do they feel a little too...
00:29:22old-fashioned?
00:29:23Don't overthink it, Mrs. Thomas.
00:29:25She's gonna love whatever you give her.
00:29:27How can I not overthink this?
00:29:29Lucy, you only get one first impression.
00:29:32If I want to lock down Roger, winning his mom over is the first step.
00:29:35Ma'am, you're already his fiancé.
00:29:38I'm pretty sure you have him locked down already.
00:29:40That's where you're wrong, Lucy.
00:29:41The competition never ends.
00:29:44If you don't stay one step ahead, you lose.
00:29:47Learn that early, and someday you'll be the one giving orders.
00:29:51Wrap these earrings up for me.
00:30:02Really?
00:30:03You can't even handle this one simple task?
00:30:06I'm sorry.
00:30:07Fuck you.
00:30:14Babe, listen, I had another meeting come up last minute, so I'm gonna be late to my appointment
00:30:20with your cousin, Lisa.
00:30:21Can you meet with her and sign the contract for me?
00:30:24Of course, sweetheart.
00:30:25Anything you need.
00:30:26And hey, I finished all the prep for tonight's engagement party.
00:30:30I really hope your mom has a good time.
00:30:32Don't worry.
00:30:32She's gonna love it.
00:30:33All right, then.
00:30:34See you in a bit, Mr. Busy B.
00:30:40Mr. Brown, here are the briefing materials for your next meeting.
00:30:44Sir, the finance world is buzzing with news again today.
00:30:47Everyone's dying to know who's really behind Westream.
00:30:50I was thinking, maybe it's time you finally let the cat out the bag.
00:30:53At the very least, it would drive up sales and bring more publicity to new products.
00:30:57Emily, you know me.
00:30:59I want this company judged by the quality of its products, not by who owns it.
00:31:03That's why I stay out of the spotlight.
00:31:05Sir, I know you started out as the hardworking CEO who was always in the trenches with the
00:31:10rest of the staff.
00:31:10But you bought Westream outright three years ago.
00:31:13People deserve to know, especially people inside the company.
00:31:16Come on.
00:31:17My title doesn't matter to our employees.
00:31:19The one person who deserves to know is Vivian.
00:31:21I'll tell her tonight.
00:31:22Now that we're getting married, there should be no secrets between us.
00:31:25She's going to be florbed when she hears the news.
00:31:30Just hope she doesn't pass out on me.
00:31:40Talk.
00:31:41What the hell did you steal?
00:31:43You're not walking out of this room until you hand it over.
00:31:47Yeah, I can understand a cheap old hag like you taking my bracelet.
00:31:51But stealing from a trillion dollar corporation, that's not a game you want to play.
00:31:57I didn't steal anything.
00:31:59Fucking hell.
00:32:01She must really love getting beaten.
00:32:11Stop!
00:32:20What the hell are you all doing in Roger's office?
00:32:36I'm sorry.
00:32:37Miss Thomas.
00:32:42Vivian.
00:32:43What's going on in here?
00:32:44We caught that fucking bean all snooping around in here, that's what.
00:32:47Mr. Davis was just getting her to hand over what she stole.
00:32:50That's right, ma'am.
00:32:51She's that thieving janitor we fired yesterday.
00:32:54She just snuck back in, probably trying to rob the place to get back at us.
00:32:57I was just in the middle of interrogating her.
00:33:06Don't let her dirty up Roger's office.
00:33:09Understood, ma'am.
00:33:12Vivian.
00:33:20Vivian.
00:33:21It's me.
00:33:22Roger's mother.
00:33:23You?
00:33:24You're Roger's mother?
00:33:26Yes.
00:33:26He showed me your picture.
00:33:28I recognized you right away.
00:33:33Holy shit.
00:33:34Is she actually the boss's mom?
00:33:37But wait.
00:33:38Miss Thomas doesn't look too convinced.
00:33:41Maybe that old hag's just bluffing again.
00:33:44God, is she for real?
00:33:45Fuck.
00:33:46Whatever.
00:33:47Mr. Davis is the one that smacked her around anyways.
00:33:49If it gets messy, I'll just dump the blame on him.
00:33:52Vivian, please.
00:33:54Talk to them for me.
00:33:56Tell them I'm not a thief.
00:33:57I've never stolen anything in my life.
00:34:00Hold on a second.
00:34:03Hold on a second.
00:34:04You said you saw a photo of me, so which one was it then?
00:34:07It was one from you and Roger's vacation last month.
00:34:11You were standing on the beach.
00:34:14Well, that tracks.
00:34:15We spent a few days at an island resort last month.
00:34:18I'm sorry.
00:34:19I'm so sorry, ma'am.
00:34:20I didn't know.
00:34:21I can't believe I thought you were an intruder.
00:34:23A thief.
00:34:23God, I'm a first class fool.
00:34:26Oh, God.
00:34:27I've really done it now.
00:34:28No, wait.
00:34:28I'm not going down like this.
00:34:30I cannot lose this fucking contract.
00:34:33Vivian, please.
00:34:34It's the CEO's office, you know?
00:34:36I was just being careful.
00:34:37I never meant to offend anyone.
00:34:39Just don't hold it against me, okay?
00:34:40Here, I'll apologize to her right now.
00:34:42Not yet.
00:34:43Not yet.
00:34:48If you really saw my photo, then tell me, what color dress was I wearing?
00:34:52I think it was blue.
00:34:56I can't remember exactly, but I saw it.
00:34:59I swear, Roger sent it to me.
00:35:05Was it this one?
00:35:08Oh, yes.
00:35:09The one he sent me looked just like that, right?
00:35:12It was a white dress.
00:35:13Of course.
00:35:15You're not Roger's mother.
00:35:18You're lying.
00:35:19That photo was taken by the paparazzi.
00:35:21Why would Roger send you that instead of one of the hundreds of selfies of us on his phone?
00:35:26You just saw it in a tabloid and tried to use it as evidence that you know me.
00:35:29That's it.
00:35:30Tell me who the hell you really are.
00:35:31No, the one he sent me.
00:35:33It wasn't that exact photo.
00:35:35I think Roger took it himself.
00:35:38Here, I have it saved.
00:35:47Quit pretending.
00:35:48A woman like you, you don't even have the right to utter Roger's name, let alone call yourself his mother.
00:35:55Please, I'm his mother.
00:35:57What do I have to do to make you believe me?
00:36:00Shut it.
00:36:01Look at yourself.
00:36:02If you're going to say you're the CEO's mom, at least dress like it.
00:36:06One more word about my fiancé or his mom and I'll have security drag you out by your fucking hair.
00:36:15Brody old hag.
00:36:17First you steal company property, and now you're trying to impersonate the CEO's mother?
00:36:22No.
00:36:24Please just listen to me.
00:36:26Worthless fucking fossil.
00:36:28If it wasn't for you, I'd have my contract signed by now.
00:36:32Mrs. Thomas, how do you suggest we handle this piece of human filthy?
00:36:35Vivian, trespassing in the CEO's office is a serious offense.
00:36:39She needs to be punished accordingly.
00:36:40Exactly.
00:36:41Just scavenging around for cash is one thing.
00:36:43But what if she gets her hands on some confidential corporate intel?
00:36:46That's a federal crime.
00:36:48I told you I didn't take anything.
00:36:51Roger will clear this out.
00:36:53Just let me go, Jim.
00:36:55She's trying to escape.
00:36:56Stop her!
00:36:58Making a run for it, are we?
00:37:00You're not going anywhere, Grandma.
00:37:01Let me go.
00:37:03I'm just going to see my son.
00:37:10There!
00:37:11Now she'll finally shut up.
00:37:15Want me to search her?
00:37:16See what she's trying to run off with?
00:37:17Not here.
00:37:18Roger would be none too pleased if we made a mess of his office.
00:37:21Have security take her out and tell them to strip her down if they have to.
00:37:25Security!
00:37:27Yes, sir.
00:37:28Take this filthy hag downstairs and search every inch of her.
00:37:32And if she's trying to smuggle anything out, make sure she pays for it.
00:37:40Wait!
00:37:40Cover her face.
00:37:41I don't want her seeing anything else in the building.
00:37:43For all we know, she's here to spy on us and leak secrets to our competitors.
00:37:47Great call, ma'am.
00:37:49You're the VP for a reason.
00:37:51Go with them.
00:37:52If they find anything, update me immediately.
00:37:54Also, keep this whole thing on the down low.
00:37:58Roger's mom will be here soon, and we don't want anything sourning her arrival.
00:38:01Understood.
00:38:11Stop.
00:38:14What's this all about?
00:38:16Oh, Mr. Brown.
00:38:17This is part of a workplace security drill.
00:38:20Just a simulation exercise, sir.
00:38:22Girl, come back!
00:38:27Who's under the bag?
00:38:28Oh, just someone we hired.
00:38:31We're using a professional actor to roleplay an intruder for the drill.
00:38:35You know, to make it more realistic.
00:38:37Realism is fine, but don't go too rough on that actor.
00:38:39I don't want anyone getting hurt.
00:38:40Of course, sir.
00:38:41We're being careful.
00:38:57Mr. Brown, wait.
00:38:59The bag's filthy.
00:39:00You shouldn't touch it.
00:39:01Then why the hell is it over someone's head?
00:39:03I don't care if it's just a drill.
00:39:05You can't treat people like garbage.
00:39:08Take it off.
00:39:09Sir, sir, she asked for it.
00:39:11Said it'd help her get into the role.
00:39:12We paid her extra.
00:39:14She wanted to go all in.
00:39:17If that's what she asked for, then fine.
00:39:19But don't push it.
00:39:26Move.
00:39:27Now.
00:39:33Better keep quiet, you dried up bitch.
00:39:36One more sound and I'll shut you up for good.
00:39:47Hold it right there.
00:39:52I forgot to ask about Vivian.
00:39:55Everything good on her end?
00:39:56Yes, sir.
00:39:57She's handling the contract signing of 3CF right now.
00:39:59And once that's done, she'll head straight to the engagement party.
00:40:02The venue's all set up and ready to go.
00:40:04Good.
00:40:10Vivian, today has been nothing but chaos.
00:40:12What do you say we call Roger over and have him sign before anything else comes up?
00:40:16No need for that.
00:40:18Roger already put me in charge of this deal.
00:40:20I came here to sign on his behalf.
00:40:22Really?
00:40:22Oh my god, thank you!
00:40:27Not bad, Lisa.
00:40:28Your work's improving.
00:40:29At this rate, 3CF will be promoting you in no time.
00:40:32Well, hey, I'll have you to thank for giving me my big break.
00:40:35This contract is huge for me.
00:40:37Let me grab a pen.
00:40:39You're all invited to the engagement party tonight.
00:40:42Roger's mom is coming to town for the first time and I'm sure she would love to meet you.
00:40:45Miss Thomas, thank you.
00:40:47It's truly an honor.
00:40:48This contract's just the beginning.
00:40:50I'll be relying on you and Lisa to stay on top of things from here on out.
00:40:53Absolutely, Mayhem.
00:40:54You can count on us.
00:41:05What kind of pen is it?
00:41:07It's diamond-stettled.
00:41:09I had it custom-made for his birthday.
00:41:11He always keeps it here.
00:41:12Diamond-stettled?
00:41:14Shit, that's got to be worth like five figures.
00:41:17Wait.
00:41:18Do you think...
00:41:21That thief!
00:41:23I knew she was up to no good.
00:41:24You two hold tight.
00:41:25I'll bring her back here right now.
00:41:28Look what the cat dragged in, Mrs. Thomas.
00:41:38Did Roger clear everything up?
00:41:40Did he tell you who I am?
00:41:42You thieving hag!
00:41:44You think we don't know why you came here?
00:41:45Hand over the damn pen!
00:41:47What?
00:41:47What pen?
00:41:51Cut the act, Grandma.
00:41:53You stole the CEO's diamond-stretched pen, a birthday gift to Mr. Brown from the vice
00:41:57president herself.
00:41:59That thing's priceless.
00:42:00I don't know what you're talking about.
00:42:01I promise you, I've never even seen that pen.
00:42:04You lying sack of shit!
00:42:06We were going to use that pen to sign my fucking contract.
00:42:08Hand it over!
00:42:09I don't have it.
00:42:10Please, this is all a mistake.
00:42:12No, I didn't take Roger's pen.
00:42:13You've got this all wrong.
00:42:15Hold her down.
00:42:19Of all the things to steal, you picked my most precious gift to Roger.
00:42:23You'll be lucky to walk out of here alive.
00:42:25Stop!
00:42:26Why are you doing this?
00:42:27Why won't any of you believe me?
00:42:29Are you kidding?
00:42:31Everything about you literally screams, I'm a thief!
00:42:34Quit your whining and hand over Mr. Brown's pen.
00:42:37Maybe then we'll let you out in one piece.
00:42:42I don't have it.
00:42:45I swear to God, I don't have it.
00:42:48Stubborn old bitch!
00:42:49You think we're just fucking around here?
00:42:51Get me a bucket of water!
00:42:53Now!
00:42:58Lift her up.
00:43:04That pen isn't just expensive, it's the first gift I ever gave Roger.
00:43:09It's irreplaceable.
00:43:10So you better cough it up now before I go apeshit on your ass.
00:43:14I didn't take it.
00:43:25Hey, just checking in.
00:43:27How's the contract signing going?
00:43:29All good so far.
00:43:30We'll be done any minute now.
00:43:33Roger, you have to save me.
00:43:39Was that mom?
00:43:42What was that?
00:43:43Oh, that sound?
00:43:44I was just changing the water in your vase, that's all.
00:43:48I could have sworn I just heard someone crying out for help.
00:43:56You must be overworked, babe.
00:43:58Maybe squeeze in a nap this afternoon, okay?
00:44:10Yeah, we'll see.
00:44:12Anyways, feel free to sweeten the deal with Lisa, as long as it's within reason, of course.
00:44:16You know, seeing as she's your cousin and all.
00:44:18That's so generous of you.
00:44:19She'll be thrilled.
00:44:21Roger, you're the best.
00:44:22Don't mention it.
00:44:27Wrinkly old bitch, you almost fucked this up for all of us.
00:44:30Get it through your head.
00:44:31No one's going to save you.
00:44:33Give us that damn pen right now, or I'll dunk your head again.
00:44:36And this time, you won't come back up.
00:44:40Are you fucking kidding me?
00:44:42I didn't steal.
00:44:44I'm not a thief.
00:44:47I've got the pen.
00:44:49Mr. Brown used it this morning to sign the quarterly records.
00:44:53He handed it to me right after.
00:44:57Oh, well, that explains it.
00:44:59I was afraid Roger lost it or something.
00:45:03Good to see you, Miss Anderson.
00:45:05Who is this lady?
00:45:07Why are you guys acting all weird around her?
00:45:10That's Emily Anderson, Roger's personal assistant.
00:45:13I know, not the highest position.
00:45:14But she's the only one in this entire building that knows who really owns the company.
00:45:27What's all this?
00:45:30And why are you all in the CEO's office?
00:45:32We're in the middle of catching a thief, Mrs. Anderson.
00:45:35This woman here snuck into Roger's office and tried to make off with some loot.
00:45:40That's not true.
00:45:42I'm not a thief.
00:45:43Shut the fuck up.
00:45:45You guys got proof?
00:45:47Um, not yet, but...
00:45:50Then nothing's confirmed.
00:45:51Listen, Westream has a security team.
00:45:54People whose job it is to deal with matters like this.
00:46:02This is the CEO's office, not a torture chamber.
00:46:05Yes, of course.
00:46:07Oh, by the way, Mr. Brown asked me to finalize the 3CF deal.
00:46:10We were just about to sign the contract.
00:46:11Yes, Ms. Anderson.
00:46:12I'm Lisa Smith, the sales manager over at 3CF.
00:46:15We're here today to lock in the partnership.
00:46:19Mr. Brown's meeting should be wrapping up any minute.
00:46:21I suggest you all head to the banquet hall and wait for him there.
00:46:24Perfect.
00:46:24We'll bring the contract and sign it in the banquet hall.
00:46:27Escort her out.
00:46:28And give me a full report once they investigate her.
00:46:30Yes, ma'am.
00:46:32And get someone to clean up this mess.
00:46:34I want this room spotless.
00:46:35Yes, certainly.
00:46:40Let's go.
00:46:42Ma'am, we're going to need to take you in for questioning.
00:46:48What the hell are you doing to my mother?
00:46:55Sir, she was just...
00:46:57She's my mother!
00:47:09Ma'am.
00:47:12What the hell happened to you?
00:47:13Roger, I don't want to go to the party anymore.
00:47:16Can you just take me home?
00:47:20Did someone hurt you?
00:47:26Who did this?
00:47:31It was the vice president, sir.
00:47:34Vivian did this to her?
00:47:36But why?
00:47:37Vivian's cousin, Lisa.
00:47:39She said your mom was a thief.
00:47:41I thought your fiancé would be warm, kind.
00:47:44But she...
00:47:45She's awful, Roger.
00:47:47I tried to tell her who I was, but she wouldn't listen.
00:47:50Un-fucking-believable.
00:47:52Tell Emily to prepare the car.
00:47:54We're going to the banquet now.
00:47:55Yes, sir.
00:48:18Boss, this engagement party is off the chain.
00:48:22Half the city's big names are here.
00:48:24Well, yeah, that's a given.
00:48:26Roger Brown's a rising star in the business world, and Vivian's parents are heavyweight investors in their own right.
00:48:32This isn't just some party, Jessica.
00:48:34It could shake up the whole damn stock market.
00:48:43Congrats, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas.
00:48:45Roger's a real catch.
00:48:46Vivian's done well for herself.
00:48:48I couldn't care less about his money or status.
00:48:51What matters is that my daughter's happy.
00:48:53Spoken like a true girl, Dad.
00:48:55You've always been her biggest supporter.
00:48:57Miss Thomas is here!
00:49:15Vivian, you look like a queen.
00:49:22Thank you all so much for being here on this special day.
00:49:25And please, enjoy the food and drinks.
00:49:27The ceremony will begin shortly.
00:49:33Mom, Dad, I'm so glad you could make it.
00:49:37We wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:49:39You look stunning.
00:49:40That's just because of the necklace I picked out for her.
00:49:44You like it, sweetheart?
00:49:47It's perfect, Dad.
00:49:50Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Roger Brown has arrived.
00:50:11Whoa, what the hell?
00:50:13Dude, he's pissed.
00:50:14That is not the face of a man who's about to get engaged.
00:50:18Right?
00:50:19He looks like he's here to throw hands, not throw a party.
00:50:22And why is he rolling up with bodyguards and shit?
00:50:24Man, the Thomas family isn't going to like this.
00:50:27To be honest, though, if I were the West Stream CEO,
00:50:29I'd probably be pulling power moves like that, too.
00:50:31Oh, come on.
00:50:32Let's not get carried away.
00:50:33The guy's a CEO, not a fucking royal prince.
00:50:35Exactly.
00:50:36He needs to slow his roll.
00:50:37This place is filled with people who rake in just as much as he does.
00:50:44So this is how you greet your elders, huh?
00:50:46With a scowl and a squad of bodyguards?
00:50:49Dad, relax.
00:50:50He probably just rushed over, that's all.
00:50:56Roger, what's wrong?
00:50:57Where's your mom?
00:51:15What the fuck are you doing here?
00:51:19You crusty old hag.
00:51:22This is an exclusive event, not a soup kitchen.
00:51:25Get the hell out!
00:51:29Mr. Brown?
00:51:31What was that for?
00:51:32You tell me.
00:51:35Oh, I get it.
00:51:37This granny must have fed you some sob story, right?
00:51:40Sir, trust me.
00:51:41Everything she told you was a lie.
00:51:43But don't worry, Mr. Brown.
00:51:44I'll put an end to this once and for all.
00:51:46Oh!
00:51:49Oh!
00:51:55Roger, what the hell has gotten into you?
00:51:57It's just like Jimmy said.
00:51:58This lady's a thief, a worthless street rat.
00:52:01So whatever you're doing, just stop.
00:52:03It's an insult to my parents and everyone else here.
00:52:05A thief?
00:52:06A street rat?
00:52:06As VP of Westream, that's your official assessment?
00:52:09Mr. Brown, I can vouch for Vivian.
00:52:12That woman's a thief.
00:52:21Roger, what the fuck is going on?
00:52:23Say it again, Lisa.
00:52:25Say it to my face.
00:52:27Who's the thief?
00:52:28Mr. Brown?
00:52:30There must be some kind of misunderstanding.
00:52:33Roger, enough.
00:52:34This place is full of VIP guests.
00:52:36It isn't the time for theatrics.
00:52:38Actually, I think it's the perfect time.
00:52:39Hand me the contract.
00:52:43You're fired.
00:52:45No, Mr. Brown.
00:52:47Please don't do this.
00:52:49After what you did to her, you can forget about ever partnering with Westream Corporation.
00:52:54You.
00:52:54You did this!
00:52:56You set me up!
00:52:57You cognizing old-
00:52:58If I were you, I'd lower your goddamn finger.
00:53:00I didn't set you up.
00:53:01I didn't have to.
00:53:02You did what you did and now you're facing the consequences.
00:53:05Roger, are you seriously humiliating my cousin over some binong?
00:53:08This cousin of yours brutalized a defenseless old woman,
00:53:11mocked her, dehumanized her, and accused her of theft with zero proof.
00:53:14Tell me, is that the type of person we should be doing business with?
00:53:17Accused her of theft?
00:53:18We all know that bitch stole my bracelet.
00:53:27Wait.
00:53:28This-
00:53:29This bracelet.
00:53:30You bought it?
00:53:31I bought it for the woman standing next to me.
00:53:33My mother.
00:53:39Roger.
00:53:40Her?
00:53:42She's your mom?
00:53:43My future mother-in-law?
00:53:46No.
00:53:47Roger.
00:53:48I'm sorry.
00:53:49I-I-I didn't know.
00:53:50I had no clue she was your mother.
00:53:51This is the woman who raised me.
00:53:53Fed me.
00:53:54Tucked me into bed at night.
00:53:55And you have the nerve to suggest I'm just making all this up to humiliate your cousin?
00:53:59No.
00:54:00No.
00:54:02Roger.
00:54:02That's not what I meant.
00:54:06I'm so sorry, Mr. Brown.
00:54:09I didn't know she was your mother.
00:54:10I was wrong.
00:54:11I should have been more discerning.
00:54:13I-All I ask is that you give me one more chance.
00:54:16Yes, Mr. Brown.
00:54:17We didn't mean any harm.
00:54:19Just please, please don't ruin us over this.
00:54:25Mrs. Brown.
00:54:26I'm sorry.
00:54:28I didn't mean to disrespect you.
00:54:31Please forgive me.
00:54:32No.
00:54:33You're only apologizing because you found out she's my mother.
00:54:36If she were just a stranger, just another woman on the street, would you still begging for forgiveness like this?
00:54:44That's what I thought.
00:54:45Now get the hell out.
00:54:49Vivian.
00:54:50Vivian, please, say something.
00:54:53This contract is everything to me.
00:54:55I promised my boss I would seal the deal if I go back empty-handed.
00:54:59He'll fire me.
00:55:02Leave, Lisa.
00:55:04We'll talk later.
00:55:09Please, Viv.
00:55:10Please don't do this to me.
00:55:12Just go.
00:55:19You two.
00:55:20Out.
00:55:21Yes, Miss Thomas.
00:55:24Don't move!
00:55:25You're not just walking out of here after all that you did.
00:55:31Ma'am, I'm terribly sorry.
00:55:33I already regret how I treated you.
00:55:36Please, please show me some mercy.
00:55:43Take this criminal to the police station along with the surveillance footage from my office.
00:55:47Assaulting an elderly woman should land him a nice long vacation behind bars.
00:55:51Yes, sir.
00:55:54Mr. Brown, please.
00:55:56I screwed up.
00:55:56I swear I'll make it right.
00:55:58Get him out of my sight.
00:55:59Mr. Brown, I'm begging you.
00:56:01Whatever you want, I'll do it.
00:56:02Just please don't send me to jail.
00:56:11Mrs. Brown, I can't tell you how sorry I am.
00:56:13This was supposed to be a happy day, and I know things didn't go as planned,
00:56:17but I hope you won't hold it against me.
00:56:20Lucy, bring over the gift.
00:56:24I picked these out for you as a welcome gift.
00:56:27I hope you find them to your liking.
00:56:30Didn't go as planned?
00:56:33You and your cousin put my mother through a day straight from hell.
00:56:37But things just didn't go as planned?
00:56:41Roger, let it go.
00:56:42It was a misunderstanding.
00:56:44Okay, look at her.
00:56:45She's dressed up so beautifully tonight.
00:56:47All for you.
00:56:47No, it's not for me.
00:56:48It's just for show.
00:56:49Vivian, you looked down on my mom.
00:56:50You called her a street rat.
00:56:51So what does that make me, then?
00:56:52The street rat son that she worked day and night to raise by herself?
00:56:55Roger, please.
00:56:58The guests are all waiting.
00:57:00They didn't come here to see us bigger about personal matters like this.
00:57:03Let's just cut the cake and take photos, and then we'll talk after, okay?
00:57:13Bring out the cake.
00:57:20Roger, don't be mad, all right?
00:57:22We can sit down and talk it over after everyone leaves.
00:57:26For now, let's just put on a big smile and enjoy our perfect moment.
00:57:31Actually, you know what would make this moment?
00:57:34Showing the guests hear every little thing you did to my mother.
00:57:52That pen isn't just expensive.
00:57:55It's the first gift I ever gave Roger.
00:57:57It's irreplaceable.
00:57:58So you better cough it up now before I go ape shit on your ass.
00:58:01I didn't take it.
00:58:05Oh, my God.
00:58:06Is that what it looks like?
00:58:08She's torturing her future mother-in-law?
00:58:10This is so much worse than I thought.
00:58:12She really could have hurt her.
00:58:14Wonder Roger lost it.
00:58:16That was my mom.
00:58:17Whoever did that to her would be in the hospital by now.
00:58:21Roger, please.
00:58:23Turn it off.
00:58:25No one was supposed to see this.
00:58:28So now you feel ashamed, huh?
00:58:32Where was this when you were busy trying to drown my mother?
00:58:34Roger, my parents are watching, for God's sake.
00:58:37What are you trying to do?
00:58:38Apologize to my mother right now.
00:58:40What?
00:58:40Babe, of course I'll apologize to her later.
00:58:43But I can't stand back and let you publicly humiliate me like this.
00:58:46You heard what I said.
00:58:48Don't make me repeat it.
00:58:49Mrs. Brown, please.
00:58:51Make him turn it off.
00:58:53You're a kind woman.
00:58:54You understand how bad this looks for me and my family, right?
00:59:00Roger, don't you think this has gone far enough?
00:59:02Vivian and I just got off on the wrong foot.
00:59:04That's all.
00:59:05This is your big nay.
00:59:07Let's forget about it and carry on with the party.
00:59:11Mom, you still want me to get engaged to this woman?
00:59:15Vivian and I just got off on the wrong foot.
00:59:17That's all.
00:59:17This is your big day.
00:59:19Let's forget about it and carry on with the party.
00:59:29Roger, what the hell was that?
00:59:32That's already been changed.
00:59:34Not anymore.
00:59:35The engagement's off.
00:59:37What?
00:59:40Enough!
00:59:41Who the hell are you to damage my daughter's reputation like this?
00:59:45If we played a video of your lowest moment in front of everyone, it would probably look just as bad.
00:59:50This is an unwarranted attack on the entire Thomas family.
00:59:55Exactly.
00:59:56First you broadcast that footage, then you trash the cake.
01:00:00What kind of man treats his own fiancé like this?
01:00:03The question you should be asking is, what kind of family raises their daughter to treat innocent people like that?
01:00:10Mrs. Thomas, please don't take this to heart.
01:00:13My son's just a little wound up there.
01:00:16Roger, you don't need to throw away your future over what happened with me.
01:00:21Vivian isn't my future now.
01:00:22She's my past.
01:00:24And that's set in stone.
01:00:26You arrogant bastard!
01:00:28Think you're some big shot, huh?
01:00:30You're just another wannabe tough guy in a suit!
01:00:34Dad, stop!
01:00:35He's the CEO!
01:00:39Who cares?
01:00:40He still answers to us!
01:00:42You think I'd let my daughter work under someone I didn't control?
01:00:48Vivian, Roger didn't make you the VP of Westream.
01:00:52I did.
01:00:54And that's because I'm a shareholder of the company.
01:00:57Your uncles, Daniel and Cooper, they are too.
01:01:00Wait, wait.
01:01:02Dad, you're a Westream shareholder?
01:01:04So I'm, I'm above all this?
01:01:10Roger, this changes everything.
01:01:16That's right, Vivian.
01:01:18We just closed a joint investment.
01:01:20You don't need to be afraid of Roger.
01:01:23He's just another salaried employee.
01:01:25He has no real power over you.
01:01:27Exactly.
01:01:29Roger's a cheap figurehead.
01:01:30He showed some promise at the start, so we overlooked his humble background.
01:01:34But now?
01:01:35Turns out he's an ungrateful, uncivilized scumbag.
01:01:38Don't waste your time with him, Vivian.
01:01:40You can do so much better.
01:01:42Roger's jeopardizing his marriage and his career because of me.
01:01:45No.
01:01:46I can't let this spiral any further.
01:01:49Mrs. Thomas, please.
01:01:51Don't let this little incident ruin their future together.
01:01:54Roger and Vivian, they're in love with each other.
01:01:57In love?
01:01:58Don't be ridiculous.
01:02:00I'm a shareholder's daughter.
01:02:02Which means a janitor's son like Roger has no business standing anywhere near me.
01:02:07This relationship never should have happened in the first place.
01:02:09My daughter's brilliant and beautiful.
01:02:12Only someone like that mysterious West Dream owner would be worthy her.
01:02:18You know, that's a good point.
01:02:21I've heard our mystery owner is a real heartthrog.
01:02:25Vivian, I'll make sure to introduce you to him when the time's right.
01:02:29Thanks, Uncle Daniel.
01:02:31I'd like that.
01:02:39It's funny.
01:02:40I thought I said it pretty clearly the first time.
01:02:43Apologize to my mother right now.
01:02:46Did you not hear what my dad just said?
01:02:48He's a West Dream shareholder and you're just some piss poor beggar trying to fake it as a businessman.
01:02:53Want me to apologize to your crusty mom over my dead fucking body?
01:02:56And just why should I be so scared of your shareholder dad?
01:03:01Watch it, Roger.
01:03:03Don't make him put you in your place.
01:03:06Right, my place.
01:03:08I suppose it's the perfect time to show you all what that place is.
01:03:24Dad, fire this arrogant prank now!
01:03:28Roger, I'm sick and tired of you disrespecting me in front of my guests.
01:03:32This is your last shot.
01:03:33Give us a public apology or you can pack your damn things and get the hell out of West Dream.
01:03:38Oh, Roger, this is all my fault.
01:03:41Please, I don't want you to lose your job because of me.
01:03:46Mom, nothing is your fault.
01:03:48And don't worry, they don't have the authority to fire me.
01:03:52We don't, do we?
01:03:53Oh, my God.
01:03:54This kid really thinks he's untouchable.
01:03:57Between Daniel, Cooper and I, we own over 30% of West Dream.
01:04:01Removing a placeholder CEO like him barely even calls for a meeting.
01:04:05True that.
01:04:06Roger's just some hot-headed chump in a nice suit.
01:04:10Still has no idea how the game works.
01:04:12If you know what's good for you, you'll hurry up and apologize.
01:04:16I'll apologize. I'll do it!
01:04:20No, Mom.
01:04:21You, you raised me. You've already done more than enough.
01:04:24You don't owe a thing to me or to these goons.
01:04:28But, Roger, these people, they hold your future in the palm of their hands.
01:04:34I just thought I might be able to help.
01:04:37I couldn't care less about who these people are.
01:04:40They mean nothing to me.
01:04:41All right, then I won't do it for you.
01:04:43I'll apologize on my own behalf.
01:04:51Mr. Thomas, I'm truly sorry for what transpired today.
01:04:56Please don't punish Roger for my mistakes.
01:04:58He can be stubborn sometimes, but he's a good man.
01:05:01A hard worker.
01:05:05God, Roger, I can see why Vivian thought your mother was a thief.
01:05:09She looks like she crawled out of a fucking dumpster.
01:05:12Not to mention, she absolutely reeks.
01:05:14How could anyone not assume she's just some bottom feeder?
01:05:20What did you just say?
01:05:25Did I stutter?
01:05:26Don't tell me you've never noticed that your own mother looks like a grimy, street-side bum.
01:05:42Mom.
01:05:44Stop pouring drinks for these ignorant fools.
01:05:47They don't deserve a shred of our respect.
01:05:51Right!
01:05:54Watch your tone, Roger.
01:05:55Who the hell are you calling ignorant?
01:05:57You, that's who.
01:05:58A man so obsessed with flaunting his class that he doesn't realize how classless he really is.
01:06:03God damn you, Roger!
01:06:04That's my father you're talking to!
01:06:06I'm well aware.
01:06:08Keep pushing me and next time I'll use my fists instead of words.
01:06:13Oh, God.
01:06:23Roger, sweetheart.
01:06:25You've worked too hard to throw it all away now.
01:06:29Don't let your temper get the best of you, okay?
01:06:31Just be the bigger person and apologize.
01:06:34Too late for that now.
01:06:38I'm contacting Emily.
01:06:39She'll call the board, and Roger will be out as CEO by nightfall.
01:06:43You have my full support.
01:06:44This is exactly the kind of hot-headed nonsense we warned the board about.
01:06:47He's done.
01:06:50Let him see what it feels like to wake up unemployed.
01:06:52Maybe then he'll learn to show some humility.
01:06:58Messaging Emily now.
01:07:00This asshole won't be talking shit anymore when he's out on the streets.
01:07:09Mr. Thomas, please, don't make any decisions you'll regret.
01:07:13I'll apologize for Roger.
01:07:15Just please let him keep his job.
01:07:18Roger, baby.
01:07:19Just swallow your pride and say sorry.
01:07:22You'll be glad you did.
01:07:23Mom, trust me.
01:07:24I'm going to be just fine.
01:07:26This is all my fault.
01:07:29If I hadn't come today, none of this would have happened.
01:07:33No, Mom.
01:07:34I should thank you.
01:07:37You helped me see the Thomases for who they really are.
01:07:40You'll be jobless in ten minutes, Roger.
01:07:42Maybe start updating your resume instead of playing Mr. Tough Guy.
01:07:56Just heard back from Emily.
01:08:02She's arranged for Westream's mystery owner to come here and settle this in person.
01:08:11Once this punk's gone, we'll nominate Vivian as the new CEO.
01:08:14You better believe it.
01:08:16Vivian's young, capable, driven.
01:08:18I guarantee she'll take us to the next level.
01:08:25Thank you, all of you.
01:08:27And I won't let you down.
01:08:28I'm going to be the best CEO Westream has ever had.
01:08:44Look at him.
01:08:45Still pretending like he has a job.
01:08:47Once my daughter's CEO, she'll clean house.
01:08:50That means everyone who might even think of vouching for Roger is getting sacked.
01:08:54If I were you, I'd be begging Vivian to show a little mercy.
01:08:57Who knows?
01:08:57It might save you from starving.
01:08:58Oh, that must be how you guys became shareholders.
01:09:01By graveling and begging for mercy like spinless cowards.
01:09:04Time's up, Roger.
01:09:05No more running your mouth.
01:09:05You have two options.
01:09:06Publicly apologize to my father or wait for the board members to fucking obliterate you.
01:09:10Please, Vivian.
01:09:11Think about how much you cared for Roger just yesterday.
01:09:13It's not worth ending his career over a fight.
01:09:15If an apology is what you want, then let me do it.
01:09:17I'll get on stage and scream it in front of all the guests if that's what it takes.
01:09:21Well, well.
01:09:22Let's see how sincere she really is.
01:09:27No, Mom.
01:09:28No.
01:09:29They're the ones who should be doing this, not you.
01:09:30You motherfucker.
01:09:32Sacking you isn't enough.
01:09:34We ought to beat you black and blue.
01:09:47Mrs. Anderson.
01:09:48Why are you alone?
01:09:49I thought you were bringing the chairman.
01:09:52Yes.
01:09:52Where is he?
01:09:53Should I go pick him up myself?
01:09:55That won't be necessary.
01:09:56He's already nearby.
01:09:58I thought you were bringing the chairman.
01:10:02Roger.
01:10:03You have to stop being so impulsive.
01:10:05Your future matters more than my dignity.
01:10:07You're wrong, Mom.
01:10:09Nothing matters more than your dignity.
01:10:11Nothing.
01:10:11And plus, I'd be more worried about their future than mine.
01:10:16Don't get too cocky, kid.
01:10:18The whole board's already signed off on your removal.
01:10:21You'll be drowning in your own tears before you know it.
01:10:25Mr. Thomas, the chairman clearly doesn't have much patience for your rambling.
01:10:29Why don't you just cut to the chase?
01:10:37Great.
01:10:37Then let's make it official.
01:10:39Mrs. Anderson, please promptly inform the board that we, the shareholder present in the room,
01:10:44have agreed to remove Roger Brown as CEO of Westream.
01:10:48Vivian Thomas will be appointed in his place.
01:10:51That's right.
01:10:52The vote is unanimous.
01:10:59There's no need to pass this on to the board.
01:11:01The chairman rejects your decision.
01:11:04Excuse me?
01:11:05Emily, the chairman's not even here.
01:11:07How the hell would you know what he thinks about it?
01:11:11Would you like to confirm it yourself, Mr. Chairman?
01:11:17What do you mean, Mr. Chairman?
01:11:22You still don't get it?
01:11:26It's me.
01:11:27I'm the chairman.
01:11:35This is hilarious.
01:11:36Roger can't even tell the difference between a CEO and an owner.
01:11:40Is anyone going to break the news to him?
01:11:42Kid's delusional.
01:11:43Must have hit his head or something.
01:11:45Roger, I get it.
01:11:46We backed you into a corner and now you're scared.
01:11:50But this?
01:11:51Really?
01:11:52Did you forget that Emily's met the real boss?
01:11:55You can't just lie to her face and get away with it.
01:11:59Mr. Brown isn't lying.
01:12:02He's the owner of Westream.
01:12:09Three years ago, Mr. Brown acquired over 60% of Westream's shares as a private investor.
01:12:15To avoid scrutiny, he chose to remain anonymous and face the public as company's CEO.
01:12:21Sweet mother of God, he really is the owner.
01:12:25It's all over.
01:12:26No, no.
01:12:27This is fake.
01:12:28This has to be fake.
01:12:29He paid you off, didn't he?
01:12:31You're covering for him.
01:12:32Don't think I won't call the police and have you arrested for fraud.
01:12:35Please, call them and have them look into it.
01:12:38That'll only confirm Mr. Brown's identity faster.
01:12:55Now remind me, what was this board meeting supposed to be about?
01:13:04What a silly misunderstanding this all was, Mr. Brown.
01:13:08No hard feelings, right?
01:13:10Why don't we carry on with the engagement party?
01:13:12Your lovely mother came all this way for your special day.
01:13:15We wouldn't want to disappoint her.
01:13:17You can go fuck yourself.
01:13:20Roger, you little...
01:13:21Vivian, watch your mouth.
01:13:23That's your boss you're talking to.
01:13:25Shit.
01:13:27Okay, he's really the boss.
01:13:28I have to shift the game plan to saving my career.
01:13:31The good thing is, Roger and I have real feelings for each other.
01:13:34Maybe mom's right.
01:13:36If I apologize fast enough, I can still salvage this.
01:13:39Please don't call off our engagement.
01:13:41Please don't call off our engagement.
01:13:43I'll be good to your mom.
01:13:44I'll take care of her like she's my own.
01:13:49Never seen anyone switch sides that fast.
01:13:53Impressive.
01:13:55Too bad it doesn't matter.
01:13:57Mrs. Brown!
01:13:59Please talk to him!
01:14:01Don't let him throw away what we had!
01:14:04I'll never love anyone but him!
01:14:08Then tell me this.
01:14:10Do you really want to marry my son?
01:14:13Or do you want to marry the man who owns 60% of this company?
01:14:22If you're going to beg my mom, at least make it convincing.
01:14:33Mrs. Brown, I'm so...
01:14:39Stop embarrassing yourself, Vivian.
01:14:42Just looking at you makes my skin crawl.
01:14:45Roger, please, let's just pretend this never happened.
01:14:48I didn't want you to get fired.
01:14:50It was all my dad!
01:14:51Ah yes, your dad.
01:14:55You must be very proud of the monster you raised, Sam.
01:14:59Vivian Thomas, you're fired.
01:15:02And you can forget about ever working at Westream again.
01:15:05No, Roger, please, no!
01:15:08Dad, do something!
01:15:10I gave everything to this company!
01:15:12I can't go down like this!
01:15:14Mr. Brown, I realize you're the majority owner, but I'm still a shareholder.
01:15:18You and I, we should be working together.
01:15:22And sir, you can't just dismiss High's high-level employees without consulting me first.
01:15:27It's reckless.
01:15:28You think you still have a say in this company?
01:15:30I can snatch away your measly little share with the flick of a wrist.
01:15:34Cool it, buddy.
01:15:36We're not going to hand over our shares just because you ask.
01:15:40Whoa, whoa, Sam, don't drag me into this, man.
01:15:42If push comes to shove, I'm siding with Mr. Brown.
01:15:45Yeah!
01:15:45You're the one who started all this!
01:15:48Mr. Brown, I'm sorry.
01:15:49I was misled.
01:15:50I let my judgment slip.
01:15:52It won't happen again.
01:15:55You filthy, rotten bastards!
01:16:00You two want a second chance?
01:16:02Fine.
01:16:06But your daughter abused my mother, and that means your whole family's going to pay.
01:16:15Just say the word, Mr. Brown.
01:16:18Sam sure runs his mouth a lot for a guy who has nothing worth saying.
01:16:22Let's see if he keeps jabbering after he gets a few teeth knocked out.
01:16:27Yes, sir.
01:16:40Either you help him out, or you're next in line.
01:16:47Mr. Brown, please tell them to stop!
01:16:50They're going to kill my husband!
01:16:55Funny, your daughter didn't seem too worried about killing my mom when she was dunking her head underwater.
01:17:05Mr. Brown, I'm begging you.
01:17:08That's the father of the woman you once loved.
01:17:12Please spare him.
01:17:14He's also the father of the woman who nearly murdered my mother.
01:17:18I guess that didn't occur to you.
01:17:20Fine!
01:17:21I admit it!
01:17:23I'll fess up to everything I did!
01:17:25I'll tell everyone!
01:17:27That's the first real thing you've said all day.
01:17:33All right then, start talking.
01:17:36I...
01:17:36I accused her of stealing.
01:17:40I dunked her head into a bucket of water.
01:17:45I nearly killed her.
01:17:57No, I'm not as cruel as you.
01:17:59Do it yourself.
01:18:09Roger, that's enough.
01:18:10Let them go.
01:18:15No, I'm not stopping.
01:18:17Until they suffered just as much as you did.
01:18:21Look, I know you want to protect me.
01:18:23But if you keep fighting hate with hate,
01:18:26you're no better than they are.
01:18:28You've already made things right.
01:18:30Now, let's take the high road and walk away from this.
01:18:37Enough!
01:18:49You can go.
01:18:50You're lucky my mother has such a kind heart.
01:18:52Thank you, Mrs. Brown.
01:19:12Mom.
01:19:15I'm sorry.
01:19:17I was so busy chasing Seth
01:19:20that I went missing when you needed me most.
01:19:24But I promise,
01:19:25from now on, I'll make time.
01:19:27I'll be more present.
01:19:29You'll never have to deal with things on your own again.
01:19:40You've always made me proud, Roger.
01:19:43I don't blame you for any of this.
01:19:47Come on.
01:19:48Let's go home.
01:19:48Let's go home.
