00:19:35mom
00:19:55Hello? You must be Miss Lisa?
00:19:59That's me. And you are?
00:20:03Name's Jimmy Davis, assistant director of sales here at WD, and I've been dying to meet you.
00:20:08Sounds like someone did their homework, dug up my family ties too?
00:20:10Well, assistant director, technically. But hey, if this deal goes well, who knows?
00:20:14Maybe I finally get that corner office with a little help from someone as well-connected as you.
00:20:18Let's just say I like to know who I'm working with. Come on, Mr. Brown's expecting you.
00:20:55We'll be right back now too.
00:20:57This whole day's cursed.
00:20:59Old hag? What happened?
00:21:01Oh, we just ran into some filthy beaner at the coffee shop.
00:21:04It smelled like she hadn't showered in months.
00:21:06The old rat even had the nerve to steal my bracelet, but luckily I caught her.
00:21:12These bottom feeders really think the world owes them something.
00:21:15Always stealing shit right and left.
00:21:17We fired a janitor just yesterday.
00:21:19Caught her trying to make off with a company laptop.
00:21:22What this country needs is a real cleanup.
00:21:26Someone should be sending these low-class leeches as far away as possible.
00:21:31All they're good for is dragging down society and driving up crime rates.
00:21:37Right?
00:21:37I feel gross just breathing the same air as them.
00:21:43All right, enough talk about those riffraff.
00:21:45Let's go close this deal.
00:21:57Mr. Brown, the meeting's about to start.
00:21:59Right. On my way.
00:22:03Just hang out here and relax, okay?
00:22:04I'll be back right after this meeting.
00:22:06Do what you need to do, sweetheart.
00:22:07Don't worry about me.
00:22:09By the way, where's Vivian?
00:22:12I thought I'd get to meet her today.
00:22:13Oh, she's drowning in last-minute prep for the engagement party.
00:22:16And she's got a meeting later, too.
00:22:17But as soon as we're both free, I'm bringing her up to meet you.
00:22:20Well, you two workaholics really are made for each other.
00:22:23Go on, then.
00:22:26My boy.
00:22:27Even on his engagement day, he's still working his tail off.
00:22:30And he found himself a fiancé who's just like him.
00:22:33I just know they'll build a beautiful life together.
00:22:48Mr. Brown, your guests have arrived.
00:22:52Good morning, Mr. Brown.
00:22:54I'm Lisa Smith, Sales Manager at 3CF.
00:22:59Move it, hobo!
00:23:00You're stinking up the whole shop!
00:23:03Steve!
00:23:04Somebody get security!
00:23:05This old lady just stole my bracelet!
00:23:08I'm so sorry we're late, Mr. Brown.
00:23:10I hope we haven't upset you.
00:23:12Yes, sir.
00:23:14We...
00:23:17You two...
00:23:18This is Roger Brown's office.
00:23:20That's his chair.
00:23:21And she...
00:23:22She's sitting in it.
00:23:23Oh, God.
00:23:24Is she really his mother?
00:23:25I'm dead!
00:23:26I...
00:23:27I'm sorry.
00:23:27I didn't know.
00:23:28I had no idea you were telling the truth!
00:23:30Boss, why are you apologizing to her?
00:23:33She's just some filthy thief.
00:23:35Shh!
00:23:35That's Mr. Brown's mother, you idiot!
00:23:37How else would she be sitting in his office?
00:23:41Oh, my God.
00:23:43She wasn't lying.
00:23:49I'm sorry.
00:23:50I'm so sorry, ma'am.
00:23:56Ma'am, it was all just a misunderstanding, really.
00:24:00This deal with WD, it means everything to me.
00:24:04I'll make it up to you however you want.
00:24:05Just please don't let this affect the contract.
00:24:08Yes.
00:24:09Absolutely.
00:24:10We're very sorry for how we behaved earlier.
00:24:13Fine.
00:24:14If you're working with Raj's partners,
00:24:16and I know he sees his partners as friends,
00:24:19I won't say anything to him.
00:24:22That's wonderful.
00:24:23Thank you, ma'am.
00:24:25Pardon me, Miss Smith,
00:24:27but I think you've got the wrong person.
00:24:28This woman here isn't the CEO's mother.
00:24:31Mr. Brown's mom got lost on her way over.
00:24:33She's not even here yet.
00:24:34What?
00:24:34Really?
00:24:36Yes.
00:24:36And plus, just look at this broke, wrinkled woman.
00:24:40What a sorry sight.
00:24:42Roger Brown would never let his mother walk in here
00:24:46looking like a damn stray dog.
00:24:48That's right.
00:24:49Roger's mom is here to attend his engagement party.
00:24:52Sure, maybe she'd prefer to stay low-key,
00:24:54but there's no way she'd show up looking like some soggy gutter rat.
00:24:57Unbelievable.
00:24:59What's your deal?
00:25:00You crusty old leech.
00:25:02You stalking us now or something?
00:25:04Mr. Davis, this is her.
00:25:06That filthy thief who stole my bracelet at the cafe.
00:25:09And now she's snuck into the West Dream headquarters.
00:25:12What?
00:25:15Nasty old bitch.
00:25:17Mrs. Smith here is the cousin of West Dream's VP.
00:25:21You really thought you could mess with her and get away with it?
00:25:24Someone ought to put you in your place.
00:25:25I didn't steal anything, sir.
00:25:28And I really am Roger's mother.
00:25:33They're putting up a front, huh?
00:25:34You think you can just strut in here
00:25:36and slap a fake name on yourself?
00:25:38Who the hell are you anyways?
00:25:39Trash like you never should have gotten past security.
00:25:43No, no, no, no, please.
00:25:48See?
00:25:50Roger brought me here.
00:25:52I'm his mother, I swear.
00:25:55Again with the lies?
00:25:56I've never seen such a shameless bullshitter in my life.
00:26:00Answer me!
00:26:01What the fuck are you doing in Mr. Brown's office?
00:26:07I'm telling the truth.
00:26:08I didn't do anything wrong.
00:26:10Oh, I know.
00:26:11She's here to steal.
00:26:13What else would a serial thief be doing in the CEO's office?
00:26:16Oh, exactly.
00:26:18She's just in here snooping around for his valuables.
00:26:21No, no, I'm not.
00:26:24I was just resting here while Roger's in a meeting.
00:26:27Wait, now I remember.
00:26:28You're the janitor we fired yesterday for stealing that laptop, aren't you?
00:26:32You're mad you got sacked.
00:26:34So now you're back to rob us blind!
00:26:36Don't go easy on her, Mr. Davis.
00:26:38Stealing my bracelet's one thing,
00:26:39but laying her hands on company property?
00:26:41That's on a whole different level.
00:26:43What a golden opportunity.
00:26:44If I catch her stealing from the CEO's office,
00:26:46that promotion's practically mine.
00:26:58I didn't steal anything.
00:27:00And I'm not that janitor you're talking about.
00:27:04Yeah, right.
00:27:04You poor folk are all the same.
00:27:06Get fired one day, come crawling back the next.
00:27:09Thought you'd make off with some loot?
00:27:11Not with me around, you won't.
00:27:12Please, why don't you believe me?
00:27:14You stupid old cow.
00:27:16Really almost had me fooled earlier.
00:27:18And to think I fucking apologized to her.
00:27:21I'm not walking away until this bitch gets eviscerated.
00:27:25Mr. Davis, women like her aren't just shitty employees.
00:27:29They're treacherous scammers who lie and cheat their way to life.
00:27:34You need to knock her down a peg.
00:27:36Damn straight.
00:27:37People like her are rotten from birth.
00:27:40They're the lowest form of humanity.
00:27:42So we might as well treat him like it.
00:27:46I didn't...
00:27:47I didn't steal anything.
00:27:50And no one's born rotten.

00:49:16thank you all so much for being here on this special day and please enjoy the food and drinks
00:49:21The ceremony will begin shortly.
00:49:27Mom, Dad, I'm so glad you could make it.
00:49:31We wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:49:33You look stunning.
00:49:35That's just because of the necklace I picked out for her.
00:49:39You like it, sweetheart?
00:49:42It's perfect, Dad.
00:49:45Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Roger Brown has arrived.
00:50:06Whoa, what the hell?
00:50:08Dude, he's pissed.
00:50:09That is not the face of a man who's about to get engaged.
00:50:13Right?
00:50:13He looks like he's here to throw hands, not throw a party.
00:50:17And why is he rolling up with bodyguards and shit?
00:50:19Man, the Thomas family isn't going to like this.
00:50:21To be honest, though, if I were the West Stream CEO, I'd probably be pulling power moves like that, too.
00:50:26Oh, come on.
00:50:26Let's not get carried away.
00:50:28The guy's a CEO, not a fucking royal prince.
00:50:30Exactly.
00:50:30He needs to slow his roll.
00:50:32This place is filled with people who rake in just as much as he does.
00:50:39So this is how you greet your elders, huh?
00:50:41With a scowl and a squad of bodyguards?
00:50:44Dad, relax.
00:50:45You probably just rushed over, that's all.
00:50:50Roger, what's wrong?
00:50:52Where's your mom?
00:51:10What the fuck are you doing here?
00:51:14You crusty old hag.
00:51:16This is an exclusive event, not a soup kitchen.
00:51:20Get the hell out!
00:51:24Mr. Brown?
00:51:26What was that for?
00:51:27You tell me.
00:51:30Oh, I get it.
00:51:32This granny must have fed you some sob story, right?
00:51:35Sir, trust me.
00:51:36Everything she told you was a lie.
00:51:37But don't worry, Mr. Brown.
00:51:39I'll put an end to this once and for all.
00:51:49Roger, what the hell has gotten into you?
00:51:52It's just like Jimmy said.
00:51:53This lady's a thief, a worthless street rat.
00:51:56So whatever you're doing, just stop.
00:51:58It's an insult to my parents and everyone else here.
00:52:00A thief?
00:52:00A street rat?
00:52:01As VP of Westream, that's your official assessment?
00:52:04Mr. Brown, I can vouch for Vivian.
00:52:07That woman's a thief.
00:52:16Roger, what the fuck is going on?
00:52:18Say it again, Lisa.
00:52:20Say it to my face.
00:52:22Who's the thief?
00:52:23Mr. Brown?
00:52:25There must be some kind of misunderstanding.
00:52:28Roger, enough.
00:52:29This place is full of VIP guests.
00:52:31It isn't the time for theatrics.
00:52:33Actually, I think it's the perfect time.
00:52:34Hand me the contract.
00:52:38You're fired.
00:52:39No, Mr. Brown.
00:52:42Please don't do this.
00:52:44After what you did to her, you can forget about ever partnering with Westream Corporation.
00:52:49You.
00:52:49You did this.
00:52:51You set me up.
00:52:52You cognizing old-
00:52:53If I were you, I'd lower your goddamn finger.
00:52:55I didn't set you up.
00:52:56I didn't have to.
00:52:57You did what you did and now you're facing the consequences.
00:53:00Roger, are you seriously humiliating my cousin over some binong?
00:53:03This cousin of yours brutalized a defenseless old woman, mocked her, dehumanized her, and accused her of theft with zero
00:53:08proof.
00:53:09Tell me, is that the type of person we should be doing business with?
00:53:12Accused her of theft?
00:53:13We all know that bitch stole my bracelet.
00:53:23Wait, this, this bracelet, you bought it?
00:53:26I bought it for the woman standing next to me, my mother.
00:53:35Roger, her?
00:53:37She's your mom?
00:53:38My future mother-in-law?
00:53:41No.
00:53:42Roger, I'm sorry.
00:53:44I didn't know.
00:53:45I had no clue she was your mother.
00:53:46This is the woman who raised me, fed me, tucked me into bed at night.
00:53:50And you have the nerve to suggest I'm just making all this up to humiliate your cousin?
00:53:55No, no.
00:53:57Roger, that's not what I meant.
00:54:02I'm so sorry, Mr. Brown.
00:54:04I didn't know she was your mother.
00:54:06I was wrong.
00:54:06I should have been more discerning.
00:54:08All I ask is that you give me one more chance.
00:54:11Yes, Mr. Brown.
00:54:12We didn't mean any harm.
00:54:14Just please, please don't ruin us over this.
00:54:20Mrs. Brown, I'm sorry.
00:54:24I didn't mean to disrespect you.
00:54:26Please forgive me.
00:54:28No.
00:54:29You're only apologizing because you found out she's my mother.
00:54:32If she were just a stranger, just another woman on the street, would you still begging for forgiveness like this?
00:54:39That's what I thought.
00:54:41Now get the hell out.
00:54:44Vivian, please!
00:54:47Say something!
00:54:48This contract is everything to me!
00:54:50I promised my boss I would seal the deal if I go back empty-handed.
00:54:54He'll fire me!
00:54:58Leave, Lisa.
00:54:59We'll talk later.
00:55:04Please, Viv.
00:55:06Please don't do this to me.
00:55:08Just go.
00:55:15You two.
00:55:16Out.
00:55:17Yes, Miss Thomas.
00:55:19Don't move!
00:55:21You're not just walking out of here after all that you did.
00:55:26Ma'am, I'm terribly sorry.
00:55:29I already regret how I treated you.
00:55:31Please, please show me some mercy.
00:55:34Oh!
00:55:38Take this criminal to the police station along with the surveillance footage from my office.
00:55:43Assaulting an elderly woman should land him a nice long vacation behind bars.
00:55:46Yes, sir.
00:55:49Mr. Brown, please!
00:55:51I screwed up!
00:55:52I swear I'll make it right!
00:55:53Get him out of my sight.
00:55:54Mr. Brown!
00:55:55I'm begging you!
00:55:56Whatever you want, I'll do it!
00:55:57Just please don't send me to jail!
00:56:06Mrs. Brown, I can't tell you how sorry I am.
00:56:09This was supposed to be a happy day, and I know things didn't go as planned, but I hope
00:56:13you won't hold it against me.
00:56:16Lucy, bring over the gift.
00:56:20I picked these out for you as a welcome gift.
00:56:22I hope you find them to your liking.
00:56:26Didn't go as planned?
00:56:28You and your cousin put my mother through a day straight from hell, but things just
00:56:34didn't go as planned?
00:56:37Roger, let it go.
00:56:38It was a misunderstanding.
00:56:40Okay, look at her.
00:56:40She's dressed up so beautifully tonight.
00:56:42All for you.
00:56:42No, it's not for me.
00:56:43It's just for show.
00:56:44Vivian, you looked down on my mom.
00:56:45You called her a street rat.
00:56:46So what does that make me, then?
00:56:47The street rat son that she worked day and night to raise by herself?
00:56:50Roger, please.
00:56:53The guests are all waiting.
00:56:55They didn't come here to see us bigger about personal matters like this.
00:56:59Let's just cut the cake and take photos, and then we'll talk after, okay?
00:57:09Bring out the cake.
00:57:16Roger, don't be mad, all right?
00:57:18We can sit down and talk it over after everyone leaves.
00:57:21For now, let's just put on a big smile and enjoy our perfect moment.
00:57:26Actually, you know what would make this moment perfect?
00:57:30Showing the guests hear every little thing you did to my mother.
00:57:48That pen isn't just expensive.
00:57:50It's the first gift I ever gave Roger.
00:57:53It's irreplaceable.
00:57:54So you better cough it up now before I go ape shit on your ass.
00:57:57I didn't take it.
00:58:01Oh, my God.
00:58:02Is that what it looks like?
00:58:04She's torturing her future mother-in-law?
00:58:06This is so much worse than I thought.
00:58:08She really could have hurt her.
00:58:10Wonder Roger lost it.
00:58:11That was my mom.
00:58:13Whoever did that to her would be in the hospital by now.
00:58:16Roger, please.
00:58:18Turn it off.
00:58:20No one was supposed to see this.
00:58:24So now you feel ashamed, huh?
00:58:27Where was this when you were busy trying to drown my mother?
00:58:30Roger, my parents are watching, for God's sake.
00:58:32What are you trying to do?
00:58:34Apologize to my mother right now.
00:58:36What?
00:58:36Babe, of course I'll apologize to her later.
00:58:38But I can't stand back and let you publicly humiliate me like this.
00:58:42You heard what I said.
00:58:43Don't make me repeat it.
00:58:45Mrs. Brown, please.
00:58:47Make him turn it off.
00:58:48You're a kind woman.
00:58:50You understand how bad this looks for me and my family, right?
00:58:55Roger, don't you think this has gone far enough?
00:58:58Vivian and I just got off on the wrong foot.
00:59:00That's all.
00:59:01This is your big nay.
00:59:02Let's forget about it and carry on with the party.
00:59:07Mom, you still want me to get engaged to this woman?
00:59:11Vivian and I just got off on the wrong foot.
00:59:13That's all.
00:59:13This is your big day.
00:59:15Let's forget about it and carry on with the party.
00:59:25Roger, what the hell was that?
00:59:28That's our main cake.
00:59:29Not anymore.
00:59:31The engagement's off.
00:59:33What?
00:59:36Enough!
00:59:37Who the hell are you to damage my daughter's reputation like this?
00:59:41If we played a video of your lowest moment in front of everyone,
00:59:44it would probably look just as bad.
00:59:46This is an unwarranted attack on the entire Thomas family.
00:59:51Exactly.
00:59:52First you broadcast that footage, then you trash the cake.
00:59:56What kind of man treats his own fiancé like this?
00:59:59The question you should be asking is,
01:00:01what kind of family raises their daughter to treat innocent people like that?
01:00:06Mrs. Thomas, please don't take this to heart.
01:00:09My son's just a little wound up there.
01:00:12Roger, you don't need to throw away your future over what happened with me.
01:00:17Vivian isn't my future now.
01:00:18She's my past.
01:00:20And that's set in stone.
01:00:21You arrogant bastard!
01:00:23Think you're some big shot, huh?
01:00:26You're just another wannabe tough guy in a suit!
01:00:29Dad, stop!
01:00:31He's the CEO!
01:00:35Who cares?
01:00:36He still answers to us!
01:00:38You think I'd let my daughter work under someone I didn't control?
01:00:44Vivian, Roger didn't make you the VP of Westream.
01:00:48I did.
01:00:50And that's because I'm a shareholder of the company.
01:00:53Your uncles, Daniel and Cooper, they are too.
01:00:56Wait, wait.
01:00:58Dad, you're a Westream shareholder?
01:01:01So I'm above all this?
01:01:06Roger, this changes everything.
01:01:12That's right, Vivian.
01:01:14We just closed a joint investment.
01:01:16You don't need to be afraid of Roger.
01:01:19He's just another salaried employee.
01:01:21He has no real power over you.
01:01:23Exactly.
01:01:25Roger's a cheap figurehead.
01:01:26He showed some promise at the start,
01:01:28so we overlooked his humble background,
01:01:30but now?
01:01:31Turns out he's an ungrateful, uncivilized scumbag.
01:01:34Don't waste your time with him, Vivian.
01:01:36You can do so much better.
01:01:38Roger's jeopardizing his marriage and his career because of me.
01:01:41No.
01:01:42I can't let this spiral any further.
01:01:45Mrs. Thomas, please.
01:01:47Don't let this little incident ruin their future together.
01:01:50Roger and Vivian, they're in love with each other.
01:01:53In love?
01:01:54Don't be ridiculous.
01:01:56I'm a shareholder's daughter,
01:01:57which means a janitor's son like Roger
01:02:00has no business standing anywhere near me.
01:02:03This relationship never should have happened in the first place.
01:02:06My daughter's brilliant and beautiful.
01:02:08Only someone like that mysterious West Dream owner
01:02:11would be worthy her.
01:02:15You know,
01:02:16that's a good point.
01:02:17I've heard our mystery owner is a real heartthrog.
01:02:21Vivian,
01:02:21I'll make sure to introduce you to him when the time's right.
01:02:25Thanks, Uncle Daniel.
01:02:27I'd like that.
01:02:35It's funny.
01:02:36I thought I said it pretty clearly the first time.
01:02:39Apologize to my mother right now.
01:02:42Did you not hear what my dad just said?
01:02:44He's a West Dream shareholder
01:02:45and you're just some piss-poor beggar
01:02:47trying to fake it as a businessman.
01:02:49Want me to apologize to your crusty mom
01:02:50over my dead fucking body?
01:02:53And just why should I be so scared of your shareholder dad?
01:02:57Watch it, Roger.
01:02:59Don't make him put you in your place.
01:03:02Right, my place.
01:03:04I suppose it's the perfect time
01:03:05to show you all what that place is.
01:03:19Dad!
01:03:20Fire this arrogant prank!
01:03:23Now!
01:03:24Roger, I'm sick and tired of you
01:03:26disrespecting me in front of my guests.
01:03:28This is your last shot.
01:03:30Give us a public apology
01:03:31or you can pack your damn things
01:03:32and get the hell out of West Dream.
01:03:34Oh, Roger, this is all my fault.
01:03:37Please.
01:03:38I don't want you to lose your job because of me.
01:03:43Mom, nothing is your fault.
01:03:45And don't worry.
01:03:46They don't have the authority to fire me.
01:03:48We don't, do we?
01:03:49Oh, my God.
01:03:50This kid really thinks he's untouchable.
01:03:53Between Daniel, Cooper, and I,
01:03:55we own over 30% of West Dream.
01:03:57Removing a placeholder CEO like him
01:03:59barely even calls for a meeting.
01:04:01True that.
01:04:02Roger's just some hot-headed chump in a nice suit.
01:04:06Still has no idea how the game works.
01:04:08If you know what's good for you,
01:04:10you'll hurry up and apologize.
01:04:12I'll apologize.
01:04:13I'll do it.
01:04:16No, Mom.
01:04:17You, you raised me.
01:04:19You've already done more than enough.
01:04:20You don't owe a thing to me or to these goons.
01:04:24But, Roger, these people,
01:04:26they hold your future in the palm of their hands.
01:04:30I just thought I might be able to help.
01:04:33I couldn't care less about who these people are.
01:04:36They mean nothing to me.
01:04:37All right, then I won't do it for you.
01:04:39I'll apologize on my own behalf.
01:04:47Mr. Thomas,
01:04:49I'm truly sorry for what transpired today.
01:04:52Please don't punish Roger for my mistakes.
01:04:54He can be stubborn sometimes,
01:04:56but he's a good man,
01:04:57a hard worker.
01:05:01God, Roger, I can see why Vivian thought
01:05:04your mother was a thief.
01:05:05She looks like she crawled out of a fucking dumpster.
01:05:08Not to mention she absolutely reeks.
01:05:10How could anyone not assume
01:05:12she's just some bottom feeder?
01:05:16What did you just say?
01:05:21Did I stutter?
01:05:23Don't tell me you've never noticed
01:05:24that your own mother looks like
01:05:26a grimy street-side bum.
01:05:40Mom, stop pouring drinks for these ignorant fools.
01:05:43They don't deserve a shred of our respect.
01:05:50Watch your tone, Roger.
01:05:51Who the hell are you calling ignorant?
01:05:53You, that's who.
01:05:54A man so obsessed with flaunting his class
01:05:56that he doesn't realize how classless he really is.
01:05:59God damn you, Roger!
01:06:00That's my father you're talking to!
01:06:02I'm well aware.
01:06:04Keep pushing me,
01:06:05and next time I'll use my fists
01:06:06instead of words.
01:06:19Roger, sweetheart.
01:06:21You've worked too hard
01:06:23to throw it all away now.
01:06:25Don't let your temper
01:06:26get the best of you, okay?
01:06:27Just be the bigger person
01:06:29and apologize.
01:06:30Too late for that now.
01:06:34I'm contacting Emily.
01:06:35She'll call the board,
01:06:36and Roger will be out as CEO by nightfall.
01:06:39You have my full support.
01:06:40This is exactly the kind of hot-headed nonsense
01:06:42we warned the board about.
01:06:44He's done.
01:06:46Let him see what it feels like
01:06:47to wake up unemployed.
01:06:49Maybe then he'll learn to show some humility.
01:06:54Messaging Emily now.
01:06:56This asshole won't be talking shit anymore
01:06:58when he's out on the streets.
01:07:05Mr. Thomas, please,
01:07:07don't make any decisions you'll regret.
01:07:09I'll apologize for Roger.
01:07:11Just please let him keep his job.
01:07:14Roger, baby,
01:07:16just swallow your pride and say sorry.
01:07:18You'll be glad you did.
01:07:20Mom, trust me.
01:07:21I'm going to be just fine.
01:07:23This is all my fault.
01:07:25If I hadn't come today,
01:07:27none of this would have happened.
01:07:29No, Mom.
01:07:30I should thank you.
01:07:33You helped me see the Thomases for who they really are.
01:07:36You'll be jobless in ten minutes, Roger.
01:07:39Maybe start updating your resume
01:07:40instead of playing Mr. Tough Guy.
01:07:53Just heard back from Emily.
01:07:58She's arranged for Westream's mystery owner
01:08:00to come here and settle this in person.
01:08:07Once this punk's gone,
01:08:08we'll nominate Vivian as the new CEO.
01:08:11You better believe it.
01:08:12Vivian's young, capable, driven.
01:08:15I guarantee she'll take us to the next level.
01:08:21Thank you, all of you.
01:08:23And I won't let you down.
01:08:25I'm going to be the best CEO Westream has ever had.
01:08:40Oh, look at him.
01:08:42Still pretending like he has a job.
01:08:44Once my daughter's CEO, she'll clean house.
01:08:46That means everyone who might even think of vouching for Roger is getting sacked.
01:08:50If I were you, I'd be begging Vivian to show a little mercy.
01:08:53Who knows?
01:08:54It might save you from starving.
01:08:55Oh, that must be how you guys became shareholders.
01:08:57By graveling and begging for mercy like spinless cowards.
01:09:00Time's up, Roger.
01:09:01No more running your mouth.
01:09:02You have two options.
01:09:03Publicly apologize to my father
01:09:04or wait for the board members to fucking obliterate you.
01:09:06Please, Vivian.
01:09:07Think about how much you cared for Roger just yesterday.
01:09:09It's not worth ending his career over a fight.
01:09:11If an apology is what you want, then let me do it.
01:09:13I'll get on stage and scream it in front of all the guests if that's what it takes.
01:09:17Well, well.
01:09:18Let's see how sincere she really is.
01:09:23No, Mom.
01:09:24No.
01:09:25They're the ones who should be doing this, not you.
01:09:27You motherfucker.
01:09:29Sacking you isn't enough.
01:09:30We ought to beat you black and blue.
01:09:43Mrs. Anderson.
01:09:45Why are you alone?
01:09:46I thought you were bringing the chairman.
01:09:48Yes.
01:09:49Where is he?
01:09:50Should I go pick him up myself?
01:09:51That won't be necessary.
01:09:53He's already nearby.
01:09:55Thought you were bringing the chairman.
01:09:58Roger, you have to stop being so impulsive.
01:10:02Your future matters more than my dignity.
01:10:04You're wrong, Mom.
01:10:05Nothing matters more than your dignity.
01:10:07Nothing.
01:10:08And plus, I'd be more worried about their future than mine.
01:10:13Don't get too cocky, kid.
01:10:15The whole board's already signed off on your removal.
01:10:18You'll be drowning in your own tears before you know it.
01:10:21Mr. Thomas, the chairman clearly doesn't have much patience for your rambling.
01:10:26Why don't you just cut to the chase?
01:10:33The chairman is a very important part of the board.
01:10:34Then let's make it official.
01:10:36Mrs. Anderson, please promptly inform the board that we, the shareholder present in the
01:10:40room, have agreed to remove Roger Brown as CEO of West Dream.
01:10:45Vivian Thomas will be appointed in his place.
01:10:48That's right.
01:10:49The vote is unanimous.
01:10:56There's no need to pass this on to the board.
01:10:58The chairman rejects your decision.
01:11:00Excuse me?
01:11:02Emily, the chairman's not even here.
01:11:03How the hell would you know what he thinks about it?
01:11:07Would you like to confirm it yourself, Mr. Chairman?
01:11:14What do you mean, Mr. Chairman?
01:11:19You still don't get it?
01:11:23It's me.
01:11:24I'm the chairman.
01:11:32This is hilarious.
01:11:33Roger can't even tell the difference between a CEO and an owner.
01:11:37Is anyone going to break the news to him?
01:11:39Kid's delusional.
01:11:40Must have hit his head or something.
01:11:42Roger, I get it.
01:11:43We backed you into a corner and now you're scared.
01:11:46But this?
01:11:47Really?
01:11:49Did you forget that Emily's met the real boss?
01:11:52You can't just lie to her face and get away with it.
01:11:56Mr. Brown isn't lying.
01:11:59He's the owner of Westream.
01:12:06Three years ago, Mr. Brown acquired over 60% of Westream's shares as a private investor.
01:12:12To avoid scrutiny, he chose to remain anonymous and face the public as company's CEO.
01:12:18Sweet mother of God, he really is the owner.
01:12:22It's all over.
01:12:23No, no.
01:12:24This is fake.
01:12:25This has to be fake.
01:12:26He paid you off, didn't he?
01:12:27You're covering for him.
01:12:29Don't think I won't call the police and have you arrested for fraud.
01:12:32Please, call them and have them look into it.
01:12:35That'll only confirm Mr. Brown's identity faster.
01:12:51Now remind me, what was this board meeting supposed to be about?
01:13:01What a silly misunderstanding this all was, Mr. Brown.
01:13:05No hard feelings, right?
01:13:07Why don't we carry on with the engagement party?
01:13:09Your lovely mother came all this way for your special day.
01:13:12We wouldn't want to disappoint her.
01:13:14You can go fuck yourself.
01:13:17Roger, you little...
01:13:18Vivian, watch your mouth.
01:13:20That's your boss you're talking to.
01:13:22Shit.
01:13:23Okay, he's really the boss.
01:13:25I have to shift the game plan to saving my career.
01:13:28The good thing is, Roger and I have real feelings for each other.
01:13:31Maybe mom's right.
01:13:32If I apologize fast enough, I can still salvage this.
01:13:36Please don't call off our engagement.
01:13:38Please don't call off our engagement.
01:13:40I'll be good to your mom.
01:13:41I'll take care of her like she's my own.
01:13:46Never seen anyone switch sides that fast.
01:13:50Impressive.
01:13:52Too bad it doesn't matter.
01:13:54Mrs. Brown!
01:13:56Please talk to him.
01:13:58Don't let him throw away what we had.
01:14:01I'll never love anyone but him.
01:14:05Then tell me this.
01:14:07Do you really want to marry my son?
01:14:10Or do you want to marry the man who owns 60% of this company?
01:14:19If you're going to beg my mom, at least make it convincing.
01:14:30Mrs. Brown, I'm so...
01:14:36Stop embarrassing yourself, Vivian.
01:14:39And just looking at you makes my skin crawl.
01:14:42Roger, please.
01:14:43Let's just pretend this never happened.
01:14:45I didn't want you to get fired.
01:14:47It was all my dad.
01:14:49Ah, yes.
01:14:49Your dad.
01:14:52You must be very proud of the monster you raised, Sam.
01:14:56Vivian Thomas,
01:14:58you're fired.
01:14:59And you can forget about ever working at Westream again.
01:15:02No.
01:15:03Roger, please, no.
01:15:05Dad, do something.
01:15:07I gave everything to this company.
01:15:09I can't go down like this.
01:15:11Mr. Brown,
01:15:12I realize you're the majority owner,
01:15:14but I'm still a shareholder.
01:15:15You and I, we should be working together.
01:15:19And sir,
01:15:21you can't just dismiss High's high-level employees
01:15:23without consulting me first.
01:15:24It's reckless.
01:15:25You think you still have a say in this company?
01:15:27I can snatch away your measly little share
01:15:29with the flick of a wrist.
01:15:31Cool it, buddy.
01:15:33We're not going to hand over our shares
01:15:34just because you ask.
01:15:37Whoa, whoa.
01:15:37Sam, don't drag me into this, man.
01:15:39If push comes to shove,
01:15:40I'm siding with Mr. Brown.
01:15:42Yeah.
01:15:43You're the one who started all this.
01:15:45Mr. Brown, I'm sorry.
01:15:46I was misled.
01:15:47I let my judgment slip.
01:15:49It won't happen again.
01:15:52You filthy, rotten bastards!
01:15:57You two want a second chance?
01:15:59Fine.
01:16:03But your daughter abused my mother,
01:16:05and that means your whole family's going to pay.
01:16:12Just say the word, Mr. Brown.
01:16:15Sam sure runs his mouth a lot
01:16:17for a guy who has nothing worth saying.
01:16:19Let's see if he keeps jabbering
01:16:21after he gets a few teeth knocked out.
01:16:25Yes, sir.
01:16:37Either you help him out,
01:16:40or you're next in line.
01:16:44Mr. Brown, please tell them to stop!
01:16:47They're going to kill my husband!
01:16:51Funny.
01:16:53Your daughter didn't seem too worried
01:16:55about killing my mom
01:16:56when she was dunking her head underwater.
01:17:02Mr. Brown, I'm begging you.
01:17:05That's the father of the woman you once loved.
01:17:09Please spare him.
01:17:11He's also the father of the woman
01:17:13who nearly murdered my mother.
01:17:15I guess that didn't occur to you.
01:17:17Fine.
01:17:18I admit it.
01:17:20I'll fess up to everything I did.
01:17:22I'll tell everyone.
01:17:25That's the first real thing you've said all day.
01:17:31All right then, start talking.
01:17:32I accused her of stealing.
01:17:37I dunked her head into a bucket of water.
01:17:42I nearly killed her.
01:17:54No, I'm not as cruel as you.
01:17:56Do it yourself.
01:18:06Roger, that's enough.
01:18:08Let them go.
01:18:12No, I'm not stopping.
01:18:14Until they suffered just as much as you did.
01:18:18Look, I know you want to protect me,
01:18:21but if you keep fighting hate with hate,
01:18:23you're no better than they are.
01:18:25You've already made things right.
01:18:27Now let's take the high road
01:18:29and walk away from this.
01:18:34Enough!
01:18:46You can go.
01:18:47You're lucky my mother has such a kind heart.
01:18:50Thank you, Mrs. Brown.
01:19:11Mom, I'm sorry.
01:19:15I was so busy chasing Seth
01:19:17that I went missing when you needed me most.
01:19:22But I promise
01:19:23from now on, I'll make time.
01:19:25I'll be more present.
01:19:27You'll never have to deal with things on your own again.
01:19:37You've always made me proud, Roger.
01:19:40I don't blame you for any of this.
01:19:43Come on, let's go home.
01:19:46I don't blame you for anything on your own again.
01:20:04You
