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