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.
00:01:37Hmph.
00:01:38I got no money. Now get lost!
00:01:41You're pathetic.
00:01:43Got me looking so crazy right now.
00:01:47Your love's got me looking so crazy right now.
00:01:52You've got some crazy right now.
00:01:55This is ridiculous.
00:01:56I asked for two guys, not one. I've got customers waiting.
00:02:03Sir, if you're paying, I can do the work.
00:02:07You? This isn't like work. Even men struggle with these crates.
00:02:11I'm stronger than I look. Let me prove it.
00:02:14Why?
00:02:30What's up?
00:02:30What's up?
00:02:32A little bit of grace, a little bit of grace
00:02:36For my family, up and up, up and up
00:02:43For your brain, for your brain, for your brain
00:02:47I'm not a farmer, I'm not a farmer
00:02:52I'm a captain, I'm a captain
00:03:03Mom, I'm home!
00:03:04Hey baby, come here, I got a surprise for you
00:03:14Where'd you get the money?
00:03:15I got lucky, big tips at the restaurant today
00:03:17Mom, your shoulder, you're lying
00:03:21It's just a little scrape, I'm fine baby, really
00:03:24Now be a good boy, take the money, and go sign up tomorrow, yeah?
00:03:29I swear mom, I'm gonna make so much money one day
00:03:33You'll never have to work like this again
00:03:39I know you will baby, I 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! Susan's boy Roger's 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
00:04:24It'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
00:04:34If you hadn't helped cover his tuition back then
00:04:36Roger might have never made it to where he is now
00:04:38Don't mention it
00:04:39We've been grinding together for decades
00:04:41You needed help? We showed up
00:04:43That's what family's for
00:04:44And Roger? He didn't waste it
00:04:45He sure didn't!
00:04:47And I heard he's flying Susan out for his engagement party
00:04:49An engagement party? That's amazing!
00:04:53I've dreamed about this for so long
00:04:55Feels like I can finally look his daddy in the eye and say
00:04:58We did it!
00:04:59Go and represent all of us
00:05:01And take our love with you
00:05:03And don't forget to pack Roger's favorite hot sauce
00:05:12Hey baby, can you believe it?
00:05:16Our boys getting engaged
00:05:18You'd be so proud
00:05:22You gave me this on our wedding day
00:05:24It's my most precious thing
00:05:26But 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, I'll be there in no time
00:06:02Okay sweetheart
00:06:08Congrats boss, Land West Stream and you're golden
00:06:11Big raise, big win
00:06:13Please, my cousin's dating Roger freaking Brown
00:06:17CEO of West Stream?
00:06:19This deal's already sealed
00:06:26Ugh
00:06:27This 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, you're stinking up the whole shop
00:06:44I'm not homeless, I'm just here waiting for my son
00:06:48Then go sit in the bathroom
00:06:52What, you 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
00:07:01People are literally losing their appetite
00:07:04You should be grateful no one's tossed you out yet
00:07:06You stink!
00:07:07Alright, that's enough, this is a public place
00:07:08She has every right to sit here
00:07:10You don't get to treat people like that
00:07:11Yeah, and we don't smell anything
00:07:13She'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
00:07:22Wow, you look put together on the outside
00:07:24But damn, what a rotten soul
00:07:26Who the hell are you calling rotten?
00:07:28I'm just looking out for everyone
00:07:29Nobody wants to sip a $20 latte with a side of dumpster fumes
00:07:33It's fine, I'll go
00:07:37Oh my god, you old hag!
00:07:39Did you see what you did?
00:07:40I'm so sorry
00:07:42Get your filthy hands off me
00:07:45I'm so sorry
00:07:49Stop right there, you thieving bitch!
00:07:56Thief! Somebody get security!
00:07:58This old lady just stole my bracelet
00:08:01No, no, you've got it all wrong
00:08:03I didn't steal anything
00:08:07Then what's that, huh?
00:08:08You're caught red-handed and still spewing lies?
00:08:11This is mine, I swear
00:08:12You can't just accuse me like this
00:08:15Please
00:08:16That bracelet's custom-made, limited edition
00:08:19No offense, but she doesn't exactly scream luxury
00:08:21Looks like a straight-up grab-and-go
00:08:23You 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
00:08:32You still wouldn't afford that
00:08:34Wow, and I actually felt sorry for her
00:08:37I knew something was off
00:08:38Bet she scoped out this place because she knew it's full of rich guys
00:08:41Please don't say that, I didn't steal anything, I swear
00:08:47Still lying?
00:08:48No, this is mine
00:08:51My son gave it to me
00:08:53Your son? What, did he rob a jewelry store?
00:08:55You're a hobo, your son is probably a street criminal
00:08:59Either way, that bracelet does not belong to you
00:09:01Exactly, probably raised a whole nest of pickpockets at home
00:09:06Last chance, old hack
00:09:07Admit it's mine, or I'm calling the cops
00:09:12No, you can't take what's mine
00:09:16Still yapping?
00:09:17Stay down, you filthy hag
00:09:24So that's it? Everyone 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?
00:09:34Since when does being poor make someone a criminal?
00:09:37You want proof? Cool, let's do proof
00:09:39Here, take a good look
00:09:41Official receipt from the boutique
00:09:43Picture, serial number, date, price
00:09:45Right there in black and white
00:09:47You got yours, grandma?
00:09:49I do! My son bought it
00:09:51He has the receipt, I'll call him right now
00:09:54No, no
00:09:56It's dead
00:09:57My phone's dead
00:09:58This is getting sad, just call the cops already
00:10:01She's probably done this before
00:10:03Good idea, and while we're at it
00:10:04Everyone, check your stuff
00:10:06You think she only swiped from me?
00:10:08She's probably been picking pockets all morning
00:10:09Who knows what's in that bag of hers?
00:10:15No!
00:10:17I'm just here to see my son
00:10:19Aww, that's adorable
00:10:21You missed your calling, you should be in Hollywood
00:10:23You got a story for everything
00:10:29That's for my son
00:10:30It's his favorite
00:10:32Why are you doing this?
00:10:34Well that explains the smell
00:10:36Jesus!
00:10:38Ugh, who the hell eats that kind of junk?
00:10:44It...
00:10:45Kinda looks like she was just bringing stuff for her kid
00:10:47I mean, if she came to steal, would she really be lugging around jars of hot sauce?
00:10:53Kinda doesn't add up, yeah?
00:10:57Yeah
00:11:02Well, well, well
00:11:05What do we have here?
00:11:11No, please! Don't touch that!
00:11:18Well, would you look at that?
00:11:20Still wanna play innocent, you lying old hag?
00:11:24That's...
00:11:25That's my wedding necklace
00:11:26My husband gave it to me before he passed
00:11:29Please, just give it back
00:11:30Give me a break, that's the best you've got?
00:11:33A dead husband fairy tale?
00:11:34Try harder!
00:11:35First it's your son buying you designer bracelets
00:11:37Now it's your dead husband dropping pearls from heaven?
00:11:40Lady, come on, you ain't fooling anybody
00:11:41You're not some high society queen
00:11:43You're just trash who can't even look in a mirror!
00:11:45Shit, who keeps something that valuable next to jars of hot sauce?
00:11:49She's a total scam artist
00:11:50No wonder your husband croaked
00:11:53Probably got sick of your lying thieving ass?
00:11:56Better kid's a con too
00:11:58Gotta be real proud with a mom like that
00:12:00I'm not a thief
00:12:02The necklace, it's not stolen
00:12:06The biggest pearl
00:12:08It's engraved with my initial
00:12:16Please, give it back
00:12:18It's all I have left of him
00:12:20So what? It's just an S
00:12:22Could stand for anything
00:12:24Sarah, Sofia, slut
00:12:26Yeah, nice try
00:12:28Anyone could memorize that detail after stealing it
00:12:30You know what?
00:12:32Even if it is yours, I'm not giving it back
00:12:35Ever
00:12:38No! Give it back!
00:12:40No! Give it back!
00:12:41No! Give it back!
00:12:44Wait!
00:12:50Oh my god! The contract! Boss, that's the big one! It's ruined!
00:12:55What happened?
00:13:05You fucking bitch!
00:13:11Do you have any idea what you just destroyed?
00:13:14That deal's worth more than your whole fucking life
00:13:19Get up!
00:13:21I didn't mean to
00:13:24You shoved me
00:13:25I said get up!
00:13:29Or I swear to god
00:13:30I'll lose it
00:13:33No! Please!
00:13:35Do it! After what she ruined
00:13:38This is the least she deserves
00:13:39No!
00:13:41No!
00:14:00We're sorry, the number you have dialed has been disconnected or is no longer in service
00:14:07I can't reach my mom
00:14:08Split up!
00:14:09She's nearby!
00:14:10Right away, boss
00:14:14I can feel it
00:14:19Please
00:14:22Just give me back the necklace
00:14:24I swear, I'm not a thief
00:14:26Aw, sweetie
00:14:28You're not in a place to be asking for favors
00:14:31Hand over the bracelet first
00:14:34No!
00:14:36Please!
00:14:37Can I have my necklace back?
00:14:45No!
00:14:54That's what you get for stealing
00:14:56You nasty old bitch!
00:15:06Look at her, like some stray digging through trash!
00:15:10Next time, keep your filthy hands to yourself
00:15:13You're lucky, we've got bigger fish to fry
00:15:15We're heading to WD to seal a major deal
00:15:17Otherwise, you'd be leaving in an ambulance
00:15:23Wait, did you say WD?
00:15:24You're going to West Dream?
00:15:26You know Roger Brown?
00:15:29Wow!
00:15:30A filthy thief like you knows WD?
00:15:33And can even name their CEO?
00:15:35What are you, his laptop?
00:15:37Roger?
00:15:39Roger Brown's my son
00:15:42I'm going with you to the office
00:15:44My son will clear this out
00:15:46That bracelet's mine
00:15:47And I'm not going anywhere
00:15:50Until my name's cleared
00:15:53Vivian did say Mr. Brown's mom was flying in for the engagement
00:15:56Could it really be her?
00:15:59Could it really be her?
00:15:59You lying psycho!
00:16:01Now you're pretending to be the CEO's mom?
00:16:06Wait!
00:16:10Boss, seriously?
00:16:11You're not buying this, right?
00:16:14There's no way in hell Mr. Brown came from that
00:16:17He runs a trillion dollar empire
00:16:20You really think that mess is his mom?
00:16:23Some crusty thief off the street?
00:16:25Roger really is my son
00:16:27We can go to WD right now
00:16:29He'll tell you himself
00:16:32Or just call him
00:16:34He was supposed to pick me up
00:16:37Roger Brown's on every magazine
00:16:39Every headline
00:16:40She probably saw him on a damn billboard
00:16:42She's bluffing
00:16:43Trying to hustle me
00:16:49Stealing wasn't enough?
00:16:50Now you're trying to pretend you're the CEO's mom?
00:16:53What kind of psycho fantasy is that?
00:16:58You trash like you ought to know your place
00:17:12Mom?
00:17:15Roger?
00:17:20Oh my god
00:17:22It's him!
00:17:23That's really Roger Brown
00:17:25And she's really his mom
00:17:31Mom
00:17:32What happened?
00:17:33Who did this to you?
00:17:45No, I can't let him know
00:17:47If Roger finds out, he'll lose it
00:17:49And tonight's his engagement party
00:17:52I won't let him ruin something so important over me
00:17:57I'm fine honey, it's nothing
00:18:01Someone in here messed with my mom
00:18:02Who was it?
00:18:05Mom, tell me
00:18:06You don't have to be scared
00:18:08Just say the word and I'll make them pay
00:18:10It's nothing
00:18:11I slipped, that's all
00:18:12The necklace, it broke
00:18:14And the hot sauce I brought you
00:18:17I'm sorry sweetheart

00:18:46That old gerbil she's getting into a Rolls Royce?
00:18:50You're seeing things, there's no way
00:18:52A trash like her probably couldn't spell Rolls Royce

00:30:52i was thinking
00:30:53maybe it's time you finally let the cat out the bag
00:30:55at the very least it would drive up sales and bring more publicity to new products
00:31:00emily you know me
00:31:01i want this company judged by the quality of its products
00:31:04not by who owns it
00:31:06that's why i stay out of the spotlight
00:31:07sir i know you started out as the hard-working ceo
00:31:11who was always in the trenches with the rest of the staff
00:31:13but you bought west stream outright three years ago

00:39:06i don't care if it's just a drill you can't treat people like garbage
00:39:10bitch. Take it off. Sir, sir, she asked for it. Said it'd help her get into the role. We paid
00:39:17her
00:39:17extra. She wanted to go all in. If that's what she asked for, then fine. But don't push it.
00:39:30Move. Now.
00:39:37Better keep quiet, you dried up, bitch. One more sound and I'll shut you up for good.
00:39:50Hold it right there.
00:39:56I forgot to ask about Vivian. Everything good on her end?
00:39:59Yes, sir. She's handling the contract signing of 3CF right now and once that's done, she'll head
00:40:04straight to the engagement party. The venue's all set up and ready to go.
00:40:08Good.
00:40:14Vivian, today has been nothing but chaos. What do you say we call Roger over and have him sign
00:40:18before anything else comes up? No need for that. Roger already put me in charge of this
00:40:23deal. I came here to sign on his behalf. Really? Oh my god, thank you!
00:40:31Not bad, Lisa. Your work's improving. At this rate, 3CF will be promoting you in no time.
00:40:36Well, hey, I'll have you to thank for giving me my big break. This contract is huge for me.
00:40:41Let me grab a pen. You're all invited to the engagement party tonight. Roger's mom is coming
00:40:46to town for the first time and I'm sure she would love to meet you.
00:40:49Miss Thomas, thank you. It's truly an honor.
00:40:51This contract's just the beginning. I'll be relying on you and Lisa to stay on top of
00:40:55things from here on out. Absolutely, Mayhem. You can count on us.
00:41:09What kind of pen is it? It's diamond-stettled. I had it custom-made for his birthday. He always
00:41:15keeps it here. Diamond-stettled? Shit, that's got to be worth like five figures.
00:41:22Wait, do you think... That thief! I knew she was up to no good. You two hold tight. I'll
00:41:29bring her back here right now. Look what the cat dragged in, Mrs. Thomas.
00:41:41Did Roger clear everything up? Did he tell you who I am?
00:41:46You thieving hag. You think we don't know why you came here? Hand over the damn pen.
00:41:51What? What pen?
00:41:55Cut the act, Grandma. You stole the CEO's diamond-stretched pen, a birthday gift to Mr.
00:42:01Brown from the vice president herself. That thing's priceless.
00:42:04I don't know what you're talking about. I promise you, I've never even seen that pen.
00:42:08You lying sack of shit! We were going to use that pen to sign my fucking contract. Hand
00:42:12it over! I don't have it. Please, this is all a mistake. No, I didn't take Roger's pen. You've
00:42:18got this all wrong! Hold her down.
00:42:23Of all the things to steal, you pick my most precious gift to Roger, you'll be lucky to
00:42:28walk out of here alive. Stop! Why are you doing this? Why won't any of you believe me?
00:42:33Are you kidding? Everything about you literally screams, I'm a thief!
00:42:38Quit your whining and hand over Mr. Brown's pen. Maybe then we'll let you out in one
00:42:43piece.
00:42:46I don't have it. I swear to God, I don't have it.
00:42:52Stubborn old bitch! You think we're just fucking around here? Get me a bucket of water!
00:42:57Now!
00:43:02Lift her up.
00:43:09That pen isn't just expensive. It's the first gift I ever gave Roger. It's irreplaceable.
00:43:15So you better cough it up now before I go apeshit on your ass.
00:43:18I didn't take it.
00:43:28Hey, babe.
00:43:29Hey, just checking in. How's the contract signing going?
00:43:32All good so far. We'll be done any minute now.
00:43:38Roger, you have to save me.
00:43:43Was that Mom?
00:43:46What was that?
00:43:47Oh, that sound? I was just changing the water in your vase, that's all.
00:43:52I could have sworn I just heard someone crying out for help.
00:44:00You must be overworked, babe.
00:44:03Maybe squeeze in a nap this afternoon, okay?
00:44:14Yeah, we'll see.
00:44:16Anyways, feel free to sweeten the deal with Lisa, as long as it's within reason, of course.
00:44:20You know, seeing as she's your cousin and all.
00:44:22That's so generous of you. She'll be thrilled.
00:44:25Roger, you're the best.
00:44:26Don't mention it.
00:44:31Grinkly old bitch, you almost fucked this up for all of us.
00:44:34Get it through your head.
00:44:36No one's gonna save you.
00:44:37Give us that damn pen right now or I'll dunk your head again.
00:44:41And this time, you won't come back up.
00:44:44Are you fucking kidding me?
00:44:46I didn't steal. I'm not a thief.
00:44:52I've got the pen.
00:44:54Mr. Brown used it this morning to sign the quarterly records.
00:44:57He handed it to me right after.
00:45:01Oh, well, that explains it.
00:45:04I was afraid Roger lost it or something.
00:45:08Good to see you, Miss Anderson.
00:45:09Who is this lady?
00:45:11Why are you guys acting all weird around her?
00:45:14That's Emily Anderson, Roger's personal assistant.
00:45:17I know, not the highest position,
00:45:19but she's the only one in this entire building
00:45:21that knows who really owns the company.
00:45:31What's all this?
00:45:34And why are you all in the CEO's office?
00:45:37We're in the middle of catching a thief, Mrs. Anderson.
00:45:40This woman here snuck into Roger's office
00:45:42and tried to make off with some loot.
00:45:45That's not true.
00:45:46I'm not a thief.
00:45:48Shut the fuck up.
00:45:50You guys got proof?
00:45:51Um, not yet, but...
00:45:54Then nothing's confirmed.
00:45:56Listen, Weststream has a security team.
00:45:59People whose job it is to deal with matters like this.
00:46:07This is the CEO's office, not a torture chamber.
00:46:10Yes, of course.
00:46:11Oh, by the way, Mr. Brown asked me to finalize the 3CF deal.
00:46:14We were just about to sign the contract.
00:46:16Yes, Miss Anderson.
00:46:17I'm Lisa Smith, the sales manager over at 3CF.
00:46:20We're here today to lock in the partnership.
00:46:24Mr. Brown's meeting should be wrapping up any minute.
00:46:26I suggest you all head to the banquet hall
00:46:27and wait for him there.
00:46:28Perfect.
00:46:29We'll bring the contract and sign it in the banquet hall.
00:46:31Escort her out
00:46:32and give me a full report once they investigate her.
00:46:35Yes, ma'am.
00:46:36And get someone to clean up this mess.
00:46:38I want this room spotless.
00:46:40Yes, certainly.
00:46:44Let's go.
00:46:47Ma'am, we're going to need to take you in for questioning.
00:46:53What the hell are you doing to my mother?
00:47:00Sir, she was just...
00:47:02She's my mother!
00:47:14Mom, what the hell happened to you?
00:47:18Roger, I don't want to go to the party anymore.
00:47:21Can you just take me home?
00:47:25Did someone hurt you?
00:47:31Who did this?
00:47:35It was the vice president, sir.
00:47:38Vivian did this to her?
00:47:40But why?
00:47:42Vivian's cousin Lisa.
00:47:43She said your mom was a thief.
00:47:46I thought your fiancé would be warm, kind.
00:47:49But she's awful, Roger.
00:47:52I tried to tell her who I was, but she wouldn't listen.
00:47:56Tell Emily to prepare the car.
00:47:58We're going to the banquet now.
00:48:00Yes, sir.
00:48:23Boss.
00:48:24This engagement party is off the chain.
00:48:27Half the city's big names are here.
00:48:29Well, yeah, that's a given.
00:48:31Roger Brown's a rising star in the business world,
00:48:33and Vivian's parents are heavyweight investors in their own right.
00:48:37This isn't just some party, Jessica.
00:48:39It could shake up the whole damn stock market.
00:48:48Congrats, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas.
00:48:49Roger's a real catch.
00:48:51Vivian's done well for herself.
00:48:52I couldn't care less about his money or status.
00:48:56What matters is that my daughter's happy.
00:48:58Spoken like a true girl, Dad.
00:48:59You've always been her biggest supporter.
00:49:01Miss Thomas is here!
00:49:20Vivian, you look like a queen.
00:49:27Thank you all so much for being here on this special day.
00:49:29And please, enjoy the food and drinks.
00:49:32The ceremony will begin shortly.
00:49:38Mom, Dad, I'm so glad you could make it.
00:49:41We wouldn't miss this for the world.
00:49:44You look stunning.
00:49:45That's just because of the necklace I picked out for her.
00:49:48You like it, sweetheart?
00:49:52It's perfect, Dad.
00:49:55Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Roger Brown has arrived!
00:50:16Whoa, what the hell?
00:50:18Dude, he's pissed.
00:50:19That is not the face of a man who's about to get engaged.
00:50:23Right?
00:50:24He looks like he's here to throw hands, not throw a party.
00:50:27And why is he rolling up with bodyguards and shit?
00:50:29Man, the Thomas family isn't going to like this.
00:50:31To be honest, though, if I were the West Stream CEO, I'd probably be pulling power moves like that, too.
00:50:36Oh, come on.
00:50:37Let's not get carried away.
00:50:38The guy's a CEO, not a fucking royal prince.
00:50:40Exactly.
00:50:41He needs to slow his roll.
00:50:42This place is filled with people who rake in just as much as he does.
00:50:49So this is how you greet your elders, huh?
00:50:51With a scowl and a squad of bodyguards?
00:50:54Dad, relax.
00:50:55He probably just rushed over, that's all.
00:51:01Roger, what's wrong?
00:51:02Where's your mom?
00:51:20What the fuck are you doing here?
00:51:24You crusty old hag.
00:51:27This is an exclusive event, not a soup kitchen.
00:51:30Get the hell out!
00:51:34Mr. Brown?
00:51:36What was that for?
00:51:38You tell me.
00:51:40Oh, I get it.
00:51:42This granny must have fed you some sob story, right?
00:51:45Sir, trust me.
00:51:46Everything she told you was a lie.
00:51:48But don't worry, Mr. Brown.
00:51:49I'll put an end to this once and for all.
00:51:56Roger!
00:52:01What the hell has gotten into you?
00:52:02It's just like Jimmy said.
00:52:03This lady's a thief, a worthless street rat.
00:52:06So whatever you're doing, just stop.
00:52:08It's an insult to my parents and everyone else here.
00:52:10A thief?
00:52:11A street rat?
00:52:12As VP of Westream, that's your official assessment?
00:52:14Mr. Brown, I can vouch for Vivian.
00:52:17That woman's a thief.
00:52:27Roger, what the fuck is going on?
00:52:29Say it again, Lisa.
00:52:30Say it to my face.
00:52:32Who's the thief?
00:52:33Mr. Brown?
00:52:36There must be some kind of misunderstanding.
00:52:38Roger, enough.
00:52:40This place is full of VIP guests.
00:52:41It isn't the time for theatrics.
00:52:43Actually, I think it's the perfect time.
00:52:44Hand me the contract.
00:52:49You're fired.
00:52:50No, Mr. Brown.
00:52:52Please don't do this.
00:52:54After what you did to her,
00:52:55you can forget about ever partnering with Westream Corporation.
00:52:59You?
00:53:00You did this?
00:53:01You set me up, you cognizing old...
00:53:03If I were you, I'd lower your goddamn finger.
00:53:05I didn't set you up.
00:53:06I didn't have to.
00:53:07You did what you did,
00:53:08and now you're facing the consequences.
00:53:10Roger, are you seriously humiliating my cousin over some binong?
00:53:14This cousin of yours brutalized a defenseless old woman,
00:53:16mocked her, dehumanized her,
00:53:17and accused her of theft with zero proof.
00:53:19Tell me,
00:53:20is that the type of person we should be doing business with?
00:53:23Accused her of theft?
00:53:24We all know that bitch stole my bracelet.
00:53:33Wait, this...
00:53:34This bracelet...
00:53:35You bought it?
00:53:36I bought it for the woman standing next to me.
00:53:38My mother.
00:53:44Roger.
00:53:46Her?
00:53:47She's your mom?
00:53:48My future mother-in-law?
00:53:52Roger, I'm sorry.
00:53:54I didn't know.
00:53:55I had no clue she was your mother.
00:53:56This is the woman who raised me,
00:53:58fed me,
00:53:59tucked me into bed at night,
00:54:00and you have the nerve to suggest
00:54:02I'm just making all this up to humiliate your cousin?
00:54:05No, no.
00:54:07Roger, that's not what I meant.
00:54:12I'm so sorry, Mr. Brown.
00:54:14I didn't know she was your mother.
00:54:16I was wrong.
00:54:17I should have been more discerning.
00:54:18All I ask is that you give me one more chance.
00:54:21Yes, Mr. Brown.
00:54:22We didn't mean any harm.
00:54:24Just please,
00:54:25please don't ruin us over this.
00:54:30Mrs. Brown,
00:54:32I'm sorry.
00:54:34I didn't mean to disrespect you.
00:54:36Please forgive me.
00:54:38No.
00:54:39You're only apologizing
00:54:40because you found out she's my mother.
00:54:42If she were just a stranger,
00:54:43just another woman on the street,
00:54:45would you still begging for forgiveness like this?
00:54:49That's what I thought.
00:54:51Now get the hell out.
00:54:55Vivian,
00:54:56please,
00:54:57say something.
00:54:58This contract is everything to me.
00:55:00I promised my boss I would seal the deal
00:55:03if I go back empty-handed.
00:55:05He'll fire me.
00:55:08Leave, Lisa.
00:55:09We'll talk later.
00:55:14Please, Viv.
00:55:16Please don't do this to me.
00:55:18Just go.
00:55:25You two, out.
00:55:27Yes, Miss Thomas.
00:55:29Don't move!
00:55:31You're not just walking out of here
00:55:33after all that you did.
00:55:37Ma'am, I'm terribly sorry.
00:55:39I already regret how I treated you.
00:55:41Please,
00:55:42please show me some mercy.
00:55:48Take this criminal to the police station
00:55:50along with the surveillance footage from my office.
00:55:53Assaulting an elderly woman
00:55:54should land him a nice long vacation behind bars.
00:55:57Yes, sir.
00:56:00Mr. Brown,
00:56:01please.
00:56:01I screwed up.
00:56:02I swear I'll make it right.
00:56:03Get him out of my sight.
00:56:04Mr. Brown,
00:56:05I'm begging you.
00:56:06Whatever you want,
00:56:07I'll do it.
00:56:07Just please don't send me to jail.
00:56:11Ah!
00:56:13Ah!
00:56:15Ah!
00:56:16Ah!
00:56:17Mrs. Brown,
00:56:18I can't tell you how sorry I am.
00:56:19This was supposed to be a happy day,
00:56:21and I know things didn't go as planned,
00:56:23but I hope you won't hold it against me.
00:56:25Lucy,
00:56:26bring over the gift.
00:56:30I picked these out for you as a welcome gift.
00:56:33I hope you find them to your liking.
00:56:36Didn't go as planned?
00:56:38You and your cousin put my mother
00:56:40through a day straight from hell,
00:56:43but things just didn't go as planned?
00:56:47Roger,
00:56:47let it go.
00:56:48It was a misunderstanding.
00:56:50Okay,
00:56:50look at her.
00:56:51She's dressed up so beautifully tonight.
00:56:52All for you.
00:56:53No,
00:56:53it's not for me.
00:56:53It's just for show.
00:56:54Vivian,
00:56:55you looked down on my mom.
00:56:55You called her a street rat.
00:56:56So what does that make me then?
00:56:57The street rat son that she worked day and night
00:56:59to raise by herself?
00:57:00Roger,
00:57:02please.
00:57:03The guests are all waiting.
00:57:05They didn't come here to see us bigger
00:57:07about personal matters like this.
00:57:09Let's just cut the cake and take photos,
00:57:11and then we'll talk after.
00:57:12Okay?
00:57:19Bring out the cake.
00:57:26Roger,
00:57:26don't be mad,
00:57:27all right?
00:57:28We can sit down and talk it over
00:57:30after everyone leaves.
00:57:32For now,
00:57:32let's just put on a big smile
00:57:34and enjoy our perfect moment.
00:57:36Actually,
00:57:37you know what would make this moment perfect?
00:57:40showing the guests here every little thing you did to my mother.
00:57:58That pen isn't just expensive.
00:58:00It's the first gift I ever gave Roger.
00:58:03It's irreplaceable.
00:58:04So you better cough it up now
00:58:06before I go ape shit on your ass.
00:58:08I didn't take it.
00:58:11Oh my God.
00:58:12Is that what it looks like?
00:58:15She's torturing her future mother-in-law?
00:58:16This is so much worse than I thought.
00:58:18She really could have hurt her.
00:58:20Wonder Roger lost it.
00:58:22That was my mom.
00:58:23Whoever did that to her
00:58:24would be in the hospital by now.
00:58:27Roger,
00:58:27please.
00:58:28Turn it off.
00:58:31No one was supposed to see this.
00:58:34So now you feel ashamed, huh?
00:58:38Where was this when you were busy
00:58:39trying to drown my mother?
00:58:40Roger,
00:58:40my parents are watching,
00:58:41for God's sake.
00:58:43What are you trying to do?
00:58:44Apologize to my mother,
00:58:45right now.
00:58:46What?
00:58:46Babe,
00:58:47of course I'll apologize to her later.
00:58:49But I can't stand back
00:58:50and let you publicly humiliate me like this.
00:58:52You heard what I said.
00:58:54Don't make me repeat it.
00:58:55Mrs. Brown,
00:58:56please.
00:58:57Make him turn it off.
00:58:59You're a kind woman.
00:59:00You understand how bad this looks for me
00:59:02and my family,
00:59:03right?
00:59:05Roger,
00:59:06don't you think this has gone far enough?
00:59:08Vivian and I just got off
00:59:09on the wrong foot.
00:59:10That's all.
00:59:11This is your big nay.
00:59:13Let's forget about it
00:59:14and carry on with the party.
00:59:16Mom,
00:59:18you still want me to get engaged
00:59:19to this woman?
00:59:21Vivian and I just got off
00:59:22on the wrong foot.
00:59:23That's all.
00:59:23This is your big day.
00:59:25Let's forget about it
00:59:26and carry on with the party.
00:59:35Roger!
00:59:36What the hell was that?
00:59:38That's our event cake!
00:59:40Not anymore.
00:59:41The engagement's off.
00:59:43What?
00:59:46Enough!
00:59:47Who the hell are you
00:59:48to damage my daughter's reputation like this?
00:59:51If we played a video
00:59:52of your lowest moment
00:59:53in front of everyone,
00:59:54it would probably look
00:59:55just as bad.
00:59:57This is an unwarranted attack
00:59:58on the entire Thomas family.
01:00:01Exactly!
01:00:02First you broadcast that footage,
01:00:04then you trash the cake.
01:00:06What kind of man
01:00:07treats his own fiancé like this?
01:00:09The question you should be asking is,
01:00:11what kind of family
01:00:12raises their daughter
01:00:13to treat innocent people like that?
01:00:16Mrs. Thomas,
01:00:17please don't take this to heart.
01:00:19My son's just a little wound up there.
01:00:22Roger,
01:00:23you don't need to throw away
01:00:25your future over what happened with me.
01:00:27Vivian isn't my future now.
01:00:28She's my past.
01:00:30And that's set in stone.
01:00:32You arrogant bastard!
01:00:34Think you're some big shot, huh?
01:00:36You're just another wannabe
01:00:38tough guy in a suit!
01:00:40Dad, stop!
01:00:41He's the CEO!
01:00:45Who cares?
01:00:46He still answers to us!
01:00:49You think I'd let my daughter
01:00:50work under someone
01:00:51I didn't control?
01:00:54Vivian,
01:00:55Roger didn't make you
01:00:56the VP of Westream.
01:00:58I did.
01:01:00And that's because
01:01:01I'm a shareholder
01:01:02of the company.
01:01:03Your uncles,
01:01:04Daniel and Cooper,
01:01:06they are too.
01:01:07Wait, wait.
01:01:08Dad,
01:01:09you're a Westream shareholder?
01:01:10So I'm,
01:01:12I'm above all this?
01:01:14I'm above all this?
01:01:16Roger,
01:01:17this changes everything.
01:01:22That's right, Vivian.
01:01:24We just closed a joint investment.
01:01:27You don't need to be afraid of Roger.
01:01:29He's just another salaried employee.
01:01:31He has no real power over you.
01:01:34Exactly.
01:01:35Roger's a cheap figurehead.
01:01:37He showed some promise at the start,
01:01:38so we overlooked his humble background,
01:01:40but now?
01:01:41Turns out he's an ungrateful,
01:01:43uncivilized scumbag.
01:01:44Don't waste your time with him, Vivian.
01:01:46You can do so much better.
01:01:48Roger's jeopardizing his marriage
01:01:50and his career because of me.
01:01:52No.
01:01:52I can't let this spiral any further.
01:01:55Mrs. Thomas, please.
01:01:57Don't let this little incident
01:01:58ruin their future together.
01:02:00Roger and Vivian,
01:02:01they're in love with each other.
01:02:03In love?
01:02:04Don't be ridiculous.
01:02:06I'm a shareholder's daughter,
01:02:08which means a janitor's son like Roger
01:02:10has no business standing anywhere near me.
01:02:13This relationship never should have happened
01:02:15in the first place.
01:02:16My daughter's brilliant and beautiful.
01:02:19Only someone like that mysterious Westream owner
01:02:21would be worthy her.
01:02:25You know,
01:02:26that's a good point.
01:02:28I've heard our mystery owner
01:02:29is a real heartthrog.
01:02:31Vivian,
01:02:32I'll make sure to introduce you to him
01:02:33when the time's right.
01:02:36Thanks, Uncle Daniel.
01:02:37I'd like that.
01:02:46It's funny.
01:02:47I thought I said it pretty clearly
01:02:48the first time.
01:02:49Apologize to my mother right now.
01:02:52Did you not hear what my dad just said?
01:02:54He's a Westream shareholder
01:02:55and you're just some piss-poor beggar
01:02:57trying to fake it as a businessman.
01:02:59Want me to apologize to your crusty mom
01:03:01over my dead fucking body?
01:03:03And just why should I be so scared
01:03:05of your shareholder dad?
01:03:08Watch it, Roger.
01:03:09Don't make him put you in your place.
01:03:12Right, my place.
01:03:14I suppose it's the perfect time
01:03:16to show you all what that place is.
01:03:30Dad, fire this arrogant prank now!
01:03:34Roger, I'm sick and tired
01:03:36of you disrespecting me
01:03:37in front of my guests.
01:03:38This is your last shot.
01:03:40Give us a public apology
01:03:41or you can pack your damn things
01:03:42and get the hell out of Westream.
01:03:44Oh, Roger, this is all my fault.
01:03:47Please.
01:03:48I don't want you to lose your job
01:03:50because of me.
01:03:52Mom, nothing is your fault.
01:03:55And don't worry.
01:03:56They don't have the authority to fire me.
01:03:58We don't, do we?
01:03:59Oh, my God.
01:04:01This kid really thinks he's untouchable.
01:04:03Between Daniel, Cooper, and I,
01:04:05we own over 30% of Westream.
01:04:07Removing a placeholder CEO like him
01:04:09barely even calls for a meeting.
01:04:11True that.
01:04:13Roger's just some hot-headed chump
01:04:14in a nice suit.
01:04:16Still has no idea how the game works.
01:04:18If you know what's good for you,
01:04:20you'll hurry up and apologize.
01:04:23I'll apologize.
01:04:24I'll do it!
01:04:26No, Mom.
01:04:28You, you raised me.
01:04:29You've already done more than enough.
01:04:31You don't owe a thing to me
01:04:32or to these goons.
01:04:34But, Roger, these people,
01:04:36they hold your future
01:04:38in the palm of their hands.
01:04:41I just thought I might be able to help.
01:04:43I couldn't care less
01:04:44about who these people are.
01:04:46They mean nothing to me.
01:04:48All right, then I won't do it for you.
01:04:49I'll apologize on my own behalf.
01:04:58Mr. Thomas,
01:04:59I'm truly sorry
01:05:00for what transpired today.
01:05:02Please don't punish Roger
01:05:03for my mistakes.
01:05:04He can be stubborn sometimes,
01:05:06but he's a good man,
01:05:07a hard worker.
01:05:11God, Roger,
01:05:13I can see why Vivian
01:05:14thought your mother was a thief.
01:05:15She looks like she crawled
01:05:17out of a fucking dumpster.
01:05:18Not to mention,
01:05:19she absolutely reeks.
01:05:21How could anyone not assume
01:05:22she's just some bottom feeder?
01:05:26What did you just say?
01:05:32Did I stutter?
01:05:33Don't tell me you've never noticed
01:05:35that your own mother
01:05:35looks like a grimy
01:05:36street-side bum.
01:05:42Ah!
01:05:43Ah!
01:05:44Ah!
01:05:45Ah!
01:05:45Oh!
01:05:47Oh!
01:05:49Mom,
01:05:51stop pouring drinks
01:05:52for these ignorant fools.
01:05:53They don't deserve
01:05:54a shred of our respect.
01:05:57Ah!
01:06:00Watch your tone, Roger!
01:06:01Who the hell
01:06:02are you calling ignorant?
01:06:03You, that's who.
01:06:04A man so obsessed
01:06:05with flaunting his class
01:06:07that he doesn't realize
01:06:07how classless he really is.
01:06:09God damn you, Roger!
01:06:11That's my father
01:06:11you're talking to!
01:06:13I'm well aware.
01:06:14Keep pushing me
01:06:15and next time
01:06:16I'll use my fists
01:06:16instead of words.
01:06:30Roger, sweetheart.
01:06:32You've worked too hard
01:06:33to throw it all away now.
01:06:35Don't let your temper
01:06:36get the best of you, okay?
01:06:38Just be the bigger person
01:06:39and apologize.
01:06:40Too late for that now.
01:06:44I'm contacting Emily.
01:06:46She'll call the board
01:06:47and Roger will be out
01:06:48as CEO by nightfall.
01:06:49You have my full support.
01:06:51This is exactly
01:06:52the kind of hot-headed nonsense
01:06:53we warned the board about.
01:06:54He's done.
01:06:56Let him see what it feels like
01:06:58to wake up unemployed.
01:06:59Maybe then he'll learn
01:07:00to show some humility.
01:07:05Messaging Emily now.
01:07:06This asshole won't be talking
01:07:08shit anymore
01:07:09when he's out on the streets.
01:07:15Mr. Thomas, please
01:07:17don't make any decisions
01:07:18you'll regret.
01:07:19I'll apologize for Roger.
01:07:21Just please let him
01:07:22keep his job.
01:07:24Roger, baby.
01:07:26Just swallow your pride
01:07:27and say sorry.
01:07:28You'll be glad you did.
01:07:30Mom, trust me.
01:07:31I'm going to be just fine.
01:07:33This is all my fault.
01:07:35If I hadn't come today,
01:07:37none of this would have happened.
01:07:39No, Mom.
01:07:40I should thank you.
01:07:43You helped me see
01:07:44the Thomases
01:07:45for who they really are.
01:07:46You'll be jobless
01:07:47in ten minutes, Roger.
01:07:49Maybe start updating
01:07:50your resume
01:07:51instead of playing
01:07:51Mr. Tough Guy.
01:08:03Just heard back from Emily.
01:08:08She's arranged for
01:08:09Westream's mystery owner
01:08:11to come here
01:08:11and settle this in person.
01:08:17Once this punk's gone,
01:08:19we'll nominate Vivian
01:08:20as the new CEO.
01:08:21You better believe it.
01:08:22Vivian's young,
01:08:23capable, driven.
01:08:25I guarantee she'll take us
01:08:26to the next level.
01:08:32Thank you, all of you.
01:08:33And I won't let you down.
01:08:35I'm going to be the best CEO
01:08:36Westream has ever had.
01:08:50Ugh, look at him.
01:08:52Still pretending like he has a job.
01:08:54Once my daughter's CEO,
01:08:55she'll clean house.
01:08:57That means everyone
01:08:57who might even think
01:08:58of vouching for Roger
01:08:59is getting sacked.
01:09:00If I were you,
01:09:01I'd be begging Vivian
01:09:02to show a little mercy.
01:09:03Who knows?
01:09:04It might save you
01:09:05from starving.
01:09:05Oh, that must be
01:09:06how you guys
01:09:06became shareholders.
01:09:07By graveling
01:09:08and begging for mercy
01:09:09like spinless cowards.
01:09:10Time's up, Roger.
01:09:11No more running your mouth.
01:09:12You have two options.
01:09:13Publicly apologize
01:09:14to my father
01:09:14or wait for the board members
01:09:15to fucking obliterate you.
01:09:17Please, Vivian.
01:09:17Think about how much
01:09:18you cared for Roger
01:09:19just yesterday.
01:09:20It's not worth
01:09:20ending his career
01:09:21over a fight.
01:09:22If an apology
01:09:22is what you want,
01:09:23then let me do it.
01:09:24I'll get on stage
01:09:24and scream it
01:09:25in front of all the guests
01:09:26if that's what it takes.
01:09:27Well, well.
01:09:28Let's see how sincere
01:09:30she really is.
01:09:34No, Mom.
01:09:34No.
01:09:35They're the ones
01:09:36who should be doing this,
01:09:37not you.
01:09:37You motherfucker.
01:09:39Sacking you isn't enough.
01:09:40We ought to beat you
01:09:41black and blue.
01:09:53Mrs. Anderson.
01:09:55Why are you alone?
01:09:56I thought you were
01:09:56bringing the chairman.
01:09:58Yes.
01:09:59Where is he?
01:10:00Should I go
01:10:00pick him up myself?
01:10:01That won't be necessary.
01:10:03He's already nearby.
01:10:06Thought you were
01:10:06bringing the chairman.
01:10:09Roger,
01:10:09you have to stop
01:10:10being so impulsive.
01:10:12Your future matters
01:10:13more than my dignity.
01:10:14You're wrong, Mom.
01:10:15Nothing matters
01:10:16more than your dignity.
01:10:17Nothing.
01:10:18And plus,
01:10:20I'd be more worried
01:10:21about their future
01:10:22than mine.
01:10:23Don't get too cocky, kid.
01:10:25The whole board's
01:10:26already signed off
01:10:27on your removal.
01:10:28You'll be drowning
01:10:29in your own tears
01:10:30before you know it.
01:10:32Mr. Thomas,
01:10:33the chairman clearly
01:10:34doesn't have much patience
01:10:35for your rambling.
01:10:36Why don't you just
01:10:37cut to the chase?
01:10:43Great.
01:10:44Then let's make it official.
01:10:46Mrs. Anderson,
01:10:47please promptly inform
01:10:48the board that we,
01:10:49the shareholder present
01:10:50in the room,
01:10:51have agreed to remove
01:10:52Roger Brown as CEO
01:10:53of Westream.
01:10:55Vivian Thomas will be
01:10:56appointed in his place.
01:10:58That's right.
01:10:59The vote is unanimous.
01:11:06There's no need
01:11:07to pass this on
01:11:07to the board.
01:11:08The chairman rejects
01:11:09your decision.
01:11:11Excuse me?
01:11:12Emily, the chairman's
01:11:13not even here.
01:11:14How the hell would you
01:11:15know what he thinks
01:11:15about it?
01:11:18Would you like
01:11:18to confirm it yourself,
01:11:20Mr. Chairman?
01:11:24What do you mean,
01:11:26Mr. Chairman?
01:11:29You still don't get it?
01:11:33It's me.
01:11:34I'm the chairman.
01:11:42This is hilarious.
01:11:44Roger can't even tell
01:11:45the difference
01:11:45between a CEO
01:11:46and an owner.
01:11:47Is anyone going to
01:11:48break the news to him?
01:11:49Kid's delusional.
01:11:50Must have hit his head
01:11:51or something.
01:11:52Roger, I get it.
01:11:54We backed you
01:11:54into a corner
01:11:55and now you're scared.
01:11:57But this?
01:11:58Really?
01:11:59Did you forget
01:12:00that Emily's met
01:12:01the real boss?
01:12:02You can't just lie
01:12:03to her face
01:12:04and get away with it.
01:12:06Mr. Brown isn't lying.
01:12:10He's the owner
01:12:10of Westream.
01:12:16Three years ago,
01:12:18Mr. Brown acquired
01:12:19over 60%
01:12:20of Westream's shares
01:12:21as a private investor.
01:12:22To avoid scrutiny,
01:12:24he chose to remain
01:12:24anonymous and face
01:12:25the public
01:12:26as company's CEO.
01:12:28Sweet mother of God.
01:12:30He really is the owner.
01:12:32It's all over.
01:12:33No, no.
01:12:34This is fake.
01:12:35This has to be fake.
01:12:36He paid you off,
01:12:37didn't he?
01:12:38You're covering for him.
01:12:39Don't think I won't
01:12:40call the police
01:12:41and have you arrested
01:12:41for fraud.
01:12:42Please, call them
01:12:44and have them
01:12:44look into it.
01:12:45That'll only confirm
01:12:46Mr. Brown's identity
01:12:48faster.
01:13:02Now, remind me,
01:13:04what was this board meeting
01:13:06supposed to be about?
01:13:11What a silly misunderstanding
01:13:13this all was,
01:13:14Mr. Brown.
01:13:15No hard feelings, right?
01:13:17Why don't we carry on
01:13:18with the engagement party?
01:13:19Your lovely mother
01:13:20came all this way
01:13:21for your special day.
01:13:23We wouldn't want
01:13:23to disappoint her.
01:13:25You can go fuck yourself.
01:13:27Roger, you little...
01:13:28Vivian, watch your mouth.
01:13:31That's your boss
01:13:31you're talking to.
01:13:33Shit.
01:13:34Okay, he's really the boss.
01:13:36I have to shift the game plan
01:13:37to saving my career.
01:13:39The good thing is,
01:13:39Roger and I have real feelings
01:13:41for each other.
01:13:42Maybe Mom's right.
01:13:43If I apologize fast enough,
01:13:44I can still salvage this.
01:13:46Please don't call off
01:13:47our engagement.
01:13:48Please don't call off
01:13:49our engagement.
01:13:50I'll be good to your mom.
01:13:52I'll take care of her
01:13:52like she's my own.
01:13:57Never seen anyone
01:13:58switch sides that fast.
01:14:01Impressive.
01:14:02Too bad it doesn't matter.
01:14:05Mrs. Brown!
01:14:06Please talk to him.
01:14:08Don't let him throw away
01:14:10what we had.
01:14:12I'll never love anyone
01:14:12but him!
01:14:15Then tell me this.
01:14:17Do you really want
01:14:18to marry my son?
01:14:20Or do you want to marry
01:14:21the man who owns
01:14:2260% of this company?
01:14:29If you're going to beg my mom,
01:14:30at least make it convincing.
01:14:40Mrs. Brown,
01:14:41I'm so...
01:14:47Stop embarrassing yourself,
01:14:48Vivian.
01:14:49Just looking at you
01:14:50makes my skin crawl.
01:14:52Roger, please.
01:14:54Let's just pretend
01:14:54this never happened.
01:14:56I didn't want you
01:14:56to get fired.
01:14:57It was all my dad.
01:14:59Ah, yes.
01:15:00Your dad.
01:15:02You must be very proud
01:15:04of the monster
01:15:04you raised, Sam.
01:15:06Vivian Thomas?
01:15:08You're fired.
01:15:09And you can forget
01:15:10about ever working
01:15:11at Westream again.
01:15:12No!
01:15:13Roger, please, no!
01:15:16Dad, do something!
01:15:17I gave everything
01:15:18to this company!
01:15:19I can't go down like this!
01:15:21Mr. Brown,
01:15:22I realize you're
01:15:23the majority owner
01:15:24but I'm still a shareholder.
01:15:25You and I,
01:15:26we should be working together.
01:15:29And sir,
01:15:31you can't just dismiss
01:15:32High's high-level employees
01:15:33without consulting me first.
01:15:35It's reckless.
01:15:35You think you still
01:15:36have a say in this company?
01:15:37I can snatch away
01:15:38your measly little share
01:15:39with the flick of a wrist.
01:15:41Cool it, buddy.
01:15:43We're not gonna hand over
01:15:44our shares
01:15:45just because you ask.
01:15:47Whoa, whoa.
01:15:48Sam,
01:15:48don't drag me into this, man.
01:15:49If push comes to shove,
01:15:50I'm siding with Mr. Brown.
01:15:52Yeah!
01:15:53You're the one
01:15:53who started all this!
01:15:55Mr. Brown,
01:15:56I'm sorry.
01:15:56I was misled.
01:15:58I let my judgment slip.
01:15:59It won't happen again.
01:16:02You filthy,
01:16:04rotten bastards!
01:16:07You two want
01:16:08a second chance?
01:16:09Fine.
01:16:13But your daughter
01:16:14abused my mother
01:16:15and that means
01:16:17your whole family
01:16:18is going to pay.
01:16:22Just say the word,
01:16:24Mr. Brown.
01:16:26Sam sure runs his mouth
01:16:27a lot for a guy
01:16:28who has nothing
01:16:28worth saying.
01:16:30Let's see if he keeps
01:16:30jabbering after he gets
01:16:31a few teeth knocked out.
01:16:35Yes, sir.
01:16:48Either you help him out
01:16:50or you're next in line.
01:16:55Mr. Brown,
01:16:56please tell them
01:16:56to stop!
01:16:58They're going to
01:16:58kill my husband!
01:17:02Funny,
01:17:03your daughter
01:17:04didn't seem too worried
01:17:05about killing my mom
01:17:07when she was dunking
01:17:08her head underwater.
01:17:12Mr. Brown,
01:17:13I'm begging you.
01:17:15That's the father
01:17:16of the woman
01:17:17you once loved.
01:17:20Please spare him.
01:17:22He's also the father
01:17:23of the woman
01:17:23who nearly murdered
01:17:24my mother.
01:17:25I guess that didn't
01:17:26occur to you.
01:17:28Fine.
01:17:28I admit it.
01:17:30I'll fess up
01:17:31to everything I did.
01:17:32I'll tell everyone.
01:17:35That's the first
01:17:36real thing
01:17:37you've said all day.
01:17:41All right then,
01:17:42start talking.
01:17:43I...
01:17:44I accused her
01:17:46of stealing.
01:17:47I dunked her head
01:17:49into a bucket
01:17:49of water.
01:17:53I nearly killed her.
01:18:05No, I'm not as cruel
01:18:06as you.
01:18:06Do it yourself.
01:18:16Roger,
01:18:17that's enough.
01:18:18Let them go.
01:18:23No, I'm not stopping
01:18:25until they suffer
01:18:26just as much
01:18:27as you did.
01:18:28Look,
01:18:29I know you want
01:18:30to protect me,
