Short filmTranscript
00:09Congratulations, Dr. Ivy Wright, a generational talent.
00:13At 18 years old, she earned her Ph.D. in mathematics from Harvard.
00:19Five years ago, I went by my birth name, Ivy Wright, a celebrated mathematician.
00:32Ivy, this is for you.
00:35So what's next in life of a genius mathematician?
00:39Thanks, Lucas.
00:41Well, I met someone this past summer. It was so freeing, so different.
00:48He saw me as a normal woman. I didn't have to speak about my brains or the family I come
00:53from.
00:53Are you sure? You just got your Ph.D. in mathematics from Harvard.
00:57You know, math has always been easy for me, but the life I've been living, it's quite empty.
01:03All this recognition feels like a burden.
01:08I want a family, Lucas. I am not sure I can ever have that if I am always living in
01:13the shadow of Ivy Wright.
01:14You're not in the shadow of Ivy Wright.
01:19You are Ivy Wright.
01:20I know, but I want to fall in love, get married, and live a simple happy life.
01:31Ironically, the life of academia I tried to leave behind has found me once more through my son.
01:37Ryder, at the age five, is ranked highest in International Math Olympiad.
01:43What's it like living with a generational genius?
01:46In everyone's eyes, I am just simple housewife.
01:49I just hope this pressure is easier on my son than it was on me.
01:53Ryder, who do you credit most for your incredible intellect?
02:00Ouch!
02:01Hey!
02:03The kid? He bit his mom? Did you see that?
02:09I want to thank my dad and my mentor, Ms. Prentin.
02:13I have inherited my dad's incredible genes, and I am grateful for the guidance I got from this scarlet print.
02:24Everyone hungry?
02:31Ms. Prentin, you can join us, too.
02:41Come on, Sophia, let's not be selfish.
02:44This is Ryder's Day.
02:45Let him sit with his father and tutor to enjoy the moment.
02:48You, too, can eat the leftovers after we are done.
03:00This is a special day for Ryder.
03:03They are just caught up in the excitement.
03:06More!
03:08You've worked up quite an appetite.
03:10Let his sister do it.
03:12Her brother is a genius and will change all of our fortunes.
03:16And it would be better for Mia to learn all this at a young age.
03:19Yes, Grandma.
03:23Ryder!
03:25Why are you yelling at Ryder?
03:27Mia is the Kluds who dropped the bowl.
03:30This mess isn't going to clean itself.
03:33Ryder, I'm your mother.
03:35Who taught you to behave like this?
03:37It's a joke.
03:39Lighten up.
03:40Why are you always such a buzzkill?
03:42Why are you answering the case?
03:46Why are you talking to us?
03:48What are you talking to us about?
03:49Why are you talking to us about a song?
03:51Because if you're saying to us,
03:54why do you say to us,
03:55why do you say to us,
03:56why do you say to us,
04:03why are you saying to us,
04:06why are we a clown?
04:22I had no idea you spoke French.
04:28I am your mother.
04:34Do you really think it's okay to talk?
04:37Why does this thing talk so much?
04:39Can't it shut up?
04:40Come on. Ryder achieved something incredible today.
04:44Let him have his fun. Don't be so fragile.
04:47She's so annoying.
04:48If you are so determined to spoil Ryder's day,
04:51then perhaps you should leave.
04:55Fine. We are leaving.
04:59Tristan, your wife is leaving you.
05:02Aren't you gonna stop her?
05:03No need. They have nowhere to go.
05:07They'll be back.
05:12I gave up everything for a family,
05:14and this is what they gave me in return.
05:16How could they do this to me?
05:18How could they do this to Mia?
05:21Tristan, how did things change so quickly?
05:24You are not the same man I married.
05:26Mom, it's my fault. I ruined Ryder's special day.
05:33No, sweetheart. You aren't to blame for any of this.
05:36You were right. Your brother was being mean,
05:39and I should have done something about it.
05:53She's lost a lot of blood. She needs surgery immediately.
05:57Her blood type is AB negative, and without a donor, I fear the surgery will be too risky.
06:03Mommy?
06:04Mommy? Am I going to die?
06:06No, sweetheart. Mommy's here. Nothing will happen to you.
06:16Ryder, you're here. Your sister needs you. You have the same AB negative blood.
06:21I am busy. Leave me alone.
06:25Ryder.
06:27Enough. These are more than games. These are to keep his mind sharp.
06:32Tristan, this is his sister's life.
06:35You overreact for everything. She got hurt because you were careless. Why not offer your own blood?
06:41My blood isn't a match.
06:44Why is everything always about you?
06:47If she doesn't have a lot of time, she might not make it.
06:56What did you say?
06:57She's lost a lot of blood, and she's fallen into a coma.
07:00We need to find a donor. Within an hour, it's our only hope.
07:03Tristan, Ryder listens to you.
07:06Please, you have to help.
07:09Alright, that's enough.
07:11After all, I am her father.
07:14Stop always trying to make me the bad guy.
07:16Your sister can't wait any longer. Go.
07:19Wait. Mia's in a coma because she's lost too much blood.
07:23Now you want me to lose mine too?
07:25What?
07:27That's not...
07:29I'm your mom.
07:31I don't know how much you have sacrificed your children.
07:35Hold on.
07:37My grandson is a genius.
07:39I won't allow any Tom, Dick, Harry to get his blood. It has his DNA in it.
07:44This isn't for anyone. This is for his sister.
07:47His blood has nothing to do with his intellect.
07:50So you're a doctor now?
07:51You know this for a fact.
07:53You coddle that poor girl and are always trying to have her piggyback off Ryder's accomplishments.
07:58But this? I can't forgive this.
08:01Please.
08:02She'll die without his blood.
08:27She'll die without his blood.
08:32nice. I wish you were my mom sometimes. Lucas? Do you want a break? I can sit with Mia. No,
08:53no.
08:54The doctors told me you're responsible for tracking down a blood donor for Mia.
08:57It turns out AB negative is super rare, but it's something Mia and I have in common.
09:05How can I ever repay you? Don't be like that. I am always happy to help. I heard what happened
09:12with Tristan and Ryder. How could they leave like that without even caring about Mia? You deserve
09:17more. Does he even care? Maybe he still cares deep down after all. Lucas, I need to take
09:31me a home after this. Of course. I'll drive you home.
09:49What are you doing?
09:56What were you doing? Aren't you ashamed? Do you want to sleep with him?
10:03Enough. Tristan, why did you call me home if you were only going to insult me with this?
10:14I called you because the dishes aren't going to clean by themselves. And tomorrow we are
10:19throwing Ryder a party. And we invited some prestigious guests, including Dr. Wright, who
10:26has apparently come out of her reclusive shell for this event. It's important that we all play nice
10:32for Ryder's benefit and future. If things go well, who knows? Perhaps Dr. Wright may even consider
10:40taking our son on as her student. Since you are so busy planning Ryder's party by sleeping with her,
10:45you might not have found the time to ask about your daughter.
10:50Mia, we were able to find a donor. She is waiting downstairs in the car to see her father.
10:56I knew she'd be all right. You're always overreacting.
11:00What makes you think Dr. Wright would work with Ryder? You don't even know Dr. Wright!
11:06Trust me, I know Dr. Wright.
11:09You do?
11:10Well, I know her type. Believe me, she'll want to work with Ryder. But I am not sure how'd she
11:15feel about you.
11:16On that, we may agree. I am not sure Dr. Wright would even know who I am at all.
11:21You were so different when we met. As soon as we had kids, you ignored me and they become your
11:27focus.
11:28And once I focused more on the kids, you became jealous and so bitchy!
11:32Kid.
11:34Kid?
11:35You only focused on Ryder. That too, after I proved he had the intellect to become a genius.
11:42You always acted like Mia was never born. Did you ever really love us?
11:51Fine.
11:53If that's how it is, then I want a divorce.
11:56A divorce?
11:58How will you live?
11:59Everything you have, everything you are, is because of me.
12:02There would be no Sophia Miller if it weren't for me.
12:05You're right. You are the reason Sophie Miller exists.
12:10So let's relieve you and the world from this burden.
12:13Take back the things you gave to give her life.
12:19This cheap cardigan. I know it's a knockoff.
12:23And these pearls?
12:25You bought your mother gold and gave your own wife plastic.
12:31Are you finished?
12:33No, but we are.
12:45I'm leaving you.
12:46We're done.
12:48My feelings for you made me blind to who you really are.
12:51They made me blind to who I really am.
12:55I'm leaving you.
13:04Ah, now I get it.
13:06You found yourself a new man, and all of a sudden you want to divorce me.
13:12Mind your words.
13:13God, Tristan.
13:15Not everyone is a cheater like you.
13:17We are done here.
13:19My lawyers will contact you for the proceedings.
13:27Look, Ryder, your mom is leaving you.
13:30Since when are you so concerned about me?
13:32Enough with this nonsense.
13:34Get lost already.
13:35Where are you going?
13:37Are you abandoning your family?
13:39Ryder, you are welcome to join us.
13:42What kind of life would that be?
13:45Do you really think you are everything you are without what I've shared with you?
13:49Miss Prynne has been more than a mother to me than you ever were.
13:52Who are you?
13:54You're nothing.
13:56Do you know about the things I sacrificed to have you?
14:00Who knows, in another life I may have been a Dr. Ivy Wright.
14:05More like Dr. Wrong than Dr. Right.
14:08So true.
14:09We are done here.
14:11I'll have the divorce papers drawn up tomorrow.
14:16Sophia's threats of divorce are going to completely steal focus from Ryder's party tomorrow.
14:20Perhaps there is another way to frame this.
14:23The tragic, devoted single father raising his genius child on his own.
14:28Maybe you'll become a bigger part of Ryder's story.
14:36Smart and sexy.
14:38Perhaps we don't need to play the single father a bit longer than we have to.
14:55Welcome home, Ms. Wright.
15:04Welcome home, Ms. Wright.
15:06Your parents are in a major project meeting with investors.
15:10I know they are excited to see you.
15:12They just need a moment.
15:14No project is more important than my daughter.
15:24I'm sorry.
15:27We're just glad you're back, Ivy.
15:30Or do you prefer Sophia?
15:32Either way, it's good to have you home.
15:34We've respectfully kept our distance as per your requests.
15:38But I am not sure we can let these recent transactions by your soon-to-be ex-husband go unnoticed.
15:44It looks like Lucas has stood by you whenever you had trouble.
15:48And Sophia, I will always be here for you.
15:52I am not even sure who I am anymore.
15:57Am I still the same Ivy Wright?
16:00Do I still have that within me?
16:02You have always been Ivy Wright.
16:04Even when others called you by another name.
16:07My children, my community.
16:10Nobody knows me as Ivy Wright.
16:13Then perhaps it's time we reintroduced Dr. Ivy Wright to the world.
16:28I've been someone else for too long.
16:31Welcome back, Ivy Wright.
16:36Thank you, honored guests, members of the press, and all of Ryder's friends and champions.
16:41I'm just a single father who worked hard to raise my child.
16:46Mr. Miller, you mentioned you're a single father.
16:49May we ask what happened to Ryder's mother?
16:52The invitation to today's event mentioned Ryder's parents.
16:55My son grew up without a mother's love.
16:58She was never really there for us.
17:00But let's not focus on her.
17:01Today is Ryder's Day and a day of celebration.
17:10And Ryder has always had strong maternal guidance from his mentor.
17:14And our dear friend, Scarlett Prinnin.
17:18Dear friend, hardly feels descriptive enough.
17:22As Scarlett has been more like a mother to Ryder.
17:24We've always considered her a member of the family.
17:34Ryder has completed his early education and will be able to officially graduate high school within three weeks.
17:42He will immediately engage in the process of his university entrance exams.
17:46Anything you wish to share with those watching on our live stream now?
17:51Does Ryder intend on signing endorsement deals?
17:54In good time, my friends.
17:56Ryder's intend to gain numerous offers.
17:58He is on pace to enter university as the youngest student since Dr. Ivy Wright.
18:03How does that make you feel?
18:05Yes, Dr. Wright earned her Harvard PhD at 18.
18:08An IQ over 230.
18:09She holds three Guinness Book of World Records.
18:12A living legend.
18:14Assuming she's still alive.
18:16Nobody has heard from her in years.
18:17It's like she disappeared off the face of the earth.
18:19Everyone, please calm down.
18:21As a surprise, we've been in contact with some of Dr. Wright's associates.
18:24And she is going to be making a surprise appearance today at Ryder's event.
18:33I've just received a word she'll be here shortly to congratulate my son.
18:38Ryder is excited to meet this incredible woman.
18:42Any discussions on Dr. Wright potentially mentoring the young boy?
18:50Let's not get ahead of ourselves.
18:52Ryder and Dr. Wright haven't even met yet.
18:54And I am sure their entelics will be too much for us to comprehend.
18:58In terms of what connection they will make.
19:01Dr. Wright?
19:11Sophia?
19:19What are you doing here?
19:22It's my son's big day.
19:24Did you think I'd miss it?
19:25This is embarrassing.
19:27Get out now.
19:28Before anyone realizes who you really are.
19:31Why are you here?
19:33I'm your mother.
19:34Dad says you're getting divorced.
19:36And I'll have a new mother.
19:38I thought Dr. Ivy Wright was a special guest today.
19:42You need to leave before Dr. Ivy Wright does arrive.
19:45I am here already, my dear.
19:47Are you delusional?
19:49You're out of your freaking mind.
19:52Stop embarrassing yourself.
19:54I've already told everyone, Ryder doesn't have a mother.
19:57Doesn't have a mother?
19:58What exactly did you tell everyone?
20:01What have you ever given me?
20:03Dad and Miss Prynne have been my everything.
20:06Do you really believe that?
20:07You are the worst mother of the world.
20:10The only stain in my life.
20:12I'm ashamed of you.
20:14The respect is not that you are my mother.
20:17I am your mother.
20:18It's not that you are my mother.
20:19It's not that you are my mother because it's your mother.
20:21Congrats on your Duo Taco app purchase.
20:24Anyone can learn basic French now.
20:27Get out now!
20:30Look!
20:31Professor Seton, Myers, and Durden has arrived to meet Ryder.
20:35See?
20:35These three real academic giants came all for Ryder.
20:40Leave now
20:41before you are exposed
20:43for who you really are.
20:52Sophia,
20:53the three academic giants
20:55all came for Ryder
20:56as a direct result of my invitation.
20:59Really?
21:00They all came
21:01because of
21:02you?
21:03Quiet woman!
21:05The men are talking business here.
21:07Unless you're going to start trick-or-treating,
21:09I suggest you get out of that ridiculous costume
21:11and disappear before you ruin Ryder's event.
21:15You're the one parading around as a reputable academic
21:18when we can all see through your facade and know
21:22you're just an opportunistic parasite
21:25looking to piggyback off of a child.
21:27Who do you think you are?
21:28I finally know exactly who I am.
21:31Who the hell are you?
21:32You're dressed up as someone else
21:34on the day of your son's big event.
21:36Do you think those professors would spare you a glance?
21:38You know what?
21:39You're right.
21:40This is Ryder's big day
21:41and the important guests you've invited
21:43are clearly here out of respect for you.
21:45Please don't let me keep you.
21:48Hello, professors.
21:50Welcome to my son's party.
21:51Is it really you?
21:53We heard you had disappeared without a trace.
21:58We've been worried.
21:59We are so incredibly honored
22:01to be here with you.
22:08You are all too kind.
22:10I've missed you.
22:12The concerto you composed as a child
22:14is still the core focus of my advanced teachings.
22:16It's beautiful beyond words.
22:18That is far too generous.
22:19Your article on fractals
22:21and their implications on modern theories
22:23and quantum physics
22:24helped me discover a theory
22:25that has created technological advancements
22:27I never thought I'd see in my lifetime.
22:30Your early work offered me
22:31the essential tools I needed for my article.
22:33I continue to use your theories
22:35on implementing Esperanto
22:37as a universal language for our space program
22:39as the most logical form of communication
22:41should we ever make first contact.
22:43Wouldn't that be a lovely thing?
22:46Dad,
22:47what on earth could they be talking about with mom?
22:51What is this madness?
22:54How is she fooling
22:55three of the leading minds of our time?
22:57She is cunning.
22:58She has some dirt on all of you, right?
23:05Everything I am in the academic world
23:07is thanks to her research.
23:08She is the epitome of authenticity.
23:10If you question Dr. Wright,
23:12you question all of us.
23:15Apologize.
23:16Apologize?
23:17To whom?
23:18The woman you are chatting with
23:20is a fraud.
23:22I've known her for years
23:23and she is not worthy of your praise or time.
23:25I've lived with you all these years.
23:27I know you better than anyone.
23:29Why is everyone believing this lie?
23:31After years together,
23:32you never really knew me, did you?
23:34I can't believe I was so blind.
23:36You never took the time to know me.
23:38Stop this trade.
23:40Apologize now!
23:41You've insulted these intellectual elites
23:43and our family with your deceptions.
23:45What gives you the right?
23:48No.
23:50The audacity to try and discredit Dr. Wright.
23:54Wait, what?
23:55Are you saying my mother is...
23:57Dr. Ivy Wright?
23:59This is insane.
24:01How is she Dr. Wright?
24:03You've met her.
24:04She's not smart.
24:05If she really is Dr. Wright,
24:08Ryder's opportunities will skyrocket.
24:11Make use of it.
24:13You're right.
24:15Clever.
24:16All right, everyone.
24:18The secret is out.
24:20Everyone, look over here.
24:22The real reason behind this special event,
24:24and yes,
24:25our playful games of misdirection,
24:27are over.
24:28It's time the world knew.
24:30Ryder is the son of the academic wonder child herself.
24:34The mother of my children.
24:36Dr. Ivy Wright.
24:42Wow.
24:43You have children?
24:44Please let us know what we can do
24:46to ensure he has all of the opportunities
24:48in the world to achieve his potential.
24:50If you think my son is smart,
24:52you should meet his sister.
24:54This is my party.
24:56Why are you making this about you?
24:58Miss Prynne is smart and successful.
25:00She's a thousand times better than you.
25:02So what if you have a PhD?
25:04What did you ever do with it?
25:06What a waste.
25:08You really don't know your place.
25:10You have no idea who she is, do you?
25:12I know exactly who she is.
25:14She's been our cook,
25:15and has washed our laundry,
25:16and kept our home clean.
25:18She's used her PhD to become
25:20the world's best nanny.
25:22Is that who I am to you?
25:24Look.
25:25The director of MIT, Dr. Andrew Rowley, is here.
25:29This day is supposed to be about Ryder.
25:32Perhaps Director Rowley can help us all get back
25:34to where our focus should be?
25:36Leave this to me.
25:40He is the director of MIT, Dr. Andrew Rowley.
25:44Do you know how big of a deal it is
25:45for us to have him here?
25:47He must have come to scout Ryder
25:48for the National Youth Academic Program.
25:50If Ryder is selected for that program,
25:52then he is set for life.
25:54I'll make sure he is impressed by Ryder.
25:58Hello.
25:59You are Dr. Andrew Rowley?
26:02Yes.
26:02With your busy schedule,
26:04we weren't sure if you could make it here.
26:06Are you saying you were hoping I would...
26:09not come?
26:11No, no, no.
26:12That's not what I meant.
26:13Look, everyone here is happier,
26:15and everything shines brighter with your presence.
26:18Thank you for coming, Director.
26:26You must be thirsty after your journey here.
26:29There's champagne over there.
26:31May I pour you a glass?
26:32Get out of my way.
26:33Please go bother someone else.
26:36Dr. Wright, it is so great to see you.
26:38Thanks to you,
26:39the National Youth Academics Program at MIT
26:41has produced many bona fide geniuses.
26:43I'm...
26:44I'm sorry.
26:45Do you two know each other?
26:46They must have met at a parent meeting.
26:49Please, Dr. Rowley.
26:51It is kind of you to assume
26:52the child's mother had something to do
26:54with the incredible accomplishments
26:55Ryder has achieved at such an early age,
26:57but I assure you...
26:59Why are you still here?
27:04I mean no disrespect,
27:06Director Rowley,
27:09but you are only here because we invited you.
27:12How dare you?
27:13I am only here because of Dr. Wright.
27:16Without her,
27:17there wouldn't even be
27:18a National Youth Academics Program at MIT.
27:21This was created...
27:24for her?
27:26For her?
27:28By her!
27:30Somebody please assure me
27:32this woman
27:33is not connected
27:35to this young man's development.
27:37Director Rowley,
27:38Ryder was nurtured at every step by me.
27:41We are all here today
27:42because of the work he and I did together.
27:44You think you offered more to this day
27:46than the boy's own mother?
27:49A woman with an academic reputation
27:51that has the sharpest minds
27:53in the country gathered
27:54to meet her child?
27:55You have it all wrong.
27:57She has spent all of her time
27:59trying to coddle
28:00and soft the boy.
28:02I am the one who has honed in
28:04on his intellectual side.
28:05That woman may be
28:06the world's greatest con artist,
28:08but I can assure you
28:08she isn't an intellectual.
28:10She's a moron.
28:12Why do sounds keep exploding
28:14from your mouth
28:14when you never offer
28:16anything valuable
28:17to a conversation?
28:19And like that,
28:20Scarlet is speechless.
28:23I didn't think it was possible.
28:25You have already proven yourself
28:27to be a master of deception.
28:29Is this how you found favor
28:30with the director?
28:33Did you worm your way
28:35into his bed?
28:38Is that the only play
28:40in your playbook?
28:43Apologize.
28:45Now.
28:46She looks like
28:47she's in good hands.
28:49Weird to see a man
28:50hold his child teacher
28:52closer and with more affection
28:53than he's ever held
28:55his own wife.
28:56I must say that closeness
28:57feels a scooch more intimate
28:59than parent-teacher.
29:00Are they having an affair?
29:03Nonsense.
29:04I'm Ryder's teacher.
29:06True.
29:07I care for the Miller family
29:08like they are my own.
29:09But these accusations
29:10are just rumors.
29:12Sure.
29:12We'll all believe you
29:14more than what we just saw
29:15with our own eyes.
29:16Didn't you like
29:17messing around with him?
29:18Well,
29:19he's all yours now.
29:22Here.
29:27You want to embarrass me
29:28in front of everyone?
29:30You embarrass yourself.
29:32You say,
29:33I've been living a lie?
29:34Look in the mirror,
29:35you hypocrite.
29:36Stop pretending
29:37she's your girl
29:38and just go public
29:39with your relationship.
29:41Sure.
29:42It's less scandalous,
29:43but she's probably
29:44still fun all the same,
29:45no?
29:45I am Ryder's teacher.
29:47He is my focus.
29:48Your problems
29:49with keeping your husband happy
29:51are your problems alone.
29:52Why don't you let me
29:54focus on Ryder?
29:56And you can try
29:57focusing on your husband
29:58for five minutes
29:59in this life.
30:00Ryder is my son.
30:03You don't need
30:04to worry about him.
30:05Do you think he'd come
30:06to you or me
30:06if we both held out
30:08our hand right now?
30:09It's normal for a boy
30:10to want to impress
30:11his father.
30:13Tristan has taken
30:14advantage of that
30:15for his own selfish needs.
30:17But I can help Ryder
30:18get back on the right path.
30:21Ryder,
30:22would you like
30:23to live with me?
30:25With Mia?
30:26I only want
30:26the best for you.
30:27You are my son.
30:31I hate being your son.
30:33I don't want
30:34to live with you.
30:35I want Miss Pryn
30:36to be my mother.
30:37Not you.
30:39You are a liar
30:40and poor and...
30:41Ryder,
30:42I'm not poor.
30:43I come from
30:43a very wealthy family.
30:45I just didn't want
30:46you to have to face
30:47the pressures I faced
30:47with that name.
30:48If you are rich,
30:49then I hate you
30:50for keeping this from me
30:51and living a lie.
30:52If you are poor,
30:52you are lying to me now.
30:54Either way,
30:55your wish I came
30:56from anyone else
30:56but you.
30:57If you did love me,
30:59you'd die and disappear
31:00so I could move on
31:01to a better life.
31:02Did you hear that?
31:04Ivy,
31:05if you truly love Ryder,
31:07then leave him
31:07the hell alone.
31:08I hate you!
31:10I hate you!
31:12My own son
31:15sees me as his enemy.
31:23Fine, then.
31:25Ryder,
31:25as per your wishes,
31:26I will no longer
31:27consider you my son.
31:29Oh, no.
31:30How will Ryder
31:31ever survive without you?
31:33Once upon a time,
31:34these people may
31:35have looked at your
31:36intellect as something
31:37to be admired.
31:39But I assure you,
31:40everyone will forget
31:41who you are
31:41when they see
31:42what I am capable of.
31:43You may have my brain
31:45for mathematics,
31:46languages,
31:46and music.
31:48But you are definitely
31:49your father's son
31:50when it comes to
31:50empty bluster
31:51and spiteful verbal diarrhea.
31:54My apologies, Andrew.
31:56I fear we've wasted
31:57your time.
31:58While Ryder has shown
31:59great promise
32:00in certain areas,
32:01I fear he's a product
32:02of both his mother
32:03and father.
32:04And he doesn't have
32:05the social skills
32:06or humanity
32:07worthy of this program.
32:08I believe it would be
32:10best for the program
32:11to choose another prodigy.
32:12As you wish.
32:14What?
32:15The actual pho?
32:16Director Rowley,
32:18you must be mistaken.
32:20Sophia,
32:21Ivy,
32:21I don't know
32:22what to call her anymore,
32:23is deceptive
32:24and has been misleading
32:25people all of her life.
32:27You claim to value
32:28academia above all else.
32:31And yet you never realized
32:32you were married
32:32to the smartest woman
32:33of our time?
32:36And that she is also
32:37the only child
32:38of Isaac and Diana Wright?
32:39Are you talking
32:40about Wright Industries?
32:43Isaac and Diana Wright?
32:46Who do you think
32:47sponsors our program?
32:49You are hosting
32:50an event for the smartest
32:52and wealthiest people
32:53in the nation
32:53and you don't even know
32:55who any of them are?
32:57Miss Prennan,
32:58you have accused me
32:59numerous times
33:00of living a life
33:01of lies.
33:02And yet,
33:03you're not actually
33:05a Prenny,
33:05are you?
33:06Is this true?
33:11So you knew
33:13I wasn't who
33:14I was all along?
33:15I'm literally
33:16one of the smartest
33:17people in the world.
33:18Wasn't hard
33:19to figure it out.
33:21Sign the divorce papers.
33:23Let's end this.
33:25I'll need time,
33:26of course,
33:27to review these
33:28and ensure
33:28the proper elements
33:29are all in order.
33:31Property and asset division,
33:33debts and liabilities,
33:35spousal support.
33:36What are you saying?
33:38You're rich, right?
33:39I forgive you
33:40for everything.
33:41We can work through this.
33:43For the children.
33:45You really had
33:46everyone fooled.
33:47The secret to
33:48a great relationship
33:49is maintaining curiosity
33:51and I'll be damned
33:52if I am not curious
33:53as to where
33:54this is all going.
33:55I agree.
33:56I am curious too.
33:58What kind of a mentor
33:59to your son would I be
34:01if I didn't help
34:02his parents find a way
34:03to stay together?
34:04What are you doing?
34:05This isn't right.
34:07You said you wanted
34:08this too.
34:09If you insist,
34:11I guess we'll just have
34:12to split your assets
34:13in half.
34:14You're not getting
34:15a single cent
34:16from my family.
34:17I don't make the laws.
34:20I just follow them.
34:21You cheated.
34:23Legally,
34:23you leave with nothing.
34:25Cheated?
34:26I've always been
34:27upfront and honest.
34:28You're the one
34:29with the secret family
34:30and different names.
34:32Do you really want
34:33to play this out in court?
34:34You're lucky
34:35I'm only asking
34:35for half.
34:37Fine.
34:39You want evidence?
34:45Are you sure
34:46you want to do this?
34:51this medical report
34:53proves that Scarlet
34:54is pregnant.
34:55Five weeks,
34:55six days.
34:56You two are about
34:57to have a child
34:58and you're still
34:59pretending to be strangers.
35:03fake news.
35:05This is clearly AI.
35:07That doesn't even
35:08look like me.
35:09Feels pretty real to me.
35:11You've always wanted
35:12to be famous, Scarlet.
35:14How do you like it now?
35:16Ugh.
35:17Can't believe he did it
35:18with his son's mentor.
35:20Sign the divorce papers.
35:22Now.
35:25You are despicable.
35:27I won't sign this.
35:29Oh.
35:30So you are willing
35:32to let Scarlet's baby
35:33grow up as a bastard?
35:36Tristan,
35:37maybe we should sign.
35:39Ryder is our future.
35:41We have a...
35:43a lot to think about here.
35:45Ryder's mind
35:46is worth more
35:47than her inheritance.
35:48She's right.
35:49I can't keep
35:50begging her like this.
35:52Ryder can make
35:52twice more money
35:53than what her family has.
35:56We'll see.
36:01I didn't know
36:02Sophia could be
36:02so ruthless.
36:04How did she even
36:05find out about you
36:05embezzling money
36:06from your company?
36:07I don't know.
36:09I had to give
36:10my lawyer
36:11everything I owned
36:12to just stay
36:13out of jail.
36:14What about Ryder now?
36:16Who will take
36:17care of him?
36:18Where's your mother?
36:19She left
36:20the moment
36:21we moved to this house.
36:23Ryder's violin
36:24is worth
36:24at least $300,000.
36:26We can buy him
36:27a new one
36:28once we're back
36:28on our feet.
36:30Sell it.
36:31Sell it yourself.
36:39Do you like
36:40this piano, Mia?
36:41I love it, Mom.
36:43But it's too costly.
36:46I want to be
36:46the world's best pianist.
36:48I won't let you down.
36:49But I don't need
36:50fancy things.
36:53Ryder,
36:53do you want to play
36:54your latest
36:55consorto
36:55for your sister?
36:56I think she may
36:57prefer songs
36:58played on a kazoo.
36:59I'd hate to
37:00overstimulate her
37:01fragile body
37:03risk upsetting the
37:04delicate blood type of hers
37:06with anything
37:07too sophisticated.
37:09That's the violin
37:10I bought for Ryder.
37:11It was imported from Germany
37:13and is considered
37:13one of the finest
37:14violins ever made.
37:19Are you crazy?
37:21Do you even know
37:22how much it costs?
37:23It doesn't matter.
37:25You better compensate
37:26me for this
37:27or I'll call
37:28the police.
37:29Did you forget
37:29that I bought it?
37:30I have the receipt
37:31to prove it.
37:32What about you?
37:33You can see it
37:34clearly now,
37:35don't you?
37:36Without me,
37:37you can't even survive.
37:48Your new boyfriend
37:49is quite the violent man.
37:50I'd be careful
37:50if I were you.
37:51Remember,
37:52you are setting an example
37:53for that young daughter
37:54of yours.
37:56Thank you, Lucas.
37:59Mr. Lucas,
38:01you are a smart man.
38:02May I ask you a question?
38:04Of course, Mia.
38:05What is it?
38:05My brother is smart.
38:07Very smart.
38:07Do you think
38:08if I work hard
38:09I could be that smart too?
38:10You are already
38:11a smart girl, darling.
38:13In many ways,
38:14smarter than your brother already.
38:15But more importantly
38:17than being a smart girl,
38:18I want you to be
38:18a happy girl.
38:19Mia, you're amazing.
38:21I have every confidence
38:22your mother will give you
38:22everything you need
38:23to be happy in this life.
38:25Uh-huh.
38:28I am not sure
38:29this is a good idea.
38:30Do you have a better idea?
38:32Ryder is her son.
38:36Why are you sneaking
38:37around in front of my house?
38:39Your son can't afford
38:40his school and
38:40he needs money
38:41so he can continue
38:42on his path.
38:42So that's why
38:43you're here?
38:44You need me?
38:46Are you that desperate?
38:48You must be.
38:50Else, why would you
38:51come here begging?
38:52Come on.
38:52It's for your kid.
38:54I am pretty sure
38:55Ryder made it clear
38:55he'd prefer it
38:56if Scarlet was his mother.
38:58Scarlet,
38:59can you pre-as-lundest
39:00your money
39:00for their schooling?
39:02Heartless, bitch.
39:04Once Ryder completes
39:05his dissertation,
39:06he'll have offers
39:07from all the biggest
39:07companies in the world.
39:09We don't need you
39:10or your money.
39:11Nothing would bring
39:12me greater joy
39:12and to see my children
39:13happy and successful.
39:15Let's go.
39:28Mom, look.
39:29Straight A's again.
39:30She's remarkable.
39:31She's almost finished
39:32the high school curriculum.
39:34This would be
39:34three full weeks earlier
39:35than her brother did it.
39:37Mia, you are doing
39:37so well.
39:38Would you want to take
39:39the university entrance exams
39:41and consider some
39:41bigger paths?
39:42Yes.
39:43I want to be like Mommy.
39:45I want to make her
39:46proud.
39:47You already do,
39:48my darling,
39:48every day.
39:49How shall we celebrate
39:50your straight A's today?
39:54I want both of you
39:55to kiss me at the same time
39:56and maybe some ice cream.
40:10I knew it.
40:12I knew you both
40:13liked each other.
40:14You little rascal.
40:18Hey, Mia, be careful.
40:20I adore our little girl.
40:22What did you say?
40:23Ah, nothing.
40:24Just saying what a
40:25great kid she is.
40:26I overheard you talking
40:27to your father on the
40:28phone earlier.
40:28Is everything okay?
40:30He is getting old.
40:31He wants me to take
40:32over the company.
40:33I am just not sure
40:34where to start.
40:34I've been focused on my
40:35family and children
40:36for so long.
40:37This phone contains
40:37the numbers of
40:38venture capitalists,
40:39strategists.
40:40They will all be more
40:40than happy to guide you.
40:42Lucas, thank you.
40:44Your happiness will
40:45always be what is
40:46most important to me.
40:47Why have I rejected
40:48him all of these years?
40:50He's always been the one
40:51person who truly cared
40:52about me.
40:53After Mia goes to bed,
40:54would you walk with me
40:55tonight?
40:56I'd love to get some
40:57fresh air and see the
40:58stars.
40:58I'd like that too.
41:05These aren't so bad,
41:06are they?
41:07Pretty cheap and fresh.
41:10Look, is that Ivy?
41:12Let's go check it out.
41:15Well, well.
41:17Out all alone celebrating
41:18yourself with candles and
41:19flowers?
41:19No, you're not batshit
41:21crazy at all.
41:22I knew it.
41:23You love yourself so
41:24much you've decided to
41:25make it official and
41:26confess you are deeply
41:27in love with you and
41:28only you.
41:31Ivy.
41:38I have found a way to
41:39love myself again.
41:40And in doing so, I've
41:41finally opened up to
41:42having others love me for
41:43who I really am.
41:48You've got to be careful
41:49around men looking for
41:50sloppy seconds.
41:50And women who do the
41:52same?
41:53You bitch!
41:54The ink isn't even dry on
41:56our divorce papers and
41:57you're already seeing
41:57someone else?
41:58You are such an
41:59ignorant hypocrite.
42:03Ivy.
42:04I know these Ecuadorian
42:06roses are your favorite.
42:07I had them shipped in
42:08from Paris.
42:09That is so thoughtful.
42:10I do like occasionally
42:12like to indulge in the
42:13finer things in life.
42:17Do you really think
42:18this whatever he is
42:19supposed to be can
42:20make you happy?
42:21I guess he'll have an
42:22easier time now that I've
42:23loosened you up for him.
42:27Nobody speaks to her
42:28like that.
42:29Ow!
42:29See, I told you he was
42:30violent!
42:32Stop it!
42:33Stop fighting!
42:41Ah!
42:42I'm bleeding!
42:44I'm bleeding!
42:46I'm bleeding!
42:59How is she?
43:00She's going to be okay.
43:02But I'm very sorry
43:03we couldn't save the baby.
43:12You killed our child!
43:24Scarlet, I'm heartbroken too.
43:26But it was an accident.
43:28It doesn't matter if you did
43:29it on purpose or not.
43:31It's all your fault!
43:35Scarlet, the one who should
43:35really be blamed is Ivy.
43:37If she hadn't pushed me,
43:38would things have turned
43:38physical?
43:39Stop blaming her for
43:40everything.
43:41This is 100% on you.
43:42You are always running
43:43from responsibility.
43:46How did I not see you
43:47were a terrible father?
43:48How you've already
43:49abandoned your daughter
43:49and now our baby?
43:51The baby didn't even
43:51have a name.
43:52You weren't even in
43:53your second trimester.
43:54I am sad too,
43:55but we can make another one.
43:56And the child we need
43:57to focus on most
43:58is still Ryder.
44:02I swear you love that child
44:03more than you've loved
44:04any woman.
44:07I apologize if I've ever
44:09given anyone the impression
44:10otherwise.
44:11Ryder is your child
44:12with Ivy.
44:13I wanted one that
44:13was our own.
44:15So you've never considered
44:16Ryder your son at all?
44:19I have always loved
44:20that child like my own.
44:22But no matter what you do,
44:24he'll always be a reminder
44:25of her.
44:33Why do I feel like
44:34you didn't have running
44:35into Tristan and Scarlet
44:36on your bingo card
44:37when you were planning
44:37this night?
44:40I feel like you've always
44:41been there for me
44:41when I need you most.
44:43Ivy,
44:45I want to always be there
44:46for you when you need me
44:47most.
44:48You really went all out
44:49with the flowers tonight.
44:51Ivy,
44:53I want us to be together.
44:57I have two children
44:58with a knight-ner
44:59of a father.
45:00I've been dismissive
45:01of my potential.
45:02I think you've always
45:03been exactly who you
45:04needed to be at the time.
45:05Nothing about what I've
45:07done,
45:07the choices I've made,
45:09the life I've created
45:10should appeal to you.
45:11Ivy,
45:12every ounce of your
45:13essence appeals to me.
45:15That wouldn't be fair to you.
45:16Hiding my feelings
45:17and not asserting myself
45:18earlier is what has been
45:19unfair to me.
45:20And you.
45:21Lucas,
45:22I've been so focused
45:23on being a mother,
45:24being a wife.
45:25I've stopped focusing
45:26on what it also means
45:27to be me.
45:28I'm not sure I am ready
45:29to start a new relationship.
45:30I wouldn't want to
45:31lose myself again.
45:31I wouldn't ever want
45:32any version of you
45:33that wasn't the most
45:34truthful and self-loving
45:36version of yourself.
45:37I'm not worthy
45:38of you right now.
45:39Right now,
45:40I'm in a place
45:40where I've needed you
45:41to save me countless times.
45:43I like being there for you.
45:45And for this to ever work,
45:46I need to know
45:47I can be there for you
45:48and my children too.
45:49Ivy,
45:51I've waited for this
45:51for a long time.
45:52And I'd spend the rest
45:53of my days waiting
45:54if that's what it takes.
45:55I want us to be together,
45:56but when you're ready,
45:57and never sooner
45:58nor a minute later.
46:03You lost our house.
46:05You lost our baby.
46:06And now we can't even
46:07find the remote control.
46:08Kristen,
46:09are you here just
46:09to make my life
46:10even harder?
46:11I've given up
46:11everything for you.
46:13In fact,
46:13your pregnancy
46:13fast-tracked my divorce
46:15to Ivy.
46:15You were going to
46:15leave her anyway.
46:18Why do you keep
46:18bringing her up?
46:19Do you want her back?
46:20Is that it?
46:22No!
46:23No!
46:23No!
46:26Shut up,
46:27both of you.
46:28Stop fighting.
46:30All right.
46:32We'll stop fighting.
46:33As you can see,
46:34we are all willing
46:34to invest everything
46:35we have in you,
46:36my son.
46:37You are our future.
46:38You are the future
46:39for all of us.
46:42Ryder, sweetheart,
46:43we are all counting on you.
46:44This upcoming
46:45American Scholarship Program
46:46is a chance to show
46:47that ungrateful mother of yours
46:48how great you truly are.
46:50Do well there,
46:51and we will live a life
46:51that none of us
46:52have even imagined.
46:59Today is the day
47:00we announce the results
47:02of the qualifying tests
47:03for the American
47:04Scholarship Program.
47:07Welcome, everyone.
47:12If you will turn
47:13your attention
47:14to the main aisle,
47:15you will see
47:15one of this year's
47:16top participants,
47:17Ryder Miller.
47:18He is always impressive,
47:19and we all predict
47:20him to be at the top
47:21when the results are announced.
47:24I could get used to this.
47:28This is just the beginning.
47:30Once Ryder's results
47:31are announced,
47:32this will be our daily life.
47:34Today, we are also honored
47:36to welcome
47:36a very special guest.
47:38She is the founder
47:39of this amazing program
47:40and one of the sharpest minds
47:42of our time,
47:43Dr. Ivy Wright.
47:57An interesting development
47:59in recent weeks
48:00is that Dr. Wright
48:01has both of her children,
48:03her son Ryder
48:04and her daughter Mia,
48:05compete in the exams
48:06one week ago.
48:08Mia?
48:10Really?
48:11This is why
48:12DEI programs
48:13don't work.
48:14What a joke.
48:15Is she going to fill out
48:16her forms in crayon?
48:18Unbelievable.
48:20Is this some
48:21make-a-wish thing?
48:23Everyone is here
48:24for Ryder.
48:26Why do you insist
48:27on embarrassing yourself
48:29and our children?
48:30Wrong.
48:32Everyone is here
48:33to see the new candidates
48:34who are selected
48:35in the American scholarship program.
48:39I just hope your Ryder
48:40can keep up
48:40with all this pressure.
48:42I think Ryder
48:43is going to be fine.
48:45Once the results
48:46confirm Ryder
48:47as the top candidate,
48:49do not try
48:50to steal his spotlight
48:51with all of the
48:52I'm his mommy nonsense.
48:54This is his day,
48:55not yours.
48:56If your intellect
48:57matched your overconfidence,
48:58you might actually
48:59be dangerous.
49:01I love how you
49:02never let facts
49:02or reality
49:03get in the way
49:04of your opinions.
49:05It's actually
49:06quite fascinating.
49:07Ladies and gentlemen,
49:08if everyone could
49:09please take their seats,
49:10we will shortly
49:11be announcing
49:12the results
49:13of this year's competition.
49:15Should Ryder sit
49:16with us
49:16or up there
49:17with you?
49:19What makes more sense
49:21so it is easiest
49:21for him to make
49:22his speech?
49:27The results
49:28for Ryder Miller
49:35in the math event,
49:38five points.
49:41In the literature event,
49:42five points,
49:44and five points
49:45in the languages event.
49:50Together with
49:51the remaining events,
49:52Ryder has scored
49:53a total of 20 points.
49:55Ryder would unfortunately
49:56be disqualified
49:57from the program.
49:59That's impossible!
50:01You must have
50:02the wrong name
50:03on the forms.
50:05Ryder is a child prodigy!
50:07Ouch!
50:09Feels a little low.
50:11Even for Ryder.
50:12You've been a distraction
50:13and likely the reason
50:14he couldn't focus.
50:15And now,
50:16the results for Mia Miller,
50:17she has scored
50:17150 points
50:18in the max event.
50:19A perfect score!
50:21150 points in literature
50:23and 150 points
50:24in languages.
50:29That is a record
50:30which will never
50:31be broken.
50:31I'm not sure
50:32her own mother
50:33would have scored
50:33that high.
50:37Dr. Wright!
50:38Mia's results
50:39were off the charts.
50:41Mr. Miller,
50:42you must be so proud
50:43of your daughter.
50:45Sure, Ryder didn't fare
50:47as well as anyone thought,
50:48but...
50:49I can't let this
50:51end like this.
50:53You...
50:54You have all
50:56been kept
50:56in the dark!
50:58I can't believe it.
50:59There have been things
51:00clearly kept from you!
51:05Mr. Miller,
51:06what exactly is it
51:07that you are trying
51:08to say?
51:08Is there a reason
51:09why Ryder scored
51:10so low?
51:11Ryder Miller,
51:12the biological son
51:13of Dr. Ivy Wright,
51:14was so traumatized
51:15by his mother's
51:16infidelities and abandonment,
51:17he was competing
51:18in these events
51:19under incredible duress.
51:21She has taunted him
51:22in recent weeks,
51:23parading around
51:24with her scandalous boyfriend
51:26and routinely
51:27abandoning him.
51:28No,
51:29you left me.
51:31You cheated on me.
51:32I did nothing wrong.
51:34You never have taken
51:36any accountability
51:36for anything,
51:37have you?
51:39You even pretended
51:40to be someone else.
51:42To trick me
51:43into marrying you?
51:44My son
51:46deserves another chance.
51:49She took everything
51:50from us.
51:52Ryder and I
51:53were left with nothing.
51:55He's just a child.
51:57What kind of kid
51:58could survive
51:58that level of humiliation?
52:00These are all lies!
52:01Is that right?
52:04Sophia?
52:05Or is it Ivy?
52:07Are you even able
52:08to keep it straight?
52:09You have convinced Ryder
52:11I am his enemy
52:12for years now.
52:14You give me
52:15too much credit.
52:17Is there any child
52:19who doesn't want
52:19his mother?
52:20Tristan Miller.
52:22I thought I warned you
52:23about this already.
52:27Right on schedule.
52:29This is the man
52:30who has destroyed
52:31our family
52:32and helped Ryder's
52:33mother to crush
52:34his future.
52:34And what is your
52:35connection to the
52:36Miller family?
52:37How do you know
52:38Dr. Wright?
52:39Are you really
52:40her lover?
52:41Yes.
52:42But this is all
52:43recent.
52:44After Ivy
52:45divorced her husband
52:46after we found him
52:47cheating on her
52:48with Miss Scarlet
52:48here.
52:50Liar!
52:51We've all seen
52:52the video Tristan.
52:54Your lies end today.
52:56You did everything
52:57in your power
52:58to make me leave.
52:59And every time
53:00I tried to protect
53:01our children
53:01from our lies
53:02you turned them
53:03against me.
53:04You made
53:05my own child.
53:07My son
53:08wished he could
53:09be raised
53:09by another woman.
53:13Ryder?
53:14How do you feel
53:15about all of this?
53:16Do you feel
53:17your mother
53:18abandoned you?
53:19I don't like
53:20that woman.
53:21I prefer
53:22Miss Prinnan.
53:23She's been more
53:24of a mother to me
53:25than anyone else
53:26in this world.
53:27She's always been
53:28more like a mother
53:28than a tutor to me.
53:30When my father
53:30would take me
53:31to academic camps
53:32she'd find a way
53:33to be there
53:34even when my own
53:35mother wasn't there.
53:36She would even
53:37save my family
53:38money on these trips
53:40by sleeping in the
53:41same bed as my father
53:42so we didn't need
53:43a second room.
53:45The boy is confused.
53:47I did not sleep.
53:48in the same bed
53:49as his father.
53:51Why would you
53:52say that?
53:53My son
53:53is a genius
53:54but his road
53:56has not been easy.
53:57He was raised
53:58by a mother
53:58who spins webs
53:59of lies
54:00and can't always
54:00tell fact
54:01from fiction.
54:02As you can see
54:04her deceptive ways
54:05continue to haunt
54:07the poor boy.
54:08She's jealous
54:09of her son.
54:10She tried to hide
54:11who she was
54:12and now she's trying
54:13to hide who he can be.
54:14This is a pattern.
54:16Nobody is buying
54:17any of this
54:17Tristan.
54:18Good.
54:19Because I am not
54:20selling anything.
54:21I am just stating facts.
54:23In some parts
54:23of this world
54:24things like the truth
54:25and honesty
54:26still mean something.
54:27I couldn't agree more.
54:33Isn't that Mr. Baker?
54:35Ryder's sponsor?
54:36Didn't he fund
54:37the kids' training
54:38and examination charges?
54:39I am glad you are here
54:40Mr. Baker.
54:41Are you sure?
54:43There have been
54:43some concerns raised
54:44about ethics
54:45and trust
54:46of this program, sir.
54:47Really?
54:48You are the one
54:49to talk about ethics?
54:52I didn't catch it
54:53at first.
54:54In fact,
54:55I didn't catch it
54:55at all.
54:56It was Professors
54:57Seton, Myers
54:58and Durden
54:59who brought it
55:00to my attention.
55:01I don't understand.
55:02While you are
55:03undoubtedly one
55:04of the least
55:04intelligent people
55:05in this room,
55:06I highly suspect
55:07this is something
55:08you do actually understand.
55:09Do you remember
55:10why I agreed
55:11to sponsor your son?
55:13It was because
55:13of his scores
55:14in the last
55:15three qualifying exams.
55:16There were
55:17three qualifying tests
55:18in the last month
55:20that your son
55:21passed with
55:22flying colors
55:24before he could
55:25appear for this exam.
55:26Turns out
55:27you faked
55:27your son's grades
55:28in all the three exams
55:31and did a convincing job
55:33that even fooled me.
55:35Are you saying
55:35Ryder's test results
55:36were faked?
55:37So this has all
55:38been a deceptive ploy.
55:39I poured a lot
55:40of money
55:40into your son.
55:42You had me convinced.
55:44This young man
55:45was a path
55:46to a promising future
55:47for all of us.
55:49Mr. Baker,
55:49this is all
55:50a misunderstanding.
55:53This is the contract
55:54you signed.
55:57I think you know
55:58where this is going.
56:05What is it?
56:06According to this contract,
56:08if you were to breach
56:10its terms,
56:11or in other words,
56:12if you were to commit fraud,
56:14you would owe me
56:15a compensation
56:15of $40 million.
56:17I don't have
56:19that kind of money.
56:20You better find it
56:21as the alternative
56:22is much worse.
56:24How did you
56:24let this happen?
56:26Me?
56:27You're the one
56:28who said
56:28nobody would ever
56:29find out.
56:30That's the problem
56:31with trying to outsmart
56:32people smarter than you.
56:33If either of you
56:34were smarter,
56:35you'd have realized
56:35how dumb your plan was.
56:37I hate you.
56:38Don't be angry, Mom.
56:40I am not your mom.
56:42Get lost.
56:44I hate you too.
56:45I hate all of you.
56:49If you don't give me
56:50an answer here,
56:51Mr. Miller,
56:52I am afraid
56:53I will have to call
56:54the authorities
56:55and make this
56:56a criminal matter.
57:00Ivy.
57:02Please.
57:04For the boy.
57:05This isn't
57:06Ryder's debt
57:07or fault.
57:08This is on you.
57:09What you have done
57:10has violated
57:11not only our vows,
57:13but your responsibility
57:15to your children
57:16and, quite simply,
57:18the law.
57:20I am so,
57:22so sorry.
57:26You are going to jail
57:28for a long time, Tristan.
