00:00:02Soon each of us will go our separate ways, to different cities, different colleges.
00:00:08But the important thing isn't so much where we're going, but what we take with us.
00:00:14Let's show the world that studying at Montclair isn't just a privilege, it's a responsibility.
00:00:21My boyfriend is the hottest and smartest guy in school, and I cannot believe he chose me.
00:00:26And just as bees spread pollen from one flower to another, allowing an entire field to bloom,
00:00:33now's our turn to spread what we've learned at Montclair everywhere we go.
00:00:40I love you, fairy.
00:00:46I feel like I'm gonna be sick.
00:00:49No, no, no, no. But we use protection.
00:00:53Sarah, listen to me. I've let this little fling go on because I assumed you were just some high school
00:00:59amusement.
00:01:01Oh, and can't have some trashy low-class girl on his arm if he wants to succeed.
00:01:05What have you got there?
00:01:08Give it to me.
00:01:11Give it to me.
00:01:12Give it to me!
00:01:19You're pregnant.
00:01:22This is between me and Owen.
00:01:24You stupid girl!
00:01:26Owen has a future in D.C. and Congress.
00:01:29People say he could become President of the United States.
00:01:34If people find out he had a child out of wedlock in high school,
00:01:38his career is over before it begins.
00:01:41Is that what you want for Owen?
00:01:44For him to be stuck here with you?
00:01:46To give up his dreams?
00:01:49If you really love Owen, you will end this pregnancy and never speak to him again.
00:01:58Understand?
00:02:06Owen, I am so proud of you.
00:02:08After that performance, all the Ivy Leagues will be calling and then Congress.
00:02:12The sky's the limit for you.
00:02:15For us, you mean.
00:02:16Sarah's the reason I won today.
00:02:19You think you'd talk to some of your connections about getting her a scholarship too?
00:02:23Mom, you know it's not her fault she can't afford the Ivy Leagues.
00:02:26She's the most brilliant student in the school.
00:02:28I want her with me.
00:02:31We will end this pregnancy and never speak to him again.
00:02:36You know I'd do anything for you.
00:02:40Thanks, Mom.
00:02:45I have to do this for Owen's future.
00:02:48Sarah!
00:02:50Sarah, I've got great new-
00:02:52Sarah!
00:02:54What are you doing?
00:02:56Exactly what I told her to.
00:02:59Owen.
00:03:00I'm so sorry.
00:03:02I-
00:03:03Hey, man.
00:03:05She came on to me, so...
00:03:06You son of a bitch!
00:03:08Owen!
00:03:08Look at the Ivy Leagues in Congress.
00:03:10Don't ruin your future over some high school girlfriend.
00:03:13You better get out of here right now.
00:03:15I don't care, I'll break your face.
00:03:21I thought you loved me.
00:03:23We had a future.
00:03:27I don't love you.
00:03:30We don't have a future.
00:03:32We never did.
00:03:35You need to move on with your life.
00:03:41I was gonna propose to you.
00:03:44God, I'm such an idiot.
00:03:49Good job.
00:04:04The campaign officially starts tomorrow.
00:04:06Be ready.
00:04:11What the fuck?
00:04:12My coffee isn't even hot.
00:04:14If I wanted a room temperature slop,
00:04:15I would've ordered it.
00:04:17I'm so sorry about that, ma'am.
00:04:18It was hot when I first brought it out,
00:04:20but you were on the phone.
00:04:20How dare you contradict me?
00:04:22The customer is always right.
00:04:24Tony!
00:04:28Straighten out your employees, please.
00:04:31Otherwise, we won't be filming here tomorrow.
00:04:33Filming?
00:04:34Filming what?
00:04:35Filming what?
00:04:36I'm sorry about that, Brittany.
00:04:37I'll straighten her out.
00:04:39You.
00:04:39You're lucky your ass is so nice,
00:04:41otherwise I'd fire it a long time ago.
00:04:43Now go clean the toilets,
00:04:44and that coffee's coming out of your tips.
00:04:53Why don't you quit?
00:04:54Unlike me, you're smart.
00:04:56You went to Montclair.
00:04:58You know why I can't.
00:05:00Tom, come grab your lunch.
00:05:04There you go.
00:05:05Okay.
00:05:06Uh, do you want to run your speech
00:05:07before you head out?
00:05:08Ah, I'm good, Mom.
00:05:09Of course you're good.
00:05:10You're the best.
00:05:11Local women, get ready.
00:05:13Mom, turn up the TV.
00:05:15Owen Carter, who left 10 years ago
00:05:16for Washington, D.C.,
00:05:18has returned to his hometown to run for mayor.
00:05:20From young, handsome billionaire
00:05:22to mayor of one of the East Coast biggest cities.
00:05:26Can Carter pull it off?
00:05:27I can think of some things I'd love
00:05:28Owen Carter to pull off of me.
00:05:30Owen Carter?
00:05:31Wow, no way.
00:05:35Mom?
00:05:36Mom, what's wrong?
00:05:38Are you okay?
00:05:40Do you know Owen Carter?
00:05:42No.
00:05:43No.
00:05:43He was at Montclair with your mom.
00:05:46I want to be just like him one day.
00:05:48No wonder you have the same jeans.
00:05:51Wait.
00:05:53Jeans as in pants is what she meant.
00:05:55Um, as in he wears the same jeans and pants.
00:05:59As you do.
00:06:00As you do.
00:06:00So you are going to be late for your young leaders conference.
00:06:03Remember.
00:06:03If you're late.
00:06:05You've already lost the debate.
00:06:06Uh-huh.
00:06:07Goodbye, Mom.
00:06:08I love you.
00:06:09Bye.
00:06:10Bye.
00:06:12I'm sorry.
00:06:14I slipped out.
00:06:15But you know you're going to have to tell him.
00:06:17Right?
00:06:18You don't know Owen's mom.
00:06:20You will end his pregnancy.
00:06:22And never speak to him again.
00:06:26As long as I can avoid him while he's on the campaign trail, it'll be fine.
00:06:29Yeah.
00:06:30About that.
00:06:31I just gotta push.
00:06:33He's supposed to be filming some PR thing for his campaign tomorrow.
00:06:36At the cafe.
00:06:39What?
00:06:42What?
00:06:43So, he comes in.
00:06:44You shake hands.
00:06:45Talk about small business.
00:06:46The value of hard work.
00:06:47Blah, blah, blah.
00:06:48That's Owen's PR director.
00:06:50He cannot find out I had his son.
00:06:52I have to avoid him.
00:06:54Showtime.
00:06:55Don't fuck this up, you guys.
00:06:56Yeah.
00:06:57Why is Owen Carter good for this role?
00:07:00Oh my God.
00:07:00Everyone needs Owen Carter in their life.
00:07:02He's perfect.
00:07:03He's like, literally perfect.
00:07:05He's like, literally perfect.
00:07:06He's like, literally perfect.
00:07:19He's gonna be our leader.
00:07:21He's gonna start by leading me.
00:07:25Get in mind, bitches.
00:07:27I'm going to be Mrs. Mayor.
00:07:29We can already see Owen Carter's passionate fan base as he makes his first stop at the Simple Cafe where
00:07:35he wrote his first speeches.
00:07:40So, we go in, you chat with the business owner, you stick to the questions that I prepared
00:07:45for you because I did my opposition.
00:07:46Brittany, my whole campaign is about helping small businesses.
00:07:49I think I know what questions to ask.
00:07:51Alright.
00:08:10What's wrong?
00:08:11You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:08:13Not a ghost.
00:08:15A fairy.
00:08:26Are you sure you want to do this?
00:08:29Yeah.
00:08:30I want you to be mine first.
00:08:41Alright, let's get you out of the sun, we've got to go inside.
00:08:52So much for not seeing Owen.
00:08:58Hello, future mayor, what can I get for you?
00:08:59Yeah, Viennese coffee, a macchiato on soy, how about a cortado with Ethiopian beans?
00:09:05Ah, wow.
00:09:07Guess my secret's out.
00:09:09Just, uh, black drip coffee, please.
00:09:12Oh, he's such a man.
00:09:15Don't let him notice me, don't let him notice me.
00:09:17Sarah!
00:09:18How's blend for Mr. Carter?
00:09:26Let's go for a minute.
00:09:28What are you doing?
00:09:34Oh!
00:09:35Oh!
00:09:35Oh!
00:09:36Oh!
00:09:36Oh!
00:09:37Oh!
00:09:37Oh!
00:09:37Oh!
00:09:37Oh!
00:09:37Oh!
00:09:37Oh!
00:09:38Oh!
00:09:39Oh!
00:09:40Ah, are you okay?
00:09:41Ha.
00:09:42I'll live.
00:09:44How are you, Barry?
00:09:49That's going to burn, um, luckily I work all day with boiling hot liquids, so....
00:09:55I always carry something all on me.
00:10:10Look at you saving me again.
00:10:13Just like old time South Airy.
00:10:17What the fuck, Sarah?
00:10:18You spilled coffee on the future mayor?
00:10:20Hey, it's an accident. It's fine.
00:10:22You wanna know about small business?
00:10:24I'm gonna tell you the truth.
00:10:24I can't afford quality girls.
00:10:27So I have to set off a trash like-
00:10:28Hey, that is not okay.
00:10:30It most definitely isn't.
00:10:32I'm glad you agree.
00:10:33I'm gonna do what I should have done a long time ago.
00:10:36Sarah, you're fired.
00:10:38What?
00:10:39That is not what I meant.
00:10:41You know what?
00:10:42That's okay.
00:10:44I don't wanna work for a horny, misogynistic, shit breathing asshole anyways.
00:10:48So actually, I quit.
00:10:51You fucking bitch.
00:10:55Don't you dare lay a hammer on her.
00:10:56Okay.
00:10:57I wanna do a photo op in this dump anyway.
00:11:00Let's get out of here.
00:11:01Yeah.
00:11:02Couldn't agree more.
00:11:07You know what? I'll find another job.
00:11:09I'll even work at night if I need to to pay for Tom's education.
00:11:14Sarah, I'm not gonna let him fire you.
00:11:18I don't need you to fight my battles for me.
00:11:20I have been through enough since high school to learn how to survive on my own even when things get
00:11:24hard, so.
00:11:25What do you mean?
00:11:26What things?
00:11:29Things.
00:11:30Owen, I'm a grown woman.
00:11:31I've been through things.
00:11:32I know.
00:11:34You should at least let me give you a ride home.
00:11:37I live close enough to walk.
00:11:38It's fine.
00:11:40In that case, I might need a favor.
00:11:43I'm supposed to be on national TV in an hour, and I am covered in coffee.
00:11:49Any chance I might use your shower?
00:12:00Thanks for helping me out.
00:12:02Yeah.
00:12:02I mean, I did sell coffee on you, so I would, yeah.
00:12:05Uh, shower is right there.
00:12:08Okay.
00:12:16Hi.
00:12:16You wouldn't happen to have a men's dress shirt lying around, would you?
00:12:20It belongs to a husband or boyfriend?
00:12:23Uh, no.
00:12:24No boyfriend.
00:12:25No husband.
00:12:26No shirt.
00:12:27Uh, the only thing I have that might fit you are the sweatshirts I sleep in.
00:12:37This is my sweatshirt.
00:12:40You kept it.
00:12:42Oh.
00:12:43Yeah, I mean not like for any reason, just saving money I guess, but yeah.
00:12:47Mm-hmm.
00:12:48Ah, well, I'm sure my mom would kill me for doing an interview in this, but uh, maybe it'll
00:12:54be relatable.
00:12:54Yeah.
00:12:58So his mother still controls his life.
00:13:03She can't find out that I have Tom.
00:13:06Or that I'm even interacting with Owen at all.
00:13:11So what are you gonna do now?
00:13:13For work?
00:13:14Uh, you know, there's bound to be someone who wants to hire an unskilled dropout.
00:13:18Oh, stop it.
00:13:19You were one of the smartest kids in the school.
00:13:21Yeah, well, life happened.
00:13:25And I'm actually glad Tony fired me.
00:13:27He's just, he's one of those people where he doesn't realize that society isn't measured
00:13:32by the people who lead it, but by the people it refuses to leave behind.
00:13:40What was that thing you just said?
00:13:43Uh, z-
00:13:44What?
00:13:46Society isn't measured by who leads it, but-
00:13:49By who it refuses to leave behind.
00:13:53So?

00:28:55eleanor
00:28:56eleanor threatened to expel him from school
00:28:59she's gonna ruin him before he even has a chance to start
00:29:02to be honest
00:29:03he's gonna give it all up himself
00:29:05because you're keeping this secret
00:29:07you're not 18 anymore
00:29:10if eleanor fights dirty
00:29:11you can fight back
00:29:13it's not just about me
00:29:16it's owen
00:29:17if people find out that he had a kid out of wedlock in high school
00:29:22i mean he could lose this election his career could be over
00:29:25okay
00:29:26sarah
00:29:27this is not the 1970s
00:29:29so what if he had a kid out of wedlock
00:29:31plenty of elected officials have done way worse
00:29:35tom and owen both deserve to know the truth
00:29:39you're right
00:29:40i'm sorry
00:29:48one criticism is that you're all style
00:29:51and no substance
00:29:52that you offer no real solutions to the issues
00:29:55well take small business for example
00:29:57i proposed we raise workers wages
00:30:00which places a financial burden on small businesses right
00:30:04how can anyone benefit if they can't afford to keep the business running
00:30:08yes um
00:30:13you'll have to excuse me
00:30:14i'm having a little trouble articulating at the moment
00:30:17isn't it a public servant's job to articulate things to the public
00:30:23he's been totally unfocused since that waitress advisor left
00:30:27he's stressed
00:30:29he's been focusing so much on the campaign
00:30:31he could use a little feminine comfort
00:30:35i wish
00:30:36that that would be my dream
00:30:38i've wanted owen for years
00:30:41well now's the time
00:30:44make your move
00:30:47owen
00:30:47hey
00:30:48that was great
00:30:49sure a few places we could
00:30:51tighten
00:30:52maybe we go get a drink
00:30:54talk
00:30:55strategy
00:30:56maybe later
00:30:57go after him
00:30:59and make sure that white trash parasite stays away
00:31:02what is your problem
00:31:05why is she good enough for owen and i'm not
00:31:07she actually helps his future
00:31:11remind me again how your story ended
00:31:14wow no i remember exactly how it ended

00:34:41really
00:34:42no i'll let fate do that for me
00:34:46i would um
00:34:48answer that if i were you
00:34:53uh miss holden
00:34:54hi
00:34:54is everything okay
00:34:56what's wrong
00:34:56did something happen to tom
00:34:57not to tom
00:34:59by tom
00:35:00he vandalized the school's computer lab
00:35:02wait
00:35:03sir what
00:35:05no that doesn't sound like tom
00:35:07he would never
00:35:07i know
00:35:08but the damage was so severe
00:35:10we brought in the police
00:35:11and we have tom's dna
00:35:13at the scene
00:35:15dna
00:35:16i'm sorry to tell you
00:35:18tom is suspended from school
00:35:21and thus disqualified

00:35:29this is a terrible mistake
00:35:31tom loves this school
00:35:33he loves it
00:35:33he would never do anything like that
00:35:35parents often have blind spots
00:35:37when it comes to their children
00:35:39the school board will meet
00:35:41and decide if tom should be expelled
00:35:44ex-
00:35:44goodbye
00:35:50another fatherless child turned to crime
00:35:54first there'll be a police report
00:35:56then child welfare will get involved
00:35:59why you might lose everything
00:36:02what kind of person
00:36:04frames their own grandchild
00:36:07a woman
00:36:09who loves her son
00:36:12now are you going to keep your mouth shut
00:36:15about tom being owens
00:36:17or are you going to open it
00:36:19and ruin tom's life
00:36:24fine
00:36:27you win
00:36:29i won't say anything to owen or to tom
00:36:33but you have to get this little incident erased off of tom's record
00:36:37oh i can't do that
00:36:39but i can have him reinstated
00:36:42in the student council election
00:36:44on the condition that
00:36:47you get out of our lives
00:36:49the moment this campaign ends
00:36:53hi
00:36:59yes it's a lot of nuance
00:37:01it's hard to explain
00:37:02a few short soundbikes
00:37:05yes thank you for your time
00:37:07i hope
00:37:08everyone listening goes out the boat
00:37:22hello

00:37:24go away
00:37:26i'm sorry you're having a hard time kid
00:37:29i can relate
00:37:32i once locked myself in that same stall after a bad day
00:37:34a long time ago
00:37:41why would someone lie about me destroying the computer lab
00:37:44i didn't even do anything
00:37:46yeah you know in politics you learn a lot about lies
00:37:50liars are weak
00:37:50and they're afraid of the truth
00:37:52you just might have been the truth for someone
00:37:56who you running against
00:37:57jayden green

00:38:22the truth always wins in the end
00:38:25keep the faith
00:38:43you always stick your tongue out like that when you're concentrating

00:39:07what are you doing here
00:39:08following up on your son's vandalism
00:39:11i don't know if you understand how much damage was done
00:39:15it looks even worse than
00:39:17your house
00:39:18oh
00:39:19oh
00:39:19um
00:39:21sorry i just
00:39:22i started a new job
00:39:23and i haven't really had time to quit
00:39:24i admit i was surprised to learn
00:39:26tom was behind it
00:39:27he's a model student
00:39:29but
00:39:30now i understand
00:39:32children often act out
00:39:34when they are neglected
00:39:35neglected
00:39:38i would never neglect
00:39:40tom
00:39:41and he didn't act out
00:39:42he was frank
00:39:43oh well
00:39:43if you know the perpetrator
00:39:45i'd love to know
00:39:46she'll never believe eleanor did it
00:39:48not without any proof
00:39:49and then tom would get thrown out
00:39:51i know tom like the back of my hand
00:39:54he would never act out like this
00:39:56the evidence says otherwise
00:39:59and uh
00:40:00as the parent
00:40:01it is your responsibility
00:40:03to pay for the damages
00:40:07twenty thousand dollars
00:40:10well i don't have that kind of money
00:40:12miss watson
00:40:13your son smashed
00:40:16fifteen laptops
00:40:17and broke three windows
00:40:19the only reason
00:40:20he did not get expelled
00:40:22is because eleanor carter
00:40:24spoke on his behalf

00:40:27in the first place
00:40:27and

00:44:01goodnight
00:44:18hey
00:44:19what magic you're working today fairy
00:44:21we are going to explain your stance on small businesses

00:44:27i know but you will
00:44:28for right now though
00:44:29we're going to film a video here
00:44:30my friend daisy works here
00:44:31all you have to do is go in and ask her about her salary
00:44:34that's it she'll answer
00:44:35it'll be
00:44:36gold
00:44:37okay
00:44:38trust you
00:44:42something's missing
00:44:46i always carry a spare for tom just in case
00:44:48it might be a little swell on you
00:44:49but we are going to make it work
00:45:07where do you want me
00:45:09um inside
