09:59You can have it, ma'am
10:01I hope it makes you feel better
10:04Seven years
10:05The child I raised like a treasure never once asked me
10:07Are you okay?
10:14Thank you
10:16What's your name?
10:17My name is Mallory
10:19Mallory?
10:20Ma'am, I should go back
10:21I hope you feel better
10:23Have a good day
10:25She looks about Leona's age
10:27This is no time to cry
10:30I have to find my child
10:37Are you sure Hawthorne will announce Leona's company inheritance at her birthday party next week?
10:42Hawthorne has never liked me, but who cares?
10:45As long as Leona is a Crowley child, that inheritance is hers
10:48A Crowley child?
10:49As if Leon actually has anything to do with that family
10:52Maya, we agreed never to talk about that
10:55I know
10:56I'm just wondering how much longer I have to wait before I can stand beside you in the open
11:00It's arranged
11:01Next week, you'll join as my assistant
11:03Then you can be by my side openly
11:06Really?
11:07When have I ever lied to you?
11:12By the way, I took care of the other child
11:15What child?
11:17You know exactly which one
11:20I found Byers
11:22A wealthy couple
11:23Their son needs healthy organs
11:25And Mallory is a match
11:27Maya
11:29Are you saying...
11:30Arthur!
11:31Wake up!
11:32If Sarah finds out that child exists, what do you think she'll do?
11:34Everything will blow up
11:35I won't let anyone destroy everything we fought for
11:38That kid has to disappear
11:42Fine
11:42Do it your way
11:49Mrs. Crowley, this is Janice Verga
11:53Janice Verga
11:53Seven years ago, you handled my delivery
11:56And you helped Maya Loper switch the babies, didn't you?
11:59Mrs. Crowley, I don't know what you're talking about
12:03Your daughter is about to start at Wharton Corp, isn't she?
12:06Good grades?
12:07She should get in
12:08But if something unexpected happened, do you think it would still go smoothly?
12:13Please, no
12:16Mrs. Crowley, please
12:17She worked so hard
12:19Please don't ruin her life
12:20So you ruined my child instead?
12:23I'm sorry
12:23My daughter's house diagnosed with that can't then
12:26I needed money
12:27I had nowhere to turn
12:28Maya came to me and said she'd give me $200,000
12:31If I helped her...
12:32So you do know what it means to be a mother?
12:34I only mentioned your daughter's future and you fell apart
12:37What about me?
12:38Where did you send my child?
12:41Tell me, where is my child?
12:44At Hopehaven Foster Center
12:46It was funded under the Crowley name
12:48What did you say?
12:49Maya's cousin has been the director there
12:52The child has been there the whole time
12:54Over the years
12:55I often brought the girl small things
12:58This is her photo
13:00Mrs. Crowley, I can go to prison
13:02But please don't hurt my daughter
13:07This was a reward I got
13:08You can have it, ma'am
13:10I hope it makes you feel better
13:13She...
13:14She's my child?
13:16Maya told the center to give her special care
13:19She went hungry half the time
13:21Her clothes never fit
13:22And she was always covered in bruises
13:24But that kid is a real hard work
13:26And so thoughtful, too
13:29I'm sorry
13:30Special care, ma'am
13:33Annie, get the car
13:34We're going to Hopehaven
13:35Yes, Mrs. Crowley
13:44Mallory, these are going to be your new parents
13:52They don't actually want to adopt me
13:54What nonsense are you talking about?
13:57The other kids told me
13:58They just want to take my heart for their child
14:01Oh, Mallory
14:02Don't listen to those kids
14:03They're only saying that
14:05Because they don't want you to leave
14:06Your new parents are taking you to a better life
14:09Really?
14:11Of course
14:11Go on
14:14Come here, sweetheart
14:15Come to Mama
14:20Ms. Reyes
14:21We'll be going now
14:22Okay
14:23Take care
14:37Mrs. Reyes
14:38Someone is here
14:39It's Mrs. Crowley
14:43Mrs. Crowley?
14:45What is she doing here?
14:47He hid my child in a facility funded by the Crowley family
14:50No one would think to look here
14:52Arthur, you really planned this well
14:53Annie, run a background check on Marla
14:56I want it in 30 minutes
14:57Yes, Mrs. Crowley
14:59Mrs. Crowley, welcome
15:00What brings you here today?
15:02I'm looking for someone
15:03Looking for who?
15:06This child
15:07This child
15:07Mallory
15:08She found out?
15:09No
15:09I have to warn Maya
15:10Mallory?
15:12Oh, the children have a field trip today
15:13They should be back in about two hours
15:15Would you mind waiting?
15:16In an hour?
15:17They'll be on the plane
15:18Too late to stop them
15:21Okay
15:22Please have a seat
15:23I'll step out to make a call
15:28What's wrong?
15:30Mallory got adopted
15:31Isn't that a good thing?
15:34But I heard the people taking her are bad
15:40Kids, the Mallory you're talking about
15:42Is it this girl?
15:43Yeah, that's her
15:44Where is she now?
15:45She got taken away
15:46I overheard Mrs. Reyes on the phone
15:49They said they were going to take Mallory's heart
15:51And put it in someone else
16:02Mrs. Crowley, I've got it
16:03Marlon Reyes is Maya Lopez's cousin
16:09Family
16:13Should I call the police?
16:16Not yet
16:17I need to get the truth out of her first
16:23Pick up
16:24Come on, pick up
16:29Oh, shit
16:39Mrs. Crowley?
16:43Mrs. Reyes, I'll ask you one more time
16:45Where is Mallory?
16:47She went on a field trip
16:50Tell me
16:51Where is my child?
16:52She really went on a field trip
16:54She'll be back in two hours

21:11I won't let you take her
21:15Miss Crowley
21:18You have two choices
21:20Walk out on your own
21:21Or leave in handcuffs
21:27Hold them
21:29Don't let them contact anyone
21:30Yes
21:35Ma'am
21:35You just said you're my mom
21:38But
21:38I don't have a mom
21:40Are you really my mom?
21:41Yes
21:42I'm your mom
21:43Are you going to take something from my body too?
21:46I'm scared it'll hurt
21:51You do have a mom
21:52Your mom
21:52I'm sorry
21:54Mommy came too late
21:55I will never let anyone take you away again
22:12Dad
22:13This is my daughter
22:23Sweetheart
22:24Welcome home
22:25I'm your grandpa
22:31Hello
22:33Hello
22:40Let's talk inside
22:42Victoria is waiting for you
22:52Sarah
22:56My sweet
23:00Mom
23:01I'm okay
23:05Hello
23:05I'm Victoria
23:07Your grandma
23:08Welcome home
23:09Hello
23:11Mrs. Crowley
23:14Take her to wash up first
23:17Use Leona's clothes for now
23:19Yes Mrs. Crowley
23:21Sweetheart
23:22Go rest
23:23And have something to eat first
23:25Okay
23:27My child should have grown up with the best of everything
23:30They stole seven years of that from her
23:32Baby give me just a little more time
23:36Dad
23:37Mom
23:38I'm sorry
23:40I've made you worry all these years
23:41That doesn't matter right now
23:43What are you going to do?
23:45I've already gathered some evidence
23:46The DNA test
23:47Asset transfer records
23:49Testimony from the foster center
23:50I'm going to leave him with nothing
23:52I'll handle the legal side
23:54The family's legal team is ready whenever you are
23:56I'll assign people to investigate
23:57Every piece of evidence must be preserved
24:03What is her name?
24:05Mallory
24:06Mallory?
24:07No one at Hope Polar ever bothered to change it
24:09Then from this day on her last name is Crowley
24:13As for her first name
24:15No
24:15Her name stays Mallory Crowley
24:17She was born a Crowley
24:18And I want that name back where it belongs
24:21Good
24:22Mallory Crowley
24:25I'll go up and see her first
24:27Madam
24:28Sir
24:29What happened?
24:30I was helping the little girl change
24:32And she's covered in marks
24:34Bruises over bruises
24:35Some fresh, some old
24:36What kind of injuries?
24:37Everywhere
24:38Her arms, her back, her legs
24:40Some have already scabbed over
24:41Some are still purple
24:42This has been going on for a long time
24:44Those bastards!
24:45Arthur
24:46Every scar on her body is going on your bill
24:49Sarah, breathe
24:50The doctor is on her way
24:52We document every injury, every bruise, every damn thing they did to her
24:56Mom's right, I'm going upstairs to see her now
25:01Calvin?
25:02Where's the doctor?
25:03Still on her way, Mr. Crowley
25:05Wait at the front door
25:06The second she arrives
25:08Bring her in
25:09Yes, Mr. Crowley
25:14Okay, where are you two sneaking me off to?
25:17Eyes closed
25:18Careful, there's a step
25:20Mommy, I saw you peek
25:22I didn't
25:23Mommy kept my eyes closed
25:26Almost there
25:29Alright
25:29Open your eyes
25:31Do you like it?
25:35It's right
25:37I love it
25:38Thank you, baby
25:39Happy birthday, honey
25:40Thank you
25:42I'm so happy
25:43When I'm with you two
25:44I keep wishing this could be our real life
25:46No hiding
25:47No pretending
25:48Just us
25:49You are my real life
25:50Give me one more week
25:51Once the inheritance is locked in
25:53I'll give you the wedding I should have given you years ago
25:54Bigger than Sarah's?
25:56Sarah's wedding was politics
25:57Yours will be love
25:59Sarah, so what if you're of noble birth?
26:01Your husband isn't truly yours
26:03And neither is your daughter
26:04You're so pitiful
26:08All right, presents
26:09Leona and I spent forever choosing them
26:11Mm-hmm
26:15Oh my god, this is impossible to find
26:18You really hunted it down for me?
26:20For you?
26:20Always
26:21Do you love it?
26:22I do
26:23Put it on me?
26:25Of course
26:30How does it look?
26:31Beautiful
26:33Mommy, you're so pretty
26:34Look at you
26:36Saying all the right things
26:38Mommy, open mine next
26:40Mine is better than Dad's
26:42Is that a challenge, my sweet?
26:44Bring it here
26:45Let's see
26:48Right
26:49Today's Sarah's birthday too, isn't it?
26:51I would have forgotten if you hadn't said it
26:53Call her
26:54Keep it sweet
26:57Have Sarah feeling neglected
26:59You're right
27:00You always see the whole board
27:09Happy birthday, honey
27:10Lena, come say happy birthday to your mom
27:12I don't want to
27:14Lena, don't be rude
27:16Go on, honey
27:17It'll be over in a second
27:24Happy birthday
27:34That was barely a sentence
27:36I don't want to
27:37Be sweet
27:38Mommy wants a yacht
27:40Ask her for it, okay?
27:42Fine
27:44Good girl
27:45We're away right now
27:47And shipping a gift back is a hassle
27:49Let's skip presents this year
27:51You already have everything, Sarah
27:53One less gift won't kill you
27:55Funny
27:55Buying gifts for his mist with my money
27:58Never seems to be a hassle
27:59Nine years of anniversaries
28:01Birthdays
28:02Every little detail handled by me
28:03And in their eyes
28:05I was the help with the trust fund
28:07I should have thrown that devotion in the trash
28:09Then we're done here
28:10Wait
28:12Don't hang up
28:15Leona wants to talk to you
28:18She's missed you too
28:22Mommy, I miss you
28:24Mommy, remember the boat you promised me?
28:27I want a real yacht
28:28One I can take out on the ocean
28:30When are you buying it?
28:35I'm so tired of being stuck with Sarah every day
28:38She only says she misses me when she wants something
28:40And I gave her everything for those three little words
28:43God, I was naive
28:44From now on, don't even think about taking anything else from me
28:49We'll talk when you're back
28:51Why did she hang up?
28:53That's not Sarah
28:54If Leona says she misses her, Sarah usually melts
28:57Why was she so cold?
29:00What's wrong?
29:01Nothing
29:01Sarah just sounded wrong
29:03Usually she lingers on the phone with Leona
29:05Today she cut us off
29:06Do you think she knows something?
29:07Marlet called me several times
29:09And I missed every call
29:10What if Hope Haven went sideways?
29:13No one's picking up
29:16Shit!
29:19What if something actually happened?
29:21I'll try again, maybe she's just busy
29:26Marlant?
29:27Finally, where the hell have you been?
29:29I've been tied up
29:30What's wrong?
29:31What's wrong?
29:32You blew up my phone
29:33Then vanished when I called back
29:34What the hell is going on?
29:36Oh
29:36I was in California for a charity event
29:39Bad reception
29:40California?
29:41Since when do you just run off to California?
29:43Last minute decision
29:44It's fine, don't worry
29:46And the center?
29:47The girl?
29:48Nothing went wrong?
29:49Don't worry
29:50Everything's fine
29:51I handled it
29:52Are you sure?
29:54I'm sure
29:54I have to go
29:56Bye
29:57She says she was in California
29:59And the foster center is fine
30:01California?
30:02Out of nowhere?
30:03She does charity events all the time
30:05Doesn't she?
30:06Maybe we're overthinking it
30:08Maybe
30:08Well, don't let Sarah get in your head
30:10She hasn't noticed a thing in seven years
30:13She's probably pouting
30:14Because you didn't take her on the trip
30:17You're right
30:17Sarah's used to being indulged
30:19The moment she feels left out
30:20She snulks
30:21You're nothing like her
30:22You actually understand me
30:28Honey, we're back
30:33Mommy, I missed you
30:36Why is she still this cold?
30:39She hasn't seen Leona in almost a week
30:40This isn't the reaction she should be having
30:42Sarah
30:43Leona's birthday party is in three days
30:46Your father said he'll announce the heiress there
30:48Are the venue, guest list, and schedule set?
30:50Do you need me to step in?
30:55It's handled
30:56Venue, guest list, schedule
30:58My father speaks
30:59The papers are signed
31:00The transfer is announced
31:01Two hours
31:01Two hours?
31:03For an inheritance announcement?
31:04My father approved it
31:05If you object, talk to him
31:08Leona, go play in your room
31:13Sarah, two hours makes this look small
31:15The board and the press will be there
31:17Don't you think people will say the Croweys are treating Leona's future like an afterthought?
31:26Leona's future?
31:27When did you ever care about any child who was actually mine?
31:30My father set the schedule
31:31Take it up with him
31:33There it is again
31:35Hawthorne Crowley
31:36The wall she hides behind
31:38Am I supposed to stay beneath this family forever?
31:41Fine
31:41If your father decided it, we'll follow it
31:44But if we're announcing Leona's rights
31:45The right people need to be in that room
31:47Don't worry
31:48Everyone who belongs there will be there
31:50Sarah, don't forget
31:51Leona is your daughter
31:52I know exactly what Leona is to me
31:59Everyone who belongs there will be there
32:06Arthur, it's been too long
32:08You certainly know how to throw a party
32:10Long time no see
32:11We had to
32:12Half of Austin's elite is here tonight
32:14Sarah, how are you holding up?
32:16Very well
32:16Thank you
32:17I hear Croweys Energy has been busy
32:19A few projects are finally moving
32:21Sarah, we hardly see you in public anymore
32:23Children have a way of shrinking your world
32:26Liera is starting to look just like Arthur
32:28That's what everyone says
32:31Who is that?
32:32No idea, but she certainly knows how to make an entrance
32:34Everyone, this is Maya Lopez
32:36My assistant
32:37She's been very helpful at the company
32:39So I wanted you all to meet her
32:40Arthur?
32:41Columbia educated and that beautiful?
32:42You do hire well
32:44You flatter me
32:45Young, polished, always beside Arthur
32:47Interesting
32:48Maya!
32:50Mrs. Lopez, right?
32:51My daughter seems very attached to you
32:54Leona is a sweet girl
32:55Maya helped with a few of Leona's enrichment classes
32:57That's all
32:58That's all?
33:00Good to know
33:02Then let's follow each other on Instagram
33:04Teachers and mothers should stay connected, right?
33:11Mrs. Lopez, your Instagram is spotless
33:14No friends, no photos, no life
33:17How unusual
33:17I don't use social media much
33:19Work keeps me busy
33:20And I never have much to post
33:22Maya is private
33:23She doesn't put her life online
33:24Private
33:25Of course
33:28Mrs. Croweys
33:29Mrs. Croweys
33:31Thank you
33:32Thank you all for coming today
33:33Mom, Dad, Sarah
33:38Arthur, is this the assistant you've been spending company money on?
33:42Yes, Maya Lopez, my new assistant
33:44Where did you find her?
33:45Columbia graduate, very capable
33:47She helps with my schedule and sometimes with Leona's schoolwork
33:50A seven-year-old's homework requires an executive assistant now?
33:53Sarah can't take care of her own child?
33:56Sarah has an Ivy League doctorate
33:58She can handle second-grade worksheets
34:01But apparently you needed a young Columbia graduate for that
34:05You're really quite generous, aren't you?
34:08I didn't think it through
34:09No, you didn't
34:11And don't confuse access with talent
34:13You sit where you sit because you married my daughter
34:15Without Sarah, you wouldn't be in this room
34:18Once I have the Crowler fortune in my hands
34:20I'll make every one of them choke on that arrogance
34:25Dad, you may have embarrassed Ms. Lopez
34:27She's young, beautiful, Columbia educated
34:30And apparently indispensable
34:32With such a beautiful woman by his side
34:34Arthur might not even need me anymore in the future
34:36Don't you think so, Arthur?
34:38Sarah, don't be ridiculous
34:39If Maya makes you uncomfortable, I'll ask her to leave
34:41No, she came for Leona's birthday
34:43We wouldn't want to be rude
34:45Dad, what's the starting monthly pay for an assistant with no real experience?
34:49A little over $3,000
34:50Then make hers four
34:51Consider it a family charity project
34:53Fine, if that's what you want
34:56Enjoy your little performance, Sarah
34:58One day, everything here is going to be mine
35:05Blueberry?
35:06I hate blueberry
35:07I want cherry cake
35:08Blueberry was always Sarah's favorite
35:10It's my birthday
35:11I want cherry
35:12Cherry!
35:13Grandpa, you always take my side
35:15Mommy and Grandma are being mean
35:16Leona, Sarah loved blueberry cake
35:19But after you were born, she stopped buying it for seven years
35:21Do you know why?
35:22Because you didn't like it
35:22He used to spoil Leona rotten
35:24Why is he suddenly keeping score?
35:28I don't want blueberry
35:30I hate it
35:32I don't want grandma either
35:34You're all mean
35:35Hawthorne and Victoria feel different tonight
35:38I want cherry!
35:41Change it!
35:42What if they change their minds?
35:43Leona's inheritance is still safe, right?
35:45But who else do they have?
35:48Leona is the only heir
35:49The board papers are signed
35:51Tonight is just theater
35:53Okay
35:55Don't cry
35:56It's just cake
35:57Daddy will buy you a cherry cake later
35:59The biggest one they have
36:01Really?
36:02Have I ever broken a promise to you?
36:04Mr. Crowder
36:05The inheritance documents are ready for your final review
36:08Alright
36:09Excuse me, everyone
36:11I'm going to give the documents one final look
36:13I'll be right back
36:14Arthur
36:14Be useful
36:15Entertain the guests
36:16Of course
36:18Take your time
36:23Leona is a sharp little girl
36:25She'll go far
36:27With Arthur guiding her
36:28I'm sure she will
36:29You're too kind
36:30She's spirited
36:32That's all
36:32She kept us busy as a toddler
36:37Spirited is good
36:38Smart children usually are
36:40Leona gets that from Arthur
36:41Good genes
36:42Miss Lopez knows exactly what to say
36:46Arthur and Miss Lopez do make a lovely picture
36:48If I didn't know better, I'd think I was the guest
36:51Miss Crowder, please
36:53I'm only Mr. Morris' assistant
36:56Maya, don't stand so far away
36:58I want to be with you
37:02Miss Crowder
37:03I'm sorry if this is awkward
37:05Leona is just very attached to me
37:08She gets upset when I'm out of sight
37:14Leona really is attached to Miss Lopez
37:16I've never seen her take to anyone that quickly
37:18Miss Lopez must have a gift with children
37:21You're very kind
37:23I just treat Leona with patience
37:25Children know who truly cares about them
37:27Maya has helped with Leona a lot
37:28Naturally, Leona likes her
37:31Leona, do you like Maya?
37:32Yes, I do
37:35Enough
37:35Why are you measuring yourself against an assistant?
37:38Everyone knows you're my wife
37:41Thank you for waiting
37:42Now I'll announce the future heiress of Crowley Energy
37:45Finally
37:46Nine years of smiling for these people
37:48And it all comes down to this
37:50Say Leona's name, old man
37:52Then everything Sarah was born with becomes mine
37:55Only I deserve all of this
37:56The Crowley family's fortune, their connections
37:59All of it will be mine
38:00All the years of disdain they've shown me
38:02I'll make every single one of you pay it back
38:04So what if you just have a good birth?
38:06Once I get all of this
38:08You'll still be on your knees begging me
38:12Crowley Energy will pass to
38:15Come on
38:16Say Leona
38:17My daughter
38:19Sarah Crowley
38:29Wait
38:29Sarah?
38:31I thought Leona was the heir
38:32You hired an assistant to take care of Leona, didn't you?
38:35That frees Sarah to return to the company where she belongs
38:38But this was settled
38:39You can't just rewrite it in front of everyone
38:44Rewrite what?
38:45Leona is my daughter
38:46My assets will be hers someday
38:47Why does it matter whether she gets them today?
38:50But the inheritance documents were signed
38:52You can't treat a corporate succession like a seating chart
38:55Miss Lopez
38:56Crowley family decisions are made by Crowlers
38:58Not assistants
38:59I can change at any time if I want
39:01Besides, you're an outsider
39:02You have no right to meddle in my family's affairs
39:05I'm Leona's biological mother
39:07The mistress of the Crowley family will be me
39:09An outsider like you getting so worked up
39:11Anyone wouldn't know better and might think you're actually Leona's mother
39:19Sarah, what the hell is that supposed to mean?
39:22You changed the heiress without warning
39:24Did you even think about Leona?
39:26Leona is seven
39:27She can wait
39:28You, on the other hand, seem oddly desperate
39:37It's Leona's birthday
39:38Let's not turn this into a board fight
39:40Let her cut the cake
39:41Yes, cut the cake
39:45Happy birthday to you
39:49Happy birthday to you
39:53I wish
39:55I could have a different mom
39:57I want to stay with Mommy Maya forever
40:04Oh, what was that?
40:12Kids say things
40:13Surely she didn't mean it
40:15Leona, enough
40:17Stop talking
40:19She's naughty and rambling
40:21Don't take it seriously
40:22Leona, go cut the cake with your parents
40:24Yes, yes
40:25Cake fixes everything
40:29Go get your mom
40:30We are cutting the cake as a family
40:35Mommy Maya
40:36Come cut the cake with me
40:41Leona, stop it
40:42Sarah, she's been around Maya too much lately
40:45She's confused
40:46Don't make this bigger than it is
40:47Right
40:48Children don't understand what they're saying
40:50Sarah, let it go
40:51It's a party
40:53Sweetheart, don't call me that
40:55Your mother might feel hurt
40:57Leona
40:58Do you want Maya to be your mother?
41:02All right
41:04Then I hope you get exactly what you asked for
41:09Sarah, don't be absurd
41:10Everyone knows Leona has one mother
41:12And it's she was a child
41:13Don't punish her for a sentence
41:15I'm not punishing her
41:18I'm respecting her
41:20If she wants another mother, I won't stand in her way
41:26Can someone please talk to her?
41:28How ridiculous
41:29Leona made a childish wish
41:31That's all
41:32Sarah is not a child
41:34If this is her decision
41:35Her mother and I support it
41:38It's Leona's birthday
41:40Let the birthday girl have what she wants
41:43Exactly
41:44Leona's happiness is what matters tonight, isn't it?
41:48But Dad, she was just throwing a tantrum
41:50Sarah is
41:51I hate this house
41:52I hate all of you
41:54I don't want to be here
42:02Sarah, we need to speak privately
42:04What has gotten into you
42:05Ever since Chicago, you've been punishing everyone
42:08First the inheritance
42:10Now a child's birthday wish
42:11Is this because I didn't take you to Chicago?
42:14You're blowing up our family over a trip?
42:16You were never this petty
42:20Sarah, this isn't you
42:21No, this is exactly me
42:23Really?
42:24Well, I didn't take you to Chicago this time
42:26And you're upset about it
42:27I get it
42:28If you're angry at me, be angry at me
42:29Don't take it out on a seven-year-old
42:31Do you have any idea
42:32How much of an impact
42:33The things you just said
42:34Will have on her?
42:35Taking it out on her?
42:36Arthur, you really think too little of me
42:38I'm just going along with her wishes
42:39Whoever she wants to call mommy
42:41I'll let her call
42:42What did I do wrong?
42:43This, this isn't reason
42:45This is you setting fire to our home
42:47Relax
42:48I haven't even given you your surprise yet
42:58That's mine
42:59Don't touch my things
43:08Who said you could touch my stuff?
43:11Why did you take my doll?
43:12Who are you?
43:13Who are you?
43:14This is my house
43:15That's my doll
43:16Why are you in my toy room?
43:17It's not yours
43:18Mommy gave it to me this morning
43:19I don't care
43:20In this house, if I want it, it's mine
43:22No, I can't cause trouble for mom
43:24And if I say you can't play here, you can't
43:27Mommy and my grandparents said I could
43:29This is my house
43:31My rules
43:32If I say no, you don't get to stay
43:34Where'd you get those clothes?
43:36Why are they the same as mine?
43:38Mommy dressed me
43:39Liar!
43:40My mom had those made for me
43:42Who are you?
43:52Thank you all for coming to Leona's birthday
43:55Since we're gathered here, I have a special gift for my husband
43:59What gift?
44:00Before he opens it, I'd like to tell you a story
44:02The story everyone thought they knew about Arthur and me
44:04A Crowley-Morris love story, now that's worth hearing
44:07We don't often get Sarah Crowley telling personal stories
44:10Nine years ago, we were students
44:12Arthur wasn't an executive
44:14He was a broke young student with hardly any moneyed his name
44:17Scraping by from one day to the next
44:18He told me he fell for me the moment he saw me
44:21Then he chased me like I was the only thing he wanted
44:23Where did you disappear to?
44:26Do you like it?
44:27I went to half the city looking for it
44:30Once, when I was sick in the hospital
44:32He rushed to me
44:33And was hit by a car on the way
44:37Sarah, are you okay?
44:38I'm almost there
44:52Sarah, are you alright?
44:54Why didn't you tell me you were sick?
44:56I'm coming
44:57He was injured
44:58And still all he cared about was me
45:00I thought that was love
45:02My parents didn't agree
45:05Sarah, he isn't the man for you
45:07We won't approve this marriage
45:09I want him
45:10In this lifetime, I choose only him
45:13No matter what any of you say
45:15To prove himself, Arthur stood outside our estate
45:18For three days and three nights
45:21Mr. and Mrs. Crowdy
45:22I love Sarah
45:24I will spend my life taking care of her
45:26Please give me a chance
45:28Eventually, my father gave in
45:30Arthur and I married
45:31Then Leona came into our lives
45:32So today, I want to thank my husband for nine years
45:35And for the home I thought we had
45:38And I have a special gift for him and Leona
45:43Sarah, you poor fool
45:45So the cold expression earlier was just setting the stage
45:48Alright
45:49Giving such a generous gift in front of all these people is her way of saving Mace
45:53Nine years have passed and she's still so easy to appease
45:56You didn't have to do this
45:57I know I upset you earlier
45:58But I also know you love me and Leona more than anything
46:00Really?
46:01Then guess what I brought you
46:02I promise you'll remember it forever
46:05Mommy, remember the boat you promised me?
46:07I want a real yacht
46:08One I can take out on the ocean
46:09When are you buying it?
46:11Is it the yacht Leona wanted?
46:12You actually bought it?
46:14Half right
46:14It does involve Leona
46:16Miss Crowley and Mr. Morris always look like the perfect couple
46:18Exactly
46:19She has poured herself into that husband and child
46:21I knew it
46:22You could never really turn your back on us, sir
46:26Don't get sentimental yet
46:27Bring it in
46:36Take that off
46:37You're not allowed to dress like me
46:40Mommy gave it to me
46:42Liar
46:43My mommy had that made for me
46:45Take it off
46:46Now
46:47Leona
46:48Miss Crowder brought this girl home
46:49Why don't we go back for cake?
46:51I said take those clothes off her and throw her out
46:53If you don't, I'll have dad fire you
46:55Leona, I can't do that
46:56Fine
46:57Don't listen
46:58You'll regret it
47:07You always make everything so thoughtful
47:09But you know, we don't need grand gestures
47:11You and Leona are enough for me
47:13Save the husband of the year speech
47:14I've waited a long time to give you this
47:16I want to see your face when you open it
47:27A dud to cumin envelope?
47:29Is this the yacht certificate Leona wanted?
47:32She made quite a ceremony out of it
47:34Open it
47:38What is this?
47:39Do you like it?
47:40Since it's already in your hands
47:41Read it for everyone
47:42Sarah, what are you doing?
47:44This is Leona's birthday
47:45Don't pull some stunt in front of all these people
47:47A stunt?
47:48Look at me, Arthur
47:50Read
47:57Since Mr. Morris seems to have lost his voice
48:00I'll read it myself
48:01The DNA report excludes Sarah Crowdy and Leona Morris
48:05As biological mother and child
48:07In plain winged wish
48:08Leona Morris is not my daughter
48:16Oh my god
48:17What did she just say?
48:19If Sarah isn't Leona's mother
48:20Then who is?
48:21Wait, no
48:22Is it her?
48:23No
48:24Absolutely not
48:25That report is fake
48:27Leona is your daughter
48:28You gave birth to her Sarah
48:30Sarah, you know that
48:31Then explain why the hospital record from that day
48:34Doesn't match Leona's birth certificate
48:38Have you lost your mind?
48:40It's our daughter's birthday
48:41And you're waving forged papers around like party fairs?
48:45Have you ever considered how Lieshda feels?
48:47What?
48:47You think tearing it up makes it disappear?
48:49I've got more
48:50As many as you want
48:51Miss Crowdy
48:52Please
48:53There has to be a misunderstanding
48:54I don't know where you got this
48:56But humiliating everyone at a child's birthday party
48:59Won't make it true
49:06How kind of you to worry about everyone's dignity, Miss Lopez
49:10Especially since I haven't even started with you
49:13Mrs. Crowdery, I didn't mean
49:15You meant I should stay quiet
49:17Keep smiling
49:18Keep playing mother to a child you put in my arms
49:21Arthur got his gift
49:23Now it's your turn
49:26This one is yours, Miss Lopez
49:28Aren't you going to open it, Mrs. Lopez?
49:31You know what's inside better than I do
49:34I... I don't know what you're talking about
49:35You don't?
49:37That's strange
49:37You were so involved
49:40Maybe this will help
49:42Leona's real mother
49:44Maya Lopez
49:59Give me that
50:02Arthur
50:03You thought I wouldn't find out?
50:07Sarah, listen to me
50:10Everyone here tonight is successful in their own right
50:13And many of you have watched Leona grow up
50:15But this report in my hand says it plainly
50:18All this time
50:19Her biological mother was standing beside my husband
50:22Pretending to be his assistant
50:25Arthur
50:26Sarah loved you
50:27The Crowers gave you everything
50:29How could you do this?
50:31We all thought you were respectable
50:33God, what a fraud
50:34And you
50:35Being the mistress and standing here smiling in Sarah's house?
50:39Shameless!
50:47Sarah
50:48You want out of this marriage?
50:50So you're trying to burn me down with it?
50:54Don't listen to her
50:55The report is fake
50:56She wants a divorce
50:58Without giving up assets
50:59And she doesn't want the company passing to Leona
51:03This is a setup
51:04She's been planning it
51:07Miss Crow, understand you don't like seeing me near Arthur
51:09But accusing me of this?
51:11How am I supposed to survive this kind of slander?
51:15Slander
51:16That's rich
51:22Then let's move to the photographs
51:30That's not an assistant
51:32That's his mistress
51:33Some people really can act
51:35I can't believe it
51:44Arthur, if I'm inventing this
51:46Explain the photos
51:48Did I also drag you into her hotel bed?
51:52It's not what it looks like
51:54The angles are misleading
51:55We were talking about Leona's lessons
52:01Leona's lessons?
52:02In a hotel room?
52:04Half dressed?
52:06Sarah
52:06I made a mistake
52:08Every man makes it
52:09The Crowley family lifted you to where you are today
52:13And this is how you repay us?
52:16By keeping another woman on the side?
52:18You switched my baby
52:20You stole seven years from me and my daughter
52:25You let my daughter disappear into foster's care while Maya's child grew up in my nursery
52:31And now, you want to stand there and call yourself the victim?
52:42I'm sorry you all had to witness this
52:44But there are debts that can't be settled in private
52:47These are Arthur's transfers to Maya over the last nine years
52:51A few thousand at first
52:52Then tens of thousands
52:54Then hundreds of thousands
52:55Then millions
52:59Our marital assets bought her houses and cars
53:04The jewelry, bags, and clothes I thought were mine
53:09Counterfeits
53:09The originals went to Maya Lopez
53:13Arthur, are you even human?
53:15The Crowles gave you a life
53:16Use their money to finance your mistress?
53:19That's not a man
53:20That's a parasite
53:21And you have the nerve to cry?
53:24Sarah Crowley
53:25Money doesn't make you God
53:27Arthur and I were together before you ever showed up
53:31What we had was real
53:33You don't get to rewrite that
53:34Because you bought a marriage
53:36What happened?
53:36Go manage
53:37Go manage
53:37Godie
53:37Go manage
53:38загg pointed
53:38What we had to do
53:38And you
