00:01:40If you really love Owen, you will end this pregnancy and never speak to him again.
00:01:57Understand?
00:02:30You will end this pregnancy and never speak to him again.
00:02:36You know I'd do anything for you.
00:02:39Thanks mom.
00:02:44I have to do this for Owen's future.
00:02:48Sarah!
00:02:50Sarah, I've got great new- Sarah!
00:02:54What are you doing?
00:02:55Exactly what I told her to...
00:02:59Owen...
00:03:00I'm so sorry.
00:03:02I...
00:03:03Hey man, she came on to me so...
00:03:06You son of a bitch!
00:03:08Look at the Ivy Leagues in Congress.
00:03:09Don'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.
00:03:20I thought you loved me.
00:03:23We had a future!
00:03:26I don't love you.
00:03:29We don't have a future.
00:03:31We never did.
00:03:35You need to move on with your life.
00:03:41I was gonna propose to you.
00:03:44I'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.
00:04:13If I wanted rude-temperature slop,
00:04:15I would've ordered it.
00:04:16I'm so sorry about that ma'am.
00:04:18It was hot when I first brought it out,
00:04:19but you were on the phone.
00:04:20How dare you contradict me?
00:04:22The customer is always right!
00:04:24Tony!
00:04:27Straighten out your employees, please.
00:04:30Otherwise, we won't be filming here tomorrow.
00:04:32Filming?
00:04:34Filming what?
00:04:35I'm sorry about that, Brittany.
00:04:37I'll straighten her out.
00:04:38You.
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.
00:04:52Why 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.
00:04:59Tom, come grab your lunch!
00:05:03There you go.
00:05:04Okay.
00:05:05Do you want to run your speech before you head out?
00:05:07I'm good, Mom.
00:05:09Of course you're good.
00:05:10You're the best.
00:05:11Local women, get ready.
00:05:12Mom, turn up the TV.
00:05:14Owen Carter, who left 10 years ago for Washington, D.C.,
00:05:17has returned to his hometown to run for mayor.
00:05:20From young, handsome billionaire to mayor of one of the East Coast's biggest cities.
00:05:25Can Carter pull it off?
00:05:27I can think of some things I'd love Owen Carter to pull off of me.
00:05:30Owen Carter?
00:05:31Wow, no way!
00:05:34Mom?
00:05:36Mom, what's wrong?
00:05:38Are you okay?
00:05:40Do you know Owen Carter?
00:05:41No.
00:05:43No.
00:05:43He was at Montclair with your mom.
00:05:45I want to be just like him one day.
00:05:48No wonder you have the same jeans.
00:05:50Wait.
00:05:52Jeans as in pants is what she meant.
00:05:55As in, he wears the same jeans and pants as you do.
00:05:59So you are going to be late for your Young Leaders Conference.
00:06:02Remember, if you're late, you already lost the debate.
00:06:06Uh-huh.
00:06:06Goodbye, Mom.
00:06:08I love you.
00:06:09Bye.
00:06:12I'm sorry.
00:06:13It slipped out.
00:06:14But you know you're going to have to tell him.
00:06:17Right?
00:06:18You don't know Owen's mom.
00:06:19You 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, about that.
00:06:31I just gotta push.
00:06:32He's supposed to be filming some PR thing for his campaign tomorrow.
00:06:36at the cafe.
00:06:39What?
00:06:42So he comes in, you shake hands, talk about small business,
00:06:46the value of hard work, blah, blah, blah.
00:06:48That's Owen's PR director.
00:06:49He cannot find out I had his son.
00:06:52I have to avoid him.
00:06:53Showtime.
00:06:54Don't fuck this up, you guys.
00:06:56Yeah.
00:06:57Why is Owen Carter good for this role?
00:06:59Oh my God, everyone needs Owen Carter in their life.
00:07:02He's like literally perfect.
00:07:04He took the respect out of my mom.
00:07:07Oh my God.
00:07:09He's like, oh my God.
00:07:12He's like, oh my God.
00:07:15Oh my God.
00:07:18Oh my God.
00:07:18He's going to be our leader.
00:07:21He's going to start by leading me.

00:11:17Tôi không cần bạn đối với tôi. Tôi đã từng trở thành từng lớp từng lớp để học cách sử
00:11:23dụng sống cho tôi, đúng không?
00:11:26Cái gì? Cái gì?
00:11:28Cái gì?
00:11:29Cái gì? Owen, tôi là một người trẻ. Tôi đã từng trở thành điều.
00:11:32Tôi biết. Anh có nên cho tôi cho tôi đi về nhà.
00:11:37Tôi có vẻ close enough để đi.
00:11:39Ờ, trong đó, tôi sẽ cần một giúp đỡ.
00:11:43I'm supposed to be on national TV in an hour
00:11:45and I am covered in coffee
00:11:48Any chance I might use your shower?
00:12:00Thanks for helping me out
00:12:01Yeah, I mean I did sell coffee on you
00:12:03so I owed you
00:12:05Uh, shower is right there
00:12:08Okay
00:12:15Hi
00:12:16You wouldn't happen to have a men's dress shirt lying around, would you?
00:12:19It belongs to a husband or boyfriend
00:12:23Uh, no, no boyfriend, no husband, no 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
00:12:41Oh
00:12:43Yeah, I mean not like for any reason
00:12:44Just, yeah, saving money I guess, but yeah
00:12:47Ah, well
00:12:49I'm sure my mom would kill me for doing an interview in this
00:12:51But, uh
00:12:53Maybe it'll be relatable
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 going to do now?
00:13:13For work?
00:13:14Uh, you know, there's bound to be someone who wants to hire an unskilled dropout
00:13:17Oh, stop it
00:13:19You were one of the smartest kids in the school
00:13:20Yeah, well
00:13:23Life happened
00:13:25And I'm actually glad Tony fired me
00:13:27He's just
00:13:28He's one of those people where he doesn't realize that society isn't measured by the people who lead it
00:13:33But by the people it refuses to leave behind
00:13:39What was that thing you just said?
00:13:44Uh, what?
00:13:46Society isn't measured by who leads it, but
00:13:49By who it refuses to leave behind
00:13:52So?
00:13:53I got a proposal for you
00:13:57You should come work for me
00:14:01I need a political advisor
00:14:04Remember high school?
00:14:05You used to help me strategize for debate team
00:14:07You helped me write up my talking points
00:14:09You helped me beat Joe Callahan back then
00:14:11We can beat him again now
00:14:12You remember all that?
00:14:14I remember everything, Sarah
00:14:19Sarah
00:14:19What are you doing?
00:14:25Oh
00:14:27Sorry
00:14:28Truth is
00:14:30I'm starting to feel like an imposter
00:14:33It's only a matter of time before everybody's gonna start seeing it
00:14:36Oh, and you've always been the best
00:14:38I was the best with you
00:14:40That was high school
00:14:42I didn't even go to college
00:14:43That doesn't matter
00:14:45I'd take your instincts over the degrees of all those empty suits around me any day
00:14:51You know this town better than anyone
00:14:54You got guts
00:14:56What I have is responsibilities
00:14:58I can't just start taking risks now
00:15:01Sarah, you don't have a job
00:15:06Right
00:15:08Just think about it, okay
00:15:10I won't forget what you were for me, Ferry
00:15:14We can do great things together
00:15:27Are you crazy?
00:15:28Being Owen's advisor is the perfect job for you
00:15:31Then bringing me on as the campaign influencer?
00:15:34It's a win-win-win
00:15:35No, no
00:15:36It is a bad idea for so many reasons
00:15:39Name one
00:15:40One, his evil mom
00:15:42She's vicious, she's connected
00:15:44And she thinks I aborted her grandson
00:15:50Is that Owen?
00:15:52I like the new look
00:15:54One of my guiding principles is that a society is not measured by who leads it
00:15:58But by who it refuses to leave behind
00:16:00Don't tell me
00:16:01Hmm
00:16:02You wrote that
00:16:04Joe Callahan, your response
00:16:06Like my opponent's sweatshirt
00:16:07Owen Carter's not a serious candidate
00:16:09No, he's a pretty boy poser
00:16:11Left his hometown to become an out-of-touch Washington insider
00:16:15I still can't believe he's running against that ass Joe Callahan
00:16:18I mean, he's kind of right, though
00:16:21Owen needs a miracle
00:16:22I know how to make him a miracle
00:16:25Okay
00:16:26But his mom, I can't
00:16:28What will she do?
00:16:30Fire you from a job you don't have?
00:16:32You wrote all his speeches with him back in the days
00:16:34You're smart
00:16:36Go help him
00:16:37We don't want Joe as mayor, right?
00:16:44Owen, as your PR consultant
00:16:46I beg you
00:16:46Do not respond to Joe Callahan
00:16:48Keech is jealous
00:16:50That everyone was reporting on how devastatingly handsome you are
00:16:53Which
00:16:54You are
00:17:01What the fuck is she doing here?
00:17:05Hey
00:17:06Hey
00:17:08Our high school library is your campaign headquarters?
00:17:11Ironic, isn't it?
00:17:12It's where I lost you to Joe Callahan
00:17:15I'm about to lose to him again
00:17:17I might have an idea that could help
00:17:20No, that's stupid, though
00:17:20You know what you're doing
00:17:21No, no, wait
00:17:22Tell me
00:17:24What idea?
00:17:25Okay
00:17:27You need to prove to the voters that you're the real deal
00:17:31And I'll show them evidence that they can see with their own eyes
00:17:34Tell me what to do
00:17:35Call a press conference
00:17:38My opponent, Joe Callahan, keeps saying I'm not authentic
00:17:43And he's right
00:17:45What the fuck?
00:17:46I did leave town
00:17:48I went to Yale, Washington
00:17:49I rubbed shoulders with the elites for years
00:17:52But here's where Joe's wrong
00:17:53I am proud of where I come from
00:17:56That's why I want to be mayor of this town
00:17:58So I can serve the hard-working people here
00:18:01That's why I sold my house in D.C.
00:18:05And bought one right here
00:18:06Visit anytime you like, Joe
00:18:13You
00:18:15What are you doing here?
00:18:17You have a lot of nerve showing up again
00:18:20I thought we got rid of you like you got rid of your fetus
00:18:24I warned you years ago to stay away
00:18:28And I am very powerful in this town
00:18:33Owen
00:18:33Look who crashed your little event
00:18:37The sweetheart who cheated on you with Joe Callahan
00:18:41Mom, let's leave the past in the past
00:18:43Sarah's my new political advisor
00:18:48You gotta be kidding
00:18:49She's your new advisor?
00:18:52Yes, she's a brilliant political mind
00:18:54No, no, nope
00:18:56I don't work for him
00:18:57I helped him with one small thing
00:19:00That's it
00:19:01I hope you'll reconsider
00:19:02I'm behind in the polls
00:19:04I need you
00:19:04No, you don't
00:19:05You already have Brittany and me
00:19:07And this one didn't even go to college
00:19:10She saved us
00:19:12It was her idea to buy the house
00:19:13It was just some basic idea
00:19:16From an inexperienced mind
00:19:18Trying to pander to the masses
00:19:21Okay
00:19:23I'm gonna go
00:19:24So thank you
00:19:25And goodbye
00:19:27Mom
00:19:27What are you doing here?
00:19:30You have a child?
00:19:31You have a child?
00:19:36Sarah, is this your son?
00:19:37Tom, what are you doing here?
00:19:39You forgot to give me my campaign stickers for the council
00:19:42Daisy said you'd be here
00:19:44Do you work for Owen Garter?
00:19:45Um, I don't know
00:19:50Maybe
00:19:51Wow, Mr. Carter
00:19:53My name is Tom Watson
00:19:56I'm a big fan
00:19:58I wish I was old enough so I could vote for you
00:20:00I wish I was young enough to vote for you
00:20:03Student council president, huh?
00:20:05You know
00:20:06I once had the same job at the same school
00:20:09Of course I know
00:20:10I know, like, everything about you
00:20:12Okay, bud
00:20:13Uh, we gotta get back to work
00:20:14Wait, can I get a picture first?
00:20:16Absolutely
00:20:18Okay
00:20:21Alright
00:20:23One, two
00:20:25We look so natural together
00:20:29Maybe I should just tell them
00:20:32The resemblance is uncanny
00:20:34Any advice for my campaign?
00:20:36Ah, well
00:20:38I've always said do good when no one's looking
00:20:40But, uh
00:20:42Your mom's the real campaign genius
00:20:44Thanks
00:20:45I know
00:20:45My mom told me my dad's a politician, too
00:20:53Okay, you should probably get back to class
00:20:55Bye, Mr. Carter
00:20:56Good luck
00:20:59Great kid
00:21:01Yes, Sarah
00:21:02Exactly
00:21:03How old is your charming little boy?
00:21:08He's, um
00:21:10Almost ten
00:21:11Is it possible that Tom is my son?
00:21:15I understand now
00:21:17That politician father
00:21:21Must be Joe Callahan
00:21:24I mean, they did date
00:21:27And, or at least, whatever it was we saw them doing
00:21:31Mom, it's none of our business
00:21:34I'm gonna head out
00:21:37Wait
00:21:38I have a surprise for you
00:21:41Okay
00:21:47This room needs a little work
00:21:52I cannot believe that this is the house you bought
00:21:55Heh, you remember it?
00:21:57The house you grew up in
00:21:59Smart
00:22:00Or my invaders of your childhood
00:22:02Lots of good memories in this room
00:22:10Admittedly, you could use a little furniture
00:22:12I remember my desk used to be right over there
00:22:14Oh my god, do you remember
00:22:16You used to get that mattress
00:22:18And bring it down here
00:22:19You used to put it right here
00:22:20Uh, yeah
00:22:21To be near my books
00:22:23No, exactly
00:22:25Oh god, that was finals week
00:22:28Finals week
00:22:31That was our first time
00:22:37Are you sure you want to do this?
00:22:39Yeah
00:22:41I want you to be my first
00:22:48That's why it still feels like home here
00:22:51All my best memories were here
00:22:53Because they all involved you
00:22:58Owen, you can't be serious
00:23:01We have three mansions
00:23:02A penthouse in D.C. and Manhattan
00:23:04A lake house
00:23:06And you want to live here
00:23:08I like it
00:23:09I'm staying
00:23:10May I have a word with my son?
00:23:16You never did think clearly
00:23:17When I came to that girl
00:23:18She has trouble
00:23:19She's not
00:23:20And I'm a grown man
00:23:21Trust me
00:23:22Every choice she makes
00:23:24Will cost you
00:23:29Owen, I can't believe it
00:23:30But that whole buying a house thing
00:23:32It worked
00:23:32You just went up almost 20 points
00:23:34In the polls
00:23:38See mom
00:23:38You gotta trust me
00:23:40Sarah and I can do great things together
00:23:43Even a blind squirrel
00:23:45Finds a nut once in a while
00:23:47Well I'm doubling that squirrel's offer
00:23:49That's my decision
00:23:50It's not changing
00:23:51Alright
00:23:52If that's your decision
00:23:54As your campaign manager
00:23:56I will close the deal with her
00:23:58Now
00:23:58You just focus on winning
00:24:00And
00:24:02Sarah and I will start fresh
00:24:04Hey Sarah
00:24:07Your plan worked
00:24:08We went up in the polls
00:24:10I know
00:24:11I saw
00:24:11See Eleanor
00:24:12I told you
00:24:13I'm not trying to hurt Owen
00:24:14I'm trying to help him
00:24:16I am sure
00:24:17We can work together
00:24:19Now
00:24:19Owen has a call scheduled
00:24:21With the governor
00:24:22We should let him take that
00:24:31You saw the polls
00:24:32Oh just shut up
00:24:33So in the end
00:24:35You kept seeing Joe
00:24:36Even though it started
00:24:37As a facade
00:24:40I guess I shouldn't be surprised
00:24:43I can't tell her
00:24:45Who Tom's father really is
00:24:46Imagine getting knocked up
00:24:48By both candidates
00:24:51Listen up you two-bit skank
00:24:53Here's how it's going to be
00:24:55We both know that you are dangerous
00:24:57To Owen's career
00:24:58If it gets out that he got you pregnant
00:25:01In high school
00:25:01And you got an abortion
00:25:03I listened to you in high school
00:25:06I'm not that little girl anymore
00:25:08I'm not
00:25:10I need this job
00:25:11And I would never hurt Owen
00:25:14You have no idea
00:25:16Who you're dealing with
00:25:18You will tell Owen
00:25:20You are refusing the job
00:25:22Or I will make your life
00:25:24Hell
00:25:24You already did
00:25:26Make my life hell
00:25:28You cost me the love of my life
00:25:31I have nothing left to lose
00:25:32Hmm
00:25:33Really?
00:25:35Your son goes to Montclair Academy
00:25:39Correct?
00:25:40Did you know I am still on their school board?
00:25:45You leave my son out of this?
00:25:48If you want your bastard to have a future
00:25:52You will get out of our lives
00:25:54So either Tom loses the opportunity of his life
00:25:59Or I lose the man who was the love of mine
00:26:02So
00:26:03Sarah
00:26:06Make your choice
00:26:10Second
00:26:11Let's adjust the tie
00:26:12What?
00:26:13Alright
00:26:14You know what?
00:26:15Let's
00:26:15Let's take a picture together
00:26:18Don't we look like we're a couple?
00:26:21Sorry if I'm interrupting anything
00:26:22You are interrupting everything
00:26:24I just need to talk to Owen
00:26:26Sure
00:26:27Let's go and wait
00:26:29That whore
00:26:31I will get my man
00:26:32What's up?
00:26:33Hey
00:26:34Um
00:26:35I can't take this job
00:26:36Why?
00:26:37It's too hard
00:26:38Just working together
00:26:39It's just bringing up a lot of really painful memories for me
00:26:42Oh look Sarah
00:26:43This is hard for me too
00:26:44I mean you broke my heart
00:26:45But I'm willing to put it behind me
00:26:46Because
00:26:48I believe in what we're doing here
00:26:49Well I do too
00:26:50I just can't
00:26:52If I can't convince you to stay
00:26:53You gotta at least let me pay you for your first day
00:27:03Five thousand dollars
00:27:06For one day
00:27:07Owen I can't take
00:27:09That's too much
00:27:09In that one day you changed the whole momentum of this election
00:27:13You're really talented Sarah
00:27:14Truth is I need you
00:27:19I'm sorry
00:27:20If you want your bastard to have a future
00:27:24You will get out of our lives
00:27:26I can't
00:27:27Change your mind
00:27:29I'm right here
00:27:35Five grand
00:27:36For one day
00:27:38We make a hundred and fifty dollars at the cafe
00:27:40I know
00:27:41I have to give it back
00:27:42Don't you dare
00:27:43Okay you don't have a job thanks to him
00:27:46And you have bills to pay
00:27:47You have a child to raise
00:27:51Hi
00:27:51Hey hey hey hey
00:27:52What's up?
00:27:52What's wrong?
00:27:53Whoever does not know his past
00:27:55His present is poor
00:27:57And his future is shrouded in fog
00:27:59Hey what are you talking about?
00:28:00All the candidates for student council president
00:28:02Had to fill out a family tree today
00:28:05To show the pride in where they come from
00:28:07And freaking Jaden
00:28:09Saw that I didn't know who my dad was
00:28:12So I don't have a future
00:28:15Hey
00:28:15Hey
00:28:16No no no no no
00:28:17Freaking Jaden doesn't know what he's talking about
00:28:20He has no idea he's wrong
00:28:21What hey?
00:28:22No he isn't
00:28:23I'm withdrawing from the ring
00:28:25Hey hey
00:28:25Don't do that my love
00:28:26Don't
00:28:27And tell me who my father is
00:28:30I will
00:28:31I will hon
00:28:33When you're older though I promise
00:28:34Just not right now
00:28:35Why not?
00:28:36It's complicated
00:28:36But I promise
00:28:38I promise you
00:28:39You do have a future
00:28:40Even if you don't have a dad
00:28:41Okay
00:28:41I hate you
00:28:48Sarah
00:28:49Don't
00:28:50Don't start
00:28:51With the you have to tell him
00:28:55Eleanor threatened to expel him from school
00:28:59She's gonna ruin him before he even has a chance to start
00:29:01To 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
00:29:09If Eleanor fights 30
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
00:29:21I mean he could lose this election
00:29:23His career could be over
00:29:25Okay
00:29:26Sarah
00:29:26This is not the 1970s
00:29:29So what if he had a kid out of wedlock
00:29:31Plenty of elected officials
00:29:33Have 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
00:29:50And no substance
00:29:51That 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
00:30:12You'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
00:30:28He's been focusing so much on the campaign
00:30:31He could use a little feminine comfort
00:30:35I wish
00:30:36That would be my dream
00:30:39I've wanted Owen for years
00:30:41Well now's the time
00:30:43Make your move
00:30:46Owen, hey, that was great
00:30:49Sure, a few places we could tighten
00:30:52Maybe we go get a drink
00:30:53Talk
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?
00:31:04Why 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
00:31:13Wow, no, I remember exactly how it ended
00:31:16And I think it's time Owen finds out exactly who ended it
00:31:24Security, we have an intruder
00:31:32Knew I'd find you here
00:31:35You always came here to clear your head
00:31:36Yeah, last I was here was a decade ago
00:31:39After you cheated on me with Joe
00:31:43I actually wanted to talk to you about that
00:31:46Wanna explain
00:31:48No, you don't have to
00:31:50You were right
00:31:50We shouldn't work together
00:31:52Too much painful history
00:31:56I mean
00:31:57It wasn't all painful
00:32:00Some of it was pretty great
00:32:06And there's something you don't know
00:32:07So tell me
00:32:09Just say it
00:32:10Sarah, he deserves to know
00:32:12And he could be a great father
00:32:16Owen, the truth is
00:32:21Owen, the truth is
00:32:23That
00:32:25That's her
00:32:26Arrest her
00:32:28Mom, what are you doing?
00:32:30She doesn't work for you anymore
00:32:32She's probably spying
00:32:34Don't forget her connection with Joe
00:32:36I would never do that
00:32:38I would never
00:32:39I actually want to
00:32:41Join your campaign
00:32:42I've decided
00:32:45All right
00:32:47Welcome back
00:32:48Owen, no
00:32:49Mom
00:32:49I wanted to run for mayor of my hometown
00:32:51To reconnect with who I am
00:32:53With what I believe in
00:32:55Sarah's an integral part of that
00:32:57I want her here
00:32:58Nobody said anything like that to me in years
00:33:01And in a minute
00:33:02He'll know everything
00:33:05Fine
00:33:05If that's what you want
00:33:08It's time for your interview
00:33:10This is the most important network
00:33:11In the country
00:33:12Let's nail it
00:33:13All right
00:33:14So you finish telling me later?
00:33:16Yeah
00:33:17You, come with me
00:33:19Tell him what?
00:33:21That would be between me and Owen
00:33:23Not your business
00:33:24That alert
00:33:26I just got
00:33:28It was a DNA test
00:33:31I know
00:33:32That Tom
00:33:34Is Owen's son
00:33:38That's right
00:33:39Your son and I
00:33:41Have a little chat yesterday
00:33:42He's really
00:33:44Very trusting
00:33:45He didn't hesitate
00:33:46When I
00:33:47Offered him a glass of water
00:33:49Giving me plenty
00:33:51Of DNA
00:33:52To work with
00:33:53You have no right
00:33:54To approach my son
00:33:55You had that child
00:33:56Behind my back
00:33:58Your back
00:33:59My body
00:34:00My choice
00:34:01Oh, cool it
00:34:02With the protest slogans
00:34:04And now listen to
00:34:05What's gonna happen here
00:34:06I will allow you
00:34:07To continue working
00:34:08For Owen
00:34:09As long as
00:34:10You never tell him
00:34:12That Tom
00:34:13Is his son
00:34:14Or anyone else
00:34:16Or what
00:34:16This time
00:34:17Hmm
00:34:18Tom is an A plus student
00:34:20Nobody's gonna
00:34:22Expel him
00:34:23Because of one of your wins
00:34:24Not this time
00:34:25Especially not
00:34:26When they all find out
00:34:27That he is the child
00:34:29Of our next mayor
00:34:31Sweetheart
00:34:32You underestimate me
00:34:34Tom is my grandchild
00:34:36I have no intention
00:34:38Of pressuring anyone
00:34:39To expel him
00:34:41Really?
00:34:42No, I'll let fate
00:34:43Do that for me
00:34:46I would, um
00:34:47Answer that
00:34:49If I were you
00:34:52Uh, Miss Holden
00:34:54Hi
00:34:54Is everything okay?
00:34:55What's wrong?
00:34:56Did something happen to Tom?
00:34:57Not to Tom
00:34:58By Tom
00:34:59He vandalized
00:35:01The school's computer lab
00:35:02Wait, sir
00:35:03What?
00:35:04That, no
00:35:05That doesn't sound like Tom
00:35:06He 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
00:35:20And thus disqualified
00:35:22For the student council elections
00:35:25No, no, no, no, no, no
00:35:26Miss Holden, please
00:35:27Look, this is just
00:35:28This is a terrible mistake
00:35:31Tom loves this school
00:35:32He loves it
00:35:33He would never do anything like that
00:35:34Parents 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
00:35:43Ex-
00:35:44Goodbye
00:35:50Another fatherless child turned to crime
00:35:53First 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
00:36:16Or are you going to open it
00:36:18And ruin Tom's life?
00:36:24Fine
00:36:27You win
00:36:29I won't say anything to Owen or to Tom
00:36:32But you have to get this little incident erased off of Tom's record
00:36:36Oh, I can't do that
00:36:39But I can have him reinstated in the student council election
00:36:44On the condition that you get out of our lives
00:36:49It's the moment this campaign ends
00:36:53Hi
00:36:59Yes, it's a lot of nuance
00:37:01It's hard to explain
00:37:01A few short soundbikes
00:37:03But it
00:37:04Yes, thank you for your time
00:37:07I hope everyone listening goes out to vote
00:37:22Hello
00:37:23You okay in there?
00:37:24Go away
00:37:25Hey, I'm sorry you're having a hard time, kid
00:37:29I can relate
00:37:31I 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
00:37:45Yeah, you know, in politics you learn a lot about lies
00:37:49Liars are weak
00:37:51And they're afraid of the truth
00:37:52You just might have been the truth for someone
00:37:55Who you running against?
00:37:57Jaden Green
00:37:58But I don't think it's him
00:38:00Yesterday, our class pet, Yerba the gerbil, bit him
00:38:04He was crying for two hours
00:38:09How does Joe Callahan have such an amazing son
00:38:13And he's not even around?
00:38:16Well, Jaden might not be the criminal mastermind, but
00:38:19You know what else I've learned?
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?
00:38:47I guess
00:38:48I do the same thing
00:38:52He couldn't be mine
00:38:54Could he?
00:38:56Tom, I heard about the computer lab
00:38:59I'm so sorry
00:39:00Are you okay?
00:39:01Where are you?
00:39:03Oh
00:39:06Holden, hi
00:39:07What are you doing here?
00:39:08Following up on your son's vandalism
00:39:10I don't know if you understand how much damage was done
00:39:14It looks even worse than your house
00:39:18Oh, oh
00:39:20Sorry, I just
00:39:21I started a new job
00:39:22And I haven't really had time to go
00:39:24I admit I was surprised to learn Tom was behind it
00:39:27He's a model student
00:39:28But now he understands
00:39:32Children often act out when they are neglected
00:39:36Neglected?
00:39:38I would never neglect Tom
00:39:40And he didn't act out
00:39:42He was framed
00:39:42Well, if you know the perpetrator
00:39:44I'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
00:39:55The evidence says otherwise
00:39:58And, uh, as the parent
00:40:00It is your responsibility
00:40:03To pay for the damages
00:40:06$20,000
00:40:08Well, I don't have that kind of money
00:40:12Miss Watson
00:40:13Your son smashed 15 laptops
00:40:17And broke three windows
00:40:18The only reason he did not get expelled
00:40:21Is because Eleanor Carter spoke on his behalf
00:40:25She's the one who did this in the first place
00:40:27And if I leave your house today without a check
00:40:31Even she can't help him
00:40:34Tom?
00:40:37Where were you?
00:40:39Wait, are you saying
00:40:41You had no idea where your son was this whole time?
00:40:44His bus should have dropped him off long ago
00:40:47I missed it
00:40:49What?
00:40:50How did you get home?
00:40:52I got a ride
00:40:52With who?
00:40:54This is far worse than I imagined
00:40:56Your son is hitchhiking?
00:40:58I'm afraid I'm going to have to report you
00:41:00To Child Protective Services
00:41:02Still strict as ever, aren't we, Miss Holden?
00:41:08Owen?
00:41:09What are you doing here?
00:41:11Get Tom, a rat
00:41:11And I'm far from a stranger, Miss Holden
00:41:13Can I go?
00:41:15I have homework
00:41:16Yes
00:41:18Owen Carter, my favorite student
00:41:20Get over here
00:41:26I can hold off on calling CPS for now
00:41:29But I still need for you to pay for the damages
00:41:32To the computer lad, Miss Watson
00:41:34Ma'am, Tom told me he didn't do it
00:41:35And I believe him
00:41:37Trust me, after working in Washington
00:41:40I know a liar when I see one
00:41:42Be that as it may
00:41:43In the absence of another culprit
00:41:46We need Miss Watson to reimburse us
00:41:49Yeah
00:41:49It's fine, I just
00:41:50I need a day to go to the bank and get a loan
00:41:52I got it
00:41:54How much?
00:41:55No, I'm not taking your money
00:41:56$20,000
00:42:00There you are
00:42:02I've got my eye on you
00:42:09That was completely inappropriate
00:42:12I told you that I'm fine on my own
00:42:14And I have been fine on my own
00:42:16Raising Tom all of these years
00:42:17Why?
00:42:18Because Joe wasn't in the picture?
00:42:21Come on, Sarah
00:42:21I don't buy that
00:42:23Whose child is Tom, really?
00:42:28Is Tom really Joe's?
00:42:30I want to tell him
00:42:32So bad
00:42:34That his mom would ruin Tom's life
00:42:38Tom
00:42:40Is
00:42:45Joe's
00:42:47And he's not in the picture
00:42:48Because I never told me
00:42:50Why not?
00:42:51Don't you think Tom should know his father?
00:42:52I agree
00:42:53He should
00:42:55But
00:42:57Joe's father
00:42:59Forced me to keep it a secret
00:43:01In order to help his career
00:43:03What an ass
00:43:04Who does that to their own grandson
00:43:06Just for a career?
00:43:07Damn, parents will do anything for their kids
00:43:10But Owen, please
00:43:11You cannot tell anybody
00:43:12It'll be a scandal
00:43:13You know I won't
00:43:14I never take the low road
00:43:17He raised an amazing boy
00:43:19I'm glad I got to meet him
00:43:21Well, I should go check on him
00:43:23He's had a hard day
00:43:24Oh, he's fine
00:43:25I already talked to him
00:43:31Thank you
00:43:33You have no idea how much that means to me
00:43:37It's just been me and Tom for so long
00:43:44No one has ever cared for us like that
00:43:48It's been a long time for me too, fairy
00:44:01Good night
00:44:17Hey
00:44:19What magic you're working today, fairy?
00:44:21We are going to explain your stance on small businesses
00:44:23Ah, yes
00:44:24The stance I haven't been able to articulate
00:44:26I know, but you will
00:44:27For right now, though
00:44:28We're gonna film a video here
00:44:30My friend Daisy works here
00:44:31All you have to do is go in
00:44:32And ask her about her salary
00:44:34That's it
00:44:34She'll answer
00:44:35It'll be gold
00:44:37Okay
00:44:38Trust you
00:44:42Something's missing
00:44:45I always carry a spare for Tom
00:44:47Just in case
00:44:48It might be a little swell on you
00:44:49But we are gonna make it work
00:45:06Where do you want me?
00:45:08Uh, inside
00:45:10We should all probably go inside
00:45:12And you can finish that
00:45:15Daisy
00:45:16If your boss raised your wages
00:45:18You think you'd work faster?
00:45:21Honestly, no
00:45:23You stupid girl
00:45:24This is a disaster
00:45:25You are ruining him
00:45:28If you were paid more
00:45:29It wouldn't motivate you to work faster
00:45:32I mean, I already work as fast as I can
00:45:34So if you were paid more
00:45:36It wouldn't increase profits here
00:45:38I didn't say that
00:45:39I would definitely make money for this place
00:45:41Okay, so tell me about that
00:45:42If you worked the same amount
00:45:44If I got paid what I was worth
00:45:47Then I would feel like my employers valued me
00:45:49And I would smile more
00:45:52Here's that classic house blend
00:45:54Just the way you like it
00:45:56Thank you
00:45:58Now, wouldn't you return to a place with service like that?
00:46:01I come back for that smile every day
00:46:05Conant!
00:46:05Oh, perfect you two
00:46:07I don't even know what to say anymore
00:46:08You saved me again
00:46:09Oh
00:46:10Good job
00:46:11I'm so proud of you
00:46:12I mean
00:46:13Good job
00:46:14He's never gonna end up with me
00:46:15As long as that stupid whore is still around
00:46:18Leave it to me
00:46:19I have friends in high places
00:46:21Like the police
00:46:24And if you do exactly as I said
00:46:27You can separate them for good
00:46:36Hey
00:46:37Really great work today
00:46:39I'll see you at the gala tonight
00:46:51Hi
00:46:52Is there a problem, officer?
00:46:54We received a report
00:46:55Of reckless driving for this vehicle
00:46:57Uh, this vehicle's been parked for hours
00:47:00I smell alcohol
00:47:01Have you been drinking, ma'am?
00:47:03No, no, absolutely not
00:47:04What's in that bag?
00:47:06Um, I don't know
00:47:07It's probably my son's
00:47:15Ma'am
00:47:16Step out of the car
00:47:17You're under arrest for drunk driving
00:47:21This is huge
00:47:23Hands down, get back
00:47:24No, the whiskey's not mine
00:47:25I promise
00:47:26And I'm LeBron James
00:47:27Everyone lies to get out of crimes
00:47:30I didn't commit a crime
00:47:32Driving with an open container isn't even a misdemeanor
00:47:34Suspect is clearly drunk
00:47:36Acting hysterical
00:47:38Resisting arrest
00:47:39So please, please just listen to me
00:47:40I have a kid at home
00:47:42And I have to get back to him
00:47:45Eleanor
00:47:46Eleanor, you've been with me all day
00:47:47Please, will you tell him that I have not been drinking?
00:47:50I'm sorry
00:47:51Do we know each other?
00:47:52Seriously?
00:47:53Look, please, please
00:47:55Just call Owen
00:47:55Come with me, ma'am
00:47:56Uh-uh
00:47:57What do you think you're doing?
00:48:01Mr. Carter
00:48:02Wow
00:48:02Is that you?
00:48:04Yes
00:48:05This woman's my employee
00:48:06Be that as it may, sir
00:48:08She had an open bottle of whiskey in the car
00:48:10Then I told you that it's not mine
00:48:12It's not mine
00:48:12And she's been very combative
00:48:14I have reason to believe she's drunk
00:48:17She's been with me all day
00:48:18If she's been drinking, I'd know
00:48:21And as for the bottle of whiskey in her car
00:48:23It's not hers
00:48:24Release her
00:48:27Now
00:48:28Or I'll call your commander
00:48:30Officer Jacobs is a good friend of mine
00:48:31He'd love to hear the way you're abusing your power
00:48:34Well, you can vouch for her
00:48:43I see you for me
00:48:49She'll be calling you my bear
00:48:50Magic happens when we're together
00:48:52Why did you come back?
00:48:55Thought Tom might need his tie
00:48:57And I wanted to ask you a favor
00:49:00After that?
00:49:00Yeah, sure
00:49:01Anything
00:49:02Be my date tonight
00:49:06That sounds
00:49:08Probably not a good look for a
00:49:11Candidate to be dating a staffer
00:49:13Well, it didn't mean romantically
00:49:14It's a campaign event
00:49:16Oh
00:49:17We need to plan my speech for election night
00:49:20And you've just been working so hard
00:49:22I think you deserve a night off
00:49:24Well, in that case
00:49:25How can I say no?
00:49:29Senator Whitmore
00:49:30Thank you again for coming
00:49:32It means the world
00:49:33When you call, I always come
00:49:35Oh, and here's the man of the hour
00:49:43And who is that fine young lady
00:49:45Has his arm around
00:49:47Oh, that's just some little slut
00:49:50You can have her if you like
00:49:51Now, Mrs. Carter
00:49:53I bristle at the very suggestion
00:49:54I'm a man of great ethics and dignity
00:49:58Senator Whitmore
00:49:59Didn't know you'd be here
00:50:00It's an honor
00:50:02I have wonderful news
00:50:04Because I'm always looking out for my son
00:50:06I have managed to convince the senator
00:50:08To be your political advisor
00:50:10For the rest of the campaign
00:50:15But the election's tomorrow
00:50:16Son, I can tell you from my experience
00:50:18The only hours that matter to manage campaign
00:50:20Are the last 24
00:50:22So let's finish strong
00:50:24I really appreciate the offer
00:50:26And I'm really grateful for your support
00:50:27But I already have an advisor
00:50:30I'd like you to meet Sarah Watson
00:50:32It is my deep pleasure to meet you
00:50:38Sarah's been absolutely integral to this campaign
00:50:42My poll numbers just keep jumping up because of her
00:50:44If I win tomorrow
00:50:45It's gonna be her fault, not mine
00:50:48Well, if you'll all excuse me
00:50:50I gotta go give a speech
00:50:51Oh, and didn't mean to refuse your wise counsel
00:50:55He's just very loyal
00:50:59You and Sarah can work together
00:51:03I like the sound of that
00:51:11Tomorrow's the big day
00:51:13And we couldn't have gotten here
00:51:15Without all your hard work and dedication
00:51:16So, to sum up the journey we've all been on together
00:51:21My brilliant advisor
00:51:23My fairy, Sarah
00:51:25Has prepared a little presentation for us
00:51:31Don't worry
00:51:33Her world is about to completely fall apart
00:51:53Great advisor
00:51:55For swimsuits
00:51:57I'd let her advise me on every position
00:52:05Shut it down
00:52:06Shut it down
00:52:10I'm gonna find who did this stupid prank
00:52:12Until then
00:52:13I want you all to know
00:52:14That that woman you just laughed at
00:52:16Is the most talented, hardworking woman I've ever met
00:52:18She's a single mom who works day in and day out for her son
00:52:22Not for money, not for recognition, but for love
00:52:25And beyond that, she's helped me recognize my purpose
00:52:29And that is to bring a better life to the people of this city
00:52:35So my advice to all of you is don't laugh at Sarah
00:52:40Be Sarah
00:52:45That bitch has nine lives
00:52:50He's right, you know
00:52:53You made it
00:52:55Of course, I wouldn't miss her
00:52:58And I've decided to be an influencer
00:53:00And being seen around Owen will rake in the followers
00:53:03So thank you
00:53:05Excellent job
00:53:06Really nice
00:53:07Really nice
00:53:08Wow
00:53:08No one has ever stood up for me like that
00:53:13He's incredible
00:53:20The speech needed work
00:53:23But the picture
00:53:25Was perfect
00:53:28Easy
00:53:28No need to make a scene, young lady
00:53:31We're only talking
00:53:32Senator
00:53:32I think you've had a little bit too much to drink
00:53:35So let me go and get you some water
00:53:37No, no
00:53:37Don't walk away from the one man
00:53:39That can actually do something for your future
00:53:41Excellent job
00:53:42In return, you can do a little something
00:53:44For me
00:53:51You're gonna enjoy this
00:53:55I see
00:53:55A little quid pro quo, huh?
00:53:58Let's see if you can take it as well as you give it
00:54:02Don't you dare touch her
00:54:03Come on, Carter
00:54:05What's the point of being a politician
00:54:06If you can't enjoy the power?
00:54:08Now step aside
00:54:09And let me enjoy
00:54:12You apologize to her
00:54:42Can't get the hell out of here
00:54:43He does not remember this in the morning
00:54:48Can I see your hand?
00:54:52Ooh
00:54:55Now look at it, Senator's gonna be sleeping it off for a while
00:55:00I'm just
00:55:03You know, when we were escaping from the gym
00:55:06It kind of reminded me of when we used to
00:55:09Sneak out of the assemblies
00:55:11Yeah
00:55:12Come right here to this room
00:55:15I told my mom we had homework
00:55:18Homework's the last thing we did
00:55:20Yeah, the only thing I seem to remember studying was
00:55:23You
00:55:39Hi, honey
00:55:40How was your leadership conference?
00:55:43Okay, yeah, yeah
00:55:44Aunt Daisy's gonna be with you tonight
00:55:45I'm gonna be home
00:55:46Late
00:55:47So, yeah, yeah
00:55:48We'll practice your speech in the morning
00:55:49I love you
00:55:52You're amazing, you know that?
00:55:55The way you raise such a sweet, successful kid
00:55:57All on your own
00:55:59Uh, we should probably
00:56:01Wash this off before you bandage it
00:56:03About that
00:56:05I haven't been able to get a plumber in here
00:56:08The only running water I've got is in the tub
00:56:12Uh, this one?
00:56:16Hey
00:56:17Handy
00:56:21Is it broken?
00:56:23Nah, the water just takes a second
00:56:30Well
00:56:32I'm all wet now
00:56:33You're all wet now, huh?
00:56:34Whatever
00:56:35Okay, just come in here and I'll wash your hands
00:56:37Wait
00:56:39You're gonna get me all wet
00:56:40I would never
00:56:42Got my eye on you
00:56:44Just get over here
00:56:51Great, you leave
00:57:06You
00:57:30What do you say, Gary?
00:57:47I never forgot your smell
00:58:00The sound of your laugh
00:58:10I never forgot you, Sarah
00:58:21Don't move
00:58:22Don't move
00:58:23You look perfect in this light
00:58:27Good morning
00:58:28Good morning
00:58:30Good morning
00:58:35I missed you
00:58:36I missed you too
00:58:39But
00:58:41Owen, this scares me
00:58:42What, the campaign?
00:58:44My mom?
00:58:46Look, Sarah, we're gonna figure this out
00:58:48No one can defeat us when we're together
00:58:51I'm here to stay
00:58:53I have to tell you
00:58:54I have to tell him
00:58:54He's Tom's father
00:58:55And I have to tell him right now
00:58:58Owen
00:59:00I've been keeping a secret from you
00:59:03And when I tell you
00:59:06I don't know if he'll ever be able to forgive me
00:59:11There's nothing you could say that would change the way I feel about you
00:59:17Tom
00:59:20Is
00:59:21Owen, are you in there?
00:59:23Oh my God, that's your mom
00:59:24Um, I'll hide
00:59:26No
00:59:27We're together now
00:59:28We have nothing to hide
00:59:32I should have known
00:59:33Mom, I'm a grown man
00:59:35Yes
00:59:35And I don't have time to deal with this
00:59:38And
00:59:39I am guessing this means you haven't had time to see the news yet
00:59:49You assaulted the senator on the night before election day?
00:59:54The man is a state hero
00:59:56Do you want to lose?
00:59:58He tried to assault Sarah
00:59:59Oh, why am I not surprised?
01:00:02You've been bad luck to my son his whole life
01:00:04None of this is Sarah's fault
01:00:06She does nothing but cause damage
01:00:08Who knows what other secrets she might have that could ruin your life?
01:00:12Sarah didn't cause any of this
01:00:14Owen
01:00:17Your mom's right
01:00:20What are you talking about?
01:00:22You've only ever made my life better
01:00:23Even when she cheated on you with Joe Callahan
01:00:27Mom, that was years ago
01:00:29I don't want to cause you any more trouble
01:00:33You need to distance yourself from me
01:00:35So
01:00:37I'm resigning as your advisor
01:00:40Sarah
01:00:41Excellent
01:00:41So we'll issue a denial
01:00:43Claim it's a fake video put out by your rivals
01:00:47Liars are people who are afraid of the truth
01:00:50That's not me
01:00:51Owen, think of your political life
01:00:54I don't want that life if I can't have my integrity
01:00:56Where are you going?
01:00:58Do something I should have done a long time ago
01:01:01Talk to Joe Callahan
01:01:05You tell me, huh?
01:01:08Where the hell have you been?
01:01:10It's election day
01:01:11I need to shut down a food bank and get to the polls
01:01:17What the fuck, Carter?
01:01:18You here to beat me up like you did to Senator Whitmore?
01:01:21He deserved it
01:01:21Whatever the reason
01:01:22That's the best thing that could have happened to me
01:01:25You just handed me this election on a silver platter
01:01:27He sexually assaulted Sarah Watson
01:01:30You remember Sarah
01:01:31You two hooked up in high school when she was still with me
01:01:34So were you just here for revenge?
01:01:36By another casualty of your mental breakdown?
01:01:39Look, I want you to issue a joint statement with me against the Senator
01:01:42Now write
01:01:43No, I'm writing this into the Mayor's office
01:01:46I mean, there are so many corporations in my pocket
01:01:49And I'm cashing in
01:01:51Do the right thing for once, Joe
01:01:54Sarah's the mother of your child
01:01:57What the fuck are you talking about, Carter?
01:01:59I never slept with Sarah
01:02:01So Joe isn't Tom's father
01:02:05You never slept with Sarah?
01:02:06No, Sarah came on to me that one time
01:02:09Kissed me
01:02:10You saw us
01:02:11Then she disappeared
01:02:13That's it
01:02:18Where the fuck's my driver?
01:02:22Hey, Tom
01:02:23Daisy, where are y'all?
01:02:26Okay, hi
01:02:26I'm not in the mood for jokes
01:02:28Where are you guys?
01:02:29Tom, Daisy
01:02:29You can't find your son
01:02:32Miss Holden?
01:02:33Uh
01:02:34Sorry, what are you doing here again?
01:02:36I received an anonymous tip
01:02:38That Tom was left alone last night
01:02:41As his principal
01:02:42I came over right away to check
01:02:44And to see if I need to call CPS
01:02:48Okay
01:02:49There's been a huge misunderstanding
01:02:50My friends stayed with Tom last night
01:02:52So they're just probably out getting breakfast or something right now
01:02:55Sarah
01:02:55I'm so sorry
01:02:57I got locked in the bathroom at the gala
01:02:58And then my phone died
01:02:59I just
01:03:00Look, sir
01:03:00Are you saying you didn't make it here last night?
01:03:03No
01:03:06Where is Tom?
01:03:09Tom?
01:03:10Tom, please
01:03:10Please, where are you?
01:03:11Your babysitter never arrived to take care of your son
01:03:15And now he's missing?
01:03:16Listen, this is very serious
01:03:18Miss Holden
01:03:18If you care about Tom at all
01:03:21I need you to help me look for him
01:03:23I will help Tom
01:03:24By calling the police
01:03:26And having you arrested
01:03:27What?
01:03:28Tom needs to be placed in a safe home
01:03:31And between your bikini photos
01:03:33At the campaign headquarters
01:03:35And the video of you
01:03:37Agging Owen Carter on
01:03:39To hit our senator
01:03:40You belong in prison
01:03:43I don't have time for this bullshit right now
01:03:46I need to find my son
01:03:54Oh my god
01:03:55I was just at HQ
01:03:56And I overheard someone saying that they saw your son
01:03:59He's down by the river with some older man
01:04:05Mom
01:04:06I'm fine
01:04:09Hi
01:04:10Oh my god
01:04:12I was so worried
01:04:13Hi
01:04:13Thank you
01:04:15Where were you?
01:04:16When I woke up
01:04:17You weren't here
01:04:18And neither was Daisy
01:04:19So I went to the cafe
01:04:21To look for you
01:04:22And Owen found me
01:04:24I've heard enough
01:04:26Mr. Carter can't save you this time
01:04:29Your child could have been killed
01:04:31While you were off doing God knows what
01:04:34It wasn't her fault
01:04:35Somebody locked me in the bathroom
01:04:42You
01:04:43You
01:04:44You did this
01:04:44You locked Daisy in that bathroom
01:04:47Probably on Eleanor's orders
01:04:49I'm willing to bet that you're also the one that made that call to Miss Holden
01:04:54You know what?
01:04:56You mess with me
01:04:57Fine
01:04:58I can handle it
01:05:01But you crossed a line
01:05:03Trying to get my son taken away from me
01:05:06I will kill you
01:05:07I'm gonna kill her
01:05:08Hey
01:05:10She's not worth it
01:05:12Brittany
01:05:13You can see yourself out now
01:05:15Owen, I
01:05:15I can explain
01:05:16I was just trying to do this
01:05:17Owen, please
01:05:18You're fired
01:05:20After everything I've done
01:05:27I'll add assault to the list of things I need to report to the police and CPS
01:05:33Poor Tom has no stable adult presence in his life
01:05:38But I do
01:05:39Owen Carter is my father
01:05:43Owen Carter is your father
01:05:45Of course
01:05:46Isn't that right?
01:05:48Dad?
01:05:50Yes
01:05:51He's my son
01:05:56Can't you see we look alike?
01:05:58I've known you a long time, Mr. Carter
01:06:01You've never mentioned any children
01:06:03Well, we didn't want it to get out
01:06:05We were young and unmarried
01:06:07And thought it might scare off the voters
01:06:09But Tom is my son
01:06:11If Tom has a stable parental figure in his life
01:06:16Then I don't have to call the authorities
01:06:21I'm sorry
01:06:22I'm sorry
01:06:23I really was only trying to help Tom
01:06:31Now, does anyone have a charger?
01:06:34I need to upload my videos
01:06:35The public is waiting
01:06:37Sure, Aunt Daisy
01:06:46Thank you for saving us again
01:06:51Well, it was all thanks to this little guy
01:06:53Concocting that story that I'm his father
01:06:56The resourcefulness of a true politician
01:06:59How'd you come up with that brilliant story?
01:07:01I told you
01:07:02It's in my blood
01:07:05Should I tell Owen now
01:07:07That he's Tom's father?
01:07:15Owen
01:07:18Meet your son
01:07:20Tom
01:07:22Tom
01:07:24Owen Carter is your dad
01:07:27For real
01:07:30Tom?
01:07:31Tom's my son?
01:07:32You're my dad?
01:07:34No way
01:07:35Way
01:07:36Long way
01:07:37But
01:07:37Way
01:07:40Dad
01:07:42I can't believe it
01:07:45You know, it's strange
01:07:47But I think I can believe it
01:07:49You can't?
01:07:54Yeah, I, uh
01:07:56Talked to Joe
01:07:57He said you two never
01:07:59Yeah
01:07:59You know
01:08:02Oh, and listen
01:08:03I'm really sorry
01:08:06But I lied to you
01:08:07I just
01:08:09I thought this would ruin your career
01:08:10And your mom had promised me
01:08:12That it would
01:08:15She forced me to break up with you
01:08:19And she gave me money for an abortion
01:08:21She what?
01:08:22I know
01:08:22But it's not an excuse
01:08:23I know that it's not an excuse
01:08:25I am so sorry
01:08:27You had a right to all of those years with your son
01:08:29Hey, people
01:08:30Let bygones be bygones
01:08:34So, are you and mom
01:08:37Boyfriend and girlfriend?
01:08:39Well, I don't know
01:08:43Are we?
01:08:48Why can't you just say yes?
01:08:51I lied to you
01:08:53I don't know how to come back from that
01:08:55I can fix this
01:08:56Like a politician
01:08:59Dad
01:08:59Do you love mom?
01:09:03I do
01:09:05I don't want to be with her
01:09:07The future mayor has stated his position
01:09:09Your rebuttal?
01:09:11My rebuttal
01:09:22Is that?
01:09:23The ring you were going to propose to me with in high school?
01:09:26You kept it
01:09:27I had hoped for so long
01:09:30That this moment would come
01:09:32And it has
01:09:37Sarah Watson
01:09:39Will you marry me?
01:09:43Yes
01:09:45Owen, it's always been you
01:09:50We're going to be a family?
01:09:53I'm the mayor's son
01:09:56Oh my god, the election
01:09:58Joe's video
01:09:59We never made a rebuttal
01:10:00What do we do?
01:10:01The only thing we can do
01:10:04Lose
01:10:06No, no, no, no, no
01:10:07You can still win this
01:10:08Nah, the polls are open
01:10:09Joe's going to win
01:10:10No, no
01:10:11I will
01:10:11I'll go
01:10:12I will give an interview
01:10:13I'll tell everybody what happened
01:10:14You were just protecting me
01:10:15Too little, too late
01:10:17It's your word against the senators
01:10:18But you said the truth always wins
01:10:20Hey
01:10:24And the truth did win today
01:10:25The only truth that matters
01:10:28That you're my son
01:10:30We're going to go to HQ
01:10:31With our heads held high
01:10:32We're going to say thank you
01:10:33To the volunteers and staffers
01:10:36And we're going to move right on
01:10:37To the next election
01:10:39Because that's what we do
01:10:40I'm sorry
01:10:45You guys
01:10:47My video is blowing up
01:10:49I mean, I guess I did look good in that dress
01:10:52Whoa
01:10:53Did I miss something?
01:10:59Where the hell is Owen?
01:11:03How dare you walk in here with my son
01:11:06After you cost him the election
01:11:07Mother
01:11:09Meet your grandson
01:11:11My son
01:11:12The one you tried to have aborted
01:11:16You forced Sarah
01:11:17To hide him from me
01:11:18For all these years
01:11:21Convinced her to break my heart
01:11:23And then you tried to have him expelled
01:11:25How could you?
01:11:25I did it for you
01:11:27So you could go to a prestigious college
01:11:30And go to DC
01:11:30And live your dreams
01:11:33Without me
01:11:35You'd be a plumber right now
01:11:36If it would give me back
01:11:38Ten years with my son
01:11:40I would gladly be a plumber
01:11:42Well, you might get your wish
01:11:44Since you punched
01:11:45Senator Whitmore
01:11:46You're certain to lose the race
01:11:48That's what you care about?
01:11:51Just go
01:11:52I can't even look at you
01:11:54Owen
01:11:55You know, mother
01:11:58I'm not gonna lose this race
01:11:59Because I'm gonna withdraw from it
01:12:01To focus on the important things
01:12:15It doesn't make any sense
01:12:16I've gotten a million views
01:12:18In just two hours
01:12:19What?
01:12:20Yes
01:12:20Let me see
01:12:25Dear friends
01:12:27I'm so grateful
01:12:28For all the hard work
01:12:29You've put into this campaign
01:12:30But, uh
01:12:31I regret to inform you
01:12:33That due to personal circumstances
01:12:35I'm
01:12:36Withdrawing my candidacy for mayor
01:12:40No!
01:12:41No!
01:12:41No, no, no

01:14:20All I ever wanted
01:14:21Was for you to be happy
01:14:24I went about it the wrong way
01:14:26But it never
01:14:28I never meant to hurt you
01:14:30I'm so
01:14:32So sorry
01:14:34You are my life
01:14:39Please
01:14:40Forgive me
01:14:45Hey
01:14:49You don't owe my mother anything
01:14:51No
01:14:53But
01:14:55You'll find this out soon enough
01:14:58When you become a parent
01:15:01Your entire world
01:15:02Becomes about that child
01:15:04And I know what it's like
01:15:06To not see straight
01:15:07Trying to protect them
01:15:10And you're gonna make plenty of mistakes too
01:15:12Trust me
01:15:15You should forgive her
01:15:32Now

01:15:48We're renovating right now
01:15:49We?
01:15:50You mean I get a say in the design?
01:15:53You have much more important things to worry about, Mr. Mayor
01:15:56Mm-hmm
01:15:59Congratulations, the merry list
01:16:02One small question that interests our readers
01:16:05Is it hard for you to work together
01:16:08Live together
01:16:10And raise a child together?
01:16:11Well, we have one rule at home
01:16:13Whatever the argument
01:16:14No matter who says what
01:16:16The truth always wins in the end
01:16:18And who decides what the truth is?
01:16:21Me
01:16:22Kh tú
01:16:25Yeah
01:16:35We, we have two
