00:00:00Who the hell are you?
00:00:01Why are you touching my grandma?
00:00:03Your grandma?
00:00:04Relax.
00:00:05Rich girls have too much stuff anyway.
00:00:07Looks like I came home just in time.
00:00:18Vivian?
00:00:19Baby, you're home!
00:00:21I missed you, Grandma.
00:00:23You should have called.
00:00:24I would have made your favorite suit.
00:00:25Who the hell are you?
00:00:28Why are you touching my grandma?
00:00:31Your grandma?
00:00:34Chloe, this is Vivian, my granddaughter.
00:00:37Granddaughter?
00:00:38Funny.
00:00:38I've lived here for a year and I've never heard of you.
00:00:40She lives here?
00:00:41Her mother is Linda, the housekeeper.
00:00:44Chloe's dorm had some trouble, so I let her stay for a few days.
00:00:47A few days?
00:00:48It became long.
00:00:49That bag is mine.
00:00:50Relax.
00:00:51Rich girls have too much stuff anyway.
00:00:53I'm just putting it to use.
00:00:54Put it down.
00:00:54You walk around my house, wear my clothes, touch my things, and ask who I am?
00:00:58Your house?
00:00:59I don't see you living here.
00:01:01You're right.
00:01:02I've been away too long.
00:01:03Long enough for a stranger to forget she's a guest.
00:01:05Guest?
00:01:06I belong here more than you do.
00:01:08Then prove it.
00:01:09Excuse me?
00:01:10Show me one document with your name on this house.
00:01:16Miss Vivian?
00:01:17You're back?
00:01:19Looks like I came home just in time.
00:01:21You're very good at starting fires while pretending to put them out.
00:01:24My mom worked for this family for years.
00:01:26She deserves respect.
00:01:27Respect.
00:01:27Miss Vivian, you should have told me you were coming.
00:01:30I would have prepared everything.
00:01:31Prepared what?
00:01:32There's no dinner.
00:01:33I was just about to cook.
00:01:35This fridge looks like no one has bought groceries in weeks.
00:01:37It's fine, honey.
00:01:38I wasn't very hungry.
00:01:39Grandma, you don't have to protect people who hurt you.
00:01:42Don't talk to my mom like that.
00:01:43Your mother is paid to take care of this house and my grandmother.
00:01:46Paid?
00:01:47You mean bought?
00:01:48$30,000 a month is not slavery.
00:01:50That's nothing to people like you.
00:01:51Then she's free to quit.
00:01:53Chloe, stop.
00:01:54We're just the help.
00:01:55We should know our place.
00:01:56See?
00:01:58This is what rich people do.
00:01:59They make good people feel small.
00:02:00You're very good at starting fires while pretending to put them out.
00:02:03My mom worked for this family for years.
00:02:05She deserves respect.
00:02:06Respect is earned.
00:02:07Access is granted.
00:02:08And both can be taken away.
00:02:10You have until tomorrow morning to leave.
00:02:11Vivian, maybe we can talk about this.
00:02:13I am talking, Grandma.
00:02:15I'm just done begging.
00:02:16You can't just throw me out!
00:02:18I can.
00:02:20I am.
00:02:21You think a deed makes this your home?
00:02:23It does.
00:02:24Not if the people inside choose someone else.
00:02:27Grandma?
00:02:28What did she mean?
00:02:30She's tired.
00:02:31Let her rest.
00:02:36I wasn't asking you.
00:02:38My mom is not your servant!
00:02:40Then she can stop acting like the owner.
00:02:42Why didn't Linda call your doctor?
00:02:44It's just old bones.
00:02:48You always say that when something is wrong.
00:02:56Why is your bedroom locked?
00:02:58Maybe Linda cleaned it.
00:03:00Grandma.
00:03:00Don't bother.
00:03:01That room's taken.
00:03:02Taken by who?
00:03:03My mom.
00:03:05Your mother sleeps in my grandmother's room?
00:03:08Your grandmother doesn't need that huge room.
00:03:09She barely walks.
00:03:10Where does she sleep?
00:03:11Downstairs.
00:03:12It's quiet.
00:03:13She likes it.
00:03:18You made her sleep here?
00:03:20Don't be dramatic.
00:03:21It's still inside the mansion.
00:03:22Say one more word.
00:03:24Miss Vivian.
00:03:25Mrs. Winters wanted this room.
00:03:27She said it felt safer.
00:03:28Is that true?
00:03:29Silence is not consent.
00:03:31I have taken care of her for years.
00:03:32I know what she needs better than you.
00:03:34Exactly.
00:03:35Where were you?
00:03:36Board rooms?
00:03:37Private jets?
00:03:38Fancy hotels?
00:03:39We were here.
00:03:39We were her family.
00:03:41No.
00:03:42You were employees.
00:03:43My mom is not your servant.
00:03:45Then she can stop acting like the owner.
00:03:49Who is in my grandmother's bedroom?
00:03:51Miss Vivian.
00:03:51Don't go up there.
00:03:53Move.
00:03:53You don't get to storm around like you own everything.
00:03:55I do own everything.
00:03:57Come back to bed, Linda.
00:03:58She gave it to me.
00:03:59I never did.
00:04:00Say that again.
00:04:01Give it back!
00:04:02That's mine!
00:04:03Miss Vivian, please.
00:04:05This is private.
00:04:06In my grandmother's bedroom?
00:04:07You're humiliating my mom!
00:04:10She did that herself.
00:04:16What the hell?
00:04:17Who's this one?
00:04:26You turned her room into a motel?
00:04:30Pretty mouth.
00:04:31Bad attitude.
00:04:32Marcus.
00:04:33Get your hands off me!
00:04:35Gladly.
00:04:35Outside.
00:04:36Miss Vivian, I made one mistake.
00:04:38Don't ruin me over this.
00:04:39This room belonged to my grandmother.
00:04:41My family photos were here,
00:04:44and you brought a man into her bed.
00:04:46I have needs, too.
00:04:47I'm not dead.
00:04:47Then get a hotel.
00:04:48My mom works day and night for your family.
00:04:50She deserves comfort.
00:04:51Comfort is a room.
00:04:52This is theft.
00:04:55Linda.
00:04:56That necklace.
00:04:58You said it was missing.
00:05:00Take your hand off it.
00:05:01It's mine.
00:05:02No.
00:05:03My mother had it made for Grandma's birthday.
00:05:05She gave it to me.
00:05:06I never did.
00:05:08Say that again.
00:05:08Give it back!
00:05:09That's mine!
00:05:10Good.
00:05:11Say it exactly like that when the police get here.
00:05:14You wouldn't dare.
00:05:16Watch me.
00:05:17Linda said the old lady was giving her the house anyway.
00:05:20Ray, shut up!
00:05:21House?
00:05:22Give me that!
00:05:23Bad idea.
00:05:24You can't call the cops on my mom!
00:05:26She saved your grandmother's life!
00:05:28What did you say?
00:05:29Years ago, Mrs. Winters collapsed.
00:05:30I found her.
00:05:31I saved her.
00:05:32I...
00:05:33I remember waking up.
00:05:35Linda was there.
00:05:36Years ago, Mrs. Winters collapsed.
00:05:38I found her.
00:05:39I saved her!
00:05:41I...
00:05:41I remember waking up.
00:05:44Linda was there.
00:05:45So yes, maybe we stayed.
00:05:46Maybe we used a few rooms, but your family owes us.
00:05:49Grandma, did you ask Linda to take your room?
00:05:54Did you give Chloe my bedroom?
00:05:56She was lonely.
00:05:57We became her family while you were gone.
00:05:59You don't get to disappear for years and come back acting like a hero.
00:06:02Vivian, don't be angry.
00:06:04I didn't want to bother you.
00:06:06You are never a bother to me.
00:06:08Can we wrap this up?
00:06:10Linda said the old lady was giving her the house anyway.
00:06:13Ray, shut up!
00:06:14The house?
00:06:15Grandma promised to thank my mom.
00:06:17This mansion has dozens of rooms.
00:06:18Why should it all go to you?
00:06:19Because her name is not on the deed.
00:06:21She earned it!
00:06:22By stealing jewelry?
00:06:23By sleeping in my grandma's bed?
00:06:24By putting a 76-year-old woman in a damp room downstairs?
00:06:28Remove them.
00:06:28All of them.
00:06:29Miss Vivian, you can't do this!
00:06:30I just did.
00:06:32This is my home!
00:06:33No, Chloe.
00:06:34This is the house you pretended to own.
00:06:37You'll regret humiliating us.
00:06:39Everyone loves a poor woman with a sad story, Miss Vivian.
00:06:42That's not true.
00:06:44It's true enough to hurt.
00:06:46My mom saved that old woman's life.
00:06:49And tonight, her billionaire granddaughter threw us out like trash.
00:06:58Vivian, maybe I should talk to them.
00:07:00No, they don't want to talk.
00:07:02They want to stage.
00:07:03I never asked for anything.
00:07:05I only wanted to care for Mrs. Winters.
00:07:07We had nowhere to go.
00:07:08She knows that.
00:07:09She forgot to mention the master bedroom.
00:07:11They're getting traction.
00:07:12Local pages are reposting it.
00:07:13Save the live stream.
00:07:14Every second.
00:07:15Already recording.
00:07:16Linda did find me that day.
00:07:17I woke up and she was there.
00:07:20What happened before you woke up?
00:07:22I don't know.
00:07:24It's all blurry.
00:07:25Vivian Winters doesn't care about family.
00:07:28She left her grandma alone.
00:07:29That's not true.
00:07:30It's true enough to hurt.
00:07:32I never blamed you.
00:07:34I blamed myself.
00:07:36But guilt doesn't give thieves a deed.
00:07:38I know.
00:07:39If anything happens to my mom tonight, Vivian Winters is responsible.
00:07:43I can't breathe.
00:07:44She's faking it.
00:07:45Then let's make sure the hospital documents that too.
00:07:49Send an ambulance to Winters' mansion.
00:07:51A woman outside claims she can't breathe.
00:07:53Mom!
00:07:55Mom!
00:07:55Mom!
00:07:56Why are they sending an ambulance?
00:07:58After everything I did for your grandmother!
00:08:01Then you won't mind if I verify it.
00:08:10Ma'am, you said you couldn't breathe?
00:08:12I...
00:08:13I feel better now.
00:08:16My mom is traumatized!
00:08:17Stop attacking her!
00:08:18Keep recording.
00:08:19Every angle.
00:08:22You made us look like liars!
00:08:23No, Chloe.
00:08:24I gave you medical attention.
00:08:26Your mother gave us acting.
00:08:27After everything I did for your grandmother!
00:08:30Then you won't mind if I verify it.
00:08:32The day you saved her.
00:08:33Date, hospital, report, doctor's name.
00:08:36It was years ago!
00:08:37Who remembers details?
00:08:37Someone who saved a life usually remembers.
00:08:40I remember the floor.
00:08:42What floor?
00:08:43Cold marble.
00:08:44Something broke.
00:08:46I was angry.
00:08:47Grandma, were you arguing with Linna?
00:08:49I don't know.
00:08:50I saw her hand.
00:08:52Maybe a necklace?
00:08:57Marcus, pull the oldest security backups.
00:09:00I checked the system.
00:09:01Three months were deleted.
00:09:02Deleted by who?
00:09:03The files are gone.
00:09:04Someone using Linna's staff access.
00:09:07Recover it.
00:09:08I'll try.
00:09:09But if it was overwritten...
00:09:10Try harder.
00:09:11Vivian, I remember being scared.
00:09:14Of what?
00:09:15Of Linna.
00:09:18And putting my 76-year-old grandmother in a damp servant room.
00:09:23She's lying!
00:09:24We slept outside because Vivian Winkles threw us out with nowhere to go.
00:09:30I only hope Mrs. Wins is okay without me.
00:09:36Good.
00:09:37You're already packed.
00:09:39Say that again.
00:09:40Let everyone hear how heartless you are.
00:09:42They were asked to leave after stealing jewelry, occupying private rooms, and putting my 76-year-old grandmother in a
00:09:50damp servant room.
00:09:51She's lying!
00:09:54This is where my grandmother slept.
00:09:55This is where Linda slept.
00:09:56This is the necklace she said was hers.
00:09:58You can't just ruin our lives!
00:09:59You built your life inside someone else's house.
00:10:03Linda, maybe it's better if you go.
00:10:05This is Wintance.
00:10:07After all these years...
00:10:08No more guilt games.
00:10:09You think she'll be safe with you?
00:10:10You're never here.
00:10:11Then I'll change that.
00:10:12People like you don't change.
00:10:14You outsource love.
00:10:15And people like you mistake kindness for ownership.
00:10:17Restraining notice draft from Mr. Blackwood.
00:10:19Ready to send.
00:10:19Blackwood?
00:10:21Mrs. Carter, step away from the gate.
00:10:23Who are you?
00:10:23Her lawyer.
00:10:24And the man who knows exactly who owns this house.
00:10:27Mrs. Winters, please.
00:10:28Just one night.
00:10:29After everything I did for you, don't make us sleep on the street.
00:10:31Vivian, maybe just tonight.
00:10:33One night.
00:10:33Please.
00:10:34Then they leave in the morning.
00:10:35Grandma, fine.
00:10:36You stay in the guest cottage.
00:10:37Not in house.
00:10:38Not near my grandmother.
00:10:39By 8 a.m., you leave the property.
00:10:40If you don't, the police remove you.
00:10:43Thank you, Mrs. Winters.
00:10:45You won't regret this.
00:10:46Don't make me.
00:10:50By morning, she'll be the one locked out.
00:10:53Chloe has rules?
00:10:54She made rules for you in your house?
00:10:59Watch the guest cottage.
00:11:00They leave by 8.
00:11:01Understood.
00:11:03The doctor was kind.
00:11:06You're getting a full-time nurse.
00:11:08A real one.
00:11:09No, it's...
00:11:16Vivian.
00:11:17They're inside.
00:11:21The guest cottage is empty.
00:11:23Their bags are gone.
00:11:24And the main lock?
00:11:25Changed.
00:11:26Someone called a locksmith under Chloe Carter's name.
00:11:28Call the police.
00:11:29And get Adrian here.
00:11:30Maybe we shouldn't make it bigger.
00:11:32Grandma, they promised to leave.
00:11:33Instead, they broke back into your home and changed the locks.
00:11:36Chloe has rules.
00:11:37If I came back after...
00:11:38Chloe has rules?
00:11:39She made rules for you in your house?
00:11:44Some people need boundaries.
00:11:46House rule.
00:11:47If you're not back by 7, you don't come in.
00:11:50Open the door.
00:11:51Say please.
00:11:53Marcus.
00:11:55Hey!
00:11:56You can't break in!
00:11:57You can't break into what you own.
00:12:01Miss Chloe?
00:12:02You're late.
00:12:03Miss Chloe doesn't like noise after dinner.
00:12:05And who hired you?
00:12:05Miss Chloe, of course.
00:12:07Welcome back, Vivian.
00:12:08Meet my staff.
00:12:09You called the police?
00:12:10No, Chloe.
00:12:12I called my lawyer.
00:12:19I didn't invite anyone.
00:12:20I know.
00:12:20Here.
00:12:21For the old lady.
00:12:23Take it back.
00:12:24She never complained before.
00:12:26Because she was scared.
00:12:27I'm not.
00:12:29Miss Chloe, everything is ready.
00:12:31Good.
00:12:32My guests will be here soon.
00:12:34Guests?
00:12:34I'm hosting a small dinner.
00:12:36This house has been dead for years.
00:12:38I'm bringing it back to life.
00:12:39Chloe, you promised you would leave this morning.
00:12:41And you promised my mom gratitude.
00:12:43Gratitude is not a house key.
00:12:45You can't just throw people out because you're rich.
00:12:47Who hired you?
00:12:48Miss Chloe.
00:12:49She promised triple pay.
00:12:50Then she can pay you outside.
00:12:52Don't listen to her.
00:12:53She doesn't even live here.
00:12:54Adrian, I need you on speaker.
00:12:55Good evening, everyone.
00:12:56This is Adrian Blackwood, legal counsel for the Winters Trust.
00:12:59Anyone inside the property without written authorization from Vivian Winters is trespassing.
00:13:03If you were hired by Chloe Carter, she is personally responsible for your wages.
00:13:06Stop looking at me!
00:13:08You called the police?
00:13:09No, Chloe.
00:13:11I called my lawyer.
00:13:13The neighbors called the police after you changed my locks.
00:13:15Who owns this residence?
00:13:16I do.
00:13:17And I have the deed to prove it.
00:13:18A piece of paper doesn't make this your home.
00:13:20It does when it's recorded with Los Angeles County.
00:13:22You had one night.
00:13:23You used it to break in.
00:13:24You'll never make people hate me.
00:13:25I know how to tell a sad story.
00:13:27Tomorrow at noon, billionaire heiress evicts the mad who saved her grandma.
00:13:29Good.
00:13:30Make sure the cameras are rolling when I prove you're lying.
00:13:32Mrs. Winters, please tell them.
00:13:34You promised I'd always have a place here.
00:13:38Officers, thank God you're here.
00:13:39This woman broke into our family dinner.
00:13:41Your family dinner?
00:13:42We live here.
00:13:43She keeps harassing us because she thinks money means power.
00:13:46Money doesn't.
00:13:47Ownership does.
00:13:48Vivian Winters is listed as the legal owner through the Winters Trust.
00:13:52You said this was your house?
00:13:54I said it's basically my house.
00:13:58Basically is not legally.
00:14:00Mrs. Winters, please tell them.
00:14:02You promised I'd always have a place here.
00:14:05I said you could stay until you found a place.
00:14:07I gave you years of my life.
00:14:09And took years of her peace.
00:14:11Who hired you?
00:14:12Miss Chloe did.
00:14:13She said we'd be paid triple.
00:14:15She said the old lady was just a relative staying here.
00:14:17Chloe, you told them that?
00:14:20I said what I had to say.
00:14:21Nobody respects a house run by a confused old woman.
00:14:24Chloe!
00:14:25That was very honest.
00:14:26I didn't mean it like that.
00:14:27Officers, we're also filing a report for unlawful entry and authorized lock replacement, property damage, and elder misdeepment.
00:14:33Elder misdeepment?
00:14:34She's lying!
00:14:35Show them the room.
00:14:42Remember who saved you?
00:14:44What did you just say to her?
00:14:46I said I love her.
00:14:50Legal, legal, legal.
00:14:51You people hide behind papers because you have no heart.
00:14:53I remember waking up.
00:14:54You were there.
00:14:59Mrs. Winton slept here?
00:15:01Sometimes.
00:15:03Grandma.
00:15:05Most nights.
00:15:08She liked it there.
00:15:09It's cozy.
00:15:10Then you sleep there tonight?
00:15:12Your property is held by the Winters Trust.
00:15:14Vivian Winters is the managing beneficiary.
00:15:15Eleanor Winters has lifetime residence rights.
00:15:17So neither Linda Carter nor Chloe Carter has legal residency.
00:15:20Correct.
00:15:20Legal, legal, legal.
00:15:21You people hide behind papers because you have no heart.
00:15:24No, you hide behind pity because you have no claim.
00:15:25Mrs. Wintons, tell them I'm not a stranger.
00:15:28Tell them what I did for you.
00:15:30Linda found me after I fell.
00:15:33I saved her life.
00:15:35Can gratitude create property lights?
00:15:38No.
00:15:38That's cool.
00:15:40It's law.
00:15:41We've lived here for over a year.
00:15:42Doesn't that count for something?
00:15:43It counts as a long, unauthorized stay if the owner didn't consent.
00:15:46Pack whatever is actually yours.
00:15:48Marcus's will check every bag.
00:15:54Miss Winters.
00:15:55That's mine.
00:15:56Step back, Miss Carter.
00:15:58To my Vivian, when you're old enough to carry your mother's courage, you stole from a dead woman.
00:16:02Miss Carter, you'll need to explain why this was in your luggage.
00:16:05Mrs. Winters, please.
00:16:06I saved you.
00:16:06I cared for you.
00:16:07Don't let them do this to us.
00:16:08I remember waking up.
00:16:10You were there.
00:16:11There was glass.
00:16:11Grandma, what glass?
00:16:12A necklace.
00:16:13Maybe.
00:16:14I told her to put it back.
00:16:15I was angry.
00:16:16Then I fell.
00:16:17I found it in a closet.
00:16:18Nobody was using it.
00:16:19Because she's dead.
00:16:20Miss Carter, this item will be noted in the report as disputed property and possible theft.
00:16:23Officer, this is a family misunderstanding.
00:16:24You are not family.
00:16:25Miss Wins will file the initial report for unauthorized rechanged locks and disputed property.
00:16:28For elder mistreatment and theft, we'll need medical records, a full inventory, and any security footage you can provide.
00:16:32You'll have everything by tomorrow.
00:16:33Mrs. Carter, Miss Carter, you are not allowed back inside the main house without the owner's permission.
00:16:38So we're just supposed to leave?
00:16:40Yes.
00:16:40But we have nowhere to go.
00:16:42That doesn't give you the right to occupy someone else's home.
00:16:46This isn't over.
00:16:47No.
00:16:48It's finally starting.
00:16:49The police filed the first report.
00:16:51Now we build the case they can't talk their way out of.
00:16:53Start with the so-called rescue.
00:16:54I remember waking up.
00:16:56Linda was there.
00:16:57She's right.
00:16:58I wasn't there.
00:16:59But if Linda really saved Grandma, why does Grandma shake every time she hears her voice?
00:17:03Tell me everything we know about the day Linda saved her date.
00:17:05Hospital, doctor, emergency report.
00:17:07I want all of it.
00:17:07I'll pull the medical records and old security logs, and I'll subpoena anything Linda refuses to give us.
00:17:12There was glass.
00:17:12Grandma, what glass?
00:17:13A necklace.
00:17:14Maybe.
00:17:15I told her to put it back.
00:17:16I was angry.
00:17:17Then I fell.
00:17:18Pull every old security back up.
00:17:20Off-site servers, cloud archives, repair logs, everything.
00:17:22Already started.
00:17:26Chloe just posted again.
00:17:27The caption says they're trying to erase the woman who saved their grandmother.
00:17:30Find me mine.
00:17:33I'm going to charge you for theft, fraud, property damage, and impersonation.
00:17:41Chloe Carter, Beverly Hills princess.
00:17:44That's new.
00:17:46You can't go in there!
00:17:47Into my bedroom?
00:17:48It's my space now.
00:17:52Vivian.
00:17:55I'm sorry.
00:17:58You didn't do this.
00:17:59You weren't using any of it.
00:18:03This was from my mother's memorial gala.
00:18:07Then maybe you should have kept it somewhere safer.
00:18:11It was in my locked room.
00:18:15Scratches, stains, missing tags.
00:18:19Add it to the list.
00:18:20You're going to charge me for bags?
00:18:22How desperate.
00:18:23No.
00:18:24I'm going to charge you for theft, fraud, property damage, and impersonation.
00:18:29Impersonation?
00:18:30You used my home, my clothes, my family name, and my grandmother to sell a lie.
00:18:35She wasn't just living here.

00:19:27You said we deserved this life.
00:19:32She made money from these videos.
00:19:34How much?
00:19:35Brand deals, affiliate links, paid live stream gifts.
00:19:38Roughly $42,000.
00:19:39That's my work.
00:19:40I built that audience.
00:19:41You built it with my house.

00:20:04Good.
00:20:05Let's give them a sh-
00:20:07I'll make sure the world sees what you did to the dead and the living.
00:20:11What's around your neck?
00:20:17Where are they?
00:20:19Grandpa's portrait was here.
00:20:20And your mother's photo was beside it.
00:20:28That was my husband.
00:20:30Marcus.
00:20:31Documenting everything.
00:20:33This isn't accidental damage.
00:20:35No.
00:20:36Someone wanted them gone.
00:20:38I told Linda this room was never to be touched.
00:20:41And she touched it anyway.
00:20:42I let her into this house.
00:20:44You gave her kindness.
00:20:46She turned it into a weapon.
00:20:48I told you I only need my medicine bag.
00:20:50Did you do this?
00:20:51Those old pictures were depressing.
00:20:53Mrs. Winters cried every time she saw them.
00:20:55So you threw away my family?
00:20:57I cleaned up grief.
00:20:58You should thank me.
00:20:59Grief is not trash.
00:21:01Oh my god.
00:21:02They're dead.
00:21:03Why are we acting like broken frames matter?
00:21:05Say that again.
00:21:07I said dead people don't need a whole room.
00:21:09Marcus, check every storage room, every trash pickup, every delivery record.
00:21:13If one piece of my family is missing, I'll make sure the world sees what you did to the dead
00:21:16and the living.
00:21:18What's around your neck?
00:21:19You gave my mother's necklace to your daughter?
00:21:22Why do you get everything?
00:21:25Show me.
00:21:28Don't touch me.
00:21:29The necklace.
00:21:30Now.
00:21:31It's hers.
00:21:32I didn't ask you.
00:21:35Vivian.
00:21:40That was my mother's.
00:21:41Your mother had a lot of things.
00:21:44She wore this the day she brought me home from the hospital.
00:21:46She never took it off.
00:21:49Give it back.
00:21:50No.
00:21:51Chloe.
00:21:51Give it to her.
00:21:53You gave it to me.
00:21:55You gave my mother's necklace to your daughter?
00:21:58I thought Mrs. Wins didn't want painful memories around.
00:22:01You never asked me.
00:22:03Why do you get everything?
00:22:05What?
00:22:06The house.
00:22:07The clothes.
00:22:08The name.
00:22:09The dead mother everyone's worships.
00:22:10Even the sad old grandma.
00:22:12Take it off.
00:22:15Make me.
00:22:16Wrong direction.
00:22:19Stop.
00:22:20You'll make it worse.
00:22:21She's not a prop for your fantasy life.
00:22:23You love dead things so much?
00:22:25Wait until people see how you treat the living.
00:22:27What did you do?
00:22:28She stole my necklace and threatened my mother.
00:22:30The real Vivian Wintels.
00:22:31Chloe, you posted that?
00:22:32Already viral.

00:23:04Team 2, front entrance.
00:23:05Team 3, cover the side gate.
00:23:10Well, look who came home.
00:23:13Ray.
00:23:15Linda said nobody important would be back tonight.
00:23:17Linda knew?
00:23:19Linda knows everything.
00:23:21She said this place was basically hers.
00:23:25Chloe said this was her mansion!

00:23:32Dress hot.
00:23:33Stay late.
00:23:34She needs to run to us again.
00:23:37The memorial room!
00:23:41That was Henry's favorite face.
00:23:44Where are the rest?
00:23:46Linda gave some away.
00:23:47Said rich people call it antique, normal people call it clutter.
00:23:51You're going to tell me every name.
00:23:54Why would I?
00:23:55Because receiving stolen property carries consequences.
00:23:58Look, I only came because Linda said the old lady was signing everything over.
00:24:01Signing what over?
00:24:02Forget it.
00:24:02No, say it again.
00:24:04I can't.

00:24:29No.
00:24:29I never signed that.
00:24:31Are you sure?
00:24:31Yes.
00:24:32These are practice signatures.
00:24:34Someone was copying your handwriting.
00:24:35Linda used to bring me letters and checks.
00:24:37She said my hands were too shaky.
00:24:39Did she ever ask you to sign blank papers?
00:24:40Maybe.
00:24:41Once?
00:24:42She said it was for pharmacy delivery.
00:24:43That's enough for attempted fraud.
00:24:44Attempted?
00:24:45If we find a signed version, it gets worse.
00:24:47You had no right to go through my things.
00:24:49You mean the fraud documents hidden in my house?
00:24:51Mrs. Winters wanted to thank me.
00:24:53I wanted to pay you, not give you my home.
00:24:56You had this giant mansion and still acted like giving my mom a paycheck was charity?
00:25:00She was paid to work, not to inherit.
00:25:02I saved her life!
00:25:04Then why did you need to copy her signature?

00:25:55Vivian, this scandal is damaging the company.
00:25:57People think you abused a working class caregiver.
00:26:00People think what Chloe Carter edited them into thinking.
00:26:02Then apologize first.
00:26:03Fight later.
00:26:04No.
00:26:04No?
00:26:04I won't apologize for removing thieves from my grandmother's home.
00:26:07You're risking your position.
00:26:08Then call a vote.
00:26:10I know this is personal.
00:26:12But online, personal doesn't matter.
00:26:15Footage does.
00:26:16Then we need footage.
00:26:18Do we have it?
00:26:25The deleted files are damaged, but not gone.
00:26:28How long?
00:26:29Not long enough for Madison Reed's noon show.
00:26:31Maybe I should go on camera.
00:26:33No.
00:26:33They're using me.
00:26:35I should speak.
00:26:36Not until you're ready.
00:26:37I wasn't ready when I let them hurt me either.
00:26:40At noon, Linda and Chloe Carter tell us how a billionaire IRS turned gratitude into eviction.
00:26:45Vivian Winkers wants to erase us because we remind her of the grandmother she abandoned.
00:26:48That's not true.
00:26:49I'll do it.
00:26:50I'll face them.
00:26:51If she goes live, there's no taking it back.
00:26:53Then you make sure they regret going live first.

00:26:58Sounds accurate.

00:27:17The billionaire, the maid, and the grandmother no one protected.
00:27:21Sounds accurate.
00:27:23Today, we are inside the Winton's mansion where a former housekeeper claims she was thrown
00:27:27out after years of loyal service.
00:27:30Linda, what happened here?
00:27:32I loved Mrs. Winters like my own mother.
00:27:35I cooked for her, bathed her, saved her life.
00:27:40Grandma, you don't have to answer anything yet.
00:27:42See?
00:27:43Vivian won't even let her speak.
00:27:45Miss Winters, did you or did you not remove Linda Carter from this home?
00:27:48Yes.
00:27:49That is the story she tells.
00:27:50After she saved your grandmother?
00:27:52One more asks, how can someone be so rich and so cruel?
00:27:55That's what we've been asking for years.
00:27:57For years?
00:27:58You were invited to stay for a few days?
00:28:00Because my dorm wasn't safe.
00:28:01Your grandmother had a heart.
00:28:02You don't.
00:28:03I only said a few days.
00:28:04Mrs. Winters, are you saying Linda and Chloe overstayed?
00:28:07Remember who found you on the floor?
00:28:09Did you just threaten her on live television?
00:28:11I reminded her that I saved her.
00:28:12People are saying Vivian Wintons is abusing an old woman into silence.
00:28:16Keep reading.
00:28:17It says, why does the grandmother look scared of the maid?
00:28:20Mrs. Wintons, are you afraid of Linda Carter?
00:28:22I remember.
00:28:23Turn it off!
00:28:24Hands off the camera!
00:28:25She's lying!
00:28:26She's lying!
00:28:27Grandma, look at me.
00:28:29You're safe.
00:28:35There was glass on the floor.
00:28:38She's confused.
00:28:39She gets like this when she's tired.
00:28:41What glass, Grandma?
00:28:42The pink necklace.
00:28:44Linda had it in her hand.
00:28:46No.
00:28:46No, that never happened.
00:28:49Linda, Mrs. Wintons just said she saw you holding a necklace before she fell.
00:28:53She's mixing things up.
00:28:55I found her after she collapsed.
00:28:58I told her to put it back.
00:29:01Put what back?
00:29:02Your mother's birthday necklace.
00:29:04The pink diamond.
00:29:07Stop filming!
00:29:08She's having a medical episode.
00:29:10Do you want us to stop?
00:29:12Grandma?
00:29:13No.
00:29:14I want to remember.
00:29:16I came downstairs.
00:29:17Linda was opening the jewelry cabinet.
00:29:20I said, that doesn't belong to you.
00:29:22She said I owed her.
00:29:24She said this family had too much.
00:29:26Enough!
00:29:26She doesn't know what she's saying.
00:29:27Sit down.
00:29:28I'm being attacked for loving an old woman.
00:29:30No.
00:29:31You're being exposed for using one.
00:29:33The comments are shifting.
00:29:34People are asking why Linda doesn't deny the jewelry cabinet.
00:29:37People online are stupid.
00:29:38They believe anything.
00:29:39Careful, you're still alive.
00:29:40You pushed me.
00:29:41I saved you.
00:29:41No.
00:29:42You came back because you were afraid I was dead.
00:29:45Turn it off!
00:29:46Hands off the camera!
00:29:47Lying!
00:29:47She's lying!
00:29:48That old woman is lying!
00:29:50What did you call her?
00:29:51Viewers are asking, did she just call the grandmother an old woman?
00:29:56I'm not crazy, am I?
00:29:58No.
00:29:59You were silenced.
00:30:02Chloe, stop.
00:30:02No!
00:30:03I am done being the poor maid's daughter!
00:30:05Chloe is emotional.
00:30:06She watched her mother get humiliated.
00:30:09She called my grandmother a liar.
00:30:10Because she is!
00:30:11She let us live here, then turned on us when you came back!
00:30:16You liked having us here.
00:30:18You liked not being alone!
00:30:20Step back!
00:30:20Or what?
00:30:21You'll hit me on camera?
00:30:22No.
00:30:23I'll let the camera watch you destroy yourself.
00:30:26Chloe, you may want to sit down.
00:30:28Don't tell me what to do!
00:30:29You wanted a story!
00:30:30I'm giving you one!
00:30:32Chloe, stop.
00:30:33No!
00:30:33I am done being the poor maid's daughter!
00:30:35She gets a mansion, a company, a dead mother everyone cries over,
00:30:39and a grandma who signs checks because she feels lonely!
00:30:44So that's what she was to you?
00:30:46A lonely woman with a checkbook?
00:30:47She wanted to help us.
00:30:48And you wanted to become us.
00:30:50Why not?
00:30:51You weren't even here.
00:30:52I know.
00:30:54And I will live with that guilt.
00:30:56But you don't get to turn my guilt into your deed.
00:31:00Tell them you wanted us here!
00:31:02Touch her and you're done.
00:31:03Let go!
00:31:04Not until you calm down.
00:31:05Look!
00:31:06She's hurting me!
00:31:07The camera shows Chloe reached for Mrs. Wynne's first.
00:31:09Stop filming my daughter!
00:31:11Back up!
00:31:11Tell them the truth!
00:31:12Tell them I saved you!
00:31:13You didn't save me.
00:31:14You trapped me.
00:31:16If you both hate us so much, maybe you both should have died that day!
00:31:19Say that again.
00:31:20You don't have to watch.
00:31:22I need to.
00:31:23Viewers are asking,
00:31:25did Chloe Carter just wish death on Mrs. Wintez?
00:31:28I didn't mean it like that.
00:31:30Then what did you mean?
00:31:31She's a child!
00:31:32She's scared!
00:31:33She's 22.
00:31:36The recovery is moving.
00:31:37We found fragments.
00:31:38From the deleted footage?
00:31:39Yes, but not clean enough yet.
00:31:41What footage?
00:31:42The footage someone deleted with your mother's staff access.
00:31:45I never deleted anything.
00:31:46Your staff login was used nine times after midnight,
00:31:48three days after Mrs. Wintez's fall.
00:31:50Maybe the system glitched.
00:31:51Systems glitch.
00:31:52People delete.
00:31:53From the deleted footage?
00:31:55Yes, but not clean enough yet.
00:31:56What footage?
00:31:57The footage someone deleted with your mother's staff access.
00:32:00I never deleted anything.
00:32:01Your staff login was used nine times after midnight,
00:32:03three days after Mrs. Winters' fall.
00:32:05Maybe the system glitched.
00:32:07Systems glitch. People delete.
00:32:09Bring your camera.
00:32:10You want us to keep filming?
00:32:11They wanted a live stream.
00:32:13Let's give them evidence.
00:32:18West Hall, jewelry cabinet, 2.13 a.m., partial recovery.
00:32:24You don't have to watch.
00:32:25I need to.
00:32:27Linda is at the jewelry cabinet.
00:32:29Mrs. Winters walks in.
00:32:30They appear to be arguing.
00:32:31That's fake!
00:32:32Careful, that's another camera.
00:32:35See? Nothing.
00:32:37Oh, that! The video doesn't show it!
00:32:38Wait.
00:32:40People are saying, zoom the reflection.
00:32:43You didn't find her on the floor.
00:32:45You put her there.
00:32:46Mrs. Winters, please!
00:32:47I panicked! I was poor!
00:32:49I wasn't crazy!
00:32:51No. You were hurt.
00:32:53Then they made you doubt yourself.
00:32:55No, that's not what happened.
00:32:56Then explain it.
00:32:57For everyone watching, we are seeing recovered security footage from the night Mrs. Winters was injured.
00:33:01The reflection appears to show Linda Carter pushing Mrs. Winters.
00:33:04You can't say that! You're not a judge!
00:33:07No. But the viewers can see.
00:33:09They're saying Linda lied?
00:33:12Chloe knew? Call the police?
00:33:14Stop reading!
00:33:15Funny. You loved comments when they hated me.
00:33:17There's more.
00:33:18No!
00:33:18No.
00:33:19Nope.
00:33:19Don't.
00:33:21She took it first.
00:33:23She took the necklace before calling for help.
00:33:26I'm calling Detective Hayes.
00:33:28Mrs. Winters, please!
00:33:30I panicked!
00:33:31I was poor!
00:33:32I was desperate!
00:33:33You let me believe I owed you my life.
00:33:36You do!
00:33:37I came back, didn't I?
00:33:38You came back to check if your victim was dead.
00:33:40New trending topic, Linda Carter lied.
00:33:43Another one, Justice for Eleanor Winters.
00:33:45No, no, no! This is edited! Vivian paid them!
00:33:47This is a live stream, Chloe.
00:33:49You ruined everything!
00:33:50You did that yourself!
00:33:51One more fragment.
00:33:53North Hall, Vivian's bedroom.
00:33:55Why do you look scared?
00:33:56Mrs. Winters is blocking Chloe at the bedroom door.
00:34:00That was taken out of context.
00:34:01Then explain the context of slapping an old woman.
00:34:03Servant room hallway, 11.48 p.m.
00:34:06Play it.
00:34:07No!
00:34:10Explain it.
00:34:11She grabbed me first.
00:34:12The footage shows Mrs. Win standing in front of the door.
00:34:15Her hands are down.
00:34:16You don't know what she said!
00:34:18What could she say that made you slap a 76-year-old woman?
00:34:21I told her not to enter your room.
00:34:23I said your mother's things were inside.
00:34:25And you acted like I was dirt?
00:34:27I said it was private.
00:34:28Private.
00:34:29Sacred.
00:34:30Family only.
00:34:31That's what people like you say when you mean,
00:34:33poor girls stay out.
00:34:34No.
00:34:35It meant thieves stay out.
00:34:37Comments are asking,
00:34:38how many times did Chloe hurt her when cameras weren't watching?
00:34:41They're turning on me because you're showing fake clips!
00:34:43Security footage metamata is intact.
00:34:45Time, date, camera source.
00:34:46Mom!
00:34:47Say something!
00:34:48Chloe was young.
00:34:49She made a mistake.
00:34:50She was old enough to know pain.
00:34:52After that day, I stopped going upstairs.
00:34:55Grandma.
00:34:56I was ashamed.
00:34:58I thought if I told you, you would blame yourself.
00:35:01I do blame myself.
00:35:03But not for their crimes.
00:35:05You think one slap makes me a monster?
00:35:07Chloe.
00:35:07There are more clips being recovered.
00:35:11Recovered file.
00:35:13Servant room hallway.
00:35:1411.48pm.
00:35:16Play it.
00:35:16No!
00:35:20You threw away her medicine?
00:35:24The district attorney's office is watching the live stream.
00:35:28For viewers watching,
00:35:29Chloe Carter appears to throw away Mrs. Winter's medication.
00:35:33It was expired!
00:35:34Was it expired?
00:35:36It was my heart medication.
00:35:38That changes the case.
00:35:40I didn't know!
00:35:40How was I supposed to know what old people take?
00:35:43Because the bottle had her name on it.
00:35:44People are saying,
00:35:45This is not a misunderstanding.
00:35:47This is abuse.
00:35:49Stop reading the comments!
00:35:51You loved my audience when they hated Vivian.
00:35:54Chloe, your management agency just released a statement.
00:35:57What statement?
00:35:57Effective immediately, we are suspending all collaborations with Chloe Carter's pending investigation.
00:36:03No.
00:36:03They can't do that!
00:36:04Chloe Winters.
00:36:05Hair air.
00:36:06Beverly Hills bloodline.
00:36:08Luxury is my birthright.
00:36:09Birthright?
00:36:10You stole a name, a room, a wardrobe, jewelry, and an old woman's dignity.
00:36:15You had too much!
00:36:16And that made it yours?
00:36:17Stop talking!
00:36:18No!
00:36:18You told me we deserved better!
00:36:19New trending topic, fake Beverly Hills Harris.
00:36:22And another one, justice for Grandma Winters.
00:36:24No!
00:36:25I built that account!
00:36:26I built everything!
00:36:28On stolen ground.
00:36:33The district attorney's office is watching the live stream.
00:36:39We were the ones here!
00:36:40We were the ones feeding her!
00:36:42You fed me fear.
00:36:44Fine.
00:36:45Talk about me.
00:36:46But ask Vivian where she was for all those years.
00:36:49Ask her why her grandmother was so lonely that she let strangers stay.
00:36:55Vivian Winters didn't come home until someone touched her things!
00:36:58Miss Wintons, do you want to respond?
00:37:01You don't have to answer that on camera.
00:37:06No.
00:37:07I do.
00:37:10I was gone too much.
00:37:14I took over my family's company after my mother died.
00:37:17I told myself Grandma was safe because I paid people to help her.
00:37:20I was wrong.
00:37:21Exactly.
00:37:22You abandoned her.
00:37:23I failed her.
00:37:24You abused her.
00:37:25There's a difference.
00:37:26We were the ones here.
00:37:27We were the ones feeding her.
00:37:28You fed me fear.
00:37:30I was lonely.
00:37:31That part is true.
00:37:32But loneliness does not make cruelty love.
00:37:35I didn't tell Vivian because I didn't want her to blame herself.
00:37:39That was my mistake.
00:37:40No, Grandma.
00:37:41We both made mistakes.
00:37:43But they made choices.
00:37:45Viewers are saying Vivian admitted her mistake.
00:37:47Chloe still hasn't.
00:37:48Another says neglect is not the same as abuse.
00:37:50You all just love rich tears.
00:37:52No.
00:37:52They hate liars.
00:37:53Then maybe they should see what kind of company you run.
00:37:55What did you do?
00:37:56Breaking.
00:37:56Winter's group CEO abuses staff at home.
00:37:58What happens inside her company?
00:38:00You took my daughter's jewelry and told me grief made me weak.
00:38:05Vivian, the board saw Chloe's new post.
00:38:08They're demanding an emergency response.
00:38:10Oops.
00:38:11Tell the board I'm busy exposing a crime scene.
00:38:14That is not the response they expected.
00:38:17It's the one they get.
00:38:19Mrs. Winters, do you want to continue?
00:38:21You don't have to.
00:38:23I have been silent long enough.
00:38:25When Linda first came to this house, I thought she was kind.
00:38:28I was kind to you.
00:38:30You were kind when Vivian called.
00:38:32You were cruel when no one watched.
00:38:34You told me I was old, confused, useless.
00:38:38That's not...
00:38:39Do not speak over me.
00:38:40You moved me out of my bedroom.
00:38:42You locked my doors.
00:38:44You took my daughter's jewelry and told me grief made me weak.
00:38:49And I let Vivian believe I was fine.
00:38:51Grandma, I was ashamed.
00:38:52If anyone watching this has been made afraid in their own home, please hear me.
00:38:57Kindness is not permission.
00:38:58People are writing, Grandma Winton's We Believe You.
00:39:00Another says my mother went through this too.
00:39:02You ungrateful old woman!
00:39:04There she is.
00:39:05I gave you my years.
00:39:06You gave me fear and called it care.
00:39:09Detective Hayes is here.
00:39:10Because live scream confessions are still confessions.
00:39:13Linda Carter.
00:39:13Why are your detectives here?
00:39:14Chloe Carter, we need to ask you both some questions.
00:39:16We didn't do anything.
00:39:18Then answer.
00:39:18Wait, Mrs. Winters, tell them!
00:39:20I already did.
00:39:21Vivian, tell them to stop!
00:39:23You can keep filming, but do not interfere.
00:39:25Understood.
00:39:27This is harassment.
00:39:28Vivian called you because she's embarrassed.
00:39:31Actually, our office was watching the live stream.
00:39:33Detective, I am the victim here.
00:39:36Then you'll have no problem answering questions.
00:39:38Show me the recovered footage.
00:39:39West Hall, jewelry cabinet.
00:39:412.13 a.m.
00:39:42Recovered fragment one.
00:39:43North Hall, Vivian's bedroom.
00:39:454.27 p.m.
00:39:46Recovered fragment three.
00:39:47Servant room hallway.
00:39:4811.48 p.m.
00:39:49Recovered fragment four.
00:39:50Mrs. Winters, did you consent to being moved into the servant room?
00:39:53No.
00:39:54Did you give Linda Carter permission to take your jewelry?
00:39:58No.
00:40:01Did you discard Mrs. Winters' medication?
00:40:04I didn't know what it was.
00:40:06That's not a no.
00:40:08This was Ray's idea!
00:40:09He brought people here!
00:40:11He made everything worse!
00:40:12Ray didn't push my grandmother.
00:40:14I panicked!
00:40:15Say that again.
00:40:17I mean, I panicked when I found her.
00:40:19Convenient correction.
00:40:21You can't arrest us because rich people are mad!
00:40:23No, but I can detain you based on evidence.
00:40:25Wait, wait!
00:40:26Mrs. Winters, tell them!
00:40:27I already did!
00:40:28Vivian, tell them to stop!
00:40:30You wanted cameras.
00:40:31Now smile.
00:40:33This isn't over.
00:40:34Ray has things you don't want anyone to see.
00:40:37Find Ray.
00:40:37Thanks, sir.
00:40:39She was waiting for me to die.
00:40:41Not anymore.
00:40:43You were inside a private residence without permission.
00:40:47Linda invited me.
00:40:48And the missing antiques?
00:40:51I didn't steal anything.
00:40:54Then start explaining before Linda makes you the whole story.
00:41:02Ray Dawson is treading now.
00:41:04People are asking who he is.
00:41:06Then let him answer.
00:41:10Detective.
00:41:11Ray is talking.
00:41:13Speaker.
00:41:14He says Linda told him Eleanor Wintons was going to transfer the house.
00:41:18She was waiting for me to die.
00:41:21Not anymore.
00:41:22Linda said the old lady was grateful.
00:41:24Said the granddaughter was never around.
00:41:26And you believe they gave you permission to throw parties there?
00:41:29She said it was basically hers.
00:41:31Do you recognize this?
00:41:33That transfer thing?
00:41:35You signed as a witness?
00:41:36I didn't know it was fake.
00:41:37Linda told me to sign.
00:41:39She said once Eleanor signed, we'd all be taken care of.
00:41:41Say that clearly.
00:41:43Linda Carter planned to get Eleanor Winters to sign over the house.
00:41:47Did Chloe know?
00:41:48Ray.
00:41:50Chloe said the old lady was easy to scare.
00:41:53Get me that recording.
00:41:56There's more.
00:41:57Ray says he has an audio message from Linda.
00:42:00Vivian is too busy playing CEO.
00:42:02By the time she notices, it'll be too late.
00:42:04Don't carry that.
00:42:06I should have noticed.
00:42:08Voice message from Linda Carter to Ray Dawson sent six weeks ago.
00:42:13You don't have to listen.
00:42:14I do.
00:42:16The old lady won't last long.
00:42:19Once she signs, Chloe and I are done begging.
00:42:22Vivian is too busy playing CEO.
00:42:24By the time she notices, it'll be too late.
00:42:26Don't carry that.
00:42:28I should have noticed.
00:42:29She hid.
00:42:30I hid.
00:42:31That is how shame works.
00:42:33This recording establishes intent, and Ray is willing to authenticate it.
00:42:37Good.
00:42:37Then we stop treating this like a house dispute.
00:42:39It's fraud, theft, elder abuse, and conspiracy.
00:42:42Ray is a drunk.
00:42:43He'll say anything.
00:42:45The old lady won't last long.
00:42:46Once she signs, Chloe and I are done begging.
00:42:49That was taken out of context.
00:42:50What context makes that better?
00:42:53Ray says you knew about the transfer agreement.
00:42:55Ray says a lot of things when he wants to save himself.
00:42:58He also says you called Mrs. Winters easy to scare.
00:43:02I want a protective order.
00:43:03Are you sure?
00:43:04I should have protected myself before.
00:43:07I will now.
00:43:08I'll file it tonight.
00:43:10Chloe's being released pending further investigation.
00:43:13Already?
00:43:13From the police station steps.
00:43:14They can't hold me because I told the truth.
00:43:16Where is she now?
00:43:18Front gate.
00:43:19She's here.
00:43:20Chloe, let's go!
00:43:22Let her go!
00:43:23No.
00:43:24She tells them the truth, or I don't move.
00:43:27Back at the mansion they stole from us!
00:43:30Miss Carter, you're not allowed on the property.
00:43:32You'd have done it, closing times to risen ocean!
00:43:34First Chloe system and worst part here of his no-class dean.
00:43:37Miss Carter, you're not allowed on the property.
00:43:39My mother is in police custody because of Vivian's lies!
00:43:52Grandma, stay inside.
00:43:54I'm done hiding.
00:43:56Stop!
00:43:58Grandma Eleanor, please tell them to let my mom go!
00:44:01You know my mom loved you.
00:44:03You know she took care of you.
00:44:05She hurt me.
00:44:06Because you betrayed us!
00:44:08Back up!
00:44:09She doesn't even love you.
00:44:11She left you alone until it became embarrassing.
00:44:13You're done using my guilt.
00:44:15Chloe, let's go!
00:44:16Let her go!
00:44:18No.
00:44:19She tells them the truth, or I don't move.
00:44:22Chloe, this is assault.
00:44:23You are on camera.
00:44:24Good!
00:44:25Film it!
00:44:26Film what happens when rich people destroy poor families!
00:44:29Chloe, if you bruise her, I swear!
00:44:31You'll what?
00:44:32Call more lawyers?
00:44:33You are hurting me!
00:44:37Get off me!
00:44:38Grandma, are you hurt?
00:44:39Call Detective Hayes.
00:44:41Tell him she violated the protective order request before it was even filed.
00:44:44I was supposed to be her granddaughter!
00:44:46What did you just say?
00:44:47She loved me before you came back!
00:44:49This house, this name, this life, it should have been mine!
00:44:52You didn't just want the mansion.
00:44:53You wanted my life.
00:44:55You think I'm the villain because I wanted more?
00:44:57No.
00:44:58Because you hurt someone weaker than you to get it.
00:45:00Do you know what it's like to stand in a mansion and know none of it will ever be yours?
00:45:04Yes.
00:45:06I stood here after my mother died and knew no amount of money could bring her back.
00:45:11Having things doesn't mean having everything.
00:45:13Easy to say when you have the things.
00:45:15People are saying Chloe just admitted she wanted Vivian's life?
00:45:18Stop twisting my words!
00:45:19You said the house, the name, and the life should have been yours.
00:45:22I cared about you.
00:45:23No.
00:45:24You pitied me.
00:45:25I let you stay because I thought you needed help.
00:45:27And I did!
00:45:28Help is a room, not a stolen identity.
00:45:30You came back and ruined everything.
00:45:32No.
00:45:33I came back and found what you ruined.
00:45:35You think I'm the villain because I wanted more?
00:45:37No.
00:45:38Because you hurt someone weaker than you to get it.
00:45:41You could have left, worked, built something you chose to steal from an old woman.
00:45:46You think my life is over?
00:45:48Check your phones.
00:45:51Anonymous leak.
00:45:52Vivian Winter's company under investigation for employee abuse.
00:45:55That's not true.
00:45:57Doesn't matter.
00:45:59It's out.
00:46:01Vivian, the board wants you removed temporarily.
00:46:15No, no.
00:46:16From maid's daughter to fake heiress, how Chloe Carter built a luxury lie.
00:46:25The company is being dragged into your personal scandal.
00:46:29It became a company issue because Chloe fabricated one.
00:46:33Fabricated or not, public trust is collapsing.
00:46:36Our stock dipped 3% after the anonymous leak.
00:46:40Read the leak.
00:46:42Winters Group CEO allegedly mistreats employees the same way she abused her grandmother's caregiver.
00:46:49Allegedly is where cowards hide.
00:46:51We recommend you step back until this settles.
00:46:55Vivian, if the board wants me removed, call a formal vote.
00:46:58And while you decide whether you're afraid of gossip, I'll be finding the person who planted it.
00:47:04That was terrifying.
00:47:06That was terrifying.
00:47:06Good.
00:47:07Brand partnership terminated.
00:47:09Account under review.
00:47:10Agency suspension confirmed.
00:47:13No, no, no.
00:47:14From maid's daughter to fake heiress, how Chloe Carter built a luxury lie.
00:47:20She used me!
00:47:22Pack your things.
00:47:22We need to leave town.
00:47:23No.
00:47:24Chloe, we lost.
00:47:26You lost.
00:47:27I'm not done.
00:47:28What did you do?
00:47:31Anonymous documents delivered to Winton's group board.
00:47:34What documents?
00:47:35Enough to make Vivian bleed.
00:47:37This complaint was about a terminated manager.
00:47:39Chloe's version says it was about you.
00:47:41This Madison wants a comment before she airs Chloe's company allegations.
00:47:45What allegations?
00:47:46Hostile work culture.
00:47:47Misuse of security staff.
00:47:48Retaliation against domestic employees.
00:47:50Pattern of intimidation.
00:47:51She learned corporate words overnight.
00:47:53The problem is some old internal complaints are attached.
00:47:56Real complaints?
00:47:56Real forms.
00:47:57Twisted context.
00:47:59This complaint was about a terminated manager.
00:48:01Chloe's version says it was about you.
00:48:03This one says security escorted an employee out.
00:48:06Chloe's post says Vivian uses private guards to threaten workers.
00:48:10Where did she get these?
00:48:11Someone with access to old HR archives.
00:48:14Linda used to come to charity events.
00:48:16Chloe volunteered once at the foundation office.
00:48:18And stole more than handbags.
00:48:25I'm giving you one chance to respond before this airs.
00:48:28Read Chloe's strongest claim.
00:48:30Chloe claims Vivian Wintuz uses wealth, lawyers, and security to silence working class women.
00:48:36And what did your cameras record her doing?
00:48:38Threatening her grandmother.
00:48:40Lying about property.
00:48:41And reacting badly to evidence.
00:48:43Then air both.
00:48:45Her accusations.
00:48:46My evidence.
00:48:47Full context.
00:48:48Vivian.
00:48:49No edits.
00:48:50Agreed.
00:48:51You just invited a public corporate trial.
00:48:53No.
00:48:54Chloe did.
00:48:55The board moved the emergency meeting to tonight.
00:48:57Good.
00:48:58Good?
00:49:00I don't like waiting to be stabbed.
00:49:04Vivian, this could cost you the company.
00:49:08Then I'll find out who thinks they can take my home and my company in the same week.
00:49:14Vivian.
00:49:22What is that?
00:49:24Something your mother asked me to give you when you were ready.
00:49:28My mother asked you?
00:49:29Before she passed.
00:49:30And you waited years?
00:49:32She said you'd spend a long time pretending strength meant not needing anyone.
00:49:36Read it.
00:49:38If I read it, I might stop.
00:49:41My dearest Vivian, if you are hearing this from Adrian, it means you are carrying too much alone.
00:49:46You will think the company needs you more than your heart does.
00:49:49You will be wrong.
00:49:50Take care of your grandmother.
00:49:51Not because she is weak, but because love needs presence, not just protection.
00:49:55And if you ever forget how loved you are, ask Adrian Blackwood.
00:49:58I trust him to tell you the truth, even when you hate him for it.
00:50:00She trusted you?
00:50:01Yes.
00:50:02And you never told me?
00:50:03You weren't ready.
00:50:04That's convenient.
00:50:04It's also true.
00:50:06Did you stay because of her?
00:50:08At first.
00:50:12Not anymore.
00:50:15Adrian.
00:50:18We should get you to the board meeting.
00:50:23Let people love you before you become a mansion with all the lights on and no one home.
00:50:29Vivian.
00:50:36And if I ask now?
00:50:38Then I answer.
00:50:42How long?
00:50:43What?
00:50:45How long have you been watching over me because my mother asked you to?
00:50:48Since the funeral.
00:50:50That was ten years ago.
00:50:51I know.
00:50:52Every merger?
00:50:53Every lawsuit?
00:50:54Every time you showed up before I called?
00:50:56Yes.
00:50:57So I was a job.
00:50:58No.
00:50:59You just said yes.
00:51:00Your safety was a promise.
00:51:02You were never a job.
00:51:04That sounds like something a very expensive lawyer would say.
00:51:07Then stop hearing the lawyer.
00:51:10Hear me.
00:51:11I stayed because your mother asked.
00:51:14I kept staying because every time you walked into a room you acted like you didn't need anyone.
00:51:20Maybe I didn't.
00:51:22You did.
00:51:24You just never asked.
00:51:26And if I ask now?
00:51:28Then I answer.
00:51:35Miss Winters, is your family lawyer also personally involved?
00:51:40Turn that camera off.
00:51:41Breaking alert, Vivian Winters caught an intimate moment with attorney during active investigation.
00:51:47Of course.
00:51:48I'll handle this.
00:51:49No.
00:51:50We handle it.
00:51:56You want a headline?
00:51:58Use this one.
00:52:00Evidence matters more than scandal.
00:52:02Miss Winters, critics are already saying your lawyer has a conflict of interest.
00:52:06Critics type fast.
00:52:08Is Adrienne Blackwood representing you professionally, personally, or romantically?
00:52:13That question is inappropriate.
00:52:15No.
00:52:15It's predictable.
00:52:17Adrienne Blackwood is my family's legal counsel.
00:52:20Only that?
00:52:26He is also someone I trust.
00:52:30That's not a denial.
00:52:31Here is what I will deny.
00:52:33I will not allow a criminal investigation into elder abuse to be buried under gossip about
00:52:38who stood too close in an elevator.
00:52:41You want a headline?
00:52:43Use this one.
00:52:45Evidence matters more than scandal.
00:52:48Vivian, in one week, your household scandal became an elder abuse case, a corporate reputational
00:52:53crisis, and now a romantic conflict of interest headline.
00:52:57Efficient, isn't it?
00:52:58This is not funny.
00:53:00No.
00:53:00What's funny is this board panicking over headlines while a criminal used our foundation
00:53:04archive to fabricate corporate abuse claims.
00:53:06Internal audit shows Chloe Carter accessed foundation storage during a volunteer event
00:53:1018 months ago.
00:53:11The leaked documents match files missing from that archive.
00:53:14Even if true, public confidence is damaged.
00:53:16Then I'll restore it publicly.
00:53:17How?
00:53:18Press conference.
00:53:19Tomorrow morning.
00:53:21Full press?
00:53:22Full press.
00:53:23Vivian, that gives them one more night to attack.
00:53:25Good.
00:53:26Let them panic.
00:53:27Panic people make mistakes.
00:53:28Vivian Winters to hold press conference amid abuse and conflict scandal.
00:53:36Then I'll give her something to confess.
00:53:38This proves Vivian paid people to fake the footage.
00:53:41That document is fake.
00:53:43Then let her present it.
00:53:48Once you start, don't let them drag you into gossip.
00:53:50They can try.
00:53:52Chloe just posted again.
00:53:54Read it.
00:53:55Exclusive.
00:53:56Vivian Winters' company covered up employee complaints for years.
00:53:59Right on time.
00:54:00Miss Winters, did you abuse your grandmother's caregiver?
00:54:02Is your attorney also your romantic partner?
00:54:04Will you step down to see you?
00:54:05I'll answer the question everyone is avoiding.
00:54:07What is the difference between a worker and a criminal?
00:54:10A worker deserves dignity.
00:54:11A criminal uses dignity as a disguise.
00:54:13Property deed.
00:54:14Winters Trust.
00:54:15Managing beneficiary Vivian Winters.
00:54:16Recovered security footage.
00:54:18Linda Carter at the jewelry cabinet before Eleanor Winters' fall.
00:54:21Recovered footage.
00:54:22Chloe Carter striking Eleanor Winters outside Vivian Winters' bedroom.
00:54:26That is not labor.
00:54:27That is abuse.
00:54:28What about the Winters Group employee abuse allegations?
00:54:30Let's talk about those.
00:54:32Internal audit.
00:54:32Leaked complaint files were taken from Winters Foundation archives, accessed by Chloe Carter
00:54:37during a volunteer event 18 months ago.
00:54:39Original complaint won against former manager to after workplace threats, not employee intimidation
00:54:43by the CEO.
00:54:44Chloe Carter stole contacts the same way she stole jewelry.
00:54:47And Adrian Blackwood, is his judgment compromised?
00:54:49Adrian Blackwood is my family's attorney who disclosed his role to the board this morning.
00:54:52He also helped protect evidence when others tried to bury.
00:54:54Are you denying a personal relationship?
00:54:56I'm denying that my private life changes what Linda and Chloe did to my grandmother.
00:55:00Madison is live outside the courthouse.
00:55:02Chloe just showed up.
00:55:03Read the headline.
00:55:04Chloe Carter claims she has proof Vivian Winters fabricated the entire abuse.
00:55:07Put it on screen.
00:55:08Chloe Carter's final evidence.
00:55:09This proves Vivian paid people to fake the footage.
00:55:12That document is fake.
00:55:13Then let her present it.
00:55:15And let everyone watch it collapse.
00:55:18Miss Carter, we need to talk about that document.
00:55:20I'm giving evidence.
00:55:21And if it's forged, you're creating evidence.
00:55:23This proves Vivian paid a tech company to fake the security footage.
00:55:29Invoice for video reconstruction services.
00:55:32Paid by Winters Group.
00:55:34Miss Winters, did you pay to reconstruct the footage?
00:55:37That invoice number is wrong.
00:55:38I wrote the preservation order.
00:55:40That vendor was never hired by Winton's group.
00:55:42You're sure?
00:55:42Chloe, where did you get this?
00:55:44An insider.
00:55:45Name?
00:55:45I'm protecting my source.
00:55:47Miss Carter, we need to talk about that document.
00:55:49I'm giving evidence.
00:55:50And if it's forged, you're creating evidence.
00:55:53We got a hit on the missing antiques.
00:55:55Where?
00:55:56Storage unit under Linda Carter's name, East Pasadena.
00:55:58Rental started eight months ago.
00:56:00Henry's faces?
00:56:02We're going to find them.
00:56:02I'll get a search warrant fast-tracked.
00:56:04Press conference is paused.
00:56:05Evidence is not.
00:56:12Winter's Silver.
00:56:13Dining room.
00:56:14Sell later.
00:56:17Henry.
00:56:18Henry.
00:56:18Henry.
00:56:20Payments from Mrs. Winters.
00:56:22That's a ledger.
00:56:24Read it.
00:56:25Medication delivery, $1,200.
00:56:28Plumbing emergency, $4,000.
00:56:30Chloe tuition, $10,000.
00:56:32I paid those.
00:56:34And she recorded every dollar she stole.
00:56:40After transfer.
00:56:42She was waiting for the house document.
00:56:44When?
00:56:45Emergency caregiver bonus, $8,000.
00:56:48I don't remember that.
00:56:49Grandma, did Linda ever tell you she needed money urgently?
00:56:52Many times.
00:56:53Her daughter's school, her cousin's surgery, her rent, her debt.
00:56:58This isn't desperation.
00:56:59This is a system.
00:57:00Jewelry inventory.
00:57:02Pink diamond necklace.
00:57:03Blue sapphire pendant.
00:57:05Pearl clutch.
00:57:06Sell only after transfer.
00:57:07After transfer.
00:57:08She was waiting for the house document.
00:57:11When?
00:57:12After she said the pharmacy wouldn't deliver my medicine unless I sign.
00:57:15That may be how she built the forge transfer.
00:57:19We found your ledger.
00:57:21It's household accounting.
00:57:22Chloe influencer wardrobe, $3,000.
00:57:25Paid by Eleanor.
00:57:26Ray cleanup, $2,000.
00:57:28Paid by Eleanor.
00:57:29Mrs. Winkers wanted to help.
00:57:32Get her to sign before Vivian comes back.
00:57:34Do you know what it's like to scrub floors under chandeliers worth more than your life?
00:57:38That doesn't answer the question.
00:57:39I worked.
00:57:40I waited.
00:57:41I watched them waste rooms they never use.
00:57:43So you decided theft was fairness.
00:57:46Adrian.
00:57:48Residential interest transfer executed copy.
00:57:51Executed.
00:57:55I didn't sign that.
00:57:57Ray Dawson witnessed it.
00:57:59Then we bring Ray back.
00:58:01Who is it?
00:58:03It says, if Chloe goes down, so do you.
00:58:06Signature is on this.
00:58:07Linda said it was just paperwork.
00:58:09Paperwork that transfers his interest in a multi-million dollar home.
00:58:11I didn't read it.
00:58:12Okay, I knew it was shady.
00:58:14But Linda said the old lady agreed.
00:58:16Please summarize your findings.
00:58:18The signature imitates Mrs. Winton's letter forms.
00:58:20But pressure, rhythm, and tremor patterns do not match.
00:58:24In my opinion, this signature is forged.
00:58:28I was so afraid I had signed it and forgotten you didn't give them your home.
00:58:32They tried to take it.
00:58:33Who prepared the document?
00:58:36Ray, forgery of elder financial documents is not a misunderstanding.
00:58:40Linda had the template.
00:58:42Chloe helped with the signature.
00:58:43She said she'd watched Eleanor sign checks a hundred times.
00:58:46Chloe helped.
00:58:47And she kept saying, do it before Vivian comes back.
00:58:55Ray says Chloe helped forge the signature.
00:58:57Chloe?
00:58:58She wanted my life.
00:59:00We're adding forgery and conspiracy charges.
00:59:02Good.
00:59:05Who is it?
00:59:07It says, if Chloe goes down, so do you.
00:59:11Tell Vivian to stop.
00:59:13Unknown number.
00:59:15I'll trace it.
00:59:26You wanted to be Mrs. Winters.
00:59:29Do it.
00:59:29Then I'll go live.
00:59:31Ray says Chloe helped forge Eleanor Winters a signature.
00:59:35No.
00:59:35He says you planned the transfer before Vivian came back.
00:59:38Chloe didn't know what she was doing.
00:59:40She's 22.
00:59:42I did it.
00:59:44Put it on me.
00:59:46Chloe Carter breaks silence raised by a desperate mother targeted by a billionaire.
00:59:49Good.
00:59:50Make me look honest.
00:59:51My mom controlled everything.
00:59:53I was just a kid trying to survive.
00:59:55What did you just say?
00:59:57I just told police you didn't know.
01:00:00You should.
01:00:01I protected you.
01:00:02You protected yourself.
01:00:04You wanted that house as much as I did.
01:00:05I wanted better for us.
01:00:07No.
01:00:08You wanted to be Mrs. Winters.
01:00:10Do it!
01:00:11Then I'll go live.
01:00:13You'll blame me for everything?
01:00:15You're the adult.
01:00:16You forged that signature.
01:00:17You taught me how.
01:00:19What have I made?
01:00:20Someone who refuses to be poor.
01:00:26What now?
01:00:27Notice of disciplinary review from Westbrook University.
01:00:31Madison.
01:00:32Allegations include fraud, identity misrepresentation, and conduct harmful to an elderly person.
01:00:38It's over.
01:00:40No.
01:00:41Now I have nothing to lose.
01:00:44I want one last interview.
01:00:52Chloe, you asked for this interview.
01:00:54What do you want to say?
01:00:55I want people to know I was raised by a desperate woman.
01:00:58You mean your mother.
01:00:59She told me rich people only understand power.
01:01:02She told me if we didn't take, we'd always be invisible.
01:01:04Did your mother tell you to slap Eleanor Wintons?
01:01:06I was young.
01:01:07You were 22.
01:01:08Did your mother tell you to throw away her heart medication?
01:01:11I didn't know what it was.
01:01:12The bottle had her name on it.
01:01:13For context, our team has verified the medication label through the police report.
01:01:17You said you wanted my side.
01:01:19I do.
01:01:19I'm asking questions about your side.
01:01:21I was poor.
01:01:22I was angry.
01:01:23I watched Vivian have everything.
01:01:25And Eleanor Winters had to pay for that anger?
01:01:28You also claimed Vivian framed you.
01:01:31She did.
01:01:32The invoice you presented was generated from an online template site yesterday morning.
01:01:37The account used to create it was linked to your email.
01:01:40You don't understand what it feels like to almost be someone.
01:01:43Someone else.
01:01:44We just received unreleased footage from the Winters Security Archive.
01:01:49What footage?
01:01:51Chloe Carter outside the servant room saying,
01:01:54Old people are easy to scare.
01:01:55Would you like to explain that before we play it?
01:02:11I didn't sign that.
01:02:13Today begins the Carter case.
01:02:16Elder abuse, theft, fraud, forgery, and conspiracy inside one of Beverly Hills' most watched homes.
01:02:21Mrs. Winders, are you nervous?
01:02:24Yes.
01:02:27But I'm more tired of being afraid.
01:02:29This case is not about rich versus poor.
01:02:32It is about trust turned into access, access turned into control, and control turned into
01:02:38thief.
01:02:38My client was a caregiver who became family.
01:02:41Let them use that word.
01:02:42The evidence hates it.
01:02:43Exhibit A.
01:02:44Recovered footage.
01:02:45Linda Carter at the jewelry cabinet before Eleanor Wintas' fall.
01:02:48Exhibit B.
01:02:49Reflection showing Linda Carter pushing Eleanor Wintas.
01:02:51Exhibit C.
01:02:52Chloe Carter striking Eleanor Wintas outside Vivian Wintas prescribed to Eleanor Wintas.
01:02:56Mrs. Winters, why didn't you tell your granddaughter sooner?
01:02:58Because shame is quiet.
01:02:59I thought if I admitted what happened, I would also have to admit I let it happen.
01:03:03But kindness is not consent.
01:03:05Mrs. Winters, is it true you signed documents for Linda Carter before?
01:03:07Is it possible you signed the transfer agreement and forgot?
01:03:10They're using her memory against her.
01:03:11We submit the signed gratitude transfer agreement.
01:03:19I didn't sign that.
01:03:22Can you prove that?
01:03:28Linda told me to sign.
01:03:30Chloe said the signature looked close enough.
01:03:33This document shows Mrs. Winters voluntarily granted residential interest to Linda Carter.
01:03:37I didn't sign it.
01:03:38Mrs. Winters, you testified that parts of your memory were unclear.
01:03:40So isn't it possible you simply forgot?
01:03:44Objection.
01:03:46Mrs. Wintas, sit down.
01:03:48Your counsel may object.
01:03:49Objection.
01:03:50Argument of exploitive.
01:03:50Sustain.
01:03:51The state calls Dr. Helen Morris, forensic handwriting expert.
01:03:56Dr. Morris, please summarize your conclusion.
01:03:58The signature is a simulation.
01:04:00It imitates Mrs. Wintas' handwriting but lacks her natural tremor pattern.
01:04:04In plain language?
01:04:04It is forged.
01:04:07Who signed as witness?
01:04:09Ray Dawson.
01:04:10Mr. Dawson, did you witness Eleanor Winters sign this document?
01:04:14No.
01:04:15Then why is your signature there?
01:04:17Linda told me to sign.
01:04:19Chloe said the signature looked close enough.
01:04:21Liar!
01:04:22Order.
01:04:24Order.
01:04:24Chloe copied it from checks.
01:04:25She said old people sign shaky anyway.
01:04:28Mr. Dawson is cooperating for a reduced sentence.
01:04:31He has every reason to lie.
01:04:33I have the original voice messages.
01:04:38What voice messages?
01:04:40The ones Linda sent when Chloe finished the fake signature.
01:04:43She said now Vivian can come home to nothing.
01:04:50You used me too, Ray!
01:04:52Mrs. Carter, sit down.
01:04:53You think I did this alone?
01:04:55Voice message from Linda Carter to Ray Dawson.
01:04:58Sent at 11.42 p.m. eight days before Vivian Winters returned home.
01:05:02Chloe got the signature close enough.
01:05:04Once the old lady signs the rest, Vivian can come home to nothing.
01:05:07Did Chloe know this document was false?
01:05:09Yes.
01:05:10Did Linda Carter plan to pressure Eleanor Winters into signing more documents?
01:05:14Yes.
01:05:15Did you participate?
01:05:18Yes.
01:05:19Mr. Dawson is trying to save himself.
01:05:21I am.
01:05:22But saving myself starts with telling the truth.
01:05:25You used me too, Ray!
01:05:27Mrs. Carter, sit down.
01:05:28You think I did this alone?
01:05:30He drank in that house?
01:05:31Chloe wore those clothes.
01:05:33Everyone wanted something!
01:05:34Don't drag me down with you!
01:05:36You were already down there, sweetheart.
01:05:38Mrs. Winters, is there anything you want the court to know?
01:05:41I wanted to be kind.
01:05:43You made me afraid of my own home.
01:05:45You made me feel foolish for loving people.
01:05:50But I will not let you take kindness from me.
01:05:53Mrs. Winters...
01:05:54I do not forgive you.
01:05:56Court is adjourned until sentencing tomorrow morning.
01:06:02You still don't deserve that life.
01:06:05Maybe not.
01:06:06But I won't steal someone else's to feel better.
01:06:11I didn't even get the house!
01:06:13Failure does not erase intent.
01:06:16After weeks of live streams, leaked documents, recovered footage, and courtroom testimony today.
01:06:20Linda Carter, on charges of elder abuse, theft, fraud, and conspiracy, this court finds you guilty.
01:06:25Chloe Carter, on charges of elder abuse, fraud, forgery, identity misrepresentation, this court finds you guilty.
01:06:30No, no, this can't be happening.
01:06:32Ray Dawson, your cooperation has been considered, but participation has consequences.
01:06:36Restitution will be ordered for stolen property, damages, and financial exploitation of Eleanor Wintons.
01:06:42I didn't even get the house!
01:06:45Failure does not erase intent.
01:06:49Ms. Winters, are you satisfied with the sentence?
01:06:52No sentence repairs what was broken.
01:06:55But consequences matter.
01:06:57Mrs. Winters, what happens now?
01:06:59We go home.
01:07:05Grandma, I forgot what it felt like to be allowed in.
01:07:09You never needed permission.
01:07:11This house needs its family back.
01:07:14Then I'm back.
01:07:15Restitution paperwork is ready.
01:07:18Also, the board withdrew the removal vote.
01:07:20Is that your way of saying I'm still CEO?
01:07:22That's my way of saying you won.
01:07:26Not yet.
01:07:28Winning is making sure Grandma never feels alone in this house again.
01:07:34As my lawyer?
01:07:35No.
01:07:36As my protector?
01:07:37No.
01:07:39Then as what?
01:07:40Henry, our girl came home.
01:07:42I was talking to your grandfather.
01:07:45Tell him I'm sorry I took so long.
01:07:47He would say, you're here now.
01:07:51Sit here.
01:07:52That's your seat.
01:07:53It's our table.
01:07:55To Mrs. Wintons, the strongest woman in Beverly Hills.
01:07:58Agreed.
01:07:59That might be the longest speech you've ever given.
01:08:01I edit it down.
01:08:03Sorry, one last work thing.
01:08:04At dinner?
01:08:05Wintons Group launches Elder Safety Foundation after Carter case.
01:08:09Vivian?
01:08:10No one should be trapped in their own home because they're too kind to ask for help.
01:08:13We're naming it after you.
01:08:15The Eleanor Winters Foundation?
01:08:17If you approve.
01:08:18I approve.
01:08:19You survived the dinner.
01:08:21Barely.
01:08:21You also saved the house, the company, and your grandmother.
01:08:24Sounds efficient.
01:08:26Vivian, your mother asked me to protect you.
01:08:29But I'm asking now for myself to stay.
01:08:33As my lawyer?
01:08:34No.
01:08:34As my protector?
01:08:36No.
01:08:37Then as what?
01:08:38As the man who loves you.
01:08:40That sounds legally risky.
01:08:42I'll disclose everything.
01:08:44Good.
01:08:45Home was never the walls.
01:08:47It's the people who don't steal your place in it.
01:08:49No one takes our home again.
01:08:50Not while I'm here.
01:08:53Winter's house.
01:08:54Home.
